# General Information:
In Isaiah's parable of the vineyard, the owner of the vineyard, who represents God, speaks to the people of Jerusalem and Judah about his vineyard. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parables]])
# inhabitant of Jerusalem and man of Judah
These expressions refer in general to all people living in Jerusalem and Judah, so they can be translated with plural nouns. Alternate translation: "all of you who live in Jerusalem and Judah" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-genericnoun]])
# Jerusalem ... Judah
"Judah" was the name of the southern kingdom of Israelites, and Jerusalem was the capital city.
# judge between me and my vineyard
The idea of a space separating two things is often used to express the idea of choosing one or the other of those things. Alternate translation: "decide who has acted right, I or my vineyard" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
