wmth - Mark:4:30-34

wmth@Mark:4:30 @ Another saying of His was this: »How are we to picture the Kingdom of God? or by what figure of speech shall we represent it?

wmth@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a mustard-seed, which, when sown in the earth, is the smallest of all the seeds in the world;

wmth@Mark:4:32 @ yet when sown it springs up and becomes larger than all the herbs, and throws out great branches, so that the birds build under its shadow.«

wmth@Mark:4:33 @ With many such parables He used to speak the Message to them according to their capacity for receiving it.

wmth@Mark:4:34 @ But except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them; while to His own disciples He expounded everything, in private.
