18 And he said, `To what is the reign of God like? and to what shall I liken it? 19 It is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, did cast into his garden, and it increased, and came to a great tree, and the fowls of the heavens did rest in its branches.'
20 And again he said, `To what shall I liken the reign of God? 21 It is like leaven, which a woman, having taken, did hide in three measures of meal, till that all was leavened.'
