Ampelon denotes a cultivated vineyard, depicted as a place for planting, work, fruit, and stewardship.

The term consistently denotes a cultivated vineyard: a place planted and equipped, worked by laborers or farmers, expected to yield fruit, and placed under an owner's oversight. Its forms occur in clauses about entering or working in it, receiving its fruit, being cast out of it, and giving it to others.

Senses in use

  1. Cultivated vineyard under work and oversight · dominant

    The noun identifies the planted agricultural property in scenes of labor and management. In Matthew 20:2 the accusative singular stands in the clause sending workers into it, while in Matthew 21:33 the APB renders a property that is planted, fenced, furnished with a winepress and tower, and leased to farmers; Luke 20:10 presents its fruit as due from those farmers.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB regularly presents the term as “vineyard,” including settings of workers entering it, fruit being sought or received, and farmers leasing it. These renderings are confirmed by the clauses and supplied noun forms rather than treated as a separate lexical range.
