According to Matthew 25:1–13, ten virgins await a bridegroom; five have brought enough oil for their lamps for the wait, while the oil of the other five runs out. The five virgins who are prepared for the bridegroom's arrival are rewarded, while the five who went to buy further oil miss the bridegroom's arrival and are disowned.
The chapter continues a discourse commenced at Matthew 24:3 where the disciples come to Jesus to speak "privately". [6] The Parable of the Ten Virgins (verses 1-13) and the Parable of the Talents (verses 14-30) are both unique to Matthew, [7] but the Parable of the Talents has a corollary in Luke 19:11-27.
[1] [2] Blomberg showed how the five-discourse structure can be used to relate the top-level structure of Matthew with Mark, Luke and John. [2] In his mapping Chapter 13 of Matthew is its centre, as is Mark 8:30 and the beginning of Chapter 12 of John. He then separates Luke into three parts by 9:51 and 18:14. [2]
