And he began to speak with them in similitudes. A certain man planted a vineyard and enclosed it with a hedge, and dug in it a winepress, and built a tower in it, and handed it over to laborers, and went far away.

And he began to speak with them in similitudes. A certain man planted a vineyard and enclosed it with a hedge, and dug in it a winepress, and built a tower in it, and handed it over to laborers, and went far away.
܀
And he sent his servant to the laborers at the season, that he might take from the fruits of the vineyard.
܀
But they beat him and sent him away empty.
܀
And he sent again to them another servant; and him also they stoned and wounded and sent him away in shame.
܀
And he sent again another, and him they killed. And he sent many other servants, and of them they beat, and of them they killed.
܀
But at the last he had one beloved son, and he sent him to them afterward; for he said, Perhaps they will be ashamed before my son.
܀
But those laborers said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
܀
And they took him and killed him and cast him out of the vineyard.
܀
What then will the master of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those laborers, and give the vineyard to others.
܀
And have you not even read this writing: The stone that the builders rejected has become the head of the corner.
܀
From Master YHWH was this, and it is wonderful in our eyes.
܀
And they were seeking to seize him, and they feared the people, for they knew that he spoke this parable against them. And they left him and went away.
܀
And they sent to him some from the scribes and from the house of Herod, to trap him in a word.
܀
And they came and asked him: Teacher, we know that you are true, and you do not take concern for anyone, for you do not look on the face of the sons of men, but in truth you teach the way of Elohim. Is it lawful to give the head-tax to Caesar, or not? Shall we give, or shall we not give?
܀
But he knew their craftiness and said to them: Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see.
܀
And they brought one to him. He said to them: Whose is this image and this inscription? And they said: Caesar's.
܀
Y'shua said to them: What is Caesar's, give to Caesar, and what is Elohim's, give to Elohim. And they wondered at him.
܀
And Sadducees came to him, those who say there is no resurrection, and they were asking him and saying:
܀
Teacher, Moshe wrote to us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife and leaves no children, his brother is to take his wife and raise up seed for his brother.
܀
There were seven brothers. The first took a wife and died and left no seed.
܀
And the second took her and died, and he also left no seed, and the third likewise.
܀
And the seven of them took her and left no seed. Last of all of them the woman also died.
܀
In the resurrection, then, of which of them will she be the wife? For the seven of them took her.
܀
Y'shua said to them, Is it not because of this that you err, that you do not know the writings, nor the power of Elohim?
܀
For when they rise from the dead, they do not take wives, nor do wives become joined to husbands; but they are like the messengers who are in heaven.
܀
But concerning the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moshe, how from the bush Elohim said to him: I am the Elohim of Avraham, and the Elohim of Yitz'chak, and the Elohim of Ya'akov?
܀
And he is not Elohim of the dead, but of the living. You therefore err greatly.
܀
And one of the scribes came near and heard them disputing, and saw that he answered them well, and asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?
܀
Y'shua said to him: The first of all the commandments is: Hear, Yisrael; Master YHWH our Elohim, Master YHWH is one.
܀
And you shall love Master YHWH your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment.
܀
And the second, which is like it, is: You will love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.
܀
The scribe said to him, Well said, Rabbi. You have spoken the truth, that he is one, and there is no other besides him.
܀
And that a person love him with all the heart and with all the mind and with all the soul and with all the strength, and love his neighbor as himself, is more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.
܀
But Y'shua saw that he answered the word wisely; he answered and said to him: You are not far from the kingdom of Elohim. And no one dared again to question him.
܀
And Y'shua answered and said while teaching in the temple: How do the scribes say that the Mashiyach is the son of Dawid?
܀
For Dawid himself said by the Ruach haKodesh: Master YHWH said to my Master, Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies as a footstool under your feet.
܀
Dawid therefore calls him my Master; and how is he his son? And all the crowd was hearing him gladly.
܀
And in his teaching he was saying to them, Watch out for the scribes who want to walk in robes and love greetings in the marketplace,
܀
and the chief seats in the synagogues and the chief couches at feasts.
܀
They devour the houses of widows under the pretext that they lengthen their prayers. These will receive a greater judgment.
܀
And as Y'shua sat opposite the treasury, he was watching how the crowd cast money into the treasury. And many rich ones were casting in much.
܀
And one poor widow came and cast in two mites, which are a shamuna.
܀
And Y'shua called his disciples and said to them, Amen I say to you that this poor widow has cast into the treasury more than all the people who are casting.
܀
For they all cast in from what abounded to them, but she from her poverty has cast in all that she had, her whole property.
