The Parables And Teaching Of JesusSample

The Parable of the Ten Virgins
It was customary for a couple’s engagement to last about one year in Jewish tradition. After the engagement was complete, the groom would proceed to the house of his bride, escort her back to his home and begin a seven-day marriage festival. Preparation for the unexpected hour of the groom’s arrival was part of the local customs.
