The Gospel of Matthew's Parable of the Unmerciful Servant is appointed for today's Gospel. Discussing the parable, Abp. Irineos considers the debt incurred by the unmericful servant, the purpose for which he received forgiveness of the debt, and the immensity of the penalty he suffers on revocation of the gift. Finally, we explore the connection between the debt owed in the parable and the payment of the penalty for our sins on the Cross.
