Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This chapter records three parables of Jesus Christ: the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost or ‘prodigal’ son, a trilogy about redemption that Jesus tells after the Pharisees and religious leaders accuse him of welcoming and eating with “sinners".
Detailed explanation-2: -In the gospel of Matthew, Jesus asked His listeners to understand an intangible reality they couldn’t see with their physical eyes-the kingdom of God. He knew they could only engage this reality with the eyes of their hearts, so He chose to use stories-what we commonly call parables-to illustrate His meaning.
