[10:6]  ¹ sn A parable is a fairly short narrative that has symbolic meaning. The Greek word παροιμίαν (paroimian) is used again in 16:25, 29. This term does not occur in the synoptic gospels, where παραβολή (parabolh) is used. Nevertheless it is similar, denoting a short narrative with figurative or symbolic meaning.

[13:7]  ⁴ tn Grk “answered and said to him.”

[13:7]  ⁵ tn Grk “You do not know.”
