# Connecting Statement:
Jesus continues to explain to his disciples why he teaches in parables.
# to them ... they
All occurrences of "them" and "they" refer to the people in the crowd.
# Though they are seeing, they do not see; and though they are hearing, they do not hear, or understand.
Jesus uses this parallelism to tell and emphasize to the disciples that the crowd refuses to understand God's truth. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])
