The Reason For The Parables

¹⁰ And when he was alone they who were about him with the twelve questioned him as to the parables; ¹¹ and he was saying unto them - To you, the sacred secret hath been given of the kingdom of God, whereas, to them who are outside, in parables are all things coming to pass, - that ¹² They may surely look and yet not see, and surely hear and yet not understand, lest once they should return and it be forgiven them.
