One is known as the sweetening parable,
that is to say a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. Thus, when the aim is to preach to the people, to guide them along the bitter,
arduous path of upholding burdensome precepts and prohibitions, a tale can lighten the load, make the medicine
easier to swallow.
