Mark 4:13
Arabic Bible ERV 2009
ما معنى هذا؟
In Mark 4:13, Jesus asks his disciples if they understand a parable He has just told them. If they don't understand this one, how can they grasp the meaning of any other parables? The key message is that understanding each parable is essential for grasping all of Christ's teachings.

Imagine you have a big puzzle with many pieces. Jesus tells a story (parable), like a piece of that puzzle. If you don't understand this piece, it might be hard to see how the whole picture fits together later on.
