Would anyone else be interested in a Interactive Tool to look up the Parables of Jesus and the other Parables in the Bible?

I thought that this is something that could be added to the Interactive Tools list like the Psalms Explorer or the Proverbs Explorer. It could be limited to the Parables of Jesus, but why not add all the others as well. This Tool would be very useful for those of us that study the parables often.

    Fred,

    Risking that this will appear as a quid pro quo I support this as an excellent idea as I love the parables and deem them worthy of the same treatment extended to Psalms and Proverbs. My only question is towards implementation. Should we be looking for parallels with the OT or Messianic insights or insights for behavior worthy of disciples of Christ or warnings for behavior not befitting Christ followers, well you get my point. The Parables are rich with imagery and interpretable on so many levels it will be interesting to see what kind of interactive would be most suited to translate them collectively into a didactic tool.

    Meanwhile, Jesus kept on growing wiser and more mature, and in favor with God and his fellow man.
