In this new and expanded edition of Interpreting the Parables, Craig Blomberg evaluates contemporary critical approaches to the parables-including those that have emerged in the twenty years since the first
edition was published.
Taking on the prevailing views of C. H. Dodd and Joachim Jeremias, Blomberg argues for a limited allegorical approach to the parables. This widely used text has taken a minority perspective and made it mainstream, with Blomberg ably defending his approach and offering brief interpreta- tions of all the major parables.
Interpreting the Parables can be read with profit by scholars, students, pastors and educated laypeople.
