CommentJeromePublic domainMatthew 24:45–51

“The Lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for Him,” is to rouse the stewards to watchfulness and carefulness. “He shall cut him in sunder,” is not to be understood of execution by the sword, but that he shall sever him from the company of the saints.
