“ Hearing they shall hear, and shall not understand;
And seeing they shall see, and shall not perceive:
[36] [40] The heart of this people is waxed gross,
And their hearing with their ears is become heavy,
And they have closed their eyes ”

“ When ye know not this parable, how shall ye know all parables? [41, 42] [45] Hear ye the parable of the sower. [46] The sower which sowed, sowed the word [43] of God. [47] Every one who heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, the evil one cometh and snatcheth away the word that hath been sown in his [44] heart: and this is that which was sown on the middle of the highway. [48] But that which was sown on the rocks is he that heareth the word, and straightway receiveth [45, 46] [Arabic, p. 65] it with joy ”

“ The queen of the south shall rise in the judgement with the people of this generation, and condemn [7] them: for she came from the ends of the earth that she might hear the wisdom of Solomon; [6] [Arabic, p. 62] and behold, here is a better than Solomon. [8] The men of Nineveh shall stand in the judgement with this generation, and condemn it: for they repented at [7] the preaching of Jonah; and behold, here is a greater than Jonah. [9] The unclean spirit, when he goeth out of the man, departeth, and goeth about through places wherein are no waters, that he may find rest for himself ”
