"Jesus's disciples ask him to explain it. Because they're like, we don't understand parables. Jesus can you help us. Because parables are actually much harder than we think they are."
-I'm a simple fisherman, your parables frighten and confuse me. My primitive mind can't grasp these concepts. Even similes and extended metaphors make me want to run to the hills in the wilderness and hide in a cave like David hid from Saul.
Sorry...my mind wandered for a minute. Please continue, Scott!

one funny quip I still think about from http://twitter.com over 10 years ago…
Thomas sits at a bar talking to no one in particular “doubt a guy one time, you get a nickname. Deny a guy three times, they make you pope.”
33:25 "Could [Peter] have had a scribe helping him? For Pete's sake!"
Exactly!
always felt Thomas gets a raw deal. he was doubting the other Apostles since even after seeing Jesus, they are still hiding behind a locked door.
