Ida Hyang Yesus raris ngandika ring anake akeh antuk pangande sapuniki: “Ada anak agung madue abian anggur. Abiane ento kapagehin makaileh tur kagaenang tongos meres buah anggur. Buina masih kajujukang reranggon tongos mondokin. Suba keto abiane ento lantas patanduang ida teken anak tani di desane ento. Ida laut lunga nura desa.
What Does This Mean?
Jesus begins telling a parable about a man who planted a vineyard, protected it, and then leased it to others while he was away. This story highlights themes of responsibility and stewardship.
Explained for Children
Imagine you have a garden that grows yummy fruits. You build fences around it for protection and leave it with your friends when you go on vacation. The parable teaches us about taking care of what we're given, just like looking after the plants in your garden.
Historical Background
Mark, one of Jesus' disciples, wrote this account. It was likely written between 65-70 AD for a Gentile audience. In that time, vineyards were important assets and parables were used to convey deeper spiritual lessons through everyday scenarios.
Living It Out Today
In today’s context, think about how we manage our responsibilities at work or in our community. Just like the man who trusted his workers with the vineyard, God entrusts us with resources and tasks that require our care and attention.
