Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
<< Luke 12:16   Luke 12:18 >>


Luke 12:17

Reasoned within himself (dielogizeto en autw). Imperfect middle, picturing his continued cogitations over his perplexity.

Where to bestow (pou sunacw). Future indicative deliberative, where I shall gather together.

My fruits (touv karpouv mou). So it is with the rich fool: my fruits, my barns, my corn, my goods, just like Nabal whose very name means fool (I Samuel 25:11), whether a direct reference to him or not.
