Hi All,
Mt 13:11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Mt 13:12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
Mt 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Mt 13:14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
Mt 13:15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Mt 13:16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
Mt 13:17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Mt 13:18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
Mr 4:13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?
What is this key to "all parables" that Jesus is speaking of? Is it the few keys to the symbols of his parable that he gives his disciples? No, it can't be there are not enough there to be the keys to all of His parables, let alone "All Parables."
He must mean something else.
The "Mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven" is Allegory Itself. That is what he is showing them.
In the woodcut above is a Mystic. Always looking behind the scenes to see what is really taking place. What is really being said. Never letting his eyes and attention rest on the "appearance of things."
Searching for why God "said this",.. what did He mean by this.
Whether in Scripture or the world around us we should look for the Allegory. Not looking at the symbol alone but at the Reality that the symbol points to. Because whether we are speaking of the bible itself or the very universe around us,.. It was all fashoned by the Word of God and allegory is a tool that is used when the creating with words.
It makes a much bigger impact when the answer of what is being symbolised by the symbol is given.
As Jesus gave the answers to the disciples, ..And continues to give them to his disciples today.
Unto him that hath shall more be given...use it or lose it.
