Excerpt from Lessons on the Parables of the Saviour
The leading design that has directed the preparation of the volume has been to provide a text-book of instruction for the young, corresponding, in its spiritual tone and simply Christian aim, with those teachings which, it is believed, are at present addressed to the grown persons of our congregations by sincere and earnest men. It is the confident belief of the writer, that a deep wrong is done to children when they are treated as incapable of grasping the great points of spiritual doctrine revealed in the N ew Testament, and are put of with the external matters of geography, history, or passages committed to a verbal memory as if to be Christians were something that they must wait for, as an attainment of later years.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the parables spoken by Jesus Christ in the New Testament. Written by an expert in the field, it traces the development of the parable as a literary form throughout ancient Near Eastern history before examining its use and significance in Jesus' teachings. The author focuses on the literary structure of each parable, its relationship to traditional forms of parables, and how Jesus used the form to communicate deeper spiritual truths. Jesus' parables are treated not merely as didactic devices, but as fully realized literary works of art, imbued with theological meaning. They variously instruct, inspire, challenge, and invite the reader to question the nature of God, humanity, and grace. Ultimately, this book demonstrates how Jesus' parables are a potent and enduring form of narrative that continues to yield new insights into the themes of faithfulness, repentance, trust, love, and community.
