Matthew 13:10

Weymouth NT

(And His disciples came and asked Him, »Why do you speak to them in figurative language?«

See the chapter Copy

»Because,« He replied, »while to you it is granted to know the secrets of the Kingdom of the Heavens, to them it is not.

He then spoke many things to them in figurative language. »The sower goes out,« He said, »to sow.

Listen, every one who has ears!«

When He was alone, the Twelve and the others who were about Him requested Him to explain His figurative language.

The disciples proceeded to ask Him what this parable meant.
