Stern shows how the parable or mashalâ€"the most distinctive type of narrative in midrashâ€"was composed, how its symbolism works, and how it serves to convey the ideological convictions of the rabbis. He describes its relation to similar tales in other literatures, including the parables of Jesus in the New Testament and kabbalistic parables.
