Double space Center Bold The Wise and Foolish Bridesmaids: Matthew 25: 1-13 John Doe Box 25 BI121: Introduction to the New Testament Professor Carl Loewen May 1, 2018 Double spaced 1 inch Times New Roman, 12 pt 1 Only print one sided Matthew is the only gospel writer to include in his composition the parable of the Wise and Foolish Bridesmaids. The parable’s initial message is clear: be ready for Christ’s return, as He could come at any time. Uncovering first century religious and political culture is crucial in understanding more fully the meanings and interpretations of this passage. The disciples ask Jesus a poignant question: “When will your return happen, and what will be 1 the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” (Matt. 24:3, NIV) Jesus answers his Inch disciples by speaking of false messiahs, natural disasters, persecution and revival. These two Non- justified chapters comprise a collection of Jesus’s teaching that concentrate on His return and the corresponding preparation of His followers.1 As if to drive home the points He makes in chapter 1 Inch 24, Jesus continues the conversation with parables that are applicable to this subject. The Left justified parable of the Wise and Foolish Bridesmaids stresses “for the last time in the discourse, that Jesus’s coming is unknowable.”2 Headings: Left Justified The Wedding Feast Indent (tab) The key elements in first-century Middle Eastern wedding celebrations were the procession each paragraph and the feast. In this parable, “we are introduced to the scene at the point where the bridegroom is soon expected to arrive and take the bride in festive procession back to his home.”3 The ten bridesmaids would be waiting at the gate to the groom’s house, waiting for the procession to arrive. These bridesmaids would have been the unmarried friends of the bride or groom.4 Use block quotations for citations longer The five girls who are called foolish and who occupy the center of attention in the parable than 5 lines.
