Luke 13:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 [a]It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his garden, and it grew, and waxed a great tree, and the fowls of the heaven made nests in the branches thereof.
20 ¶ (A)And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 It is like leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three pecks of flour, till all was leavened.
