At the transition point in the Olivet Discourse, Jesus beganto teach His disciples that no one would be able to predict when He would return, and so they must always be ready.

To expound upon that theme, He gave a series of fourparables to illustrate the Christian’s need to both be diligent in our current work according to our calling in Christ, and be always prepared for His return. The Master has long been delayed, yet His return is ever imminent.
