12
Samson said to them, "Let me tell you a riddle now. If you can declare it to me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing;
13
but if you can't declare it to me, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing." They said to him, "Put forth your riddle, that we may hear it."
10
For it is precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little.
13
Therefore the word of Yahweh will be to them precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, fall backward, be broken, be snared, and be taken.
2
Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable to the house of Israel;
2
"Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!"
23
Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
19
When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn't understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
24
He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,
31
He set another parable before them, saying, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field;
33
He spoke another parable to them. "The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, until it was all leavened."
37
He answered them, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
44
"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
45
"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
47
"Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,
23
Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who wanted to reconcile accounts with his servants.
1
"For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who was the master of a household, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
33
"Hear another parable. There was a man who was a master of a household, who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it out to farmers, and went into another country.
2
"The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,
1
"Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.
26
He said, "The Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
27
and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he doesn't know how.
28
For the earth bears fruit: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
29
But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts forth the sickle, because the harvest has come."
30
He said, "How will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
18
He said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? To what shall I compare it?
20
Again he said, "To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?
5
because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Good News,
23
having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever.
Le Seigneur propose une parabole qui n'est pas sans analogie avec la prĂ©cĂ©dente, mais qui en agrandit l'horizon en rĂ©vĂ©lant qu'un double ensemencement s'opĂšre, dont les rĂ©sultats sont opposĂ©s dans le monde entier. Rien de plus grand que cette instruction, rarement bien comprise parce qu'elle soulĂšve des questions fort difficiles. ArrĂȘtons-nous d'abord simplement au sens littĂ©ral, et attendons l'explication du MaĂźtre. (verset 37 et suivants)
-Le texte reçu porte : un homme qui sĂšme ; il faut, d'aprĂšs une variante, a semĂ©. Ces semailles ont dĂ©jĂ eu lieu au moment oĂč la parabole commence. Par la mĂȘme raison on lit dans l'original : le royaume des cieux a Ă©tĂ© assimilĂ© Ă ...Toute cette grande action avait commencĂ© depuis longtemps par la prĂ©sence de cet homme divin qui semait en tout lieu. Aussi la parabole ne commence-t-elle pas, comme on l'aurait attendu, par ces mots : "Le royaume des cieux est semblable Ă un champ, oĂč..." mais par ceux-ci : Ă un homme, de qui tout dĂ©pend et sur lequel toute l'attention doit se porter. (Comparer verset 37.)
Quand l'ennemi sĂšme de « l'ivraie », l'homme, toujours prompt Ă succomber au pĂ©chĂ©, laisse pousser cette mauvaise herbe, qui va croĂźtre et lui faire du mal ; la « bonne semence », quant Ă elle, une fois semĂ©e, doit ĂȘtre soignĂ©e, arrosĂ©e, et entretenue.
Dans cette parabole, les serviteurs sâexprimĂšrent par cette remarque Ă leur maĂźtre : « n'as-tu pas semĂ© de la bonne graine dans ton champ » ? Sans aucun doute, c'est ce que le maĂźtre avait fait !
Quels que soient les problĂšmes et complications qui peuvent apparaĂźtre dans l'Ă©glise, nous pouvons ĂȘtre certains quâils ne proviennent pas de Christ. Bien que les grands transgresseurs et ceux qui s'opposent ouvertement Ă l'Ă©vangile, doivent ĂȘtre sĂ©parĂ©s de la compagnie des fidĂšles, aucun homme nâest cependant capable de les dissocier avec prĂ©cision. Ceux qui sâopposent Ă lâĂ©glise ne doivent pas en ĂȘtre retranchĂ©s pour autant, mais instruits, et cela avec beaucoup de douceur.
MĂȘme si le bien et le mal peuvent cohabiter en ce monde, ils seront cependant sĂ©parĂ©s au grand jour du Jugement ; le vertueux et le mĂ©chant seront alors ouvertement rĂ©vĂ©lĂ©s, bien qu'ici-bas il soit quelquefois difficile de faire la distinction entre les deux.
Sachons craindre le Seigneur, ne commettons pas l'iniquité. à leur mort, les croyants resplendiront de leur lumiÚre spirituelle ; au grand jour du Jugement, ils « brilleront » devant tous : cet éclat proviendra du reflet de la « Fontaine » de LumiÚre, Christ ! Leur sanctification sera parfaite, leur justification annoncée devant tous.
Puissions-nous faire partie de cette heureuse assemblée !
