9. Bears fruit

13:1-9

The one with ears let him hear

13:1 On the day that going out of Jesus of the house sat beside the sea 2 and were assembled to him crowds many, so as him in a ship embarking to sit, and all the crowd on the beach stood. 3 And he spoke to them many things in parables saying; Behold went out the one sowing to sow 4 And in the to sow him some indeed fell beside the way and coming the birds devoured them. 5 But others fell on the rocky places where not it had

earth much, and immediately it sprang up on account of not to have depth of earth; 6 the sun But having risen it was scorched, and on account of the not to have root it was dried up. 7 But others fell on the thorns, and came up the thorns and choked them. 8 And others fell on the earth the good and gave fruit, the one a hundred, the other sixty, the other thirty. 9 The one having ears let him hear.

10. Hears

13:10-23

Sower

13:10 And (then) approaching the disciples said to him: Why in parables speakest thou to them? 11 And he answering said: Because to you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to those it has not been given. 12 He who for has, it will be given to him and he will have abundance; but he who has not, even what he has will be taken from him. 13 Therefore in parables to them I speak, because seeing they see not and hearing they hear not neither understand. 14 And is fulfilled in them the prophecy of Isaiah saying:In hearing ye will hear and by no means understand and seeing ye will see and by no means perceive. 15 For waxed gross the heart people of this, and with the ears heavily they heard, an the eyes of them they closed; lest they see with the eyes and with the ears hear and with the heart understand and turn back and I will heal them. 16 But of you blessed the eyes because they see, and the ears

of you because they hear. 17 truly For I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which ye see and did not see, and to hear the things which ye hear and did not hear. 18 ye therefore hear the parable of the sowing one. 19 Everyone hearing the word of the kingdom and not understanding come the evil one and seizes the thing having been sown in the heart of him; this is the word by the way sown, the 20 word And on the rocky places sown, this is the one the word hearing and immediately with joy receiving it: 21 but he has not root in himself but short-lived is and occurring tribulation or persecution on account of the crowd immediately he is offended. 22 But the word in the thorns sown, this is the one the word hearing, and the anxiety of the age and the deceit of riches chokes the word, and unfruitful it becomes. 23 And the word on the good earth sown, this is the one the word hearing and understanding, who indeed bears fruit and produces one indeed a hundred, the other sixty, the other thirty.

11. Proclaims

13:24-35

..I will utter things hidden from the foundation

13:24 (Then) Another parable he set before them saying: was likened the kingdom of the heavens to a man sowing good seed in the field of him. 25 But in the to sleep men came of him the enemy and oversowed tares in between the wheat and went away. 26 But when sprouted the grass and fruit produced then appeared also the tares. 27 So approaching the slaves of the housemaster said to him: Lord, not good seed sowedst thou in thy field? when then has it tares? 28 And he said to them: An enemy man this did. so the slaves to him say. Willest thou them going away we may collect them? 29 the But says: No lest collecting the tares ye should root up together with them the wheat 30 Leave to grow together both until the harvest; and in time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Collect ye first the ? and bind them in bundles to

burn them but the wheat gather ye into the barn of me.31 Another parable he set before them saying: Like is the kingdom of the havens to a grain of mustard, which taking a man sowed in the field of him: 32 which less indeed is than all the seeds, but when it grows, greater than the herbs it is and becomes a tree, so as to come the birds of the heaven and dwell in the branches of it. 33 another parable he spoke to them: Like is the kingdom of the heavens to leaven, which taking a woman hid in of meal measures three, until was leavened the whole. 34 These things all spake Jesus in parables to the crowds, and without a parable nothing he spoke to them: 35 so that was fulfilled the things spoken through the prophet saying: I will opening parables the mouth of me, will utter things having been hidden from the foundation.

12. Retrieves

13:36-52

Housemaster - new and old things

13:36 Then sending away the crowds he came into the house, And approached to him the disciples of him saying: Explain thou to us the parable of the tares of the field. 37 and he answering said: The one sowing the good seed is the Son of man: 38 and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom: and the tares are the sons of the evil one. 39 the and enemy the one sowing them is the evil; and the harvest the completion of the age is, and the reapers angels are. 40 As therefore are colleted the tares and with fire are consumed, thus it will be at the completion of the age: 41 will send forth the Son of man the angels of him and they will collect out of the kingdom of him all the things leading to sin and the ones doing lawlessness. 42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire; there will be the wailing and the gnashing of the teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of the Father of them. The one having ears let him hear. 44 Like is the kingdom

of the heavens to treasure having been hidden in the field, which finding a man hid, and from the joy of him goes and sells what things he has and buys field that. 45 Again like is the kingdom of the heavens to a merchant seeking beautiful pearls; 46 and finding one valuable pearl going away sold all things what he had and bought it. 47 Again like is the kingdom of the heavens to a net cast into the sea and of every kind gathering; 48 which when it was filled bringing up onto the shore and sitting collected the good into vessels, but the bad out cast. 49 Thus it will be at the completion of the age. will go forth the angels and will separate the evil men from the midst of the righteous. 50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire; there will be the wailing and the gnashing of the teeth. 51 Did ye understand these things all? They say to him: Yes 52 So he said to them: Therefore every scribe made a disciple to the kingdom of the heavens like is to a man a housemaster who puts forth out of the treasure of him new and old things.

13 Is affected by

13:53-57

Not powerful deeds because of unbelief

13:53 And it came to pass when ended the Jesus parables these he removed thence. (Note: End of sub-section?) 54 And (then) coming into the native town of him he taught them in the synagogue of them, so as to be astounded them and to say: Whence to this man wisdom this and the powerful deeds? 55 not this man is the of the carpenter son? not the

mother of him called Mary and the brothers of him James and Joseph and Joseph and Simon and Judas? 56 and the sisters of him not all with us are? Whence the to this man these things all? 57 And they were offended in him But Jesus said to them; not is A prophet unhonoured except in the native town and in the house of him. 58 And not he did there powerful deeds many because of the unbelief of them. . . .
