Mark 12:2

Context
12:2 At harvest time he sent a slave 1  to the tenants to collect from them 2  his portion of the crop. 3 

1 tn See the note on the word “slave” in 10:44.

sn This slave (along with the others) represent the prophets God sent to the nation, who were mistreated and rejected.

2 tn Grk “from the tenants,” but this is redundant in English, so the pronoun (“them”) was used in the translation.

3 tn Grk “from the fruits of the vineyard.”
