“And the disciples came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?” (Matt. 13:10)

Our Lord often taught using parables so as to convey and illustrate profound, divine truths to people of all walks of life . This is because such easily remembered lessons were rich in imagery, yet deep-set with meaning. They were earthly stories with a heavenly message.
