WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE FOR THOSE WHO SEEK:



Parable-"saying or story in which something is expressed in terms of something else.

Matthew 13:9-11

9."He who has ears,let him hear".
10.And the disciples came and said to Him,"Why do You speak to them in parables?"
11.Jesus answered them,"To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens,but to them it has not been granted.

What is Jesus saying here?
He is telling them that some has been granted the ability to know the mysteries of the heaven,and there are others that have not been granted this.So Jesus spoke to them in parables allegorically,in riddles,and puzzles.So that they couldn't understand.The pieces is there for those that seek to know G-D.

Proverbs 10:17

17."I love those who love me; And those who diligently seek me will find me.

You don't want to give the evil ones anything of good.They know the truth,but the refuse to except the truth.So if they seek to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens they they must love G-D.So to them it was not granted for them to know.

Matthew 13:12

12."For whoever has,to him more shall be given,and he will have abundance;but whoever does not have,even what he has shall be taken away from him.

Now what is being said here,is that whoever has G-d and has true knowledge of G-D truth and spread that truth and not keep it to themself to him,he will have an abundance.But whoever does not have G-D and knows the truth and keeps it to themself,what he has shall be taken away from him.

Matthew 13:13-16

13."Therefore I speak to them in parables;because while seeing they do not see,and while hearing they do not hear,nor do they understand.
14."In their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled,which says,
"YOU WILL KEEP ON HEARING,BUT WILL NOT UNDERSTAND;
YOU WILL KEEP ON SEEING,BUT WILL NOT PERCEIVE;
15.THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL,
WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR,
AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES,
OTHERWISE THEY WOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES,
HEAR WITH THEIR EARS,AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN,
AND I would heal them.'
16."But blessed are your eyes,because they see; and your ears,because they hear.

Matthew 13:24-30

24.Jesus presented another parable to them,saying,"The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25."But while his men were sleeping,his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat,and went away.
26."But when the wheat sprouted and bored grain,then the tares became evident also.
27."The slaves of the landowner came and said to him,'Sir,did you not sow good seed in your field?How then does it have tares?'
28."And he said to them,'An enemy has done this!'The slaves said to him,'Do you want us,then,to go and gather them up?'
29."But he said,'No;for while you are gathering up tares,you may uproot the wheat with them.
30.'Allow both to grow together until the harvest;and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers,"First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up;but gather the wheat into my barn."

Matthew 13:36-43

36.Then He left the crowds and went into the house.And His disciples came to Him and said," Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."
37.And He said,"The one who sow the good seed is the Son of Man,
38.and the field is the world;and as for the good seed,these are the sons of the kingdom;and the tares are the sons of the evil one;
39.and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age;and the reapers are angels.
40."so just as the tares are gathered up and burned with fire,so shall it be at the end of the age.
41."The Son of Man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks,and those who commit lawlessness,
42.and will throw them into the furnace of fire;in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43."Then THE RIGHTEOUS WILL SHINE FORTH AS THE SUN in the kingdom of their Father.
He who has ears,let him hear.
