Audio Bible Context The Parable of the Ten Minas…19And to this one he said, ‘You shall have authority over five cities.’ 20Then another servant came and said, ‘Master, here is your mina, which I have laid away in a piece of cloth. 21For I was afraid of you, because you are a harsh man. You withdraw what you did not deposit and reap what you did not sow.’… Cross References Matthew 25:24-25 Finally, the servant who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. / So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what belongs to you.’ Matthew 25:18 But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money. Matthew 25:26-30 ‘You wicked, lazy servant!’ replied his master. ‘You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed. / Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have received it back with interest. / Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents. ... Luke 8:18 Pay attention, therefore, to how you listen.

From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded. Matthew 13:12 Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. Mark 4:25 For whoever has will be given more.

Romans 14:12 So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God. 1 Corinthians 3:13-15 his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. / If what he has built survives, he will receive a reward. / If it is burned up, he will suffer loss. He himself will be saved, but only as if through the flames. 2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad. James 2:14-17 What good is it, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith, but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? / Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. / If one of you tells him, “Go in peace; stay warm and well fed,” but does not provide for his physical needs, what good is that? ... Proverbs 26:13-16 The slacker says, “A lion is in the road!

Of Zacchaeus a tax collector.11. The ten minas. 28. Jesus rides into Jerusalem with triumph; 41. weeps over it; 45. drives the buyers and sellers out of the temple; 47. Teaching daily in it. The rulers seek to destroy him, but fear the people. Then another servant came This phrase introduces the third servant in the parable of the minas. The Greek word for "servant" here is "δοῦλος" (doulos), which means a bond-servant or slave. In the context of the parable, this servant represents those who are entrusted with responsibilities in the kingdom of God. Historically, servants in biblical times were expected to be faithful and diligent in their duties, reflecting the trust placed in them by their masters. and said, ‘Master here is your mina which I have laid away in a piece of cloth.’ Laid up in a napkin.--The smaller scale of the parable is shown in the contrast between this and the "hiding the talent in the earth," in St. Matthew. The "napkin" (the Greek word is really Latin, sudarium) appears in Acts 19:12 as "handkerchiefs." Such articles were naturally, then as now, used for wrapping up and concealing money which the owner wished simply to hoard. Verses 20, 21. - And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: for I feared thee, because thou art an austere man; thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow. This is the third class into which the servants who knew their Lord's will are roughly divided. We have, first, the devoted earnest toiler, whose whole soul was in his Master's work - great, indeed, was his reward. And, second, we have the servant who acquitted himself fairly respectably, but not nobly, not a hero in the struggle of life; he, too, is recompensed magnificently, far above his most ardent hopes, but still his reward is infinitely below that which the first brave toiler received at his Lord's hands. The third falls altogether into a different catalogue. He is a believer who has not found the state of grace offered by Jesus so brilliant as he hoped; a legal Christian, who has not tasted grace, and knows nothing of the gospel but its severe morality. It seems to him that the Lord gives very little to exact so much. "Surely," such a one argues, "the Lord should be satisfied with us if we abstain from doing ill, from squandering our talent." The Master's answer is singularly to the point: "The more thou knowest that I am austere, the more thou shouldest have tried to satisfy me!" The Christian who lacks the experience of grace ought to be the most anxious of workers. The punishment here is very different from that awarded to the enemies (ver. 27). We hear nothing of darkness and gnashing of teeth; it is simply deprivation. Still, even this modified penalty seems to tell of an eternity of regret and loss. Instead of the ten cities, or even the five, there is not even the poor pound left to the hapless condemned one, unworthy even to retain that little heritage.Parallel Commentaries ...
