Download or read book Parables Unplugged written by Lauri Thurén and published by Augsburg Fortress Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The parables of Jesus have long been read either as allegories encoding Christian theology or as tantalizing clues to the authentic voice of Jesus. Thurn proposes instead to read the parables "unplugged" from any assumptions beyond those given in the narrative situation in the text, on the common-sense premise that the very form of the parable works to propose a (sometimes startling) resolution to a particular problem. Thurn applies his method to the parables in Luke, exploring the Evangelist's specific narrative purposes in the use of individual parables.
