Publisher's Synopsis
The Parables of the Kingdom is a book written by George Campbell Morgan, originally published in 1907. The book is a collection of sermons and lectures given by Morgan on the parables of Jesus Christ. The parables are stories told by Jesus to illustrate moral and spiritual lessons, and are considered an important part of Christian teaching. In this book, Morgan offers a detailed analysis of the parables, exploring their meaning and significance in the context of the time in which they were told. He examines each parable individually, providing historical and cultural context, as well as insights into the deeper spiritual meanings that can be gleaned from each story. The Parables of the Kingdom is divided into three parts. The first part focuses on the parables of the sower, the tares, the mustard seed, and the leaven. The second part examines the parables of the hidden treasure, the pearl of great price, and the net. The third part covers the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, the prodigal son, and the unjust steward. Throughout the book, Morgan emphasizes the importance of understanding the parables in the context of Jesus' teachings as a whole. He argues that the parables are not merely moral fables, but are instead part of a larger message about the nature of God and his kingdom. Overall, The Parables of the Kingdom is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the parables of Jesus Christ. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of these important stories and their significance in Christian teaching.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
