Jesus uses parables to explain that the Kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that grows into a tree, yeast that leavens a whole batch of dough, a hidden treasure worth everything, a precious pearl worth selling all possessions for, a net that gathers all kinds of fish, and a separating of the good from the evil by angels. He concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding these teachings.

  8. Matthew 13:31 33, 44 52 51 Do you understand these things? Jesus asked them. Yes, they answered. 52 So he replied, This means, then, that every teacher of the Law who becomes a disciple in the Kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who takes new and old things out of his storage room.
