Matt. 5:25-26 The payment of debt and the prison referred to here simply mean the normal legal process that one could encounter in our earthly lives. He is teaching on dealing with anger.

In regard to Matt 5 25-26, he is speaking in parable as he does many times in the bible. I think it is consistent to say that sins are forgiven but then have to be cleansed, which is what he talking about repaying in full.
