Matthew 13:10-12

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Jesus Tells His Disciples He Uses Parables To Both Hide And Reveal The Truth

¹⁰ And having come to Him, the disciples said to Him, “For what reason are You speaking to them in parables?” ¹¹ And the One, having responded, said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know^[a] the mysteries^[b] of the kingdom of the heavens. But it has not been given to those ones. ¹² For whoever has— it will be given to him, and he will be caused to abound. But whoever does not have— even what he has will be taken-away from him.
