SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 12:1–12: Jesus told a parable about some evil grape farmers

In 11:28 the Jewish religious leaders asked Jesus two questions about his authority. In this section Jesus used a parable to answer those question in an indirect way. The Jewish leaders showed that they understood this parable by the way they responded in 12:12.

Jesus’ parable was about a man who owned a grape farm. He told some men to farm it for him and to give him a share of the profit. However, the men refused to give the owner his share. They even mistreated his servants who came to collect the money. When the owner sent his own son, they killed him.

Jesus used the people in the parable to represent the Jewish religious leaders and their actions toward God and toward himself, God’s son. Here are the most likely meanings of the different people and things in the parable:See Ray Summers, Commentary on Luke: Jesus, the Universal Savior, 1972, on the parallel passage in Luke 20:9–19.

The owner of the grape farm

represents

God

The grape farm

represents

Israel and its people

The grape farmers

represent

the Jewish religious leaders

The servants

represent

God’s messengers or prophets

The son

represents

Jesus

It is good to translate this section before you decide on a heading for it.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

The parable of the vineyard and its farmers

The Parable of the Tenants in the Vineyard (GNT)

There are parallel passages for this section in Matthew 21:33–46 and Luke 20:9–19.

12:11

This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”

This is from the Lord: This statement means that God is the one who took the rejected stone and made it the most important one in the building.

Lord: The Greek word that the BSB translates as Lord means “master” or “the one who has authority over others.” Here in 12:11 it refers to God. It is a translation of God’s personal name in Hebrew.

Here are some other ways to translate Lord:

Master/Chief

Ruler

In some languages people may not naturally use a word that means “master” to refer to God. If speakers of your language do not understand that your word for “Lord” refers to God in this context, here are other ways to translate it:

If you include the word for God in your translation of Lord, you may want to include a footnote to give the literal Greek meaning. For example:

Here the Greek text is literally “Lord.”

See Lord, Context 2, in the Glossary.

and it is marvelous in our eyes: The word marvelous means “amazing and wonderful.” Both Jesus and the person who wrote Psalm 118 referred here to what God had done to the stone that represented the Messiah. People were amazed that God did something great with something that men considered worthless. The one whom the Jews rejected as Messiah was the one whom God appointed as Messiah.

in our eyes: This means “as we understand it” or “in our judgment.” It does not refer to literally seeing it with the eyes. The NCV has another way to say this:

it is wonderful to us

uW Translation Notes:

παρὰ Κυρίου ἐγένετο αὕτη

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: παρά Κυρίου ἐγένετο αὕτη καί ἐστίν θαυμαστή ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν)

Alternate translation: [The Lord has caused this]

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν

in eyes ˱of˲_us

Here, eyes represent a person’s judgement or evaluation. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [in our opinion] or [from our perspective]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

12:1-12 The events of 11:27–12:44 all take place in the Temple (see 11:27; 13:1). This story (literally parable) is intimately tied to the previous question about Jesus’ authority (11:27-33) by the introductory words, Then Jesus began teaching them. This parable is an extended reply by Jesus to the religious leaders.
• Jesus intended his audience to interpret this parable in light of Isa 5:1-7, a similar story of someone planting a vineyard, building a lookout tower, putting a fence around the vineyard, and digging a pit for a wine vat. A similar question is asked: What do you suppose the owner of the vineyard will do? (Mark 12:9; cp. Isa 5:4). Isaiah specifically identifies the vineyard as the people of Israel (Isa 5:7); Jesus’ hearers and Mark’s readers would similarly have understood the present story as an allegory about the Israelites. Other details in the story are also clearly meant to be interpreted allegorically: The tenants represent the leaders of Israel; the owner represents God; the servants represent the Old Testament prophets; the beloved son represents Jesus, the Son of God; the murder of the son represents Jesus’ crucifixion; and the giving of the vineyard to others represents the judgment coming upon Israel (Mark 11:15-17; 13:1-37). The interpretation would have been more clear to Mark’s readers than to Jesus’ original audience, but the religious leaders who were Jesus’ contemporaries understood it clearly enough that they sought to kill him (12:12).
