Psalm 78:2

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:

I will incline mine ear to a parable; I will declare my enigma upon the harp.

Therefore, I speak to them in parables because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

To understand a parable and the interpretation; the words of the wise and their enigmas.

He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it is not given.

But without a parable he did not speak unto them; and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

and he opened his mouth and taught them, saying,

For there is nothing hid which shall not be manifested; nor secret which shall not be exposed.
