Context of Luke 20:10
8And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things. 9And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country for a long time. And in the season he sent to the husbandmen a bondman, that they might give to him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen, having beaten him, sent [him] away empty. 11And again he sent another bondman; but they, having beaten him also, and cast insult upon him, sent [him] away empty. 12And again he sent a third; and they, having wounded him also, cast [him] out.
