Context — The Parable of the Minasgenerated
Luke 19:23 presents a scenario where a master rebukes his servant for failing to invest his money wisely. The master expected the servant to at least deposit the money in a bank, where it could earn interest. This parable illustrates the importance of using one's resources responsibly and the consequences of negligence. The broader context includes themes of accountability and the expectation of productivity from what has been entrusted to us.

The Key Word — τόκος, tokosgenerated
The noun τόκος (i.e., tokos) refers specifically to 'interest' in a financial context. It derives from the verb τίκτω (i.e., *tikto*), meaning 'to bring forth,' which metaphorically extends to the concept of generating profit from an investment.
In this verse, it emphasizes the expectation that the servant should have produced a return on the master's investment. The use of this word indicates a clear expectation of financial stewardship.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse in the Berean Standard Bible uses the term interest, which is consistent across several translations including the KJV, ASV, and WEB.
However, the KJV uses usury, which implies a more negative connotation regarding interest. This distinction highlights varying interpretations of financial practices in biblical times.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb in this verse is ἔδωκάς, did you give, which governs the structure of the sentence. It is followed by a prepositional phrase indicating the action of depositing and a conditional clause about the master's return.
The sentence structure includes a main clause and several subordinate phrases, illustrating the relationship between the servant's actions and the master's expectations.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The term τράπεζα (i.e., *trapeza*) appears in the Septuagint, where it translates the Hebrew word for 'table' or 'bank' in contexts related to financial transactions.
The concept of τόκος also has roots in the Septuagint, where it refers to interest or usury, aligning with the expectations set forth in this parable.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 19:23 shows the master asking why the servant did not put his money in the bank to earn interest. This reflects the expectation that one should wisely use and invest resources entrusted to them.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Bede comments on the expectation of productivity in this verse, emphasizing the responsibility of those who receive knowledge or resources.
And I coming, would have certainly demanded it with interest. He who receives the money of the word from the teacher, and acquires it by believing, must necessarily repay it with interest by working, so that what he has learned by hearing,

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
et quare non dedisti pecuniam meam ad mensam, ut ego veniens cum usuris utique exegissem illam ?
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܠܡܢܐ ܠܐ ܝܗܒܬ ܟܣܦܝ ܥܠ ܦܬܘܪܐ ܘܐܢܐ ܐܬܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܬܒܥ ܠܗ ܥܡ ܪܒܝܬܗ

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

PREP PREPosition
ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.
Lamentations 3:1.
The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

τίς is an interrogative pronoun meaning 'who,' 'which,' or 'what,' used in both direct and indirect questions. It can function as a substantive, adjective, or adverb, appearing in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:7 and John 18:23. The neuter form τί also means 'what' or 'which.' There are instances where τίς may be used interchangeably with other pronouns like ποῖος.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

absol. (accented), οὔ, no: Mt 13:29, Jo 1:21 21:5; οὒ οὔ, Mt 5:37, Ja 5:12.
οὐ before a consonant, οὐκ before a vowel with a smooth breathing, and ody before an aspirated vowel ; but sometimes in the best codd. οὐχ occurs even before a smooth breathing; accordingly LT WH mrg. have adopted οὐχ ἰδού, Acts ii. 7; LT οὐχ ᾿Ιουδαϊκῶς, Gal. ii. 14 (see WH.

(nathan, yahabh, sum; didomi): "Give" is a very common word in the Old Testament. It is most frequently the translation of nathan, "to give" (Ge 1:29; 3:6; Ex 2:9; De 18,20, etc., over 800 instances); nathan is also translated "to give up" (De 23:14; Isa 43:6; Ho 11:8); of yahabh, "to give" (Ge 30:1; 1Ch 16:28 the King James Version). In Ps 55:22 we have the perfect with suffix, "Cast thy burden upon Yahweh," margin "what he hath given thee"; elsewhere it is…

Deissmann (ZAZ p. 134 ff.) has drawn attention to the parallels to the solemn use of the first personal pronoun in the Fourth Gospel that may be adduced from inscriptions and magical texts.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word ἀργύριον (lemma: argurion) primarily refers to a piece of silver or a silver coin, and by extension, it can mean money in general.

