NOTE: Highest NT parallel is Luke 16:31 (same passage, same theme). Luke 24:27 and John 1:45 reinforce "Moses and the prophets" as a unit referring to Scripture.

NOTE: Acts 3:22, 7:37, and 28:23 (all by same author Luke) reinforce "Moses and the prophets" as the authority of Scripture. Acts 28:23 uses "persuad" (same root as Luke 16:31's "persuaded").

NOTE: Luke 15:3 and Luke 16:1 are the top parallels. This confirms the literary connection: - Luke 12:16 (parabole + "certain rich man") -> Luke 15:3 (parabole) -> Luke 16:1 ("certain rich man" no label) -> Luke 16:19 ("certain rich man" no label)
