Parable of Ten Virgins

Question

Dear sir

Jesus tells a parable using a picture of 10 virgins going with oil lamps to meet a groom. The groom comes at midnight.

Can you please explain what part of a first century Jewish wedding this refers to?

Thanks.

Jonathan

    I do not know. The parable of Ten Virgins is a Christian one and Just Ask! is a site for questions pertaining to anything to do with Judaism. I think that you might be better served by asking your question to a Christian resource.
