Commentary
Five Are Foolish, Five
Are Wise
A few
weeks ago, we listened to another wedding parable, with a king inviting guests
to his son’s wedding (Matthew 22: 1-10).
In that parable, the invited guests refused to come. The king then sent his servants out to “invite
to the feast whomever [they] find. The
servants went out into the streets and gathered all they found, bad and good alike.”
In today’s
parable, both the wise and the foolish virgins are included in the
wedding.
God does
not discriminate in his invitation.
It is up
to us to respond.
