(See verses 3-4)

A Mortal Having Sown Beautiful Seed

 

Mat. 13:24 (LIT/UBS4) He passed along (parethēken) another (allēn) parable (parabolēn) to them (autois), saying (legōn), “The (hē) Kingdom932 (basileia) of the (tōn) Heavens (ouranōn) was made [a] likeness (hōmoiōthē) to [a] mortal (anthrōpō) having sown (speiranti) beautiful (kalon) seed (sperma) in (en) the (tō) field (agro) of him (autou).

 

Mat. 13:25 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) in (en) the (tō) [time, AE] of the (tous) mortals (anthrōpous) to be down asleep (katheudein) the (ho) hateful (echthros) [mortal, RE] of him (autou) came (ēlthen), and (kai) sowed zizania up over (epespeiren zizania ana) amidst (meson) the (tou) grain (sitou), and (kai) went away (apēlthen).

 

Mat. 13:26 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) when (hote) the (ho) fodder (chortos) sprouted (eblastēsen) and (kai) made (epoiēsen) produce (karpon), then (tote) the (ta) zizania (zizania) was shown (ephanē) also (kai).

 

Mat. 13:27 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) slaves (douloi) of the (tou) house master (oikodespotou) having come to (proselthontes) [the house master, RE], they enunciated (eipon) to him (autō), ‘Lord (kurie), did you absolutely not sow (ouchi espeiras) beautiful (kalon) seed (sperma) in (en) the (tō) field (agrō) to you (sō)?

 

Therefore (oun), from where (pothen) does it have (echei) zizania (zizania)!?’

 

Mat. 13:28 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [house master, v27, RE] shed light5346 (ephē) to them (autois), ‘[A] mortal (anthrōpos), [a] hateful (echthros) [mortal, RE], did (epoiēsen) this (touto).’

 

But (de) the (hoi) slaves (douloi) say (legousin) to him (autō), ‘Therefore (oun), having gone away (apelthontes) do you desire (theleis) [that, AE] we may collect them together (sullexōmen auta)?’

 

Mat. 13:29 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [house master, v27, RE] shed light5346 (phēsin), ‘Absolutely not (ou), at no time (mēpote)!

 

You collecting together (sullegontes) the (ta) zizania (zizania) may root out (ekrizōsēte) the (ton) grain (siton) at the same time (hama) [collecting together, RE] them (autois)!

 

Mat. 13:30 (LIT/UBS4) Let go (aphete) of both (amphotera) to grow together (sunauxanesthai) until (heōs) the (tou) harvest (therismou). 

 

And (kai) in (en) time (kairō) of the (tou) harvest (therismou) I shall state (erō) to the (tois) harvesters (theristais),Collect together (sullexate) first (prōton) the (ta) zizania (zizania), and (kai) bind (dēsate) them (auta) into (eis) bundles (desmas) toward (pros) the (to) [fire, AE] to burn them down (katakausai auta)

 

But (de) of the (ton) grain (siton), bring [the grain, RE] together (sunagagete) into (eis) the (tēn) apothecary (apothēkēn) of me (mou).’

 

(For who is the lord of the harvest, see Mat. 9:38, 13:30; Luke 10:3; John 4:38.)

 

(For more about how ones become separated from God, paying close attention to associated contexts, see Mat. 3:11-12, 12:30, 13:24-30, 13:37-43, 13:47-51, 22:1-14, 25:24-46; Luke 3:15-17, 11:23, 16:19-31, 22:31-32; John 11:49-52, 15:1-6; Acts 4:13-21; 2 Cor. 6:16-18; 2 Pet. 2:9; 1 John 4:18; Rev. 16:12-16.)

