4:30 The small seed produces a large result

(Mat. 13:31-32, Luke 13:18-19)

30 Again he said, “What could we liken God’s kingdom to? Or what parable could we explain it with? 31 It’s like planting a mustard seed in the ground—a very small seed. 32 But when it’s planted and grows up, it forms a large bush with many branches so that birds can rest in its shade.”

33 And so as much as they could handle it, Yeshua shared the good message with them via many similar word pictures. 34 He never spoke without these illustrations, but he explained all of them to his close followers.

30 And he _was _saying:
How may _we _liken the kingdom of_ the _god, or with what parable may _we _present it?
31 As to_a_seed of _mustard, which whenever it _may _be _sown on the earth, being smaller than all the seeds which on the earth, 32 and whenever it _may _be _sown, is _going _up and is _becoming greater than all the garden _plants, and is _producing great branches, so _that the birds of _the sky to _be _able to _be _nesting under the shadow of _it.
33 And with_ many _such parables, he _was _speaking the message to _them, as they _were _able to _be _hearing, 34 and he _was_ not _speaking without parable to _them, by but himself to _his own apprentices/followers, he _was _explaining all things.
