Some of these parables and stories are the same as previous, but the one about Zaccheus stands out today. I remember the song from when we were kids and I have been wondering up to this point why we hadn't read about him yet. I guess the others didn't see him as important. However, he repents and Jesus forgives him for the wrongs that he has done.
More words of wisdom. I feel like at this point we are just getting different sayings for some of the same things. It feels a bit repetitive.

Jesus predicts his death a third time. A blind man receives his sight due to his faith. I don't recall anyone else talking about Zacchaeus either. And I hadn't thought about that song in a very long time. It seems you are right, he was not seen as important but is forgiven by Jesus. The ten minas one sounds like others we have read about being a good steward, but this one ends terribly by the king wanting to kill people. I don't recall that in previous versions.
It is a bit repetitive. This one seems to be talking alot about giving things to fools.
