Christ's Vineyard, The Church
Most commentators see this verse as an allegory for Christ and the church. In this view, Solomon represents Christ, the vineyard is the church, and the 'keepers' are ministers and believers. The 'fruit' they are to produce is spiritual growth and new believers, which brings value and glory to Christ, the owner of the vineyard.
