The main meaning of the word parenthesis is a comment, amplification, or explanation of something in the narrative. You can think of it as a pause, or an aside, that is added almost like a footnote (but without the need to add a formal reference). They may also separate a comment that seems not to fit (in a grammatical sense) the narrative style.
In many contexts, you can avoid the issue by using the adjective "parenthetical" instead of the phrase in question. For instance, replace:
"the names listed in parentheses"
with:
"the parenthetical list of names"

The correct spelling is parenthesis.
