Exegesis
In the next clause, the object ampelona is fronted in ampelona anthropos ephuteusen {Ἀμπελῶνα ἄνθρωπος ἐφύτευσεν | Ampelôna ánthrōpos ephýteusen}, producing emphasis on the vineyard before introducing the subject “a man,” a typical parabolic anonymizing of characters.
In context — Mark 12:1
And He began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard and set a fence around it, and dug a wine-vat, and built a tower, and leased it to farmers, and went away on a journey.”
