PARABLE: The Sower’s Seed
4 And he (He; Yahusha) began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him (Him) a great multitude (crowd), so that he (He) entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude (crowd) was by the sea on the land.
2 And he (He) taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine (His teaching),
(NOTE: parable (noun) = a simple story used to illustrate or explain a moral or spiritual lesson, as told by Yahusha (the original name of the Messiah in the Hebrew language) in the Gospels)
3 Hearken (Pay attention); Behold (Look), there went out a sower to sow (plant seed by scattering it on or in the earth):
4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured (ate) it up.
5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered (became dry and shriveled) away.
7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded (produced) no fruit.
8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield (produce) fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an (a) hundred.
9 And he (He) said unto them, He that hath (has) ears to hear, let him hear.
10 And when he (He) was alone, they that were about him (around Him) with the twelve asked of him (Him) the parable.
11 And he (He) said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive (understand); and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted (turn from their rejection of truth), and their sins should be forgiven them.
(AMP Bible: 12 so that they will continually look but not see, and they will continually hear but not understand, otherwise they might turn [from their rejection of the truth] and be forgiven.)
13 And he (He) said unto them, Know ye not this parable (Do you not know this parable)? and how then will ye (you) know all parables?
14 The sower soweth (sows) the word.
15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh (comes) immediately, and taketh (takes) away the word that was sown in their hearts.
16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;
17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth (arises) for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended.
18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness (deception / dishonesty) of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh (becomes) unfruitful.
20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an (a) hundred.

5 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake unto (spoke to) Moses, saying,
2 Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath (has) an issue, and whosoever is defiled (tainted, contaminated) by the dead:
3 Both male and female shall ye (you) put out, without the camp shall ye (you) put them; that they defile (taint, contaminate) not their camps, in the midst whereof I dwell.
4 And the children of Israel did so, and put them out without the camp: as the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake unto (spoke to) Moses, so did the children of Israel.
Laws Regarding Restitution
5 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake unto (spoke to) Moses, saying,
6 Speak unto the children of Israel, When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass (offend) against the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) and that person be guilty;
7 Then they shall confess their sin which they have done: and he shall recompense (make restoration/restitution for) his trespass (sin) with the principal (first in order of importance, main) thereof, and add unto it the fifth part thereof, and give it unto him against whom he hath trespassed (has wronged).
8 But if the man have no kinsman (redeemer, relative) to recompense the trespass unto, let the trespass be recompensed unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), even to the priest; beside the ram of the atonement (forgiveness), whereby an atonement (forgiveness) shall be made for him.
9 And every offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they bring unto the priest, shall be his.
10 And every man’s hallowed things (holy gifts) shall be his: whatsoever any man giveth the priest, it shall be his.
Law Regarding Jealousy
11 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake unto (spoke to) Moses, saying,
12 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man’s wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
13 And a man lie with her carnally (bodily), and it be hid (hidden) from the eyes of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled (tainted, contaminated), and there be no witness against her, neither she be taken with the manner;
14 And the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled (tainted, contaminated): or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled (tainted, contaminated):
15 Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance.
The Test of Bitter Water
16 And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah):
17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water:
18 And the priest shall set the woman before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and uncover the woman’s head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which is the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth (causes) the curse:
19 And the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the woman, If no man have lain (lie) with thee (you), and if thou hast (you have) not gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of thy (your) husband, be thou (you) free from this bitter water that causeth (causes) the curse:
20 But if thou hast (you have) gone aside to another instead of thy (your) husband, and if thou (you) be defiled (tainted, contaminated), and some man have lain (lie) with thee (you) beside thine (your) husband:
21 Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, The Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) make thee (you) a curse and an oath among thy (your) people, when the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) doth (does) make thy (your) thigh to rot, and thy (your) belly to swell;
22 And this water that causeth (causes) the curse shall go into thy (your) bowels (intestines), to make thy (your) belly to swell, and thy (your) thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen.
23 And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water:
24 And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causeth (causes) the curse: and the water that causeth (causes) the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter.
25 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman’s hand, and shall wave the offering before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and offer it upon the altar:
26 And the priest shall take an handful of the offering, even the memorial thereof, and burn it upon the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water.

