This is interesting concerning Jesus teaching of the parable I found!
This area that Jesus was teaching in was a bay that was surrounded on three sides by lowland. Behind this low ground the rocks rose behind them forming a natural basin which had acoustical properties that formed a natural amphitheater.
As Jesus went a short distance to the center of the bay, when He spoke the sound bounced around the three rock walls behind the people and Thus all could here Jesus' words because the shape of the landscape made the area to be like a theater which bounces the sounds off of a solid surface and makes the sound carry very well.
To this very day, there are places in nature that you can go and because of the landscape you can hear a normal tone voice up to a mile away. It is from this, that mankind learned how to design theaters were-by the singers and actors could be heard by all the people in a theater before the days of modern electronic amplification.
Some people would have just read over the first verse above, but in seeing it in the completeness that is in, we can better see the truth that God has laid in all things in our Bible. There is a reason for every little thing written in our Bibles, all is written for a reason, we must learn to seek it out.
