SCRIPTURE

"Take up that which is thine, and go thy way; it is my will to give unto this last, even as unto thee." — Matthew 20:14 (ASV)

Take that yours is
By agreement, and go your way; out of my sight, give me no more trouble on this head; which looks like a dismissal from his service, and after privileges;

and was true of many among the Jews, who were only nominal professors, and from whom the Gospel and ordinances of it were taken:

I will give to this last
man that was called, and sent into the vineyard,

even as to you ;
the same outward privileges, besides special grace, and eternal glory, which it looks as if the other had not.
