Context of Mark 12:11

9What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants, and will give the vineyard to others. 10Have you not even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders regarded as unworthy and rejected, This [very stone] has become the chief Cornerstone This came about from the Lord, And it is marvelous and wonderful in our eyes’?” 12And they were looking for a way to seize Him, but they were afraid of the crowd; for they knew that He spoke this parable in reference to [and as a charge against] them. And so they left Him and went away. 13Then they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Jesus in order to trap Him into making a statement [that they could use against Him].
