Mateus 13

The Parables of the Mustard Seed and of the Leaven

31 He  * 13:31–32 Mk 4:30–32; Lk 13:18–19 presented another parable to them: "The kingdom of heaven* 13:31 Mt 13:24; 17:20; Lk 17:6is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.32 It’s the smallest of all the seeds, but when grown, it’s taller than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the sky come and nest in its branches."* 13:32 Ps 104:12; Ezk 17:23; 31:6; Dn 4:12
