Matthew 18:24

Context
18:24 As 1  he began settling his accounts, a man who owed ten thousand talents 2  was brought to him.

1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

2 sn A talent was a huge sum of money, equal to 6,000 denarii. One denarius was the usual day’s wage for a worker. L&N 6.82 states, “a Greek monetary unit (also a unit of weight) with a value which fluctuated, depending upon the particular monetary system which prevailed at a particular period of time (a silver talent was worth approximately six thousand denarii with gold talents worth at least thirty times that much).”
