"Tell those who have been invited: Look, my banquet is all prepared, my oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, everything is ready. Come to the wedding." (Matthew 22: 4)
The invited guests were given a timely reminder of the wedding feast. They chose to ignore the invitation and the reminder. Each had his convenient excuse.

This is a mysterious and said trait in human character.
"I have made a promise before Yahweh which I cannot retract." (Judges 11: 35)

Jephthah kept the vows he had made to Yahweh. May the Holy Spirit remind us of all the vows we have made to Yahweh.
"You too go into my vineyard." (Matthew 20: 7)
In the vineyard, there is much work to be done. The owner of the vineyard pays a fair wages to all the workers. The Lord Jesus is a generous employer.
