But He (Jesus) said to him, “A man was giving a big dinner
and he invited many, and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those
who had been invited, ‘Come; for everything is ready now.’ But they all alike began to make
excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I
have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please
consider me excused.’ … And the slave
came back and reported this to the master. Then the head of the household
became angry and said to his slave, ‘Go out at once into the streets and lanes
of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame….”
Luke 14:16-21
