Matthew 25:28 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 25:28

26 “But his lord answered and said to him, ‘You ^awicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed.

27 So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest.

28 Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents.

29 ^a‘For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.

30 And cast the unprofitable servant ^ainto the outer darkness. ^bThere will be weeping and ^cgnashing of teeth.’

The Son of Man Will Judge the Nations

31 ^a“When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the¹ holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.

32 ^aAll the nations will be gathered before Him, and ^bHe will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.

33 And He will set the ^asheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