 

A Kernel Of A Mustard Tree

 

Mat. 13:31 (LIT/UBS4) He passed along (parethēken) another (allēn) parable (parabolēn) to them (autois), saying (legōn), The (hē) Kingdom932 (basileia) of the (tōn) Heavens (ouranōn) is (estin) like (homoia) [a] kernel (kokkō) of [a] mustard tree (sinapeōs);

 

of which (hon) [a] mortal (anthrōpos) having taken (labōn) [[a] kernel of [a] mustard tree, RE] he sowed (espeiren) [[a] kernel, RE] in (en) the (tō) field (agrō) of him (autou);

 

Mat. 13:32 (LIT/UBS4) which (ho) [kernel, v31, RE], truly (men), is (estin) [a] small (mikroteron) [kernal, v31, RE] of all (pantōn) of the (tōn) seeds (spermatōn)!

 

But (de) perhaps when (hotan) it may be caused to grow (auxēthē) it is (estin) [a] greater (meizon) [plant, RE] of the (tōn) cultivated plants (lachanōn), and (kai) it causes itself to become (ginetai) [a] tree (dendron);

 

and so (hōste) the (ta) flying animals (peteina) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou) come (elthein) and (kai) tent down (kataskēnoun) in (en) the (tois) branches (kladois) of it (autou).”

 

Leaven

 

Mat. 13:33 (LIT/UBS4) He spoke (elalēsen) to them (autois) another (allēn) parable (parabolēn): “The (hē) Kingdom932 (basileia) of the (tōn) Heavens (ouranōn) is (en) like (homoia) leaven (zumē);

 

of which (hēn) [a] female (gunē) having taken (labousa) [leaven, ER] she hid [leaven, ER] in (enekrupsen) into (eis) three (tria) dry measures (sata) of [a] grind (aleurou), until (heōs) of which (hou) [time, AE] [the] whole (holon) [grind, RE] was leavened (ezumōthē)!”

 

(For the God, under his new covenant, being IN believers, and he working IN and THROUGH them, see Lev. 26:11-12; Ezek. 11:19-20, 36:25-27; Mat. 13:33; Luke 17:20-21; John 3:3-8, 14:20-21, 26, 17:14-21; Rom. 8:8-11; 1 Cor. 3:16-17, 6:19-20; 2 Cor. 4:3-7, 6:14-7:1, 13:3-5, 14; Gal. 1:15-16, 2:20, 4:18-19; Eph. 2:17-22, 3:14-19; Col. 1:27; 2 Tim. 1:14; Heb. 3:6, 13:20-21; 1 John 3:23-24, 4:7-8, 15-16)

 

Mat. 13:34 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) spoke (elalēsan) all (panta) these things (tauta) in (en) parables (parabolais) to the (tois) crowds (ochlois).

 

And (kai) apart from (chōris) [a] parable (parabolēs) absolutely not one (ouden) [Word, v23, RE] was he speaking (elalei) to them (autois)!

 

Mat. 13:35 (LIT/UBS4) It so being that (hopōs) the (to) [prophecy, AE] may be fulfilled (plērōthē) having been stated (rhēthen) through (dia) the (tou) prophet (prophētou) saying (legontos), “I shall open up (anoixō) the (to) mouth (stoma) of me (mou) in (en) to parables (parabolais);

 

I shall cause myself to regurgitate (ereuxomai) things having been hidden (kekrummena) from/since (apo) [a/the] downthrow (katabolēs) of [the] cosmos (kosmou).” 

 

(See Psalm 78:2)

 

Mat. 13:36 (LIT/UBS4) Then (tote) having let go (apheis) of the (tous) crowds (ochlous), Jesus (Iēsous) went (ēlthen) into (eis) the (tēn) house (oikian).

 

And (kai) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) of him (autou) came to (prosēlthon) him (autō), saying (legontes), “Make thoroughly clear (diasaphēson) to us (hēmin) the (tēn) parable (parabolēn) of the (tou) zizania (zizaniōn) of the (tou) field (agrou)!

