If you go back to Mark 11:27, the passage that precedes Mark 12 makes it clear who his audience was. The chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders asked him, "By what authority are you doing these things?" In response he first asked, "John's baptism-was it from heaven, or from men? Tell me!" They were not able to respond to him because they did not want to admit that John the Baptist had spoken the truth about Jesus, or denounce him in front of their followers who loved John.

Jesus' purpose was to illustrate to all the sins that this group was committing and that their ancestors committed. In the parable, the owner of the vineyard represents God, the vineyard represents the status of being his people, and the tenants represent many of the Jews. Each servant represents a prophet sent to the Jews to communicate to them from God and express his wishes. Almost all of them were eventually killed by those who did not want to follow the Lord, just as in the parable.

So God sent his son, Jesus to them. However, as the parable illustrates, they eventually decide that they want to kill him also that they may be simply left alone. So that is what they did. The parable is not focused on the son but on what happens to the tenants, and so that is why his resurrection is not mentioned.

The parables ends with what happens to the tenants who refused to listen to any of the messengers. In the end, they are killed and sent out. In the same way, all who tried to take part in God's family and be God's people but are not willing to follow him will lose the status they wished to gain. He quotes, "The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone," because that is what was happening. They were rejecting Jesus, but he was actually the most important of all.

Do navy seals carry 50 cals?

Yes Navy SEAL snipers sometimes carry .50 cals. But in reality they are usually using something alot smaller and easier to carry such as a Mk11, Mk12, or more commonly the .300 Win Mag. The .50 is just too heavy and bulky.

Which city would be best for you to work as a graphic designer?

In a midsize town that's underserved by graphic designers. Most people think of one of three places--New York, LA and MAYBE Chicago. Stay out of all three. They're fine locations if you buy graphics, but if you create them...hoo boy. There are eleven million people in the city of New York and one million of them are doing freelance graphics out of their apartments. If you were to go to...oh, say Watertown, NY, and put out your shingle you could do pretty well. Now understand: the smaller the community is, the more things you need to do to be successful in this business. If you live in Seattle, you can get by with just knowing how to work in Adobe Creative Suite. Seattle's got plenty of copywriters, photographers, hair stylists, makeup artists, photo stylists and so on. If you live in a smaller community you're going to have to take on many of those responsibilities yourself, and you need a reliable car because many of your jobs will be in other towns. You'll also need to consider the KINDS of clients you'll be taking on. I know a man who designs in Goldsboro, NC. Two of the biggest jobs he runs every year are flyers for Christmas gift packs for a pickle company, and a rack card for a meat market. There is no "best." Pentagram has a main office in New York. Duffy & Partners are headquartered in Minneapolis. MK12 is in Kansas City. Just look for your favorite firms and find their headquarters. You'll find great work happening even in the most rural areas of America.
