Bible Question: Why did jesus speak in parables? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Leadabetter... Welcome to the forum! Jesus' disciples asked that very question in Matthew 13:10. Jesus gave a wonderfully perspicuous answer in Matthew 13:11-17. Every word is in the context of a sentence, every sentence in the context of a pericope, every pericope in the context of a passage, and every passage in the context of a book. Reading things in context will often yield answers even before they need to be asked. In Him, Doc |