28 And if the woman be not defiled (tainted, contaminated), but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed (children).
29 This is the law of jealousies, when a wife goeth (goes) aside to another instead of her husband, and is defiled (tainted, contaminated);
30 Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh (comes) upon him, and he be jealous over his wife, and shall set the woman before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and the priest shall execute upon her all this law.

6 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake unto (spoke to) Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When either man or woman shall separate themselves to vow a vow of a Nazarite, to separate themselves unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah):
3 He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried.
4 All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk.
5 All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth (separates) himself unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.
(AMP Bible: 5 All the time of the vow of his separation no razor shall be used on his head. Until the time of his separation to the Lord is completed, he shall be holy, and shall let the hair of his head grow long.)
6 All the days that he separateth (separates) himself unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) he shall come at no dead body.
7 He shall not make himself unclean for his father, or for his mother, for his brother, or for his sister, when they die: because the consecration (purification) of his God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) is upon his head.
8 All the days of his separation he is holy unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah).
9 And if any man die very suddenly by him, and he hath (has) defiled (tainted, contaminated) the head of his consecration; then he shall shave his head in the day of his cleansing, on the seventh day shall he shave it.
10 And on the eighth day he shall bring two turtles, or two young pigeons, to the priest, to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
11 And the priest shall offer the one for a sin offering, and the other for a burnt offering, and make an atonement (forgiveness) for him, for that he sinned by the dead, and shall hallow (consecrate, make holy) his head that same day.
12 And he shall consecrate unto (dedicate himself to) the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) the days of his separation, and shall bring a lamb of the first year for a trespass offering: but the days that were before shall be lost, because his separation was defiled (tainted, contaminated).
Days of Separation Fulfilled
13 And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled: he shall be brought unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:
14 And he shall offer his offering unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), one he lamb of the first year without blemish (flaw) for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish (flaw) for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish (flaw) for peace offerings,
15 And a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled (mixed) with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread anointed with oil, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings.
16 And the priest shall bring them before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), and shall offer his sin offering, and his burnt offering:
17 And he shall offer the ram for a sacrifice of peace offerings unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), with the basket of unleavened bread: the priest shall offer also his meat offering, and his drink offering.
18 And the Nazarite shall shave the head of his separation at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shall take the hair of the head of his separation, and put it in the fire which is under the sacrifice of the peace offerings.
19 And the priest shall take the sodden (boiled) shoulder of the ram, and one unleavened cake out of the basket, and one unleavened wafer, and shall put them upon the hands of the Nazarite, after the hair of his separation is shaven:
20 And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah): this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine.
21 This is the law of the Nazarite who hath (has) vowed, and of his offering unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) for his separation, beside that that his hand shall get: according to the vow which he vowed, so he must do after the law of his separation.
Blessings on the Children of Israel
22 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake unto (spoke to) Moses, saying,
23 Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying, On this wise ye (you) shall bless the children of Israel, saying unto them,
24 The Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) bless thee (you), and keep thee (you):
25 The Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) make his (His) face shine upon thee (you), and be gracious unto thee (you):
26 The Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) lift up his (His) countenance upon thee (you), and give thee (you) peace.
27 And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.

The meal for Passover on the 14th day of the month of Nisan at twilight (evening sunset) is called Seder (The Lord’s Supper in Luke 22:1-20). The Passover lamb in Egypt foreshadows Yahusha (the original name of the Messiah in the Hebrew language) our Passover Lamb. The blood of the Passover Lamb rescued the Hebrew firstborn from death [Exodus 12:1-28] during the execution of the 10th plague.
