Commentary on Matthew 25:16

Theological / Devotional

Went and traded. Textual evidence is divided (cf. p. 146) as to whether the word “straightway” belongs with v. 15 — “straightway took his journey” — or with v. 16 — “he straightway went and traded.” According to the latter reading, the servant lost no time in setting about the task entrusted to him. He proved diligent.
