Context of Mark 12:5

3But they took him, and beat [him], and sent [him] away empty. 4And again he sent to them another bondman; and [at] him they [threw stones, and] struck [him] on the head, and sent [him] away with insult. And [again] he sent another, and him they killed; and many others, beating some and killing some. 6Having yet therefore one beloved son, he sent also him to them the last, saying, They will have respect for my son. 7But those husbandmen said to one another, This is the heir: come, let us kill him and the inheritance will be ours.
