THE PARABLE OF THE WEEDS


Matthew 13:24-43

Key Verse 13:24


“Jesus told them another parable: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.’”



In the parable described here (24-30), what do all of the elements represent? (37-39)  What harm do the weeds do?  Why doesn’t the farmer destroy all of the weeds now?








How do the two types of plants appear similar?  What is the difference?  What will happen to them in the end?








In what way is the kingdom of heaven like a mustard seed?  Usually, mustard plants are small bushes.  What does it mean that the kingdom grows instead into a tree, with birds perching in its branches?








In what way is the kingdom of heaven like yeast?  What does it mean that the yeast worked all through even a large amount of flour?
