Bible Note: Dear Brother Tim, That isn't what I saying. Even so, I agree with your assessment of what you THOUGHT I was saying. :-) I further agree that the teaching of Lazarus and Dives is not parabolic -- assuming our definition of a parable is correct -- as you have quite clearly shown. What I meant to say was this: It appears that some parables in Scripture are not explicitly stated as being parabolic. I cited two examples just prior to Lazarus and Dives. This was the notion on which I asked your opinion. :-) In Him, Doc |
