Contextual Overview

¹¹While they were listening to these things, Jesus went on to tell a parable, because He was near Jerusalem, and they assumed that the kingdom of God was going to appear immediately [as soon as He reached the city]. ¹²So He said, "A nobleman went to a distant country to obtain for himself a kingdom, and [then] to return. ¹³"So he called ten of his servants, and gave them ten minas [one apiece, each equal to about a hundred days' wages] and said to them, 'Do business [with this] until I return.' ¹⁴"But his citizens [the residents of his new kingdom] hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, 'We do not want this man to be a king over us.' ¹⁵"When he returned, after receiving the kingdom, he ordered that these servants, to whom he had given the money, be called to him, that he might find out what business they had done. ¹⁶"The first one came before him and said, 'Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.' ¹⁷"And he said to him, 'Well done, good servant! Because you proved yourself faithful and trustworthy in a very little thing, you shall [now] have authority over ten cities [in my kingdom].' ¹⁸"The second one came and said, 'Lord, your mina has made five minas.' ¹⁹"And he said to him also, 'And you shall take charge over five cities.' ²⁰"Then another came and said, 'Lord, here is your mina, which I have kept laid up in a handkerchief [for safekeeping].

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But those mine enemies,.... Meaning particularly the Jews, who were enemies to the person of Christ, and hated and rejected him, as the King Messiah; and rebelled against him, and would not submit to his government; and were enemies to his people, and were exceeding mad against them, and persecuted them; and to his Gospel, and the distinguishing truths of it, and to his ordinances, which they rejected against themselves:

which would not that I should reign over them; see Luke 19:14

bring hither, and slay [them] before me; which had its accomplishment in the destruction of Jerusalem, when multitudes of them were slain with the sword, both with their own, and with their enemies; and to this the parable has a special respect, and of which Christ more largely discourses in this chapter; see Luke 19:41 though it is true of all natural men, that they are enemies to Christ; and so of all negligent and slothful professors, and ministers of the word, who, when Christ shall come a second time, of which his coming to destroy the Jewish nation was an emblem and pledge, will be punished with everlasting destruction by him; and then all other enemies will be slain and destroyed, sin, Satan, the world, and death: of the first of these the Jews say n,

"in the time to come the holy, blessed God, will bring forth the evil imagination (or corruption of nature),

ושוחטו, "and slay it before" the righteous, and the wicked.''

n T. Bab. Succa, fol. 52. 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

For I say ... - These are the words of the “nobleman” declaring the principles on which he would distribute the rewards of his kingdom.

But those mine enemies - By the punishment of those who would not that he should reign over them is denoted the ruin that was to come upon the Jewish nation for rejecting the Messiah, and also upon all sinners for not receiving him as their king. See the notes at the parable of the talents in Matthew 25:0.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 27. Those - enemies - bring hither — the Jews, whom I shall shortly slay by the sword of the Romans.
