* On that day , having gone out of the bais , Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach sat beside the lake . * And many multitudes gathered together to Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach so that he got into a sirah (note :)boat (:note ) to sit down , and the entire multitude stood along the shore . * And Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach told them many things in meshalim (note :)parables (:note ), saying "Hinei ! The Sower went out to sow [seeds ]. * And while he sowed , on the one hand , this [seed ] fell along the road , and , the birds having come , devoured them . * And others fell upon the rocky places , where there is not much soil , and immediately it sprouts on account of the lack of the soil 's depth . * And when the shemesh arose , the zera (note :)seed (:note ) was scorched , and because it did not have a root , it withered . * And others fell among the thorns , and the thorns grew up and choked them . * But others fell on the good ground , and they yielded fruit : the one , one hundred , the other , sixty , the other , thirty . * The one having ears , let him hear !" * And , approaching , the talmidim said to Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach , "Why in meshalim (note :)parables (:note ) are you speaking to them ?" * And Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach answered them , "Because to you it has been granted to know the razi 'im (note :)mysteries (:note ) of the Malchut HaShomayim , but to those it has not been granted . * For whoever has , [more ] will be given to him ,and he will have an abundance . But whoever does not have , even what he has will be taken from him (note :)see Mt .25:14-29 (:note ). * For this reason in meshalim I am speaking to them , for while seeing they do not see , and [while ] hearing they do not hear , nor do they understand . * And in them is fulfilled the nevu 'ah (note :)prophecy (:note ) of Yeshayah , saying , SHIM 'U SHAMO 'A V 'AL TAVINU UREU RA 'O V 'AL TEIDA 'U "In hearing you will hear and by no means understand , and seeing you will see and by no means perceive ". * HASHMEIN LEV HA 'AM HAZEH V 'AZNAV HACHBEID V 'EINAV HASHA , PEN YIREH V 'EINAV UVE 'AZNAV YISHMAH U 'LEVAVO YAVIN , V 'SHAV N 'RAFAH LOH . ("For the heart of this people has been made dull , and with [their ] ears they are hard of hearing , and their eyes are shut , lest they see with the their eyes and with [their ] ears they hear , and with the lev (note :)heart ) they understand and they turn and I will give them refu 'ah [healing ]," YESHAYAH strkjv @6:9-10 (:note ) * But ashrey (note :)happy , blessed (:note ) are your eyes , for they see , and your ears , for they hear . * For truly I say to you that many Nevi 'im and tzaddikim desired to see what you see , and they did not see [it ], and to hear what you hear , and they did not hear it . REBBE , MELECH HAMOSHIACH EXPLAINS THE MASHAL OF THE SOWER AND THE MESIRAT NEFESH (note :)DEVOTION (:note ) NECESSARY TO ENTER THE MALCHUT HASHEM * "You , therefore , listen to the mashal of the sower . * When anyone hears the Dvar HaMalchut and does not understand it , haRah (note :)the Evil one (:note ) comes and seizes that which was sown in his lev heart . This is the zera seed sown along the path . * And the zera sown upon the rocky places is the person listening to the Dvar Hashem and immediately with simcha receives it . * Yet he has no root in himself but is short-lived , and when ES TZARAH * comes or persecution on account of the Dvar Hashem , immediately he ceases being a ma 'amin Meshichi (note :)Messianic believer (:note ) and becomes meshummad apostate , falling away and giving up the [true Orthodox Jewish ] faith . * And the [zera ] sown among the thorns is the one hearing the dvar (note :)word (:note ), and the rogez HaOlam Hazeh the anxiety of this age , DEVARIM strkjv @28:65 and the deceit of riches , chokes the Dvar Hashem and it becomes unfruitful . * And the zera sown upon the adamah hatovah (note :)the good ground (:note ), this is the one who hears the Dvar Hashem and , understanding [it ], indeed bears p 'ri and , one produces a hundred , the other sixty , the other thirty ." ANOTHER MASHAL * Another mashal Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach placed before them , saying , "The Malchut HaShomayim is like a man sowing zera tov (note :)good seed (:note ) in his field . * But while men slept , his oyev (note :)enemy (:note ) came and oversowed weeds in between the wheat and went away . * But when the wheat sprouted and produced p 'ri , then the weeds also appeared . * So the servants of the Ba 'al Bayit said to him , `Adoneinu , did you not sow zera tov (note :)good seed (:note ) in your field ? How then does it have weeds ? * And he said to them , An oyev did this . So the servants say to him ,`Do you want us to go and pull them all ? * But he says , No , lest gathering the weeds you should uproot the wheat together with them . * Permit both to grow together until the katzir (note :)harvest (:note ); and in time of the katzir , I will say to the kotzerim reapers , "Collect first the weeds , and bind them into bundles to burn them . But the