Reading for January 14th
Read Mark 12.1-12 (Mt 21.33-46; Lk 20.9-19) The parable of the vineyard.
In Isa 5.1-7 the vineyard represents Israel.
In verse 6 beloved son echoes the baptism (1.11) and transfiguration (9.7).
In verse 7 a reference to the cross is unavoidable.
In verse 10 cites Ps 118.22-23 (Septuagint).
The chief priests, scribes, and elders recognize they are the "tenants."
