Comments
The parable of a certain man Who planted a vineyard, is similar to what we read in Matthew 21:33-46. Comp. Luke 20:9-19.
The idea of setting an hedge is most likely a wall which is establishing a capitalist property right.
He also digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower. This shows there was a considerable investment which was turned over to a husbandman.[1]
The husbandman is the stewart holding dominion of a trust for the owner.
A long chain of abuses occurs against the owner's representative and eventually they attempt to steaĺ the inheritance[2] from the father by killing the son.
We may see the idea to put to death the rightful heir as a way to inherit what was the Fathers but that often produces the consequences of what is called the Wrath of God. The kingdom of God is from generation to generations.
A test of faith in the "Love" of God is a willingness to sacrifice. Being a believer is both knowing and being like Christ to even die for that faith seeking to save others in real ways. Christ came to show us the way of righteousness which would include a daily ministration of rightly dividing the free bread of charity from house to house through the practice of pure religion.
The early Christians would be put to death for not signing up at the public temples for the free bread of Rome just as the Pharisees sought to put to death this Christ who offered a system of Corban that was an alternative to that which had been offered by Herod and the Pharisees which was "making the word of God to none effect". Understanding the Christian conflict is important.
John the Baptist and the apostles of Jesus had been baptizing the people into that different system of charity that did not rely on forced contributions and the covetous practices nor legal charity of public religion. This would be at the heart of the Christian conflict with Rome and the persecution of the early Church.
V12 and 13 reveals that they knew Jesus spoke of them and their apostasy.
V14 Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
V15-16 This image and superscription was a form idolatry according to the doctrines of the Pharisees. 
Why did they owe Caesar?
The truth was they owed the tribute because they had made contracts and covenants with Caesar, and had and were taking his dainties and were now therefore snared.
They had not only been slothful in the way of the Father in heaven but had taken up with the fathers of the earth. They were not only eating at their tables but had instituted their own system of Corban which was entangling them in a yoke of bondage. And yet they were blind to their own folly. V25 They did not understand the resurrection.
The modern Christians with their own blind guides are doing much the same today with their own covetous practices, their Contracts, Covenants, and Constitutions, and desire for the reward of unrighteousness. But they are blind because they too sit in darkness. They fail to repent and find their comfort in their own imagination and the doctrines of men.
If people are not loving their neighbor then they are not keeping the Primary command. Jesus points this out as we see him speak of the widow.
Oppression and affliction
"20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.[3]21 Thou shalt neither vex[4] a stranger, nor oppress[5][6] him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry; And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless." Exodus 22:22 - 24
Governing mankind and his mind or soul[7]
Caesar was the Patronus of the empire of Rome and Son of God as a mighty provider instead of the LORD[8]
“Some scholars regard the ancient confederation of Hebrew tribes that endured in Palestine from the 15th century BC until a monarchy was established about 1020 BC as an embryonic republic. That would make the ancient Israelite commonwealth the earliest republic in history....”[9] A Republic is neither a democracy nor an indirect democracy.
Questions
What did it mean to regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth?
Are you conforming to the doctrines of men or the doctrine of Jesus?
Are you a doer of the word or under a strong delusion?
Have you repented like we were called to do according to the Gospel of Christ?[10]
To you seek the righteousness of God or the reward of unrighteousness?

“The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” Plutarch

The Vineyard and the Husbandman

[1] And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen[1], and went into a far country.

[2] And at the season he sent to the Husbandman[1] a servant[11], that he might receive from the husbandmen[1] of the fruit of the vineyard.

Beat the bondsman

[3] And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.

Wounded the bondsman

[4] And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.

Kill the bondsman

[5] And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.

[6] Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.

Kills the son

[7] But those husbandmen[1] said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance[2] shall be ours.

[8] And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

What shall be done

[9] What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen[1], and will give the vineyard unto others.

[10] And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:

[11] This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

They sought to kill

[12] And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way.

[13] And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

A trap

[14] And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

[15] Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.

[16] And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

Render what is owed

[17] And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.

Resurrection

[18] Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

[19] Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

[20] Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

[21] And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise.

[22] And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.

[23] In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

The err

[24] And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

[25] For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

God of the living

[26] And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

[27] He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.

Primary command

[28] And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment[12] of all?

[29] And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

[30] And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart[13], and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

[31] And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.[14] There is none other commandment greater than these.

[32] And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

[33] And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself,[14] is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

[34] And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.

[35] And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the Son of David?

[36] For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

[37] David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

[38] And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,

[39] And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:

[40] Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.

Judged by the treasury

[41] And Jesus sat over against [15] the treasury,[16] and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury[16]: and many that were rich cast in much.

[42] And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.

[43] And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:[16]

[44] For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.

  7. "Augustus was sensible that mankind is governed by names; nor was he deceived in his expectation, that the senate and people would submit to slavery, provided they were respectfully assured that they still enjoyed their ancient freedom. A feeble senate and enervated people cheerfully acquiesced in the pleasing illusion, as long as it was supported by the virtue, or even by the prudence, of the successors of Augustus. It was a motive of self-preservation, not a principle of liberty, that animated the conspirators against Caligula, Nero, and Domitian. They attacked the person of the tyrant, without aiming their blow at the authority of the emperor.

  8. "The annual Temple-tribute was allowed to be transported to Jerusalem, and the alienation of these funds by the civil magistrates treated as sacrilege. As the Jews objected to bear arms, or march, on the Sabbath, they were freed from military service. On similar grounds, they were not obliged to appear in courts of law on their holy days. Augustus even ordered that, when the public distribution of corn or of money among the citizens fell on a Sabbath, the Jews were to receive their share on the following day. In a similar spirit the Roman authorities confirmed a decree by which the founder of Antioch, Seleucus I. (Nicator),[d Ob.280 B.C.] had granted the Jews the right of citizenship in all the cities of Asia Minor and Syria which he had built, and the privilege of receiving, instead of the oil that was distributed, which their religion forbade them to use, [e Ab. Sar ii. 6] an equivalent in money. (Jos.Ant. xii. 3. 1) These rights were maintained by Vespasian and Titus even after the last Jewish war, notwithstanding the earnest remonstrances of these cities. No wonder, that at the death of Caesar [g 44 B.C.] the Jews of Rome gathered for many nights, waking strange feelings of awe in the city, as they chanted in mournful melodies their Psalms around the pyre on which the body of their benefactor had been burnt, and raised their pathetic dirges."
