The word "parable" comes from the Greek "''παραβολή''" (''parabolē''), the name given by [[Greek]] [[Rhetoric|rhetorician]]s to any fictive illustration in the form of a brief narrative. Later it came to mean a fictitious [[narrative]], generally referring to something that might naturally occur, by which [[spiritual]] and [[moral]] matters might be conveyed.
