He speaks in parables, particularly to those who are not prepared to receive the word in plainness. They hear of a sower, of seed that grows by itself, of wheat and tares, of mustard seed and of leaven, of hidden treasure and a pearl of great price, and of the gospel net. (Bruce R. McConkie, The Mortal Messiah, Vol.2, p.231)
