The Greek word for "parable" is "παραβολή" (parabolē), which means a comparison or analogy. Parables were a common teaching tool in Jewish tradition, used to convey deep spiritual truths through simple, relatable stories.

This method of teaching invites listeners to engage deeply, reflecting on the account to uncover its meaning.
