“The kingdom of heaven is like” is found throughout Jesus’
parables. The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a mustard seed,
leaven, a treasure hidden in a field, a merchant seeking beautiful
pearls, a dragnet, a king who wanted to settle accounts with his
servants, a landowner who hired laborers for his vineyard, a king
who arranged a marriage for his son, and a man who delivered his
good to his servants.
