In the book of Matthew, Jesus Christ 2000 years ago, spoke a parable as follows in Matthew 13:34-35, Jesus spoke all of these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: " I will open my mouth in parables. I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world".
A parable is a story with a hidden meaning or message. Jesus Christ spoke a parable that was hidden since the creation of the world. Out of the 66 books in the Bible, the book of Genesis depicts the creation story. Let's go to Genesis to understand what was hidden.
Genesis 2:16-17 reads, And the Lord God commanded the man: " You are free to eat from any tree in the garden but you must not eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.
We are all too familiar with the story of Adam and Eve. As we know, Adam and Eve were tempted by Satan and ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil from which God commanded them not to eat from. Before eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, Adam and Eve were immortal (eternal life) beings. However, as soon as they came to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil they became mortal beings. They lost eternal life and now come to face death. The tree of knowledge of good and evil did not contain some type of poison. God's words commanding them,... for when you eat of it you will surely die" resulted in death because of disobedience. This is our situation too. We had eternal life in the kingdom of heaven but because we disobeyed God and followed the schemes of Satan, we were sent to this earth putting on the flesh to ultimately face death.
But is this what Jesus Christ was trying to tell us that was hidden? No. However, Adam and Eve's problem of death is just like our problem. Where can the solution of death be found? If we think of it this way, if a crime is committed in California, the detectives on the case will search for evidence in California, not in Texas. In the same way, the problem of death originated in the Garden of Eden so where must the solution be?
