Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Matthew 25:14-23

14For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions.
15To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent — each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey.
16The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put them to work and gained five more.
17Likewise, the one with the two talents gained two more.
18But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
19After a long time the master of those servants returned to settle accounts with them.
20The servant who had received the five talents came and presented five more. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.’
21His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
22The servant who had received the two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more.’
23His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
— Matthew 25:14-23
