The parables of Jesus include figurative sayings, similitudes, and story-parables. Things that Jesus said treats parables of Jesus in all four Gospels. Usually, most scholars think of parables restricted to the first three Gospels, the Synoptic Gospels. The first half of this book examines Synoptic parables about the coming and growth, grace and mercy, citizens and crisis of the kingdom of God. Unusually, a few scholars identify parables in the Fourth Gospel. This book is in the unusual category. In the second half there is an analysis of Johannine parables about the coming, enduring love, sharers and crisis of the life of the age that comes in Jesus.
