1 E&O P6 RERC 2-02a I explore the Biblical stories of Creation and I can reflect on how we understand these truths in our modern world. Core learning: I can hear, read and recall the parable of the talents (Matthew 25: 14-30).

2 Matthew 25:14-30 The Parable of the Talents For it is as if a man, going on a journey, summoned his slaves and entrusted his property to them; to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away. The one who had received the five talents went off at once and traded with them, and made five more talents. In the same way, the one who had the two talents made two more talents. But the one who had received the one talent went off and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master s money. RERC 2-02a Image of God 1of3 P6

3 Matthew 25:14-30(cont d) The Parable of the Talents After a long time the master of those slaves came and settled accounts with them. Then the one who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five more talents, saying, Master, you handed over to me five talents; see, I have made five more talents. His master said to him, Well done, good and trustworthy slave; you have been trustworthy in a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master.

4 Matthew 25:14-30(cont d) RERC 2-02a Image of God The Parable of the Talents And the one with the two talents also came forward, saying, Master, you handed over to me two talents; see, I have made two more talents. His master said to him, Well done, good and trustworthy slave; you have been trustworthy in a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master. 3of3 Then the one who had received the one talent also came forward, saying, Master, I knew that you were a harsh man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter seed; so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is yours. P6
