John 10:6

Context
10:6 Jesus told them this parable, 1  but they 2  did not understand 3  what he was saying to them.

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.

2 tn Grk “these.”

3 tn Or “comprehend.”
