Your translation is off, read the KJV, nothing to do with context. Also read post 11, have a nice day.
With all due respect to you and the lambs and sheep who only listen to the 'voice' of their 'GOOD SHEPHERD' and follow HIM and not me, according to the KJV version.
Chapter 16 and verse 1:
"And HE said also unto HIS disciple's', ........................................................."
Therefore JESUS is speaking to HIS disciple's' and to only them after this 'parable'.
Verse 9:
"And I say onto you, 'Make to yourselve's' ............................................................................ everlasting habitation's'."
Again, we all know there is 'only' two everlasting habitation's', one is Heaven and another Hell.
Even a 'believer' can be a 'dishonest manager' misusing GOD will 'providence' through 'business'(wicked wealth) according to JESUS's parable, for their carnal/flesh/self's 'passions' and 'desires' and making 'provision' for them and their similar sinner friends and rather not for the needy Christians who are poor.
There seems to be nothing very wrong with the written 'versions', but only our 'own' versions, 'incomplete' in understanding according to written 'context', without the 'Helper', the HOLY SPIRIT sent to us by CHRIST of the Living GOD, for GOD and us.
