Summary: A little lesson in literary forms this week; we need to distinguish between allegory and parable, particularly as used by Jesus of Nazareth. This allegory may stem from the early church, according to some commentators, but there's every reason to think that Jesus said it. The ultimate question is, what does it mean for us and how are we to take it, since it is historically located in his time? Listen in with Fr. Gabriel Rochelle.
