Parables of Jesus Book 6

Parable of the Two Sons

Matthew 21:28-32

Jesus put another parable to them and said, “A man had two sons and he went to the first and said, Go and cultivate grapes in my vineyard.”

“And the first said, I will not go. But then he changed his mind and went to work in the vineyard.”

“To the other, he said, Go and work in my vineyard, but the son came back and said he went but he didn’t.”

“Which of them did their father’s will?” Jesus asked them.

And they answered him, “The first son.”

Jesus replied, “In truth, I tell you that the sinners and the prostitutes enter the kingdom of God before you do.”
