1998 The Pharisee and the Publican, Parables of Christ, by Dr. Jim Dixon

Dr. Jim Dixon discusses the Parable of the Pharisee and the Publican. He explores the themes of pride and humility. The parable contrasts a proud Pharisee who boasts of his righteousness and a humble Publican who acknowledges his sins and seeks God's mercy.  Dr. Dixon emphasizes vertical humility (before God) and horizontal humility (toward others), highlighting the importance of recognizing our need for God's grace and practicing humility in our interactions.
