Gill's Notes on the Bible
And cast ye the unprofitable servant,.... All the servants of Christ are unprofitable with respect to God; for no man can be profitable to him, as he that is wise may be profitable to himself, or others; or in a way of merit, since when they have done the most and best, they have done but their duty: but this man was unprofitable with respect to himself, having not improved the gift and talent bestowed on him; and with respect to men, being of no use for the conversion of sinners, or the comfort of saints, or the edifying of the body of Christ; and brought no honour to his master, and was of no service for the spreading of his Gospel, and the enlargement of his kingdom and interest; and therefore, as one good for nothing, the ministering angels are bid to take him, and cast him
into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth: he shall be turned out of doors into outer darkness, to be a companion of other unhappy creatures; who are also without, bewailing their miserable condition, and reflecting on their past conduct; whilst faithful, diligent, and laborious servants will be within, partaking of a rich entertainment, prepared by their Lord, accompanied with joy unspeakable, and full of glory:

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And cast ... - See the notes at Matthew 8:12. The spiritual meaning of the parable may be thus summed up:
- The servants of God are not all endowed with equal gifts and talents.
- All, whatever may be their ability, are bound to employ their talents in promoting his honor, and in a proper improvement of them.
- By employing their talents in a proper manner, they improve and strengthen them.
- They will be judged according to the improvements which they have made.
- All sinners look on God as a hard master, and as unreasonable and tyrannical.
- People will be judged not merely for âdoing wrong, but for neglecting to do right.â
- If the servant who kept the talent entire without injuring it, and who returned it to his master as he received it, was nevertheless judged, condemned, and cast away, what must they expect who abuse their talents, destroy by drunkenness and lust the noble faculties conferred on them, and squander the property that might be employed in advancing the interests of morals and religion!
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 30. Weeping and gnashing of teeth. — Matthew 8:12; Matthew 8:12, a note necessary for the illustration of this, and the foregoing parable.
