In many cases, however, Jesus took the time to ask questions in order to convey truths, to get his listeners to express what was in their hearts, and to stimulate and train the thinking of his disciples.
Akan tetapi, pada banyak kesempatan, Yesus menyediakan waktu untuk mengajukan pertanyaan - pertanyaan agar dapat menyampaikan kebenaran, membuat para pendengarnya mengungkapkan isi hati mereka, dan merangsang serta melatih cara berpikir murid - muridnya.
