Matthew 13:32-34

International Standard Version

³² Although it is the smallest of^[a] all seeds, when it is fully grown it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, and the birds in the sky come and nest in its branches.”

³³ He told them another parable: “The kingdom from^[b] heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with^[c] three measures of flour until all of it was leavened.”

Why Jesus Used Parables^(A)

³⁴ Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables. He did not tell them anything without using^[d] a parable.
