13This is why I speak to them in parables, because aseeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, bnor do they understand.Mark 4:33-34
33 cWith many such parables he spoke dthe word to them, eas they were able to hear it. 34He did not speak to them fwithout a parable, but gprivately to his own disciples he hexplained everything.
