From the series "Gospel of Matthew." The upside down reality of the Kingdom of Heaven is that it is marked by grace and justice. The two collide and are defined for the apprentice of Jesus in the Parable of the workers in the Vineyard. In this parable he reiterates a central tenant of life in the Kingdom; that the last will be first.
