Jesus uses a vineyard as a metaphor to describe the New Jerusalem and eternity. St. Augustine said that, for the workers in the parable, they all received the same pay because eternity is incapable of being subdivided. So what is the eternal City of God?

The New Jerusalem and the Vineyard

“If other ages felt less, they saw more, even though they saw with the blind, prophetical, unsentimental eye of acceptance, which is to say, of faith. In the absence of this faith now, we govern by tenderness. It is a tenderness which, long cut off from the person of Christ, is wrapped in theory. When tenderness is detached from the source of tenderness, its logical outcome is terror. It ends in forced-labor camps and in the fumes of the gas chamber.” - Flannery O’Connor, A Memoir of Mary Ann
