paraphrased ‘enter the story’
🕊️reading & study 🕊️
41 - Peter asked Jesus, “Lord, are you telling this parable for us - or for everyone?” (To stay ready/prepared.) 42 And the Lord said, “Who then is a faithful and wise manager, whom his master will set over his household? To give to the household the food that is needed at the proper time?
43 Blessed is that servant whom their master will find so doing when he returns. 44 Truly, I tell you, he will set that one over all his possessions. 45 But if that servant says to their self, ‘My master is delayed in coming,’ and begins to beat the other servants” {even with words?} “and to eat and drink and get drunk” {or senseless? confused?} 46 the master of that servant will come on a day they are not expecting nor waiting, and at an hour they’re not aware of, and will cut them off” {from the flock} “and put them with the unfaithful. 47 And the servant who knew his master's will but didn’t get ready or act according to his will, will receive a severe beating” {self inflicted spiritually, beat yourself up over, or experience cause and effect results and consequences. Unless we think God will be flogging people. What actually works, flogging or remorse?} 48 “But the one who didn’t know, and did what deserved a beating, will receive a light beating. Everyone to whom much was given, more will be required, and from those entrusted with much, more will be expected from them.”
