By many illustrations and repeated warnings, Jesus showed what would be the result to the Jews of rejecting the Son of God. In these words He was addressing all in every age who refuse to receive Him as their Redeemer. Every warning is for them. The desecrated temple, the disobedient son, the false husbandmen, the contemptuous builders, have their counterpart in the experience of every sinner. Unless he repent, the doom which they foreshadowed will be his.

Ved mange billeder og gentagne advarsler viste Jesus, hvad der ville blive følgen af, at jøderne vragede Guds Søn. Gennem disse ord henvendte han sig til alle de mennesker til alle tider, som nægter at modtage ham som deres Frelser. Hver eneste advarsel gælder dem. Det vanhelligede tempel, den ulydige søn, de utro vingårdsmænd, bygningsmændene, der vragede stenen, finder deres sidestykke i enhver synders erfaringer. Hvis han ikke omvender sig, vil den dom, som de varsler, ramme ham.