 

Mat. 13:37 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) he (ho) [Jesus, v36, RE] having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis), he enunciated (eipen), “The (ho) [mortal, RE] sowing (speirōn) the (to) beautiful (kalon) seed (sperma) is (estin) the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthropou).

 

Mat. 13:38 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) field (agros) is (estin) the (ho) cosmos (kosmos)

 

But (de) the (ho) beautiful (kalon) seed (sperma), these (houtoi) [sons, RE], are (eisin) the (hoi) sons (huioi) of the (tēs) Kingdom932 (basileias)

 

But (de) the (ta) zizania (zizania) are (eisin) the (hoi) sons (huioi) of the (tou) evil (ponērou) [kingdoms, vLuke 4:5-6, RE].

 

Mat. 13:39 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) hateful (echthros) [mortal, RE], the (ho) [mortal, RE] having sown (speiras) them (auta), is (estin) the (ho) diabolical (diabolos) [mortal, RE].  

 

But (de) the (ho) harvest (therismos) is (estin) [the] complete coming together (sunteleia) of [the] age (aiōnos)

 

But (de) the (hoi) harvesters (theristai) are (eisin) messengers (angeloi).

 

Mat. 13:40 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), so be it as (hōsper) the (ta) zizania (zizanion) are collected together (sullegetai) and (kai) [are] down (kata) for fire (puri), thusly (houtōs) shall it cause itself to be (estai) in (en) the (tē) complete coming together (sunteleia) of the (tou) age (aiōnos).

 

Mat. 13:41 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) shall send (apostelei) the (tous) messengers (angelous) of him (autou), and (kai) they shall collect together (sullexousin) out (ek) of the (tēs) Kingdom932 (basileias) of him (autou) all (panta) of the (ta) scandalous (skandala) [mortals, RE], and (kai) the (tous) [mortals, RE] doing (poiountas) the (tēn) lawlessness (anomian).

 

Mat. 13:42 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) they shall throw (balousin) them (autous) into (eis) the (tēn) furnace (kaminon) of the (tou) fire (puri).

 

There (ekei) the (ho) wailing (klauthmos), and (kai) the (ho) grinding (brugmos) of the (tōn) teeth (odontōn), shall cause itself to be (estai).

 

Mat. 13:43 (LIT/UBS4) Then (tote) the (hoi) righteous (dikaioi) [mortals, RE] shall shine out (eklampsousin) as (hōs) the (ho) sun (hēlios) in (en) the (hē) Kingdom932 (basileia) of the (tou) Father (patros) of them (autōn).  

 

The (ho) [mortal, RE] having (echōn) ears (ōta), hear (akouetō).

 

(For Jesus’ kingdom see Mat. 13:37-43; 1 Cor. 15:24-28; Eph. 1:19-23; Heb. 2:5-8)

 

(For more about how ones become separated from God, paying close attention to associated contexts, see Mat. 3:11-12, 12:30, 13:24-30, 13:37-43, 13:47-51, 22:1-14, 25:24-46; Luke 3:15-17, 11:23, 16:19-31, 22:31-32; John 11:49-52, 15:1-6; Acts 4:13-21; 2 Cor. 6:16-18; 2 Pet. 2:9; 1 John 4:18; Rev. 16:12-16.)

 

A Treasure

 

Mat. 13:44 (LIT/UBS4) The (hē) Kingdom932 (basileia) of the (tōn) Heavens (ouranōn) is (estin) like (homoia) [a] treasure (thēsaurō) having been hidden (kekrummenō) in (en) the (tō) field (agrō);

 

of which (hon) [a] mortal (anthrōpos) having found (heurōn) [[the] treasure, ER], he hid (ekrupsen) [[the] treasure, ER]. 

 

And (kai) from (apo) the (tēs) joy (charas) of him (autou) he gets underway (hupagei) and (kai) sells (pōlei) all (panta), as many things as (hosa) he has (echei), and (kai) he goes to market to buy (agorazei) the (ton) field (agron) of that (ekeinon)!
