Word of the Day - 12/18/2008

Laird

A laird is a landed proprietor.

Jesus told a parable about a laird who planted a vineyard and sent servants to procure his produce only to have one after the other murdered. (Matthew 21:33-46)

"Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who PLANTED A VINEYARD AND PUT A WALL AROUND IT AND DUG A WINE PRESS IN IT, AND BUILT A TOWER, and rented it out to vine-growers and went on a journey. (Matthew 21:33, NASB)
