Mmm. Bready

13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is
like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of
meal, till the whole was leavened.

This supports my sourdough Jesus theory. (The reason it took him three days to rise after being beaten down)

He is rather bread-obsessed. Guess it runs in the family, though with dad, it was goats.

Odd though, the only other bread-obsessed entity I know of is Talkie Toaster and it was quite plainly stated that he did NOT have a belief-chip installed.

Bread was an important staple item at the time. Parables were meant to be stories the common man could understand, and what is the lowest common denominator but food.

A good modern example would be "Life is like a box of chocolates." If you've ever eaten boxed chocolates, you understand what it means.
