Matthew 13:34–35
Prophecy and Parables
34 eAll these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed, he said nothing to them without a parable. 35 This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet:1
f“I will open my mouth in parables;
gI will utter what has been hidden hsince the foundation of the world.”
Mark 4:33–34
33 hWith many such parables he spoke ithe word to them, jas they were able to hear it. 34 He did not speak to them kwithout a parable, but lprivately to his own disciples he mexplained everything.
