The reason Yeshua used parables

Mat 13:34–35

13:34 The reason Yeshua used parables

(Mark 4:33-34)

34 Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) told all these things to the crowds in the form of parables. In fact he said nothing that wasn’t a parable, 35 so that what had been written by the prophet would be fulfilled:

‘I will be saying things that have been hidden since the creation of the world.’[ref]

34 The Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) spoke all these things in parables to_the crowds, and he_was_speaking nothing to_them without a_parable,
35 so_that the message may_be_fulfilled having_been_spoken by the prophet saying:
I_will_be_opening_up the mouth of_me in parables, I_will_be_uttering things having_been_hidden from the_foundation of_the_world.

Mark 4:33–34

33 ⇔And so as much as they could handle it, Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) shared the good message with them via many similar word pictures. 34 He never spoke without those illustrations, but he explained all of them to his close followers.
