Excerpt from An Exposition of the Parables and of Other Parts of the Gospels, Vol. 5 of 5: Part II
With regard to any other instances of the use of the word parable, or aapafioxh, in the Gospels I think I shall best illustrate it, by premising an explanation of the use and meaning of the word wapafiokh, as em ployed by the writers on rhetoric, anciently, and especially by Aristotle - to describe a peculiar kind of reasoning. Those who have attended critically to the minutiae of style, and peculiarities of idiom in the four Gospels - and especially in St. Luke's - must have remarked the occurrence of certain words in his use of terms, which are not to be met with in the prose Greek authors - but only in the poets.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the parables of Jesus, categorizing and discussing them according to their allegorical or moral content. The author begins with an analysis of how the parables fit within the broader scope of Jesus' teachings. Jesus' parables, the author argues, are not simply stories, but powerful and complex rhetorical devices that explore the nature of truth, society, and faith. Parables, by their very nature, are brief and often enigmatic, and thus carry a significance that is not immediately obvious. The author further reveals the surprising variety of contexts in which parables are used in the Bible, as well as the breadth of their historical and cultural impact.
