In context

10For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

11While the people were listening to this, Jesus proceeded to tell them a parable, because He was near Jerusalem and they thought the kingdom of God would appear imminently.

12So He said, “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to lay claim to his kingship and then return.

13Beforehand, he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. ‘Conduct business with this until I return,’ he said.

14But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We do not want this man to rule over us.’
