Exegesis
The aorist apesteilen {ἀπέστειλεν | a-pé-stei-len} introduces the main narrative action, with pros {πρὸς | pròs} plus the accusative phrase tous geōrgous {τοὺς γεωργούς | toùs ge-ōr-goús} marking the farmers as the goal of the sending.
In context — Luke 20:10
At the appointed time he sent a servant to the farmers to receive some of the vineyard’s fruit . But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.
