Matthew 13
1
On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside.
2
Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach.
3
He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “\+w Behold|strong="G2400"\+w*, \+w a|strong="G2532"\+w* farmer \+w went|strong="G1831"\+w* \+w out|strong="G1831"\+w* \+w to|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w sow|strong="G4687"\+w*.

10
The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”
11

33
He spoke another parable to them. “\+w The|strong="G1519"\+w* Kingdom \+w of|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w Heaven|strong="G3772"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w like|strong="G3664"\+w* \+w yeast|strong="G2219"\+w* \+w which|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w a|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w woman|strong="G1135"\+w* \+w took|strong="G2983"\+w* \+w and|strong="G3772"\+w* \+w hid|strong="G1470"\+w* \+w in|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w three|strong="G5140"\+w* \+w measures|strong="G4568"\+w*\+w of|strong="G3588"\+w* meal, \+w until|strong="G2193"\+w* \+w it|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w was|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w all|strong="G3650"\+w* \+w leavened|strong="G2220"\+w*.”
34
Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn’t speak to them,
35
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
36
Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”
37
He answered them, “\+w He|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w who|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w sows|strong="G4687"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w good|strong="G2570"\+w* \+w seed|strong="G4690"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w Son|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w of|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w Man|strong="G5207"\+w*,

Jesus said to them, “\+w Have|strong="G3956"\+w* \+w you|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w understood|strong="G4920"\+w* \+w all|strong="G3956"\+w* \+w these|strong="G3778"\+w* \+w things|strong="G3956"\+w*?”

53
When Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
54
Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?
55
Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother called Mary, and his brothers James, Joses, Simon, and Judas?
56
Aren’t all of his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all of these things?”
57
They were offended by him.
58
He didn’t do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
