The Parables of Jesus

Student materials

The Parables of Jesus Student Manual - Second edition
Jesus' parables are powerful, profound, and timeless. Each contains the nuances of meaning that can be appreciated fully only when seen through ancient Middle Eastern eyes.

This ten-unit course (with study questions for each unit) explores how Jesus' audience would have understood eleven of His parables as recorded in Luke's Gospel. In doing so, author Harry Wendt draws upon remarkable cultural and historical insights from renowned New Testament scholar and personal friend, Dr. Kenneth Bailey, who spent 40 years living and teaching in Egypt, Lebanon, Jerusalem, and Cyprus.

In this brand-new edition, the written materials and memorable graphics combine to help people gain a deeper understanding of the Kingdom Jesus speaks of in His parables. Soft cover, 8.5" x 11", 102pp.
