The parables of Jesus are usually concerned with spiritual truths rather than morals. Parables are a way of teaching spiritual truths. The spiritual truth is hidden in stories of everyday life - "an earthly story with a heavenly meaning." The real meaning of the parable is hidden to those who are not seeking spiritual truth or are not willing to think about the parable.

The parable of the Lost Coin is the second parable in a group of three parables - The Lost Sheep, The Lost Coin and the Lost Son. These three parables are about God's love for people who are lost and, in the context of the parables, God's love for the 'lost' nation of Israel.

These three parables are about God's love for people who are lost and, in the context of the parables, God's love for the 'lost' nation of Israel. The father in the parable represents God. The youngest son represents Israel and the oldest son represents the Pharisees and the scribes. The parable was told because of the attitudes of the scribes and Pharisees.

What is the meaning of the parable of the woman with the lost coin?

The parable of the Lost Coin is the second parable in a group of three parables - The Lost Sheep, The Lost Coin and the Lost Son. If you look at the context of the parables, you will see the parables are specifically about God's love for the 'lost' nation of Israel. Jesus tells these parables in response to a complaint by the scribes and Pharisees that He is associating with common people Luke 15:1-3 Then all the tax collectors and the sinners drew near to Him to hear Him. And the Pharisees and scribes complained, saying, "This Man receives sinners and eats with them." So He spoke this parable to them, saying: Apart from the primary application to Israel, these three parables are about God's love for people who are lost.
