21:33-46 In this story Jesus draws on Isa 5:1-7. The people of Israel who rejected God’s Messiah forfeited the privilege of being God’s people. The Christian community, comprised of both Jews and Gentiles, has now been called to be the people of God (cp. Rom 9:4-8; 11:1-12).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parables
ἄλλην παραβολὴν ἀκούσατε: ἄνθρωπος ἦν
another parable hear /a/_man was
To teach the chief priests and the elders, Jesus offers a story or illustration. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Now listen to this story: There was a man”
Note 2 topic: writing-participants
ἄνθρωπος ἦν οἰκοδεσπότης, ὅστις
/a/_man was /a/_home_owner who
Matthew is using the phrase There was a man, a landowner to introduce this person into the story. If your language has its own way of introducing new participants, you could use it here in your translation. Alternate translation: “A man, a landowner,”
Note 3 topic: translate-unknown
φραγμὸν
/a/_fence
A hedge is a thick wall made out of busy plants that were planted close together. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of wall, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: “a wall made of bushes” or “wall of plants”
Note 4 topic: translate-unknown
ἐξέδετο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς
rented_out it ˱to˲_tenant_farmers
As the rest of the story shows, the man rented the vineyard not for regular cash payments but under an arrangement that entitled him to a share of the crop in exchange for the use of the land. If an arrangement like that would not be familiar to your readers, you could translate this in a way that explains it. Alternate translation: “allowed some farmers to use it in exchange for a share of the crop”
