"Bella, prof!" LIVE - La parabola delle dieci vergini

Let's read together Chapter 25 of the Gospel of Matthew. After a brief absence, the professor is back live. We're talking about Jesus' final discourse according to Matthew, and especially the parable of the ten virgins, also known as the parable of the wise and foolish virgins (Matthew 25:1-13). The interpretation of the parable revolves around the symbolic value of oil, which refers to biblical wisdom, understood as the practical ability to face life and its responsibilities with diligence and tenacity. The fact that women are at the center of the story is a reference to the famous passage in Proverbs 31 dedicated to the "perfect woman," who, among the many praiseworthy things she does, never allows the light of her lamp to go out.
