The Mustard Seed and the Leaven
31 He put another parable before them, saying, For ver. 31, 32, see Mark 4:30-32;Luke 13:18,19"The kingdom of heaven is like ch. 17:20;Luke 17:6a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.32 It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches."
33 He told them another parable. Luke 13:20,21"The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and hid in Gen. 18:6three measures of flour, till it was 1 Cor. 5:6;Gal. 5:9all leavened."
