The Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30) is nearly identical to the Parable of the Ten Minas (Luke 19:11-27).

One major change is that the values and quantities of the money is very different in each parable, as well as the number of slaves.

Why did Jesus choose such different figures for two renditions of what is basically the same parable?
