The Parable of the Unjust Steward or Parable of the Penitent Steward is a parable of Jesus which appears in Luke 16:1–13. In it, a steward who is about to be fired tries to "curry favor" with his master's debtors by remitting some of their debts. [ 1 ]
Luke 16 is the sixteenth chapter of the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.It records the teachings and parables of Jesus Christ, including the account of the "rich man and Lazarus". [1]
This famous saying also appears at Luke 16:13, but there it comes at the end of the Parable of the Unjust Steward. In Luke's Gospel, the saying is thus clearly one about God and money. In Matthew, the previous verses imply it can mean placing anything above God.

Luke 18 is the eighteenth chapter of the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.It records the teachings and a miracle of Jesus Christ. [1] The book containing this chapter is anonymous, but early Christian tradition uniformly affirmed that Luke the Evangelist composed this Gospel as well as the Acts of the Apostles.
The author describes his book as a "narrative" (diegesis), rather than as a gospel, and implicitly criticises his predecessors for not giving their readers the speeches of Jesus and the Apostles, as such speeches were the mark of a "full" report, the vehicle through which ancient historians conveyed the meaning of their narratives.
Luke 10 is the tenth chapter of the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament of the Christian Bible.It records the sending of seventy disciples by Jesus, the famous parable about the Good Samaritan, and his visit to the house of Mary and Martha. [1]
The understanding of the parable hinges on the PLACEMENT of the word "also" which is derived from the Greek "kai".
