The parables form a substantial part of our Savior's ministry, and this is ample reason for us to give good attention to them. With simple and familiar earthly pictures, Jesus tells us what the kingdom of heaven is like.

 

 

"The author takes each parable and by careful exegesis opens up its rich seam of spiritual instruction, and gives a faithful and solidly Reformed interpretation. He shows us gospel mysteries of immense beauty, power, encouragement, practical relevance, and everlasting worth for citizens of a kingdom that is not of this world."

 

 

What others are saying about this book:

"We trust that the book will be given a wide circulation. May it be a useful instrument as God's kingdom is extended in our world through the power of His Word and Spirit." - The Banner (Feb. 11, 1977)

 

 

"The readers of the Standard Bearer are familiar with the writings of Prof. Hanko who teaches New Testament in the Theological School of the Protestant Reformed Churches. This is the author's first full length book. And it is a good one. On the inside front cover...one reads: "This book is an attempt to interpret the parables in such a way that the Lord's description of their purpose and His guidelines for interpretation are followed. It is in this way, the author believes, that the mysteries of the kingdom will be set forth in their proper light." The author has succeeded admirably in reaching this purpose...While the author does not hesitate to grapple with textual or theological problems wherever necessary, he does so in clear, understandable language. Hence the expositions are exhaustive but never too deep for the believer who may lack formal theological training...[A] worthwhile addition to any library." - Robert Decker

Herman Hanko (1930-2024) served as a minister in the Protestant Reformed Churches from 1955 to 1965, when he was appointed to serve as professor in the Protestant Reformed Seminary in Grandville, MI. He served in that capacity until his retirement in 2001. Until his passing in April 2024, he continued to lecture widely in the USA, the United Kingdom, and other countries, including Singapore and the Philippines. He is the author of several RFPA books.

Favorite childhood book
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
The Rainbow Fish was my absolute favorite book when I was little, so I had to get it for my kids too. The sparkly scales are still just as magical as I remembered and honestly make the whole book feel special. The story is sweet, the illustrations are beautiful, and it’s one of those classic children’s books that actually sticks with you growing up. Reading it now feels really nostalgic for me, and my kids love looking at all the shiny pages. Such a cute book to have in your collection.