Money
Of uncoined money the first notice we have is in the history of Abraham (Gen. 13:2; 20:16; 24:35). Next, this word is used in connection with the purchase of the cave of Machpelah (23:16), and again in connection with Jacob’s purchase of a field at Shalem (Gen. 33:18, 19) for “an hundred pieces of money”=an hundred Hebrew kesitahs (q.v.), i.e., probably pieces of money, as is supposed, bearing the figure of a lamb.
The history of Joseph affords evidence of the constant use of money, silver of a fixed weight. This appears also in all the subsequent history of the Jewish people, in all their internal as well as foreign transactions. There were in common use in trade silver pieces of a definite weight, shekels, half-shekels, and quarter-shekels. But these were not properly…
Uncointed money. --It is well known that ancient nations that were without a coinage weighed the precious metals, a practice represented on the Egyptian monuments, on which gold and silver are shown to have been kept in the form of rings. We have no evidence of the use of coined money before the return from the Babylonian captivity; but silver was used for money, in quantities determined by weight, at least as early as the time of Abraham; and its earliest mention is in the generic sense of the price paid for a slave. (Genesis 17:13) The 1000 pieces of silver paid by Abimelech to Abraham, (Genesis 20:16) and the 20 pieces of silver for which Joseph was sold to the Ishmaelites, (Genesis 37:28) were probably rings such as we…
Was anciently weighed, and did not at first exist in the form of coins. The most ancient commerce was conducted by barter, or exchanging one sort of merchandise for another. One man gave what he could spare to another, who gave him in return part of his superabundance. Afterwards, the more precious metals were used in traffic, as a value more generally known and stated, and the amount agreed upon was paid over by weight, Ge 23:16 43:21 Ex 30:24. Lastly they gave this metal, a certain weight, and a certain degree of alloy, to fix its value, and to save buyers and sellers the trouble of weighing and examining the coins. The first regular coinage among the Jews is supposed to have been in the time of Simon Maccabaeus, less than a century and a half before Christ. The coins were the…

The Greek word ἐπί (epi) is a preposition that indicates a relationship of superposition, often translated as 'on,' 'upon,' or 'over.' It can govern the genitive, dative, or accusative cases, covering meanings related to place, time, authority, and various figurative uses. In the New Testament, it frequently appears with the accusative case, especially in contexts of motion or direction, such as in Matthew 14:28.

Ac 5°% and see Jn 6᾽", 211 ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης, where the rendering ‘“‘ near the sea,’ or, as we should say, “fon the shore,” is to be preferred (cf. Abbott /ok. Gr. p- 261).

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

τράπεζα refers to a table, particularly a dining table, and can also imply food or a meal. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, such as for the table of shewbread (Hebrews 9:2) and for money-changers' tables (Matthew 21:12). The word is likely derived from terms meaning 'four-footed' and encompasses both physical tables and metaphorical uses related to meals and banking.

Deissmann (ZAZ p. 134 ff.) has drawn attention to the parallels to the solemn use of the first personal pronoun in the Fourth Gospel that may be adduced from inscriptions and magical texts. Thus in an inscr. in honour of Isis from Ios, written in ii/iii A.p., the contents of which are preChristian, we find —Elows ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ τ[ύρανν]ος πάσης χόρας.. ἐγὼ νόμους ἀνθρώποις ἐθέμην . . ἐγώ εἰμι Kpdvov θυγάτηρ πρεσβυτάτη α΄. And similarly in the magical papyrus P Lond 4645 (iv/a.p.) (=I. p. 69) ἐγώ εἰμι ὃ ἀκέφαλος δαίμων . . ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀλήθεια ὁ μεισῶν ἀδικήματα γείνεσθαι ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ α΄.

The Greek word ἔρχομαι (i.e., *erchomai*) means 'to come' or 'to go.' It is used in various contexts, often indicating arrival or return, and can apply to both people and events. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in references to the coming of the Messiah (e.g., Mt 11:3). Lexicons note its use with various prepositions to indicate direction or purpose.

The Greek word σύν (sun) is a preposition meaning 'with' or 'together with,' indicating association, companionship, or inclusion. It is used with the dative case and appears frequently in the New Testament, especially in the writings of Luke and Paul. Notably, it conveys a closer relationship than other similar prepositions. Examples include phrases like 'σὺν Χριστῷ' (with Christ) and 'σὺν ἐμοί' (with me).

