Jesus delivered sermons as many rabbis did in synagogues and traditional gathering places, expounding on doctrinal truths, telling parables, offering admonition, and engaging his audience in various ways.

On other occasions, His sermons were delivered through miracles, informal exchanges, and just in how He conducted Himself.
