Parables of Mustard Seed and Leaven

18 So 1He was saying, "2What is the kingdom of God like, and to what shall I compare it?
19 "It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and threw into his own garden; and it grew and became a tree, and 3THE BIRDS OF THE AIR NESTED IN ITS BRANCHES."
20 And again He said, "4To what shall I compare the kingdom of God?
21 "5It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in 6three pecks of flour until it was all leavened."

Teaching in the Villages

22 And He was passing through from one city and village to another, teaching, and 7proceeding on His way to Jerusalem.
23 And someone said to Him, "Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?" And He said to them,
24 "8Strive to enter through the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able.
25 "Once * the head of the house gets up and 9shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, '10Lord, open up to us!' then He will answer and say to you, '11I do not know where you are from.'
26 "Then you will 12begin to say, 'We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets ';
27 and He will say, 'I tell you, 13I do not know where you are from; 14DEPART FROM ME, ALL YOU EVILDOERS.'
28 "15In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but yourselves being thrown out.
