geneva@Matthew:13:1 @ The same day went Iesus out of the house, and sate by the sea side.

geneva@Matthew:13:2 @

geneva@Matthew:13:3 @ Then he spake many things to them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sowe.

geneva@Matthew:13:4 @ And as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the foules came and deuoured them vp.

geneva@Matthew:13:5 @ And some fell vpon stony grounde, where they had not much earth, and anon they sprong vp, because they had no depth of earth.

geneva@Matthew:13:6 @ And when the sunne was vp, they were parched, and for lacke of rooting, withered away.

geneva@Matthew:13:7 @ And some fell among thornes, and the thornes sprong vp, and choked them.

geneva@Matthew:13:8 @ Some againe fel in good ground, & brought forth fruite, one corne an hundreth folde, some sixtie folde, and another thirtie folde.

geneva@Matthew:13:9 @ He that hath eares to heare, let him heare.

geneva@Matthew:13:10 @ Then the disciples came, and said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables?

geneva@Matthew:13:11 @

geneva@Matthew:13:12 @ For whosoeuer hath, to him shalbe giuen, and he shall haue abundance: but whosoeuer hath not, from him shalbe taken away, euen that he hath.

geneva@Matthew:13:13 @ Therefore speake I to them in parables, because they seeing, doe not see: and hearing, they heare not, neither vnderstand.

geneva@Matthew:13:14 @ So in them is fulfilled the prophecie of Esaias, which prophecie saieth, By hearing, ye shall heare, and shall not vnderstand, and seeing, ye shal see, and shall not perceiue.

geneva@Matthew:13:15 @ For this peoples heart is waxed fat, & their eares are dull of hearing, and with their eyes they haue winked, lest they should see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, & should vnderstand with their hearts, & should returne, that I might heale them.

geneva@Matthew:13:16 @

geneva@Matthew:13:17 @ For verely I say vnto you, that many Prophets, & righteous men haue desired to see those things which ye see, & haue not seene them, & to heare those things which ye heare, and haue not heard them.

geneva@Matthew:13:18 @ Heare ye therefore ye parable of ye sower.

geneva@Matthew:13:19 @ When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his

(note:)Though there is mention made of the heart, yet this sowing is referred to as hearing without understanding. For whether the seed is received in the heart or not, yet he that sows, sows to the heart.(:note)

heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

geneva@Matthew:13:20 @ And hee that receiued seede in the stonie grounde, is he which heareth the woorde, and incontinently with ioy receiueth it,

geneva@Matthew:13:21 @ Yet hath he no roote in himselfe, and dureth but a season: for assoone as tribulation or persecution commeth because of the woorde, by and by he is offended.

geneva@Matthew:13:22 @ And hee that receiued the seede among thornes, is hee that heareth the woorde: but the care of this worlde, and the deceitfulnesse of riches choke the word, and he is made vnfruitfull.

geneva@Matthew:13:23 @ But he that receiued the seede in the good ground, is he that heareth the worde, and vnderstandeth it, which also beareth fruite, and bringeth foorth, some an hundreth folde, some sixtie folde, and some thirtie folde.

geneva@Matthew:13:24 @

geneva@Matthew:13:25 @ But while men slept, there came his enemie, and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his waie.

geneva@Matthew:13:26 @ And when the blade was sprong vp, and brought forth fruite, then appeared the tares also.

geneva@Matthew:13:27 @ Then came the seruaunts of the housholder, and sayd vnto him, Master, sowedst not thou good seede in thy fielde? from whence then hath it tares?

geneva@Matthew:13:28 @ And hee said to them, Some enuious man hath done this. Then the seruants saide vnto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them vp?

geneva@Matthew:13:29 @ But he saide, Nay, lest while yee goe about to gather the tares, yee plucke vp also with them the wheat.

geneva@Matthew:13:30 @ Let both growe together vntill the haruest, and in time of haruest I will say to the reapers, Gather yee first the tares, and binde them in sheaues to burne them: but gather the wheate into my barne.

geneva@Matthew:13:31 @

geneva@Matthew:13:32 @ Which in deede is the least of all seedes: but when it is growen, it is the greatest among herbes, and it is a tree, so that the birdes of heauen come and builde in the branches thereof.

geneva@Matthew:13:33 @ Another parable spake hee to them, The kingdome of heauen is like vnto leauen, which a woman taketh and hideth in three pecks of meale, till all be leauened.

geneva@Matthew:13:34 @ All these thinges spake Iesus vnto the multitude in parables, and without parables spake he not to them,

geneva@Matthew:13:35 @ That it might be fulfilled, which was spoken by the Prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables, and will vtter the thinges which haue beene kept secrete from the foundation of the worlde.

geneva@Matthew:13:36 @ Then sent Iesus the multitude away, and went into the house; his disciples came vnto him, saying, Declare vnto vs the parable of the tares of that fielde.

geneva@Matthew:13:37 @

geneva@Matthew:13:38 @ And the field is the worlde, and the good seede are the children of the kingdome, and the tares are the children of that wicked one.

geneva@Matthew:13:39 @ And the enemie that soweth them, is the deuill, and the haruest is the end of the worlde, and the reapers be the Angels.

geneva@Matthew:13:40 @ As then the tares are gathered and burned in ye fire, so shal it be in the end of this world.

