| Summary: | This article deals mainly with four parables and proverbs attributed to Jesus, their synoptic parallels and their relationship to rabbinic literature: the parable of the wedding (Mt. 22.1-13//Lk. 14.15-24), the parable of the friend at midnight (Lk. 11.5-8) and the parable of the unjust judge (Lk. 18.1-7), and judging the judge and measure for measure (Mt. 7.1-5//Lk. 6.37-41//Mk 4.24-25). These parables and proverbs are treated as divergent versions of traditions, similar to the versions of traditions in rabbinic literature, and they are carefully compared with striking parallels in the latter. The integrative study of New Testament passages and rabbinic literature illuminates both and sheds light on the complexity, pluriformity, and religious message of these traditions. |
