Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Gospel According to St. Luke 18-24: A Devotional Commentary "And He spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank Thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. And the publican, standing afar oil, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, hut smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased: and he that exalteth himself shall be exalted. - Luke xviii. 9 - 14. We call this a parable but is it really such? Might it not be a slice out of life? It has been pointed out that our Lords parables are of two kinds. Some are more cryptic: the outward story has a hidden meaning which needs to be unfolded before the Master´s message in the story is made plain - the parable of the sower is of this type. Probably these were intended to fulfil a sifting purpose, alluring those of Christ´s hearers who were intellectually in earnest and intent upon discovery. Other parables are more direct: their intention is not in the least concealed: they are their own interpretation.
