And it happened that He went through the grainfields on the sabbath day. And as they walked His disciples began to pluck the heads of grain.

And He said to them, Does a lamp come to be put under a grain-measure, or under a bed? and not to be set on a lampstand?

For the earth brings out fruit of itself, first the blade, then the ear, after that the full grain in the ear.

It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth.

And He commanded them all to recline, group by group, on the green grass.

And they clothed Him with purple and plaited a crown of thorns and put it around His head.
