Clarke's Luke 19:26 Bible Commentary
And from him that hath not - See this particularly explained Matthew 13:12 (note). Perhaps it would be well, with Bishop Pearce, to supply the word gained - give it to him who hath gained ten minas; for I say unto you, That unto every one who hath gained shall be given; and, from him who hath not gained, even that which he hath received, shall be taken away.
Barnes's Luke 19:26 Bible Commentary
For I say ... - These are the words of the "nobleman" declaring the principles on which he would distribute the rewards of his kingdom.
But those mine enemies - By the punishment of those who would not that he should reign over them is denoted the ruin that was to come upon the Jewish nation for rejecting the Messiah, and also upon all sinners for not receiving him as their king. See the notes at the parable of the talents in Matthew 25.
