Il mio dizionario etimologico mi riporta al verbo latino /parabolare/,
che significa /narrare usando una allegoria/.
Mi piacerebbe andare piu` indietro, ma non ho gli strumenti, e al momento
escludo di cercare su internet (ho fatto indigestione di ricerche su internet
per i miei corsi).

The origin, as reported by my etymological dictionary is
from the latin verb /parabolare/, with the original meaning:
to tell a tale that should be an example for something else
(Italian: allegoria).
