Gospel Summary by Samsung
The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant
• A king settles accounts with his slaves; one owes 10,000 talents and begs for patience.
• The king forgives the debt, but the slave demands payment from a fellow slave who owes him 100 denarii and imprisons him.
• The king, upon hearing this, has the unforgiving slave tortured until the entire debt is paid as a consequence of lacking mercy.
