The Wedding Banquet

Mattityahu 22:1–14

What Yeshua is saying

A king's invited guests refuse the wedding feast; he sends servants to bring in everyone from the streets — but one comes without a wedding garment.

The explanation

The first invitation went to those who claimed the table by birthright, and they declined. The Father then opens the doors to anyone who will come. But there is a garment — a wedding garment — that He provides and expects worn. Many are called, few are chosen: the choosing is real, and so is the garment.