wheat gather into my barn ." * ANOTHER MASHAL * Another mashal Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach placed before them , saying , "The Malchut HaShomayim is like a mustard seed , which a man , taking , sowed in his field . * This which is indeed less than all the zera 'im (note :)seeds (:note ), but when it grows , it is larger than the garden vegetables and it becomes an aitz tree , so that the OF HASHOMAYIM the birds of heaven , IYOV strkjv @35:11 come and dwell in its branches ." ANOTHER MASHAL * Another mashal Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach spoke to them . "The Malchut HaShomayim is like se 'or (note :)leaven (:note ), which having taken , a woman hid in shalosh three satas of wheat flour until the whole was leavened ." * All these things Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach spoke in mashalim to the multitudes . And apart from mashalim Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach did not speak to them , * so that might be fulfilled what was spoken through the Navi , saying , EFT 'CHA V 'MASHAL PI A 'VIAH CHIDOT MINI-KEDEM (note :)"I will open my mouth with parables , I will utter things having been hidden from the foundation of the world ," TEHILLIM strkjv @78:2 (:note ) * Then having sent away the multitudes , Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach came into the bais (note :)house (:note ). And Moshiach 's talmidim approached him , saying , `Explain to us the mashal of the weeds of the field .` * And answering , Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach said , `The Sower of the zera tov is the Ben HaAdam (note :)Moshiach (:note ). * The field is HaOlam Hazeh . And the zera tov , the good seed , these are the Bnei HaMalchut , and the weeds , these are the bnei haRah (note :)sons of the Evil one , Bereshis strkjv @3:15 (:note ). * And the Oyev (note :)the Enemy (:note ) sowing them is Hasatan . And the Katzir Harvest , this is the Kets HaOlam the end of the age . And the kotzerim reapers , harvesters are malachim angels . * As the weeds are pulled up and gathered and are consumed with Aish (note :)Fire (:note ), so also it will be at the Kets HaOlam . * The Ben HaAdam (note :)Moshiach (:note ) will send forth his malachim , and they will pull up and gather out of the Moshiach 's Malchut all the things making meshummad apostate and the ones who are without Torah and antinomian . * And Moshiach 's malachim will throw them into the furnace of Aish ; there will be weeping and grinding of the teeth . * Then the tzaddikim will shine as the shemesh in the Malchut of their Father . The one having ears , let him hear . * The Malchut HaShomayim is like otzar (note :)treasure (:note ) hidden in the field , which , having found , a man hid . And from the simcha he experienced , he goes away and sells everything which he has and buys that field . * Again , the Malchut HaShomayim is like a merchant searching for fine pearls . * And having found one precious pearl , he went away and liquidated everything he had and acquired it . * Again , the Malchut HaShomayim is like a reshet (note :)net (:note ) having been cast into the lake , a reshet collecting and gathering dagim fish of all descriptions , * which , when this reshet (note :)net (:note ) was filled , they hoisted it upon the shore , sat down , collected the tov into a creel , and the rah , they threw out . * Thus it will be at the Kets HaOlam Hazeh . The malachim will go out and they will separate the resha 'im from among the tzaddikim . * And they will throw the resha 'im into the furnace of Aish . In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth . * Did you understand all these things ?" They say to Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach , "Ken ." * So Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach said to them , "Therefore , every sofer (note :)scribe , Torah-teacher (:note ) who becomes a talmid of the Malchut HaShomayim is like a man [who is ] a Ba 'al Bayit , who takes out of his otzar treasure , chadashot new things and also yeshanot old things ." * And it came about when Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach finished these meshalim , that he went away from there . TAKING OFFENSE AT REBBE , MELECH HAMOSHIACH * And having come into Moshiach 's shtetl , he began ministering as a moreh (note :)teacher (:note ) in their shul , so they were amazed and said , "From where did this chochmah come to this one , this chochmah and these moftim miracles /wonders /omens ? * Is this not the ben hanaggar (note :)the carpenter 's son (:note )? Is not his Em called Miryam ? And are not his achim Ya 'akov , Yosef , Shimon and Y 'hudah ? * And are not his achayot (note :)sisters (:note ) with us ? From where , therefore , came to this one all these things ?" * And they were taking offense at Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach . But Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach said to them , "A Navi (note :)prophet (:note ) is not dishonored except in his hometown and in his bais ." * And Rebbe , Melech HaMoshiach did not accomplish in that place many moftim , because of their lack of emunah and bittachon .
