From Intro: The love of the Jews for poetic fiction can be traced as far back as the oldest records of our literature. It can be found in the parables and tales of the Bible, like that of Jotham (Judg 9.7 ff.) who told the story of the trees choosing a king; or the parables of the prophet Nathan II Sam. 12.1 ff), who, in rebuking King David, told the story of the poor man's lamb; or that of Jehoash, the king of Israel, who refused to meet Amaziah, the King of Judah (II Kings 14.9 ff.); and many more examples can be adduced to show the love of the people in ancient times for the poetical tale.
