Why Jesus Used Parables
10 When He was alone with the Twelve,(A) those who were around Him asked Him about the parables.(B) 11 He answered them, “The secret(C) of the kingdom of God(D) has been given to you, but to those outside,(E) everything comes in parables 12 so that
they may look and look,
yet not perceive;
they may listen and listen,
yet not understand;(F)
otherwise, they might turn back—
and be forgiven.”[a](G)[b]
