Renee:
I'm suddenly reminded of the New Testament parable of the ungrateful 
servant, whose huge debt is canceled by his master but who throws 
the man who owns him a small amount into prison when this man can't 
pay it back. Snape, a former Death-eater, saved from Azkaban by 
Dumbledore, wants to deliver Lupin (whose personal debt to him is 
relatively small compared to the crimes committed by the average 
Death-eater) to the Dementors, possibly to be Kissed. In the 
parable, the ungrateful servant's fate is not happy. For Snape's 
sake, I really do hope the analogy isn't intentional.
