馬太福音 25:29 CUNPTS

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Matthew 25:1-46

Chapter 85 Prayer Almighty God, in Jesus Christ our Saviour, who alone bore our sin. and carried them away, do thou now hear our praise and our prayer. There are no silent hearts in thine house, no mouth is closed in dumbness, we are inspired with a sense of thankfulness, for we have nothing that we have not received, and we are debtors all to the continual mercy of God. We stand in the mercy of Christ, we breathe the love of Christ; because Christ is our Head and Saviour and Lord, therefore... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Matthew 25:14-30

"For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. (15) And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. (16) Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. (17) And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. (18) But he that had... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Matthew 25:29

To every one that hath, &c. That is, who hath, so as to have made good use of, or to have improved, what was committed to his trust and management. See the notes Matthew xiii, ver. 12. (Witham) --- When those who are gifted with the grace of understanding for the benefit of others, refuse to make a proper use of the gift, that grace is of consequence withdrawn; whereas had they employed it with zeal and diligence, they would have received additional graces. (St. John Chrysostom, hom.... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 25:14-30

14-30 Christ keeps no servants to be idle: they have received their all from him, and have nothing they can call their own but sin. Our receiving from Christ is in order to our working for him. The manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. The day of account comes at last. We must all be reckoned with as to what good we have got to our own souls, and have done to others, by the advantages we have enjoyed. It is not meant that the improving of natural powers can entitle... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Matthew 25:1-99

Matthew 25 THE PARABLE OF the ten virgins opens this chapter. This world presents a very tangled scene in every direction. The coming of the Lord is going to produce a thorough disentanglement. We have already seen this in the parables of the wheat and the tares, and that of the net cast into the sea, in Matthew 13.0 , and again in the verses we have just considered at the close of Matthew 24.0 . The same great fact meets us again in this fresh similitude of the kingdom of heaven. The Lord had... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Matthew 25:24-30

The accounting of the lazy servant: v. 24. Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew then that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strewed; v. 25. and I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth. Lo, there thou hast that is thine. v. 26. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strewed. v. 27. ... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Matthew 25:26-30

Matthew TRADERS FOR THE MASTER Mat_25:14 - Mat_25:30 . The parable of the Ten Virgins said nothing about their working whilst they waited. This one sets forth that side of the duties of the servants in their master’s absence, and so completes the former. It is clearly in its true historical connection here, and is closely knit to both the preceding and following context. It is a strange instance of superficial reading that it should ever have been supposed to be but another version of... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 25:14-30

by Faithfulness Win Reward Matthew 25:14-30 We are not only guests, but servants, who must give an account of their stewardship. Each bond slave has been entrusted with at least one talent. The number of talents varies with our ability to manage them. The Master is not unreasonable, and never overtasks. It is by use that the power to use grows. By carefully employing our opportunities, our sphere of service may be greatly widened, so that, at the end of life, we shall be able to do twice as... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 25:1-46

"Then." This gives us the time in which the Kingdom of Heaven will be likened unto ten virgins. That Kingdom passes through many phases, but just before the coming of the King this will be its character. Note especially that the ten virgins are required to give a correct idea of the Kingdom. Again, to interpret the next parable rightly, we must remember it concerns the servants of the King. He has not committed His goods to rebels, but to His own. To apply this parable to all men is to... read more
