PARABLE 19 OF 22
Children in the Marketplace
Mattityahu 11:16–19
PARABLE · TO THE CROWDS
This generation is like children calling — we played the flute and you didn't dance, we mourned and you didn't weep.
Yochanan came fasting — they called him demon-possessed. Yeshua came eating — they called Him a glutton. Wisdom is justified by her children — by what is actually born from her teaching, not by the moods of her critics.
