“I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings from of old.”

“I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world.”

“He said nothing to them without a parable.”

“This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.”

“You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never perceive. For this people’s heart has grown dull and with their ears they can barely hear, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.”

“Many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.”

“If you’re not praying, you’re not listening” - Fr. Luke Mata
