<p>21:30&nbsp;<em>And he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered and said: I go sir</em>- Literally, &quot;I, Sir&quot;. The suggestion is that he was presenting himself as more obedient and respectful than his brother. And yet as so often, those who consider themselves the longer and harder workers in the vineyard, feeling superior to their weaker brothers, are in fact less than them in practice. Surely the Lord had in mind Ex. 24:7: &quot;All that the Lord hath said will we do, and be obedient&quot;.</p><p><em>But did not go</em>- In the parable of the two sons, the Lord divides us into two groups- those who respond to a calling to &lsquo;go&rsquo; by saying they will, but don&rsquo;t go; and those who refuse to go but afterwards go. This is clearly an allusion to Jonah. But Jonah is thus made typical of each and every one of us.&nbsp;</p>
