MATTHEW 18:33 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?”
And should you not have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you? The rhetorical question — should you not have had mercy — is the kingdom's logic of received mercy producing extended mercy. The mercy that the king showed must produce the same mercy in the one who received it. The failure to extend the received mercy is the wickedness that triggers the reversal.
