Matthew

³³Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened. ³⁴All these things spake Jesus in parables unto the multitudes; and without a parable spake he nothing unto them: ³⁵that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world. ³⁶Then he left the multitudes, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Explain unto us the parable of the tares of the field. ³⁷And he answered and said, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; ³⁸and 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; ³⁹and the enemy that sowed them is the devil: and the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are angels.
