MATTHEW 24:49 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;”
And begins to beat his fellow servants and eats and drinks with drunkards. The wicked servant's behavior in the assumed absence: beating the other servants and carousing with drunkards. The abuse of authority over the servants and the indulgence in drunkenness are the behavioral consequences of the assumption that the master will not return soon. The wicked servant has not left his position — he has stayed while behaving as if the master has gone indefinitely.
