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.
The setting of the parable of the talents in Matthew 25 is the Mt. Olivet discourse. In Matthew 24–25, the overall theme is end-time events, warning, and parables. "The direct cautions and warnings (Matthew 24:42, Matthew 24:44; Matthew 25:13) must be for the disciples (his audience)—warnings to be watchful and to be ready for Christ's coming".
A large majority of fellows on the Jesus Seminar, for example, designated the parable as merely similar to something Jesus might have said or simply inauthentic ("grey" or "black"). [28] Bart Ehrman wrote that the parable makes sense within the context of the Church during the time period before the Gospel of Matthew was written, around 60–90 AD.
Blomberg showed how the five-discourse structure can be used to relate the top-level structure of Matthew with Mark, Luke and John.

Of Matthew's thirty-two uses of this expression, twelve occur in material that is parallel to Mark and/or Luke, that addresses exactly the same topics but consistently refer to the "kingdom of God", e.g., the first beatitude (Matt 5:3; cf.
