(Matthew 25:1-13) As Jesus taught His disciples on the Mount of Olives about His return to earth at the end of the age, He spoke two parables demonstrating the need for His servants to be wise and faithful as they awaited His coming. In this study, we look at the first of these parables, the parable of the ten virgins that pictures wise servants.
In this series, we study Jesus' use of parables as a teaching tool, looking at how and why Jesus used parables, as well as examining the major parables recorded in the synoptic gospels.
