Luke 12:44

44 I tell you the truth, the master will choose that servant to take care of everything he owns.

Luke 12:44 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 12:44

Of a truth I say unto you
This, with Christ, was a strong way of asserting the truth of any thing; and the sense is, you may assure yourselves of it, this will certainly be the happy case of such servant:

that he will make him ruler over all that he hath;
as Joseph was made by Pharaoh. Such an one shall reign with Christ on earth a thousand years, and then in heaven with him to all eternity, where he shall enjoy all things; (See Gill on Matthew 24:47)

Luke 12:44 In-Context

42 The Lord said, "Who is the wise and trusted servant that the master trusts to give the other servants their food at the right time?

43 When the master comes and finds the servant doing his work, the servant will be blessed.

44 I tell you the truth, the master will choose that servant to take care of everything he owns.

45 But suppose the servant thinks to himself, 'My master will not come back soon,' and he begins to beat the other servants, men and women, and to eat and drink and get drunk.

46 The master will come when that servant is not ready and is not expecting him. Then the master will cut him in pieces and send him away to be with the others who don't obey.
