This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
16. ἄνθρωπός τις ἐποίει δεῖπνον μέγα. The difference between this parable and that of the King’s Supper (Mat 22:1-10) will be clear to any one who will read them side by side. He who gives the invitation is God. Psa 25:6.
καὶ ἐκάλεσεν πολλούς. This implies the breadth and ultimate universality of the Gospel message. But as yet the “many” are the Jews, who (in the first application) are indicated by those who refuse.
