The contributors to this volume offer a fresh perspective on Jesus's parables, viewing them as persuasive tools rather than merely informative stories. They examine how these parables engaged audiences both emotionally and intellectually, aiming to persuade rather than simply teach, within their original Jewish and Greek cultural context.
