Title: The parables of Jesus
Description: In writing this book I have tried to meet the need of the pastor who wishes to consult an evangelical book comprising all the parables of Jesus and the majority of parabolical sayings in the Synoptic Gospels. This book is aimed at the level of the theologically trained pastor. Because technical details have been relegated to footnotes, the text itself can be of great benefit to any serious student of the Bible. The book features a select bibliography and an index which directs the reader to the appropriate sources should he wish to pursue a topic further. Jesus drew verbal pictures of the world around him by telling parables. By teaching in parables he depicted what was happening in real life. That is, he used a story, taken from daily life, using an accepted, familiar setting, to teach a new lesson. - Preface and Introduction.
