“But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?”
Suppose one of you has a servant plowing or looking after the sheep. Will he say to the servant when he comes in from the field, come along now and sit down to eat? — the servant's duty parable addresses the disciples' potential expectation of special credit for their kingdom service. No master says to a returning field-servant: come sit and eat — the servant's work is not yet done.
