Cover of Parables as Poetic Fictions

Parables as Poetic Fictions

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This is a provocative and insightful study of the parables, which treats them as fictitious stories and employs both literary and historical criticism in reading them. Plot and realism are emphasized, the relationship of the parables to the kingdom of God is marginalized, and the metaphorical or symbolic nature of the parables is played down. An important contribution.”
