13 When you read about "miracles" in old books, don't assume that the people weren't as smart or sophisticated as you, therefore it must have been fake. These people people in this recent 3 minute video saw what they saw, and didn't make it up to be on the local news.

This isn't Jesus telling a parable. It's a description of an event involving Jesus.
Whoosh. I'll try explaining again. The action taken held a lesson in it, like how a parable does.
So, did the event happen as described in the section or did it not?
Nice example of "seeing, but see not" right there. It's irrelevant if the described action was literal or metaphorical, the important part is the lesson in the action.
So, it's just a made up story then?
How do you distinguish real stories from made up ones in the bible?
