Interwoven Gospels 1. THE HIDDEN TREASURE "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and concealed; and because of his joy, he goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. 2. PEARL OF GREAT PRICE; "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to a man who is a merchant seeking beautiful pearls: and having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it. 3. THE NET "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like to a drag-net, cast into the sea and gathering together of every kind; which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach; and, sitting down, they gathered the good into vessels, but the bad they cast away. So shall it be in the end of the age. The angels shall go forth and shall separate the wicked from the midst of the righteous, and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there will be lamentation and gnashing of teeth." 4. THE HOUSEHOLDER And He said to them, "Therefore every scribe who hath been discipled to the kingdom of heaven, is like to a man, master of a household, who bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old." And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, He departed thence, "Have ye understood all these things?" They say to Him, "Yea."
