1 | Who is speaking in Luke 19:27? | Luke 19:27 | JK123 | 217953 | ||
Hi Guys, I am very confused about Luke 19:27...is this Jesus speaking in the first person directly to the people? Or is this "the nobleman" speaking within the confines of the parable? In the NASB, it appears that the parable ends in v.25 and that Jesus is speaking directly in v.26 and v.27 In other versions like the NIV, they clearly attribute vs. 26-27 to the "nobleman" in the parable, and not to Jesus in the first person? But vs. 26 is clearly a direct saying from Jesus found in many other places in the NT? I am confused! Thanks So Much for your help God Bless Jim |

Hi Jim, Verse 25 is in the form of a question, so the contextual concept of the parable would not make sense to end on verse 25. Verse 25 being a question, certainly would beg an answer from the nobleman, which is in vv 26-27. Remember that this parable is giving us a picture of God/Jesus judging His servants, so it would also make sense that these words are spoken by Him in the first person in other verses/places found in the NT. I hope that helps. John |
