    Comments: Because of the possible symbolic numerical values used in the Parable of the Dishonest Steward, it is important to retain the numerals, while making some adjustment in the case of the term βάτος. Accordingly, one may speak of ‘one hundred barrels of olive oil’ or ‘one hundred containers of olive oil’ or ‘one hundred large jars of olive oil.’
