Abstract
Luke's parable frames clarify theologically the unruly metonymic world of Luke's parables with their economic sketches of life's ambiguities and contradictions. The L parables retain the diffuse particulars of their world, but these particulars are re-framed theologically within the kerygma of gospel narrative. The parable denouements are interpreted theologically. The ethical, rhetorical and theological directions attributed to the L parables belong to their gospel narrative framing and resolution, not the parable plots, which sustain metonymic destiny in their fluctuatiing points of reference. The L parables are frequently used to illustrate extravagant claims for parables as metaphors that dramatically shatter one's world to disclose the kingdom of God. However, without their frames, these stories can be interpreted in any direction.
