Verse 13. - The servants; τοῖς διακόνοις: ministers, or attendants - not the same as the servants (δοῦλοι) who originally carried out the invitations.

By hand and foot men sin, by these they are punished. All hope of escape is thus removed.

Far away from the glory and brightness of the banquet into the gloom and blackness of the outer world, which represents the misery of lost souls (see ch. 8:12, where the same expressions occur).

This is the fruit of sin, and especially of the abuse of faith and grace" (Quesnel).Parallel Commentaries ... Greek ThenΤότε (Tote) Adverb Strong's 5119: Then, at that time.
