Matthew 25:21 gives the identical commendation to the five-talent servant — showing the same reward for faithfulness regardless of amount entrusted.

Matthew 24:47 promises the same reward of being set over all possessions — a parallel promise of stewardship promotion.

Proverbs 22:29 says a diligent man will stand before kings — parallels the servant being given authority over many things for his faithful work.

1 Corinthians 4:2 states the requirement that stewards be found faithful — the servant here exemplifies that standard.

Mark 12:41-44 shows the widow giving all she had — illustrates that small offerings given faithfully are valued like the two-talent servant's work.
