Wesley's Notes for Luke 14:5


14:3 And Jesus answering, spake - Answering the thoughts which he saw rising in their hearts.

14:7 He spake a parable - The ensuing discourse is so termed, because several parts are not to be understood literally. The general scope of it is, Not only at a marriage feast, but on every occasion, he that exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that abaseth himself shall be exalted.
