SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:48

Y si aquel siervo malo dijere en su corazn: Mi seor se tarda en venir;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 24:48

Verse 48. But, and if that
evil servant] Here are three characters of a bad minister. 1. He has little or no faith in the speedy coming of Christ, either to punish for wickedness, or to pardon and sanctify those who believe. It may be, he does not outwardly profess this, but he says it in his heart, and God searches his heart, and knows that he professes to teach what he does not believe. 2. He governs with an absolute dominion, oppressing his colleagues and doing violence to the followers of Christ. And shall begin to smite, &c. 3. He leads an irregular life does not love the company of the children of God, but eats and drinks with the drunkards, preferring the tables of the great and the rich, whose god is their belly, and thus feeds himself without fear. Great God! save thine inheritance from being ravaged by such wolves!

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 48. But and if that
evil servant , etc.] Or should there be an evil servant, an unwise and faithless one, who though he may have gifts and talents, yet destitute of the grace of God; and though he may be in the highest post and office in the church of God for sometimes wicked and graceless men are in such places; yet if he shall say in his heart ; secretly to himself, and with pleasure to his mind, and strengthen himself in a full persuasion of this, my Lord delayeth his coming ; and begins to think that either he will not come at all, to call him to an account for the use of his time, gifts, and talents; or if he does, it will be long first ere he will come, and visit the people of the Jews, by desolating calamities; or by death, to summon him to his bar; or at judgment, to give in his account of his stewardship.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 42-51 - To watch for
Christ's coming, is to maintain that temper of mind whic we would be willing that our Lord should find us in. We know we have but a little time to live, we cannot know that we have a long time to live; much less do we know the time fixed for the judgment. Our Lord' coming will be happy to those that shall be found ready, but very dreadful to those that are not. If a man, professing to be the servan of Christ, be an unbeliever, covetous, ambitious, or a lover of pleasure, he will be cut off. Those who choose the world for their portion in this life, will have hell for their portion in the othe life. May our Lord, when he cometh, pronounce us blessed, and presen us to the Father, washed in his blood, purified by his Spirit, and fi to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light __________________________________________________________________

Robertson's NT Word Studies

24:48 {My
lord tarrieth} (cronizei mou ho kurios). That is the temptation and to give way to indulge in fleshly appetites or to pride of superior intellect. Within a generation scoffers will be asking where is the promise of the coming of Christ (#2Pe 3:4). They will forget that God's clock is not like our clock and that a day with the Lord may be a thousand years or a thousand years as one day (#2Pe 3:8).
