Product Overview
Author: Douglas G. Clarke
"More Stories That Are Seen" is a valuable addition to the study of Jesus parables. The book contextualises the meaning of the parables within first century Palestine in relation to other New Testament books and to each other.
The reader is also invited to engage with the parable, and reflect on what each parable might mean in today’s world. As Jesus used parables to evoke a response from his hearers, similarly this book challenged us to respond to God and to God’s call for the poor and marginalised people in our communities.
Doug Clarke has done us a great service in presenting the parables in such a vibrant and experiential way.
