Those Who Have Been “Walking” in “Darkness” Have Seen a Great “Light”

This is the sixth in a series of articles that explain the meaning of Jesus’ parables in terms of the parabolic imagery and Hebrew idioms the Prophets used. The first five articles appeared in the January 1998, October 1998, October 2003, October 2004, and January 2005 issues.
