From Aesops Fables The Lion, The Ass, and the Fox Reminder: Creature Identification from Previous Fables Lion-Symbol of Pride and Authority Ass-Symbol of Humility and Meekness, But Also a Symbol of Loudness and Annoyance Fox-Thief, Steals from the Vine, Jumping up to Reach the Grapes Jesus-I am the Vine! A Lion, An Ass, and a fox formed a hunting party, and after an exciting chase caught and killed a great stag. All three were hungry, but the lion especially so. Here, friend ass, he roared, divide up the spoils, and lets have our dinner. Im just about starved. The ass was trying his best to divide the carcass into three equal portions when the lion fell upon him with a roar and tore him to pieces. Now, said the lion to the fox, lets see how good you are at dividing the stag into two parts. Taking one look at the remains of the poor ass, the fox said never a word, but made sure that in the division of the meat he left the lions share for the king of beasts and only a mouthful for himself. The lion nodded approvingly. A very fair division, indeed, said he. Who could have taught you to divide so fairly? If I needed any lesson, replied the fox, I had only to look at the body of our late friend, the ass, over yonder. Here in this Parable, The Children of Light symbolize the Ass. Remember that in Oz, Dorothy was known as the Lowly and Meek, as she told the Wizard in Oz. The Lion symbolizes the Authoritative False Doctrine Ministers of Earth And the Fox is the Human who does not know they are stealing from God by not following him and carrying their cross, because they believe His grapes to be sour, Just like the fox in the Fable of the Fox and the Grapes The Lesson we are already learning, is that the Bible is a Fable to be Cracked. And that the lessons of Aesop will help us to do so
