Jesus uses a question to answer Peter's question indirectly. He expected those who wanted to be faithful managers to understand that the parable was about them. Alternate translation: "I said it for everyone who is ... right time." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
Jesus tells another parable about how servants should be faithful while they wait for their master to return. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parables]])
