- 13:12 In the New Testament use of this axiom of practical “wisdom” (see Mt 25:29; Mk 4:25; Lk 8:18; 19:26), the reference transcends the original level. God gives further understanding to one who accepts the revealed mystery; from the one who does not, he will take it away (note the “theological passive,” more will be given, what he has will be taken away).
Matthew 13:12
New King James Version
12 (A)For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
