Matthew 21:39
It is amazing to think that it was the Jews, the very kinsmen of Christ, that rejected him. To the Romans he was not even a person of interest. Indeed, several of the Romans had had a favorable view of him. Pilate was not interested in destroying him. The Jewish leaders had to instigate all of it. What is said in this verse describes the violence and unreasonable attitude of the husbandmen. They had no respect for the heir. And, neither did the Jewish leaders have respect for their Messiah.
