### Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: In the Parable of the Tenants, Jesus predicts that the Son (representing himself) will be cast out and murdered by the farmers (representing the religious leadership).
*Historical context*: Theologians and historians identify this as a prediction of Jesus' crucifixion, which took place 'outside the gate' of Jerusalem, as noted in [[Heb-13#v12|Hebrews 13:12]].
*Related to*:
### He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: Jesus foretells the divine judgment and destruction of the religious authorities who rejected him, and the transfer of stewardship to a new group (often interpreted as the Gentiles or the Church).
*Historical context*: This is historically linked to the Siege of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Second Temple by Roman forces in 70 AD, which effectively ended the power of the Sadducees and the temple-based leadership.
*Related to*:
### 'The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone?'
*Type*: fulfillment
*Summary*: Jesus quotes and applies a Messianic prophecy to himself, indicating that despite being rejected by the Jewish leaders ('the builders'), he will become the foundational stone of God's work.
*Historical context*: This fulfills [[Ps-118#v22|Psalm 118:22]]. Early Christian leaders later used this specific text to explain Jesus' rejection and subsequent exaltation through the Resurrection ([[Acts-04#v11|Acts 4:11]]; [[1 Pet-02#v7|1 Peter 2:7]]).
*Related to*: [[Ps-118#v22|Psalm 118:22]]
### Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: Jesus predicts the catastrophic consequences and judgment for those who oppose or reject him, describing himself as a stone of judgment.
*Historical context*: This refers to the destruction of those who rejected Jesus' authority, often associated with the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD and final eschatological judgment in Christian theology.
*Related to*:
### But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. For they can't die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: Jesus provides a specific prediction about the nature of human existence following the resurrection: it will be immortal, non-biological in social structure (no marriage), and angelic in nature.
*Historical context*: In Christian theology, this remains a future prediction concerning the 'New Heaven and New Earth' or the final state of believers after the general resurrection.
*Related to*:
### 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
*Type*: fulfillment
*Summary*: Jesus cites David's prophecy to demonstrate that the Messiah is not merely a human descendant but David's divine Lord who is destined for supreme exaltation.
*Historical context*: This fulfills [[Ps-110#v1|Psalm 110:1]]. The New Testament writers consistently identify the Ascension of Jesus and his seating at the right hand of God as the historical fulfillment of this prophecy ([[Acts-02#v34|Acts 2:34]]-36; [[Heb-01#v13|Hebrews 1:13]]).
*Related to*: [[Ps-110#v1|Psalm 110:1]]
