“[Jesus] "spoke all things in parables, and without a parable he spoke nothing" [to the apostles]; and if "all things were made by him, and without him was not anything made that was made," consequently also prophecy and the law were by him and were spoken by him in parables. "But all things are right," says the Script…”
Clement of Alexandria, 3th c. — The Stromata Book 6

7For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.
— Proverbs 8:9 —
10Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
