MATTHEW 13 HAS THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF PARABLES IN A SINGLE NEW TESTAMENT CHAPTER! IT RECORDS THE PARABLES OF THE SOWER (VERSES 3 - 23), TARES (24 - 30, 36 - 43), MUSTARD SEED (31 - 32), LEAVEN (33), HIDDEN TREASURE (44), PEARL OF GREAT PRICE (45 - 46) AND THE DRAGNET (47 - 50). SOME BIBLICAL COMMENTARIES CONSIDER JESUS' TEACHING ABOUT THE GOOD HOUSEHOLDER (VERSE 52) TO ALSO BE A PARABLE, MAKING EIGHT TOTAL IN THE CHAPTER!