geneva@Matthew:13:41 @ The Sonne of man shal send forth his Angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which doe iniquitie,

geneva@Matthew:13:42 @ And shall cast them into a fornace of fire. There shalbe wailing and gnashing of teeth.

geneva@Matthew:13:43 @ Then shall the iust men shine as ye sunne in the kingdome of their Father. Hee that hath eares to heare, let him heare.

geneva@Matthew:13:44 @

geneva@Matthew:13:45 @ Againe, the kingdome of heauen is like to a marchant man, that seeketh good pearles,

geneva@Matthew:13:46 @ Who hauing found a pearle of great price, went and solde all that he had, and bought it.

geneva@Matthew:13:47 @

geneva@Matthew:13:48 @ Which, when it is full, men draw to lande, and sit and gather the good into vessels, and cast the bad away.

geneva@Matthew:13:49 @ So shall it be at the end of the world. The Angels shall goe foorth, and seuer the bad from among the iust,

geneva@Matthew:13:50 @ And shall cast them into a fornace of fire: there shalbe wailing, and gnashing of teeth.

geneva@Matthew:13:51 @

geneva@Matthew:13:52 @ Then sayd hee vnto them, Therefore euery Scribe which is taught vnto the kingdome of heauen, is like vnto an householder, which bringeth foorth out of his treasure things both newe and olde.

geneva@Matthew:13:53 @ And it came to passe, that when Iesus had ended these parables, he departed thence,

geneva@Matthew:13:54 @

geneva@Matthew:13:55 @ Is not this the carpenters sonne? Is not his mother called Marie, and his brethren Iames and Ioses, and Simon and Iudas?

geneva@Matthew:13:56 @ And are not his sisters all with vs? Whence then hath he all these things?

geneva@Matthew:13:57 @ And they were offended with him. Then Iesus said to them, A Prophet is not without honour, saue in his owne countrey, and in his owne house.

geneva@Matthew:13:58 @ And he did not many great woorkes there, for their vnbeliefes sake.

bible Matthew:13 -

kjv@Matthew:13:19 > > RandyP :

This understanding is not a matter left to human intelligence, it is plain and evident to persons of all IQ's/literacy/backgrounds. Satan is not omnipresent so he utilizes man's sheep like pack and conforming nature. He will twist and distort ones intentions and honest curiosity, even God's own words to produce doubt and apparent contradiction to foster rejection and rebellion. It is not understood because the heart has fattened and calloused against it. A mans own peers become the fowls of the air as much as any demon.

kjv@Matthew:13:20-21 > > RandyP :

From whom does the most pressure/persecution come from? Those just described as the wayside. Those here now without root expect peace and pleasantry. If the gospel is obvious to them it should be obvious to others they presume, and yet it is not obvious, ridiculed, divisive, persecuted against, even deadly. The young fledgling becomes disheartened, embarrassed, offended. A process - sunlight that is supposed to bring about growth instead kills off the plant. Though passive from ther out typically by number they are used by the wayside (therefore Satan) to increase the pressure on the remaining believers.

kjv@Matthew:13:22 > > RandyP :

A believer that overcomes the first two elements must also contend with the cares of this world. It may not matter what others believe or think or behave, the believer is settled and assured in this part of his faith. However, the real issues of life and family and citizen present a constant drain on his time and energies causing anxiety and fatigue and over extension. The productive fruit of his life gets chocked out without him barely realizing it. I speak from experience.

kjv@Matthew:13:23 > > RandyP :

For the few strong that remain all of this process works to produce fruit in them 30 60 100 fold; supernatural returns. Fruit like this would not be possible if it were not for the entire process the necessitated it and brought it about. We should not consider it odd that these many things go into producing spiritual fruit. It is producers like these that the Lord wants with Him in His Kingdom. These souls are basically the humble and meek He spoke of in the Beatitudes that His light and Spirit have shown through, His redemption has fashioned, branches abiding in His vine, created unto good works; they are the blessed.

kjv@Matthew:13:23 > > RandyP :

The Lord sows a very particular seed expecting later a very particular fruit, a fruit worthy of the kingdom from which it was born, worthy of acceptance into the kingdom to which it is harvested. It is a supernatural fruit that comes forth in supernatural numbers; the fruit itself that bares more of this particular seed. The process it takes to produce from seed to root to a plant to fruit is deliberate and unavoidable as sunshine. Understanding this parable is to understand such spiritual process. Is this the fruit that I am producing?

kjv@Matthew:13:24-30 > > RandyP :

This parable is to be placed beside the parable of the sower for direct comparison, one extends the other. The first is a look at the process of the individual believer and what he must overcome. The second is a picture of the field (world) of all. The enemy has come in and planted a false believer with every appearance of the true believer except in final fruit. To remove the false believer at this time would also uproot the true believer, so the two are left to grow together. Both parables work together to draw a broader and deeper picture. The Disciples will shortly ask Jesus to explain this further.

kjv@Matthew:13:24-30 > > RandyP :

This is not to say that the Devil has created his own humans and planted them amongst God's. This is better explained by whom the God created human becomes moral agent of/to. The Kingdom of Heaven becomes firmly planted into one and the false kingdom of heaven becomes established in the other. The differences nearly indistinguishable until the fruit from each is bore out.

kjv@Matthew:13:37 > > RandyP :

filter:NT-GOSPEL Son of man speaks largely of His betrayal cruxifiction and return.
