The Parable of the Mustard SeedMML

God's kingdom is compared to the smallest seed that grows into a large tree.

Matteuksen evankeliumiMatt 13:31-32

31He put another parable before them: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.

32It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches."

Markuksen evankeliumiMark 4:30-32

30And he said, "How shall we picture the kingdom of God? What parable shall we use for it?

31It is like a mustard seed. When it is sown in the ground, it is the smallest of all the seeds on earth,

32yet once it is sown it comes up and becomes the largest of all the garden plants, with branches so big that the birds of the sky can nest in its shade."

18Then he said, "What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I compare it to?

19It is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches."

At that same time some people came and told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
He answered them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered this way?
No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you will all perish just as they did.
Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them—do you think they were more guilty than everyone else living in Jerusalem?
No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
Then he told this parable: "A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came looking for fruit on it but found none.
So he said to the vineyard keeper, 'Look, for three years now I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree and have found none. Cut it down. Why should it go on using up the soil?'
But the gardener answered him, 'Sir, leave it one more year, and let me dig around it and put manure on it.
If it bears fruit next year, well and good; if not, then cut it down.'"
He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath,
and there was a woman there who for eighteen years had been afflicted by a spirit of weakness. She was bent over and could not straighten up at all.
When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said to her, "Woman, you are set free from your infirmity."
He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight and began praising God.
But the ruler of the synagogue, indignant that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days for work. Come and be healed on those days, not on the Sabbath."
The Lord answered him, "You hypocrites! Doesn't each of you untie his ox or donkey from the stall on the Sabbath and lead it out to water?
Then should not this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen years, be set free from her bonds on the Sabbath?"
At these words all his opponents were put to shame, and the whole crowd rejoiced at all the wonderful things he was doing.
Then he said, "What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I compare it to?
It is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches."
Again he said, "What shall I compare the kingdom of God to?
It is like yeast that a woman took and worked into three measures of flour until it was all leavened."
He went on through towns and villages, teaching as he made his way toward Jerusalem.
Someone asked him, "Lord, are only a few going to be saved?" He said to them,
"Strive to enter through the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.
Once the master of the house gets up and shuts the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, 'Lord, open the door for us.' But he will answer, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
Then you will say, 'We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.'
And he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Away from me, all you workers of injustice!'
There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrown out.
People will come from east and west and from north and south, and will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of God.
Indeed, some who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last."
At that very hour some Pharisees came to him and said, "Leave this place and go somewhere else; Herod wants to kill you."
He replied, "Go and tell that fox: 'Look, I am driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.'
Yet I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet should die outside Jerusalem.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you—how often I have longed to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing!
Look, your house is left to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until the time comes when you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
