The gardener pleads for mercy in the third year/generation and promises to create the best conditions for the fourth year/generation to bear the fruit of repentance before the full consequences of the iniquity would be realised.
The parable may refer to a Christian who has heard the gospel of Christ by faith unto salvation. the parable reflects Jesus offering a chance for repentance and forgiveness of sin, showing his grace toward his believers.
