<strong>The</strong> <strong>Book</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> Chapter Ten: <strong>The</strong> life <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> from <strong>the</strong> Gospels <strong>of</strong> Mat<strong>the</strong>w, Mark, Luke, John in easy-to-read, chronological format.<br />

had begun to tally <strong>the</strong> accounts <strong>of</strong> his servants, one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m was brought to him who owed him ten-thousand talents. But on account <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> fact that he did not have <strong>the</strong> means to repay <strong>the</strong> debt, his master ordered that he was to be sold along with his wife, children and all<br />

his possessions.<br />

At this, <strong>the</strong> servant threw himself down, prostrated himself before him and said; 'Master, have patience with me and I will pay you<br />

everything that I owe you.' <strong>The</strong> servant's master was moved with compassion, let him go and discharged his debt. However, this<br />

servant went out and came upon one <strong>of</strong> his fellow servants, one who owed him one-hundred denarii. He grabbed him, seized him by<br />

his throat and said; 'Pay me what you owe me!' His fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him; 'Have patience with me and<br />

I'll pay you back everything I owe you.' But <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r man would not accept his plea and went and had him thrown into prison until he<br />

was able to pay back <strong>the</strong> debt.<br />

When his fellow servants saw what had happened, <strong>the</strong>y were deeply disturbed. Going to <strong>the</strong>ir master, <strong>the</strong>y told him everything that<br />

had transpired. <strong>The</strong> master <strong>the</strong>n sent for <strong>the</strong> man and said to him; 'You wicked servant! I cancelled all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> debt <strong>of</strong> yours because<br />

you appealed to me. Shouldn't you also have had compassion on your fellow servant even as I had pity on you?' His master was<br />

furious and handed him over to <strong>the</strong> torturers until he was able to pay back everything that was owed him.<br />

This is also how my Heavenly Fa<strong>the</strong>r will deal with you if you do not forgive everyone <strong>of</strong> your bro<strong>the</strong>rs <strong>the</strong>ir trespasses from your<br />

heart. When He had finished speaking, he left for Galilee.<br />
