New Defender's Study Bible Notes

13:35 kept secret. The reference is to Psalm 78:2, which equates “parables” with “dark sayings of old.” That is, things previously kept secret from men are to be revealed only in Christ (note Deuteronomy 29:29), and even then only to those whose hearts were open (Matthew 13:10-17).
