Does he thank The phrase "does he thank" in Greek is "μὴ ἔχει χάριν" (mē echei charin), which can be translated as "does he have gratitude" or "does he express thanks." In the cultural context of the first century, a master expressing thanks to a servant for fulfilling their duty was not customary. The relationship between master and servant was one of authority and obligation, not mutual appreciation. This highlights the expectation of duty and obedience without the anticipation of gratitude, reflecting the nature of our service to God. We serve not for thanks but out of duty and love. the servant because he did what he was told Parallel Commentaries ...
