Parables » Jesus Christ speaking in parables
Jesus told the crowds all this in stories, and without a story He told them nothing, to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet: "I will open my mouth in stories, I will utter truths concealed since creation."
With many stories like these He kept on telling them the message, as far as they could understand it. He did not tell them anything except by stories, but to His own disciples He kept on privately explaining everything.
