The Watchtower (study edition), ““Who Really Is the Faithful and Discreet Slave?””
“that slave is made up of a small group of anointed brothers who are directly involved in preparing and dispensing spiritual food during Christ's presence. … In 1919, a time of spiritual revival, Jesus selected capable anointed brothers from among them to be the faithful and discreet slave and appointed them over his domestics.”
Par. 3 states the former understanding: 'At Pentecost 33 C.E., Jesus appointed the faithful slave over his domestics. The slave represents all anointed Christians on earth as a group at any one time since then. The domestics refer to the same anointed ones as individuals.' Par. 13: 'Early in the last days, the domestics were all anointed ones. Later, the domestics came to include the great crowd of other sheep.'
