Bad Tenants and Bad Vines in Matthew 21:33-46
In the parable of the vineyard, the tenants are the teachers and elders of Israel, the servants are the prophets and apostles, and the vineyard itself represents the people of Israel. When God's vineyard isn't bearing good fruit, he has two options: uproot the entire vineyard and replant at a later season (See Isaiah 5:1-7.) or evict the tenants and appoint someone else to tend the vineyard in their place.
Although the tenants bear primary responsibility for the vineyard's failure to produce and for their treatment of the Master's servants, the parable of the wheat and tares shows that the individual plants will also be judged in the end. Everyone is responsible to the Master for bearing good fruit, which is obedience to the commandments, summarized by the Son as "Love the Lord your God will all your heart, soul, strength and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself." In other words, be a true disciple of Yeshua, living as he lived.
