Looking at Aeschylus’s Prometheus Bound for an article, I came across this statement: Speaking of the senselessness of men before Prometheus gave them sense, he describes men as “seeing, they saw amiss, and hearing heard not.” The similarity to Jesus’ description of His reasons for telling parables is pretty striking, though I don’t know if the Greek is as close as my English translation (the Great Books translation — sorry!) makes it sound. Might be worth looking into at some point.
