Learning to Read the Bible, Week 23; Eyes to See, Ears to Hear
Manage episode 432661497 series 2432567
Sermon: Eyes to See, Ears to Hear
Scripture: Matthew 13:10-17
Speaker: Rev. Dan Wunderlich
Description: The parables of Jesus are some of the most beloved and well-known passages in the Gospel accounts, if not the entire Bible. Just about everyone knows what a “Good Samaritan” is even if they don’t know where it comes from. But, in a refrain that has been repeated throughout this series, what if our common understanding of the parables is actually a misunderstanding?
Sermon Series: Learning to Read the Bible
Even if we accept that the Bible is not a textbook or moral instruction manual, we can still desire more clarity. For example, why are so many details in some of the stories either vague or missing completely? It turns out that this isn’t a mistake or just some cultural quirk of ancient literature, but it is an intentional tool of the biblical authors.
