* The same day went Jesus out of the house , and sat by the sea side . * And great multitudes were gathered together unto him , so that he went into a boat , and sat ; and the whole multitude stood on the shore . * And he spoke many things unto them in parables , saying , kjc @Matthew:13:4 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:5 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:6 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:7 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:8 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:9 " /> * And the disciples came , and said unto him , Why speak you unto them in parables ? * He answered and said unto them , kjc @Matthew:13:12 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:13 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:14 " /> * For this people 's heart is grown gross , and their ears are dull of hearing , and their eyes they have closed ; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears , and should understand with their heart , and should be converted , and I should heal them . kjc @Matthew:13:16 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:17 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:18 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:19 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:20 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:21 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:22 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:23 " /> * Another parable put he forth unto them , saying , kjc @Matthew:13:25 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:26 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:27 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:28 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:29 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:30 " /> * Another parable put he forth unto them , saying , kjc @Matthew:13:32 " /> * Another parable spoke he unto them ; * All these things spoke Jesus unto the multitude in parables ; and without a parable spoke he not unto them : * That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet , saying , I will open my mouth in parables ; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world . * Then Jesus sent the multitude away , and went into the house : and his disciples came unto him , saying , Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field . * He answered and said unto them , kjc @Matthew:13:38 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:39 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:40 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:41 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:42 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:43 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:44 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:45 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:46 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:47 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:48 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:49 " /> kjc @Matthew:13:50 " /> * Jesus says unto them , They say unto him , Yes , Lord . * Then said he unto them , * And it came to pass , that when Jesus had finished these parables , he departed from there . * And when he was come into his own country , he taught them in their synagogue , insomuch that they were astonished , and said , From where has this man this wisdom , and these mighty works ? * Is not this the carpenter 's son ? is not his mother called Mary ? and his brothers , James , and Joses , and Simon , and Judas ? * And his sisters , are they not all with us ? Whence then has this man all these things ? * And they were offended in him . But Jesus said unto them , A prophet is not without honor , except in his own country , and in his own house . * And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief .
