Sinopsis

Foreshadows: Lectures on Our Lord's Parables is a thoughtful exploration of Jesus’ parables as windows into future truth. This volume presents the parables as heavenly messages that illuminate prophecy, miracles, and ethical living for a modern reader.

In these pages, the author emphasizes the parable as a higher, spiritual vehicle for truth, distinct from secular fables. Read about how parables reveal kingdom mysteries to believers while inviting reflection on mercy, repentance, and the heart’s response to God. The collection also contrasts Pharisee and publican with a focus on humility, faith, and the need for God’s mercy.

What you’ll experience
- Clear explanations of how parables point to future events and eternal truths.
- Practical reflections on humility, worship, and the right kind of righteousness.
- Friction between ceremonial show and true devotion, with guidance for daily faith.
- A framework for applying scripture to personal growth and spiritual discernment.

Ideal for readers who want a steady, reverent guide to the parables and their larger biblical message, and for anyone seeking thoughtful, faith‑friendly interpretation.

Excerpt from Foreshadows: Lectures on Our Lord's Parables

And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow; and when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: and when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: but other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? 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. 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. Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which said, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: 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. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. 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. Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catched away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.
