Annotation

Jesus’ parables are a typical form of preaching the Kingdom of God in the Synoptic Gospels. During the course a selection of parables of triple tradition (Mark, Matthew, Luke), of the source Q, and of Matthean and Lukan material will be studied from exegetical and biblical-theological point of view.
