Story telling is an age-old tradition used to teach lessons. Stories are sometimes referred to as myths, fables, riddles, epics, and the like. In both Jewish and Christian tradition, when individuals wanted to explain a spiritual truth, they used stories known as parables. In this book, we will examine the parables of the hidden treasure, the pearl of great price, and the unmerciful servant. Readers will discover the value of the kingdom of God and the importance of forgiveness.

A parable is a simple story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson, as told by Jesus in the Gospels. It generally features human characters. Parables were used by our Lord Jesus Christ for illustrative purposes to be able to educate people in simplicity about the kingdom of God. It is written that Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables; and without a parable He did not speak to them, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet (in Psalms 78:2) saying: I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world (Matthew 13:34-35). There are about five types of parables: those from nature, those about work and wages, about open and closed doors, about weddings and feasts and those about lost and found like the father and son. A few of them are covered in this book without any order.

A thoroughly researched and deeply insightful exploration of Jesus’ teachings from the Gospels. Over a third of the Gospels by Matthew, Mark, and Luke contain Jesus’ parables. In the Book of Matthew, we learn that this style of teaching fulfilled G-d’s prophecy: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world." But how do we best interpret these vital lessons? The Parables of Jesus Explained offers a close reading of fifty two parables from the Bible. Author Stephen Tvedten explains that a parable is a word-picture which uses an earthly image or story to illustrate a spiritual truth or lesson. It creates a mini-drama that helps define the unknown and unseen by using both the visible and the known. This volume includes close readings of some of the best-known parables, such as The Parable of the Good Samaritan and The Parable of the Prodigal Son, as well as lesser-known stories, such as The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant.

Excerpt from The Parables of Jesus In the Old Testament it denotes an obscure or enigmatical saying, as in Ps. Ixxviii. 2: "I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old;" also a fictitious narrative invented for the purpose of conveying truth in a less offensive or more engaging form than that of direct assertion, as in Nathan's reproof of David (2 Sam. xii.1-4), Jotham's exposure of the folly of the Shechcmites (Judg. ix.7-15), and the address by Jehoash to Amaziah (2 Kings xiv.9, 10).It is generally employed in the New Testament in this latter sense. It has been supposed, indeed, that some of the parabls uttered by our Saviour narrate real and not fictitious events; but whether this was the case or not is a point of no consequence. Each of his parables was essentially true. It was true to human nature, and nothing more was necessary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Have we really fully understood the parables that were narrated by the Lord Jesus? Many have studied these stories and quite a number have found them enigmatic; riddles that have defied complete explanation. Some parables even appear to contradict each other. But are the parables only those that were told by Jesus? Consider what God ordered Isaiah, the prophet, to write:Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.Psalm 78:1-3In these verses, it is clear that there are ancient parables. Were they just handed down from generation to generation orally, or are they recorded somewhere within the pages of the Bible? Might it just be possible that there is a separate record of these stories?This book will show the “master key,” so the reader might fully understand the parables of the Messiah and the messages that are locked within those narratives. This “master key” will also open the door so the parables that were recorded in ancient times may be found; and also, that they may be explained.

Tending the Fire at the Center of the World engages the central question of Christian formation, that is, what kind of knowing is most likely to awaken and sustain Christian faith? This book seeks to reclaim aesthetics—beauty and creativity—as the church’s most native theological way of knowing and being, which participates with God’s own glory and creativity. This book traces the prominence of aesthetics up until the dawn of the Enlightenment, including recent theologians who reclaim aesthetics for theology and formation. The book elaborates the aims and techniques of aesthetic approaches to teaching and learning in the church. Finally, this book cautions against overly determined rationalisms and moralisms that do not retain a sense of wonder, delight, and openness in the church’s teaching, liturgy, and proclamation. In this view, the church does not simply regurgitate familiar texts, political tropes, or flattened doctrines but breaks into the world as Christ’s body, a parable, a song, a flash mob, interrupting business as usual, giving new expression to acts of care, repentance, forgiveness, joy, and communion, awake to the beauty of God’s gifts and inviting our worship.

When Adrien Nocent's The Liturgical Year was published in the 1970s, it was the very first comprehensive commentary on the three-year lectionary in relation to the Sacramentary/Missal as these were revised following the Second Vatican Council. Expressed on nearly every page was Nocent's conviction that the liturgy and the Word of God proclaimed within it have something important to say to real people of every culture and time. He constantly returns to the question: What does this passage have to say to us today? Now this extraordinary work of applied, postconciliar liturgical scholarship has been emended and annotated by one of today's leading liturgical scholars. Paul Turner has provided many helpful explanatory notes on history, culture, language, and, of course, liturgy. He has also updated the liturgical texts to conform to The Roman Missal, Third Edition. The result is a resource that promises to enrich and inspire a new generation of presiders, preachers, liturgy planners, and students. On the fiftieth anniversary of Vatican II's Sacrosanctum Concilium, encounter the vibrant scholarship and pastoral wisdom of Adrien Nocent's The Liturgical Year again or for the first time! Volume 3 covers all of the Sundays of Ordinary Time.

The Commentary on the Gospel According to St. Matthew is a translation of Saint Thomas Aquinas' lectures on the Gospel of Saint Matthew given in Paris in approximately the year 1270.

It will be a useful commentary for Catholics and non-Catholics, but especially as an aid for preaching sermons. Numerous explanations and cross references to other works of St. Thomas are given in the text. St. Thomas is a master of Scripture and the Church Fathers, which are continuously interwoven in this simple but profoundly enlightening text.
