(Matt 13:1 [TS98]) And on that day יהושע went out of the house and sat by the sea. (Matt 13:2 [TS98]) And large crowds were gathered together to Him, so that He went into a boat and sat down. And all the crowd stood on the beach. (Matt 13:3 [TS98]) And He spoke to them much in parables, saying, “See, the sower went out to sow. (Matt 13:4 [TS98]) “And as he sowed, some indeed fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured them. (Matt 13:5 [TS98]) “And others fell on rocky places, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil. (Matt 13:6 [TS98]) “But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered. (Matt 13:7 [TS98]) “And others fell among thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them. (Matt 13:8 [TS98]) “And others fell on good soil and yielded a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. (Matt 13:9 [TS98]) “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” (Matt 13:10 [TS98]) And the taught ones came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?” (Matt 13:11 [TS98]) And He answering, said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the secrets of the reign of the heavens, but to them it has not been given. (Isa 24:5 [TS98]) For the earth has been defiled under its inhabitants, because they have transgressed the Torot, changed the law, broken the everlasting covenant. (Isa 24:6 [TS98]) Therefore a curse shall consume the earth, and those who dwell in it be punished. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth shall be burned, and few men shall be left. (Matt 13:13 [TS98]) “Because of this I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. (Matt 13:14 [TS98]) “And in them the prophecy of Yeshayahu is completely filled, which says, ‘Hearing you shall hear and by no means understand, and seeing you shall see and by no means perceive, (Matt 13:15 [TS98]) for the heart of this people has become thickened, and their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, lest they should understand with their heart, and turn back, and I heal them.’
