Matthew 13:10

God's Word

The disciples asked him, “Why do you use stories as illustrations when you speak to people?”

See the chapter Copy

Jesus answered, “Knowledge about the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you. But it has not been given to the crowd.

Then he used stories as illustrations to tell them many things. He said, “Listen! A farmer went to plant seed.

Let the person who has ears listen!”

When he was alone with his followers and the twelve apostles, they asked him about the stories.

His disciples asked him what this story meant.
