Mark · chapter 4 · verse 33
And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.Mark 4:33 · King James Version
Mark 4:33 in context
31It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
32But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
33And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.
34But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.
35And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

The lessons which our Saviour designs to teach us here by parables and figurative expressions are these: - I. That those who are good ought to consider the obligations they are under to do good; that is, as in the parable before, to bring forth fruit.
