their eyes had not yet been opened

they didn’t understand Christ’s words

though He was speaking plainly to them

He used metaphors, parables, from their lives

but they could not understand Him

because their eyes had not yet been opened

they would need His death, His resurrection

they would need the breath of the Spirit

for them to gain their vision
