Text Allegoriae quaedam sanctae Scripturae uel De nominibus legis et euangelii (601 - 700) Isidore of Seville
Quotation Duo filii missi ad operandum vineam duorum populorum typum demonstrant. Primus enim missus vocatur gentium populus per naturae intelligentiam ad operis divini culturam, qui prius tamen contumax exstitit, et sese iturum negavit. Adveniente autem Domino, priorem contumaciam sequente emundat obedientia.
Translation The two sons sent to work on the vineyard represent two types of people. The first one sent is the people of nations, who is called to the understanding of nature and the cultivation of divine work, who at first shows himself full of contempt and refuses to go. But when the Lord comes, he rejects his previous contempt and turns to obedience.
