Bible Comments

So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

Ver. 31. So when his fellow servants] The angels, say some, who when they see us backward to business of this nature, are sorry, and say our errand to their and our common Lord, Angeli vident, dolent, et Domino omnia referunt (Aret.). The angels see, are grieved and refer all matters to God. Or the saints on earth groan out their discontents, against the unmerciful, to God, who soon hears them, for he is gracious,Exodus 22:27; yea, the cries of the poor oppressed do even "enter into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth," James 5:4 .
