Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(15) It came to pass, that when he was returned.--See Note on Matthew 25:19. The absence of the words "after a long time" is noticeable, and suggests the thought that our Lord may have added them in the later form of the parable as a further safeguard against the prevalent expectations of the immediate coming of the Kingdom, and, we may add, against the thought which sprang up afterwards in men's minds, that there was no kingdom to be received, and that the King would never return. (Comp. 2Peter 3:4.)Had gained by trading.--The Greek verb is a compound form of that translated "occupy" in Luke 19:13.Parallel Commentaries ...GreekWhenΚαὶ (Kai)ConjunctionStrong's 2532: And, even, also, namely. heαὐτὸν (auton)Personal / Possessive Pronoun - Accusative Masculine 3rd Person SingularStrong's 846: He, she, it, they, them, same.
