Matthew 13:35

This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:
"I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world [Gk. apo kosmos katabole – i.e., from the Fall when God's orderly world system was destroyed]."
[Quoted from Ps. 78:2, written by Asaph.] [Although Jesus had already explained why he spoke in parables to the people, see verses 10-17, Matthew emphasizes this with a reference from the Old Testament. Since Jesus used different teaching styles later on, the statement that Jesus only used parables mainly refers to this teaching occasion, see e.g. Matt. 15:3–9; 19:3–12.]
