Parable: a simple story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson, as told by Jesus in the Gospels. "Want to use one of those as the example?" "No, they're too boring, and everyone's heard them. How about the blind men and the elephant, instead?" "Fine! Who cares!" is how I imagine that conversation going.
This #onlinedictionary definition of #word #Parable is really funny to me, bc you think it's going 1 way ( #Jesus told a lot of #parables), and then it goes another way entirely: "The blind men and the elephant."
A parable, granted, but not 1 of Christ's, is it? 🤣
