Excerpt from The Rich Man and Lazarus

We are accustomed to speak of this passage as the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. This is the common way of referring to it; and yet, some interpreters maintain that the passage is not a para ble, but a historical narrative. This, then, seems to be the proper subject to discuss first.

It may seem uncharitable, but we have sometimes had our doubts, as to the integrity and sincerity of those who say this is not a parable; for at times they will refer to the passage inadvertantly, as every body else does, as the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, at the same time that they declare it to be history and not a parable.
