But 1  they said to him, ‘Sir, he has ten minas already!’ 2 

XREF

2Sa 7:19; Isa 55:8,9; Lu 16:2

NET © Notes

tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context. Those watching the evaluation are shocked, as the one with the most gets even more. The word “already” is supplied at the end of the statement to indicate this surprise and shock.

tc A few mss (D W 69 pc and a few versional witnesses) omit this verse either to harmonize it with Matt 25:28-29 or to keep the king’s speech seamless.
