Contextual Overview

21 And he was saying unto them - Doth the lamp come that under the measure it should be put, or under the couch? Is it not that upon the lampstand it may be put? 22 For it is not hidden, save that it may be made visible; neither did it get hidden away, but that it might come into a place where it could be seen. 23 If any one hath ears to hear, let him hear. 24 And he was saying unto them - Be taking heed what ye are hearing: - with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured unto you, and added unto you; 25 For, he that hath, it shall be given, unto him, and, he that hath not, even what he hath, shall be taken from him. 26 And he was saying - Thus, is the kingdom of God: As a man may cast seed upon the earth, 27 and be sleeping and rising, night and day, - and the seed be sprouting, and lengthening itself, - how, he, knoweth not: 28 of itself, the earth beareth fruit, - first, a blade, afterwards, an ear, after that, full corn in the ear; 29 but, as soon as the fruit yieldeth itself up, straightway, he sendeth forth the sickle, because standing by is the harvest. - 30 And he was saying - How shall we liken the kingdom of God, or, in what parable, shall we put it?
