This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

26. ᾔδεις ὅτι … διεσκόρπισα; ‘Thou knewest that I was,’ &c.? It is an interrogation ex concesso. The Lord does not admit the truth of this description, but judges the slave from his own standpoint. Even a low conception of the divine nature brings some responsibility, and has some promise of reward. This view brings this picture into agreement with the other descriptions of the last judgment.
