Matthew 13:1 – 17
Jesus taught extensively in parables. Often the multitudes didn’t understand the meaning of the parables, but Jesus explained them to his disciples when they asked (see Matthew 13:18 – 23). This pattern is typical of God’s ways: He gives understanding to those who are the most receptive to truth and who seek it out. Those who don’t keep seeking to understand are left in the dark. Light received brings greater light; light rejected leaves darkness. If we hunger for greater spiritual understanding, then we should strive for faithfulness in what we do understand. The light received can bring more light to our lives.
