The Parable of the Mustard Seed
30 And(A) he said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God,(B) or what parable(C) can we use to describe it? 31 It’s like a mustard seed(D) that, when sown upon the soil, is the smallest of all the seeds on the ground. 32 And when sown,(E) it comes up and grows taller than all the garden plants,(F) and produces large branches, so that the birds of the sky(G) can nest in its shade.”
