the word, and immediately with joy receives it;
Matt. 13,21 Yet has he not root in himself, but endures for a while: for when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, by and by he is offended.
Matt. 13,22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that hears the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
chap. 6,19-34; 1 Tim. 6,9
Matt. 13,23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that hears the word, and understands it; which also bears fruit, and brings forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
Matt. 13,24 Another parable put he forth to them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man which sowed good seed in his field:
Matt. 13,25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
Matt. 13,26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Matt. 13,27 So the servants of the householder came and said to him, Sir, did not you sow good seed in your field? from whence then has it tares?
Matt. 13,28 He said to them, An enemy has done this. The servants said to him, Will you then that we go and gather them up?
Matt. 13,29 But he said, No; lest while you gather up the tares, you root up also the wheat with them.
Matt. 13,30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
chap. 3,12; 15,13; Rev. 14,15
Of a grain of mustard seed.
(Mark. 4,30-32; Luke 13,18.19)
Matt. 13,31 Another parable put he forth to them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Matt. 13,32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
Eze. 17,23
Matt. 13,33 Another parable spoke he to them; The kingdom of heaven is like to leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Luke 13,20.21
Matt. 13,34 All these things spoke Yahshua to the multitude in parables; and without a parable spoke he not to them:
Mark 4,33.34
Matt. 13,35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet; saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
Matt. 13,36 Then Yahshua sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came to him, saying, Declare to us the parable of the tares of the field.
Matt. 13,37 He answered and said to them, He that sows the good seed is the Son of man;
Matt. 13,38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
John 8,44; 1 Cor. 3,9
Matt. 13,39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
Matt. 13,40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
Matt. 13,41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and them which do iniquity/ lawlessness (!);
chap. 25,31-46
Matt. 13,42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Matt. 13,43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who has ears to hear, let him hear!
Dan 12,3
Matt. 13,44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to treasure hid in a field; the which when a man has found, he hides, and for joy thereof goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
chap. 19,29; Luke 14,33; Phil 3,7
Matt. 13,45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
Matt. 13,46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
Matt. 13,47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
chap. 22,9.10
Matt. 13,48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad/ useless away.
Matt. 13,49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,
chap. 25,32
Matt. 13,50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Matt. 13,51 Yahshua said to them, Have you understood all these things? They say to him, Yes, Master.
Matt. 13,52 Then said he to them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed to the kingdom of heaven is like to a man that is an householder, which brings forth out of his treasure things new and old.
Matt. 13,53 And it came to pass, that when Yahshua had finished these parables, he departed from there.
Matt. 13,54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so (insomuch) that they were astonished, and said, Whence has this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?
Matt. 13,55 Is not this the carpenter‘s son? is not his mother called Miriam? and his brethren, Jacob, and Joseph, and Simon, and Judah?
Matt. 13,56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then has this man all these things?
John 6,42; 7,15.52
Matt. 13,57 And they were offended in him: But Yahshua said to them, A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country, and in his own house.
John 4,44
Matt. 13,58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Chapter 14
The end of John the Baptist.
