And shall begin to smite his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards;
All Commentaries on Matthew 24:49 Go To Matthew 24
John Chrysostom
AD 407
But do thou hear also what follows, and learn how continually He reminds them of their ignorance of the day, showing that this is profitable to the servants, and fitted to waken and thoroughly to rouse them. For what though some gained nothing hereby? For neither by other things profitable for them were some profited, but nevertheless He ceases not to do His part.
