Context of Luke 19:27

25“But, master,” they replied, “that servant has ten pounds already.” 26“Let me tell you this,” the king said. “Some people have received good things. They will all receive more. Some other people have nothing. Those people will lose even the little bit that they do have. Now I must punish these other people that did not want me to rule over them. Bring them here and kill them in front of me.” ’ 28When Jesus had said all this, he went on in front of them. He was going towards Jerusalem. 29He was getting near to two villages called Bethphage and Bethany. They were on the Mount of Olives. Then Jesus sent two of his disciples to go further.
