MATTHEW 25:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.”
Afterward the other virgins came also, saying: Lord, lord, open to us. The too-late arrival of the foolish virgins — Lord, Lord, open to us — echoes the Lord, Lord of Matthew 7:21–22 (those who say Lord, Lord but do not do the will of the Father). The Lord, Lord communicates the genuine external identification with the bridegroom, which is not sufficient without the oil of genuine readiness.