The Greek word τόκος (*tokos*) is derived from the verb τίκτω (*tikto*), meaning 'to bring forth.' It encompasses meanings related to childbirth and offspring, as well as a metaphorical sense of interest or usury, particularly in financial contexts. This dual usage appears in the New Testament in Matthew 25:27 and Luke 19:23, where it refers to the 'interest' on money lent.
τόκος, -ov, ὁ, (fr. τίκτω, pf. τέτοκα) ; τ δῆ τ the act of bringing forth. b. that which has been brought forth, offspring; (in both senses from Homer down). 2. interest of money, usury, (because it multiplies money, and as it were ‘breeds’ [ef. 6. σ. Merchant of Venice i. 3]): Mt. xxv. 27; Lk. xix. 23, (so in Grk. writ. fr Pind. and Arstph. down; Sept. for 70}}}.
τόκος, ‘4 bringing forth,” and hence “ offspring,” and metaph. “interest,” “usury,” because it multiplies or ‘‘breeds” money (the lexicons compare Shakespeare's Merch. of Venice 1. 3 ‘‘breed of barren metal”). This metaph. usage occurs in the NT in Mt 2527, Lk 197%, and can be readily illustrated from the Kovwg#, e.g. P Eleph 27a.” (iii/B.c.) τετάγμεθα τὸ ἀργύριον καὶ τοὺς τόκους ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλικὴν τράπεζαν, P Grenf II. 1817 (B.c. 127) τόκους διδράχμους τῆς μνᾶς τὸν μῆνα ἕκαστον, i.e. interest at 2% a month (cf. s.v. δίδραχμον), BGU IV. rey (i/B.c.) τοὺς ὀφειλομένους τόκους, P Tebt II. 38415 (A.D.

in'-ter-est (neshekh, mashsha'; tokos): The Hebrew word neshekh is from a root which means "to bite"; thus interest is "something bitten off." The other word, mashsa', means "lending on interest." The Greek term is from the root tikto, "to produce" or "beget," hence, interest is something begotten or produced by money. The Hebrew words are usually translated "usury," but this meant the same as interest, all interest being reckoned as usury.
Long before Abraham's time money had been loaned at a fixed rate of interest in Babylonia and almost certainly in Egypt. The Code of Hammurabi gives regulations regarding the lending and borrowing of money, the usual interest being 20 percent. Sometimes it was only 11 2/3 and 13 1/3, as shown by contract tablets. In one case, if the loan was not paid in two months, 18 per cent interest would be charged. Corn (grain), dates, onions, etc., were loaned…

The Greek word ἄν, a conditional particle, indicates supposition or possibility and is often untranslatable in English. It is used in various grammatical constructions, particularly in hypothetical sentences, to express what would occur under certain conditions. The New Testament employs it in verses like Luke 7:39 and Galatians 1:10, illustrating its role in conditional statements.
ἄν,

In apodosis,
ἄν, a particle indicating that something can or could occur on certain conditions, or by the combination of certain fortuitous causes. In Lat. it has no equivalent ; nor do the Eng. haply, perchance, Germ. wohl (wol), etwa, exactly and everywhere correspond to it. The use of this particle in the N. T., illustrated by copious exx. fr: Grk. writ., is shown by W. § 42; [ef. B. 216 (186) 544. Its use in classic Grk. is fully exhibited (by Prof. Goodwin) in L. and S. s. v.].

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25.

πράσσω (prasso) means to do, perform, or engage in actions, often implying a habitual or repeated nature. It encompasses a range of activities from executing tasks to committing acts, including both good and bad deeds. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, such as managing affairs (Acts 19:19) and committing wrongs (Luke 22:23). There is a notable distinction between πράσσω and similar verbs like ποιέω, which also means to do but with different implications.
πράσσω,
(Att. -ττω, and so Ac 17:7 Rec.; cf. M, Pr., 25, 45),
[in LXX chiefly for עשׂה, פָּעַל;]
= Lat agere, as ποιέω (q.v.) = facere,
to do, practise, be engaged in: Ac 19:19, 36, I Co 9:17; τ. ἴδια π., to mind one's own business (τὰ ἑαυτοῦ, Soph., Plat.), I Th 4:11; intrans., to act, Ac 17:7.
to achieve, effect, accomplish, perform: Ac 26:20, 26, Ro 7:15 9:11, II Co 5:10, Phl 4:9; νόμον (ICC, in l.),
πράσσω. Like the Latin ago πράσσω suggests the acting of a moral and responsible being rather than mere performance (/aczo), cf. 1 Cor 52, 917, and for the juxtaposition of the two verbs Jn 52°, Rom 7}5: see further Schmidt Lag. τε. Gr. Synonymuk, p- 294 ff. maintained. The distinction cannot, however, always be For πράσσω in connexion with employment or the transaction of business, cf. P Tebt II. 2897 (A.D. 23) where a strategus writes to an official regarding a supplementary report of tax-payments, οὕτως yap γνώσομαι πότερον ἐπὶ τόπων σε ἐάσω πράττοντά τι ἢ. . ., “for I shall thus know whether I shall leave you in employment where you are or...’ (Edd.), and the soldier’s letter to his sister P Meyer 205 (1st half iii/A.D.) γεινώσκειν σε θέλω ὅτι ἐν τῷ Alp ]orγοείτῃ πράσσω, “1 wish you to know that Iam on duty in the Arsinoite district,” and so 154, From this comes the derived sense to…
