Parables & How They Function Jesus’ Parables Parables & How They Function Parables in Matthew

What are parables? Dictionary: “A parable is a short, fictitious story that illustrates a moral attitude or a religious principle.” NT usage: “A rather broad genre of illustration, including parable (narrow definition), allegory, similitude, and sample parable, as well as proverb and paradox.”

How parables work Parables are Stories. They are designed artistically by their creator to be interesting by using the standard devices of storytelling. Parables are Analogies, verbal comparisons that combine a tenor, a vehicle, and one or more points of resemblance in a structure of logic especially suited to serve as illustration or argument.

Parables as stories brief unified limited number of actors (often only two) direct discourse serial development rule of three repetition binary opposition (black vs white) end-stress often resolution by reversal usually two-level

Wheat & weeds matt 13:24-30 Story: A man sows good seed in his field, his enemy secretly sows weeds on top of them. When discovered, the man's slaves want to remedy the situation right away, but the owner has them wait until the harvest. Tenor: “The kingdom of heaven is like...” Jesus’ subject is the kingdom of heaven. He is telling us about certain features of its (future) history, apparently.

Wheat & weeds Vehicle: The story above is the vehicle. Jesus is telling us about the kingdom of heaven (heavenly subject) by means of an (earthly) agricultural story of an enemy's attempt to spite his neighbor by ruining his crop with weeds. Point(s) of Resemblance: Jesus' story has a number of points of resemblance, not just one, though one of them may well be the main point. What kinds of analogies and points of resemblance can we find? See Matthew 13: 24-30, 36-43.
