4. A Warning against hasty Professions: Luke 14:25-35.

The journey resumes its course; great crowds follow Jesus. There is consequently an attraction to His side. This appears in the plurals ὄχλοι, multitudes, the adjective πολλοί, and the imperfect of duration συνεπορεύοντο, were accompanying Him. This brief introduction, as in similar cases, gives the key to the following discourse, which embraces: 1 st. A warning (Luke 14:26-27); 2 d. Two parables (Luke 14:28-32); 3 d. A conclusion, clothed in a new figure (Luke 14:33-35).
