Jesus’ Parables |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Jesus often used spiritually significant fictional narratives called parables to illustrate his teachings. Some biblical scholars believe that these parables, often stories about simple, everyday events, constitute a distinct literary form. In the “Parable of the Sower,” printed here, Jesus tells a story about seeds scattered on the ground and left to grow. He later reveals that the scattered seeds represent the people who hear God’s message. | ||||||
