Living_Oracles(i)
1 Jesus continuing to discourse to them in parables, said,
2 The Administration of Heaven resembles the conduct of a king, who having made a marriage feast for his son,
3 sent his servants to call them, who had been invited; but they would not come.
4 Then he sent other servants, saying, Tell those who are invited I have prepared my feast; my bullocks and fatlings are slain, and all is ready; come to the marriage.
5 But they turned away with indifference, one to his farm, another to his merchandize.
6 And the rest seizing his servants, abused and killed them.
7 When the king heard this, being enraged, he sent his soldiers, destroyed those murderers, and burnt their city.
8 Then he said to his servants, The entertainment is ready; but they who were invited were not worthy:
9 go therefore, into the public roads, and all that you can find, invited to the marriage.
10 Accordingly they went into the highways, and assembled all that they found, good and bad, so that the hall was furnished with guests.
