This parable is yet one another confirmation of prophet Muhammad pbuh.
So yeah let's explain ?
Full parable :
33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:
34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.
37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.
39 And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
46 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet. - Matthew 21:33-46 (King James Version).
The commentry :
To understand it better u have to see it as follows, the landowner as a metaphor for God, the vineyard as a metaphor for God's Law, the wall around it refers to that which God prohibited in the Law, the wine-press is a metaphor for the pleasures that are permitted in the Law. The husbandmen who rented the vineyard refers to the Jews. The servants who were sent repeatedly to the tenants to collect the fruits are God's prophets. The son of the landowner is a metaphor for Jesus, who is considered by Muslims to be one of the highly esteemed prophets.
The stone the builders rejected is seen as a metaphor for Muhammad. And the quote here "Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed" clearly fits the description of Muhammad who triumphed during his life-time over all his enemies and against all odds.
The verse, ''Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof"
So it is clear the kingdom of God will now be taken from Jews and given to a new nation altogether.
And that nation was Islam. They didn't kill their prophet rather they accepted him and hence did bring forth the fruits.
Hence prophecy of Jesus was fulfilled.
Concerning the following verse, "But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet".
U will be astonished to find out they Jews were waiting for prophet muhammad pbuh in city of medina to do away with him like they had done with all servants before, that is to kill him. But here they failed and were defeated rather he was already taken prophet by multitude of people and hence he triumphed.
And hence these wicked tenants were defeated finally and Gods promise came true.
And the following verse, "Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?"
Well there is a narration from prophet Muhammad pbuh himself that corroborates this,
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "My similitude in comparison with the other prophets before me, is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go about it and wonder at its beauty, but say: 'Would that this brick be put in its place!' So I am that brick, and I am the Seal of the Prophets."

Allah's Apostle said, "My similitude in comparison with the other prophets before me, is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go about it and wonder at its beauty, but say: 'Would that this brick be put in its place!' So I am that brick, and I am the Seal of the Prophets."
- Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Virtues and Merits of the Prophet and his Companions, Chapter: The Seal of all the Prophets, Hadith number: 44
You can bear fruit by serving God. But if you want to an ilustration also in on of The Parables of Jesus. He says he is The True Wine and we are the branches. And if we make disciples another branch comes out of the original one andbears it's own fruit well this parable it meant to explain that we can't do anything without Him and a branch outaide wine is dead. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing
the vineyard is ancient IsraEL.
Which winepress do you mean?
The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. You need to have God's Spirit in you and stay connected to Jesus to produce this fruit. To get God's Spirit, you have to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
The vineyard represents Israel (the people that the Pharisees and Chief Priests were supposed to be looking after). It was the job of the Pharisees and Chief Priests to make sure the people of Israel were following God, but the Pharisees and Chief Priests would not listen to God. We have to make sure we are not like these religious leaders and make sure we ARE producing fruit.
What Vineyard means in the parable of the tenants???
In the commentary of many scholars, the vineyard is representative of the world -
Makes me cry that he knew he was going to go through what he did and knowing before and what a way to share things he is very clever Jesus that is.🙏🏽 th-cam.com/video/eZGjLXMWfuo/w-d-xo.html
You named the rights name, but you failed to name the unbelieving Jews .
Pharisees: any Jew who deny Jesus.
May be correct... But Jesus talked about Pharisees who had the authority(like the farmers). Yes it can also be applicable nowadays for those who reject Jesus.
Thank you for not using this parable to teach replacement theology.
