Do you not understand this parable? is a question Jesus posed to
his disciples (Mark 4:13). Just as the first disciples often did
not understand Jesus ' many parables, so it is for listeners and
readers nearly two thousand years later. In Parables of the
Kingdom, Mary Ann Getty-Sullivan helps readers to hear and see and
understand the parables of Jesus. She offers a general introduction
to the use of parables in the life and ministry of Jesus and the
early church. In addition, Getty-Sullivan helps readers learn to
interpret parables, to enter into what the parables can reveal
about Jesus and his audience, about the evangelists and their
communities, and about how we are to understand the Kingdom of God
today. Parables of the Kingdom helps us hear and see Jesus '
parables with new eyes and renewed hearts 'thereby allowing the
parables to transform our lives and help us respond with new
conviction to the gospel's power in our world. Mary Ann
Getty-Sullivan holds an S.T.D. from the Catholic University of
Louvain in Belgium. She has been teaching New Testament courses in
colleges and seminaries for more than thirty years and has recently
retired from teaching full time to devote more time to writing and
lecturing. Mary Ann has written several commentaries on the Letters
of Saint Paul. Her recent books include Women in the New Testament
published by Liturgical Press.
