SEV Biblia, Chapter 19:18
Y vino el segundo, diciendo: Seor, tu mina ha hecho cinco minas.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 18. And the second came , etc.] He who was next, though less useful, yet equally diligent and active: saying, Lord ; acknowledging also the power and authority of Christ over him: thy pound hath gained five pounds ; is increased fivefold, or is turned to a fivefold account, to the interest of Christ, and good of immortal souls: the usefulness of the ministers of the Gospel is not alike; as they have gifts different one from another, so their improvements are different, and their labours, though faithful, do not turn to the same account, Ver. 19. And he said likewise to him , etc.] He commended him as a good and faithful servant, though this is not expressed; and added, be thou over five cities ; which does not denote any inequality of glory in Christ's ministers, who will all shine as the firmament, and as the stars for ever and ever; at least, there will be no inequality in the ultimate state of happiness, when all the saints shall shine as the sun in the kingdom of their Father, whatever there may be in the kingdom state, or in Christ's personal reign with his saints on earth. The above learned writer would have this passage compared with ( Isaiah 19:18).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 11-27 - This parable is like that of the talents, Mt 25. Those that are calle to Christ, he furnishes with gifts needful for their business; and from those to whom he gives power, he expects service. The manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal, 1Co 12:7. And a every one has received the gift, so let him minister the same, 1P 4:10. The account required, resembles that in the parable of the talents; and the punishment of the avowed enemies of Christ, as well a of false professors, is shown. The principal difference is, that the pound given to each seems to point out the gift of the gospel, which is the same to all who hear it; but the talents, distributed more or less seem to mean that God gives different capacities and advantages to men by which this one gift of the gospel may be differently improved.
