Luke 16:11

16:11 If then you haven’t been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will entrust you with the true riches?

Luke 20:34

20:34 So Jesus said to them, “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage.


tn Or “faithful.”

tn Grk “the unrighteous mammon.” See the note on the phrase “worldly wealth” in v. 9.

sn Entrust you with the true riches is a reference to future service for God. The idea is like 1 Cor 9:11, except there the imagery is reversed.

tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate that Jesus’ response is a result of their framing of the question.

tn Grk “sons of this age” (an idiom, see L&N 11.16). The following clause which refers to being “given in marriage” suggests both men and women are included in this phrase.
