re: "the faithful or the unfaithful slave" (lk 12:41-48)
vv47-48 "that slave who KNEW what his master wanted, but did not prepare himself or do what was wanted, will receive a severe beating. [48] but the one who DID NOT KNOW and did what deserved a beating will receive a light beating.
from everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded."
