Publisher's Synopsis
Jesus was a master storyteller, and the parables He told were ingeniously simple stories that had profound spiritual messages concerning the kingdom of God. Because of that, it is crucial for followers of Jesus to understand His parables, but coming to understand them is not always easy. Despite the simplicity of their telling, the parables are complexly interwoven. Here, John MacArthur-a Bible commentator who has spent a lifetime explaining the Word of God in clear and comprehensible terms-helps to explain those stories, their essential lessons, and their relationship to Jesus's message as a whole.
