'Parable' in the Bible

"Listen, then, to the parable about the farmer.

He presented another parable to them: "The kingdom from heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.

He presented another parable to them, saying, "The kingdom from heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in his field.

He told them another parable: "The kingdom from heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all of it was leavened."

Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables. He did not tell them anything without using a parable.

Then Jesus left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to him and asked, "Explain to us the parable about the weeds in the field."

Then Peter told him, "Explain to us this parable."

"Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a wall around it, dug a wine press in it, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and went abroad.
