Mark 12:4
King James VersionSource notes
“And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded in the head, and sent away shamefully handled.”
Context
1And he began to speak unto them by parables. A man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about and digged the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.
2And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
3And they caught and beat him, and sent away empty.
4And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded in the head, and sent away shamefully handled.
5And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.
6Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
7But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
