When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus, knelt before him and said, “Sir, have pity on my son,
who is an epileptic and suffers terribly. He has often fallen into the fire, and at other times into the water.

How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to me.”

He went to his hometown and taught the people in their synagogue.
They were amazed and said, “Where did he get this wisdom and these special powers?

Aren’t all his sisters living here? Where did he get all these things?”

Gospel: Matthew 13:47-53
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a big fishing net, let down into the sea, in which every kind of fish has been caught.
When the net is full, it is dragged ashore. Then they sit down and gather the good fish into buckets, but throw the bad away.
That is how it will be at the end of time; the angels will go out to separate the wicked from the just,
and to throw the wicked into the blazing furnace, where they will weep and gnash their teeth.”

Jesus offered them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.
It is smaller than all other seeds, but once it is fully grown, it is bigger than any garden plant; like a tree,
the birds come and rest in its branches.”

Gospel: Matthew 13:44-52
The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure, hidden in a field. The one who finds it, buries it again;
and so happy is he, that he goes and sells everything he has, in order to buy that field.
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a trader, who is looking for fine pearls.
Once he has found a pearl of exceptional quality, he goes away, sells everything he has and buys it.
