3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,
The third hour, by the way we tell time today, would be 9am.
The market place was where those who wanted to work waited to be hired.
Some were hired early in the morning, but there were others still waiting and hoping for work, because they had to feed their family.
These were not lazy men, but there was nothing to do except wait.
