I was actually looking for that and about to ask a question specifically about the parable's source or format as I had also heard it was a common type of story. Back to this question though, i don't really get how the story is just about wealth. I would think having the knowledge that the story was a common one used and known by the Pharisees would strengthen the conclusion that Jesus was using the story against them specifically for their unbelief. He often twists things against them like that. | |
