Who can understand

There are many animals in the world who appear in human form; the wise one gives acorns to pigs, barley, hay, and grass to livestock, bones to dogs, to servants he gives basic lessons; and to his children, the teaching in its entirety.

Let’s break down what this passage means:

Many animals in the world who appear in human form. This refers to people who, despite their human appearance, are not ready or able to receive higher spiritual truths. They are still operating on a more basic, instinctual level.

Acorns to pigs: This represents giving simple, perhaps even crude, teachings to those who are only capable of understanding and benefiting from such basic information. The “pigs” symbolize those who are not ready for more refined spiritual nourishment.

Barley, hay, and grass to livestock. This signifies providing more substantial, but still fundamental, knowledge to those who can assimilate it, but are not yet at the level of full understanding.

“Bones to dogs”: This suggests giving very basic, perhaps even unrefined, truths to those who can only grasp limited concepts.

To servants he gives basic lessons: This refers to providing foundational teachings to those who are still in a preparatory stage of learning.

And to his children, the teaching in its entirety. This is the key part. “Children” here represent those who are spiritually mature and ready to receive the full, unadulterated spiritual wisdom, the “teaching in its entirety or direct knowledge of God.

The passage is a metaphor for the idea that spiritual teachings must be tailored to the capacity of the student. Not everyone is ready for the deepest truths, and a wise teacher provides what is appropriate for each individual’s level of understanding.
