16 Awake, O north wind,and come, O south wind!
Blow upon my agarden,
let its spices flow.
Together in the Garden of Love
She
bLet my beloved come to his cgarden,and eat its dchoicest fruits.
Song of Solomon 5:1
He
1 I ecame to my garden, my fsister, my bride,I gathered my gmyrrh with my spice,
I ate my hhoneycomb with my honey,
I idrank my wine with my milk.
Others
Eat, jfriends, drink,and be drunk with love!
Isaiah 55:10-11
10 k“For as the rain and the snow come down from heavenand do not return there but water the earth,
making it bring forth and sprout,
lgiving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
11so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth;
it shall not return to me empty,
but mit shall accomplish that which I purpose,
and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
Isaiah 58:11
11And the Lord will guide you continuallyand satisfy your desire in scorched places
and make your bones strong;
and you shall be nlike a watered garden,
like a spring of water,
whose waters do not fail.
Matthew 13:3
3And ohe told them many things in parables, saying: p“A sower went out to sow.Matthew 13:8
8Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some qa hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.Matthew 13:23
23As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and runderstands it. He indeed sbears fruit and yields, in one case ta hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”Mark 4:26-32
The Parable of the Seed Growing
26And he said, u“The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground. 27He sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows; vhe knows not how. 28The earth produces by itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. 29But when the grain is ripe, at once whe puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”The Parable of the Mustard Seed
30 xAnd he said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it? 31It is like ya grain of mustard seed, which, when sown on the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth, 32yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden plants and puts out large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.”
