4:10 Why Yeshua speaks in parables

(Mat. 13:10-17, Luke 8:9-10)

10 And when the crowd had left, the twelve apprentices asked him about the parables. 11 And he told them, “You’ve been given understanding about God’s kingdom, but for others, they’ll get it in parables

12 [ref]so that when they look they might see but not perceive,

and when they listen, they might hear but not understand,

otherwise they might turn from their sins and be forgiven.”

4:12: Isa 6:9-10 (LXX).

10 And when he _became down/against/according _to alone, they with the twelve about him were _asking him the parables.
11 And he _was _saying to _them:
The mystery of _the kingdom of_ the _god has _been _given to _you _all, but to _those who are outside, all the things is _becoming in parables, 12 in _order _that seeing, they _may _be _seeing and may_ not _perceive, and hearing, they _may _be _hearing and may_ not _be _understanding, lest they _may _turn _back and it _may _be _forgiven to _them.
