His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things. Both are commended in the same terms, and the reward of both is precisely the same. (See the note at Matthew 25:15.) Observe also the contrasts: 'Thou hast been faithful as a servant; now be a ruler-thou hast been entrusted with a few things; now have dominion over many things.'
Enter thou into the joy of thy lord - thy Lord's own joy. (See John 15:11; Hebrews 12:2.)
