Commentary on Matthew 5:26
Complete payment of every debt before release reinforces the seriousness of unresolved sin. The 'uttermost farthing' (smallest coin) shows God's justice is thorough and complete. This parable warns about the impossibility of self-salvation—we cannot pay the debt of sin ourselves.
