Exegesis
The phrase ho doulos ekeinos {ὁ δοῦλος ἐκεῖνος | ho doû-los ekeî-nos} “that servant” recalls the previously mentioned debtor, and the partitive genitive phrase hena tōn syndoulōn autou {ἕνα τῶν συνδούλων αὐτοῦ | hé-na tôn syn-doû-lōn au-toû} “one of his fellow servants” highlights the shared status under the master.
In context — Matthew 18:28
But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him one hundred denarii , and he laid hold of him and began to strangle him, saying, “Repay what you owe.”
