'Using' in the Bible

“Ah!” His disciples said. “Now You’re speaking plainly and not using any figurative language.

I am using a human analogy because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you offered the parts of yourselves as slaves to moral impurity, and to greater and greater lawlessness, so now offer them as slaves to righteousness, which results in sanctification.

Brothers, I’m using a human illustration. No one sets aside or makes additions to even a human covenant that has been ratified.
