#9 – What You Talking About, Jesus?

Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley discuss the parables. The parables of Jesus are central to Matthew’s Gospel and valuable to biblical study. But what are they and how should we read them?

Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • What is a parable? How does Jesus use them?
  • What are some common features of parables?
  • What are some modern day parables?
  • Why does Jesus use secretive ways of speaking? Shouldn’t he want to speak simply so everyone can understand him?
  • Looking at Matthew 13, it looks like one big stack of parables. What’s going on in this passage? 
  • If someone is reading through the gospels and comes across a parable, what should they do?

Helpful Definitions:

  • Parable: A deceptively simple story that is used to illustrate a truth.
