matthew 25:22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

matthew 25:22 "The one also who [had received] the two talents came up and said, 'Master, you entrusted to me two talents; see, I have gained two more talents.'

22. He also that had received two talents came . . . good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things--Both are commended in the same terms, and the reward of both is precisely the same. (See on Mt 25:15). Observe also the contrasts: "Thou hast been faithful as a servant; now be a ruler--thou hast been entrusted with a few things; now have dominion over many things."
enter thou into the joy of thy lord--thy Lord's own joy. (See Joh 15:11; Heb 12:2).

matthew 25:22 "The one also who [had received] the two talents came up and said, 'Master, you entrusted to me two talents; see, I have gained two more talents.'
