Usage: The term "ampelón" refers to a vineyard, a place where grapevines are cultivated. In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to represent Israel, the people of God, or the Kingdom of God. Vineyards were significant in ancient agrarian societies, symbolizing abundance, blessing, and the fruitfulness expected from God's people. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, vineyards were a common and vital part of agriculture, providing grapes for wine, a staple in the diet and an important element in religious rituals. The care of a vineyard required significant labor and attention, making it a fitting metaphor for God's relationship with His people. The imagery of the vineyard is deeply rooted in the Old Testament, where Israel is often depicted as God's vineyard (e.g., Isaiah 5:1-7).
