Why wouldn't Jesus use OT principal?Jesus is using a parable to foretell a prophecy thus no OT utterance is necessary. I think it's a matter of both physical and spiritual preparation for when the church gets tried via the GT. Spiritual preparation so you won't become apostate and physical preparation for the time you may need or want to buy neccessities, like the oil, but will need the mark to do so.
