Book Synopsis Discovering the Parables by : Henry G. Covert
Download or read book Discovering the Parables written by Henry G. Covert and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-12-30 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before there were printing presses, copy machines, and email, societies used storytelling to convey beliefs, history, and traditions. This practice preceded the ministry of Jesus and continues today in many cultures. But Jesus was a master of storytelling. His words provide many with guidelines and a road map for living. Using familiar imagery found in nature and other recognizable sources, he engaged his listeners with lessons that confronted every aspect of their lives, providing the tools for self-examination and change. Speaking in parables, however, sometimes caused confusion for his listeners, and readers today may wonder what exactly he meant, and how his words apply to everyday life. This book looks at each of Jesus's parables, explaining the key points, the central themes, and the meanings we can take away from the stories. By considering each parable in depth, the author helps readers come to a better understanding of the teachings of Jesus and what they mean for our lives.

Book excerpt: Narrative or story preaching has called attention to Jesus' parables, since many of those parables are stories. Is there a preacher, especially one who uses the lectionary, who does not preach on a parable from time to time? This book conducts an exegesis of scripture, provides context for each passage, suggests contemporary applications with questions that challenge, and gives preachers sample openings for the composition of a sermon/homily. Richard Gribble, CSC, the author of six books and over 100 articles, is an assistant professor of history at Stonehill College in North Easton, Massachusetts. He has earned degrees from the United States Naval Academy, the University of Southern California, and the Jesuit School of Theology at Berkeley.

Book Synopsis All the Parables of Jesus by : David M. Brown
Download or read book All the Parables of Jesus written by David M. Brown and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like yeast, parables are explosive stories of Jesus that invade our lives and transform us into citizens of the kingdom of God. But they are also cryptic, and that's where this book is useful. More than an explanation or interpretation of each parable, this definitive work is primarily an exercise in hermeneutics. In it, readers are taken through a process of discovering which sayings of Jesus are parables, problematic questions related to counting and categorizing them, and Jesus' rationale for speaking in parables. The work then analyzes four distinct ways that parables are structured and three levels at which they do their work in us. The final chapter presents parable-related hermeneutical guidelines, and the book ends with seven extensive Appendices and two Indexes. It is a "must read" for every biblical scholar!
