The mustard seed
The article 'The mustard seed' explains how this parable of Jesus illustrates the growth of the Kingdom of God, even from the smallest beginnings. It examines the three accounts in the Synoptic Gospels.
Matthew 13.31-32 (King James Version) :Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org
