This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

NASB (UPDATED) TEXT: Mat_25:26-28

26"But his master answered and said to him, 'You wicked, lazy slave, you knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed. 27Then you ought to have put my money in the bank, and on my arrival I would have received my money back with interest. 28Therefore take away the talent from him, and give it to the one who has the ten talents.'"

Mat_25:27 "interest" This term was an idiom taken from child bearing. OT guidelines for interest are found in Deu_23:19-20. A Jew could only collect usury from Gentiles.
