As most readers of the New Testament know, the words of Jesus
are often spoken in riddles--in parables and other sayings that
were and continue to be difficult to understand. In "Jesus the
Riddler," Tom Thatcher explains that Jesus may have been
intentionally ambiguous, using riddles to establish his authority
as a teacher and to encourage his followers to think more deeply
about the nature of truth. Jesus' riddles, like riddles across many
cultures, potentially refer to many different things, and they
challenge those who hear them to decode the meaning the riddler
intends. Figuring out the riddles in which Jesus spoke requires a
depth of faith and close attention to the words of the gospel. With
text boxes and other helpful features, this book guides readers
through discerning these puzzling and important words.
