The Trilogy of Parables in Mt 21:28-22:14: From a Matthean Perspective

This work discusses the meaning of parables and how the OT notion of massal has affected the NT understanding of parabole. The whole work is an application of the historic-critical exegetical method to the Matthean trilogy, so its main focus lies on the historical, literary and cultural backgrounds that give the parables their allegorical flavour.
