This final parable taught in Matthew's scene in the Jerusalem temple is one that describes the Kingdom of Heaven as a GRAND wedding feast given by the king. This time, it is not a master of a house and vineyard at the center of the story. Now we have a king. While this narrative is compelling, its message is very clear in Matthew 22:14. 

"For many are called, but few are chosen." [Matthew 22:14]
