AMPLIFIED 2015 | Mark 4:1 Again Jesus began to teach beside the sea [of Galilee]. And a very large crowd gathered around Him, so He got into a boat [anchoring it a short distance out] on the sea and sat down; and the whole crowd was by the sea on the shore. [Matt 13:1-15; Luke 8:4-15] |
Bible Question: Could I get information on parables in Mark 4? |
Bible Answer: Storyword - Thanks for your question. It is difficult to answer, however, because it is so general in nature. About the several parables of Mark 4 much has been written and many sermons preached and lessons taught. Two suggestions: Read the parallel passages in the other two synoptic gospels, in Matthew 13:1-52 and in Luke 8:4-18. On the Web go to Spurgeon.org and click on "Scripture Index" of his sermons. Then click on Matthew, Mark, and Luke respectively and scroll down until you find sermons whose texts fall within the range of these the passages dealing with the parables under consideration in the three gospel accounts. If you are unfamiliar with Spurgeon, you have a treat in store for you! I recommend him highly. He has been called "The Prince of Preachers" for good reason. He had a rare gift of doing with words what a master painter does with brush and oils. --Hank |
