Our lesson begins with the par- able which we call the Parable cl the Sower, and is the first teach- ing of its kind used by Jesus While Jesus did not invent the parabolic form of teaching, there being several instances recorded in the Old Testament, he develop- od its use to its highest slaie no one has ever equaled his ployment of it. Someone has that a parable was an earthly story with g heavenly meaning. While sitting in a boat near the shore, Jesus told the Parable of the Sower to a large crowd whien rested on the nearby land. Wheth- er or not it was inspired by the sight of a farmer actually going cul to sow is of little consequence, al- though the fact remains t of the and em- sald Was world for of hi his to describ-| = ® 0 { off the goal the trained aposties the future so largely NO eve the mus growth on ard typified Leaven, which works out but which gradually permeates whole bread.
