PARABLE 6 OF 22
The Pearl of Great Price
Mattityahu 13:45–46
PARABLE · TO THE DISCIPLES
A merchant finds one pearl of supreme value and sells everything he has to buy it.
THE PARABLE
45Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,46who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
WHAT YESHUA IS SAYING
The merchant is no novice — he knows pearls. When he finds the one, he liquidates the rest. Yeshua is the one pearl. To know Him is to find every other 'good thing' instantly relative. Sell. Buy.
