In context
1 And Jesus answering, spoke again in parables to them, saying:
2 The kingdom of heaven is likened to a king who made a marriage for his son.
3 And he sent his servants to call them that were invited to the marriage: and they would not come.
4 Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell them that were invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my beeves and fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come ye to the marriage.
5 But they neglected and went their ways, one to his farm and another to his merchandise.
