{{See also|The Aesop for Children}}'''Aesop's Fables''' were written around 600 B.C., containing popular insights well worth remembering. For example, the term "sour grapes" applies to someone who complains after he loses, based on [[Aesop]]'s fable about the fox unable to reach grapes. [[Aesop]] was smart enough to know that foxes are the only canines that like grapes. All the Fables are now available for easy access online.<ref>http://aesopfables.com/</ref>
One of Aesop's Fables is "The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing," which conveys a message about the harmful power of deceit:
As Greeks and other Gentiles learned insights from Aesop's Fables like the one above, Jewish and Christian warnings about the deceit of the devil became even easier to understand and accept.
