The parable about the reluctant dinner guests

14:15 The parable about the reluctant dinner guests

(Mat. 22:1-10)

15Now one of the people at the meal heard all this and commented, “Blessed is anyone who gets to have a meal in God’s kingdom.”

16But Yeshua responded, “There was a home-owner who was putting on a large dinner and invited many people. 17When the meal was ready, he sent out his slave to go and tell everyone who’d been invited, ‘Come over now because the food is ready.’ 18However they all started giving excuses. The first one said, ‘I bought a field and I need to go and inspect it. Please excuse me.’ 19Another one said, ‘I’ve bought five pairs of oxen and I need to check them out. Please excuse me.’ 20Yet another said, ‘I just got married so I can’t really come.’ 21So when the slave got back, he reported all this to his master. The home-owner got angry and told the slave, ‘Well then, hurry out into the roads and streets of the city and bring back the poor and crippled and blind and lame people.’ 22When he’d done that, the slave said, ‘Master, I’ve done what you instructed and there’s still room at the table.’ 23So the master instructed him, ‘Well go along the roads and fences and force them to come so that my house will fill up, 24because I’m telling you that none of those invited guests will get a taste of this meal of mine.’
