Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Will love him most (pleion agaphsei auton). Strictly, comparative
more, pleion, not superlative pleista, but most suits the English idiom best, even between two. Superlative forms are vanishing before the comparative in the Koin‚. This is the point of the parable, the attitude of the two debtors toward the lender who forgave both of them (Plummer).
