<div class='section'>Matthew 13; Luke 8; 13</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音第13章；路加福音第8章、第13章</div>
<div class='section'>“Who Hath Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear”</div>
<div class='section'>「有耳可聽的，就應當聽」</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>1</span>As you read Matthew 13 and Luke 8; 13, think about how you will prepare yourself to “hear” and appreciate the Savior’s teachings in these parables.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>2</span>What will you do to apply these teachings in your life?</p>
<div class='section'>RECORD YOUR IMPRESSIONS</div>

<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>3</span>Some of the Savior’s most memorable teachings were in the form of simple stories called parables.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>4</span>These were more than just interesting anecdotes about ordinary objects or events.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>5</span>They contained profound truths about the kingdom of God for those who were spiritually prepared.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>6</span>One of the first parables recorded in the New Testament—the parable of the sower (see Matthew 13:3–23)—invites us to examine our readiness to receive God’s word.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>7</span>“For whosoever receiveth,” Jesus declared, “to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance” (Joseph Smith Translation, Matthew 13:10 [in Matthew 13:12, footnote a]).</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>8</span>So as we prepare to study the Savior’s parables—or any of His teachings—a good place to start is to examine our hearts and determine whether we are giving the word of God “good ground” in which to grow, blossom, flourish, and produce fruit that will bless us and our families in abundance (Matthew 13:8).</p>

<div class='section'>Matthew 13</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音第13章</div>
<div class='section'>What is “the kingdom of heaven” that Christ referred to in Matthew 13?</div>
<div class='section'>基督在馬太福音第13章中提到的「天國」是指什麼？</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>9</span>In this chapter, “the kingdom of heaven” refers to Christ’s true Church, which is the kingdom of heaven on earth.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>10</span>For more information, see Bible Dictionary, “Kingdom of heaven or kingdom of God.”</p>
<div class='section'>Matthew 13:3–23; Luke 8:4–15</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音13：3-23；路加福音8：4-15</div>
<div class='section'>My heart must be prepared to receive the word of God.</div>
<div class='section'>為了接受神的話，我的心必須作些準備。</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>11</span>Why is it that some hearts are receptive to truth while others seem to resist it?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>12</span>Reading the parable of the sower can provide a good opportunity to think about how you receive truth from the Lord.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>13</span>It might be helpful to first match verses 3–8 of Matthew 13 with the interpretations provided in verses 18–23.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>14</span>What can you do to cultivate “good ground” in yourself?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>15</span>What might be some “thorns” that keep you from truly hearing and following God’s word?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>16</span>See also Luke 13:34; Mosiah 2:9; 3:19; Alma 12:10–11; 32:28–43; Dallin H. Oaks, “The Parable of the Sower,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2015, 32–35.</p>
<div class='section'>Matthew 13:24–35, 44–52</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音13：24-35，44-52</div>
<div class='section'>Jesus’s parables help me understand the growth and destiny of His Church.</div>
<div class='section'>耶穌的比喻幫助我了解祂教會的成長與願景。</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>17</span>The Prophet Joseph Smith taught that the parables in Matthew 13 describe the growth and destiny of the Church in the latter days (see Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith [2007], 293–303).</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>18</span>As you read these parables, write down what they teach you about the Lord’s Church (you may want to refer to what the Prophet Joseph taught about some of these parables):</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>19</span>The wheat and the tares (13:24–30, 36–43): The wicked and the righteous grow together until the end of the world.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>20</span>The mustard seed (13:31–32):</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>21</span>The leaven (13:33):</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>22</span>The hidden treasure and the pearl of great price (13:44–46):</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>23</span>The net (13:47–50):</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>24</span>The householder (13:52):</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>25</span>After pondering these parables, what do you feel inspired to do to participate more fully in the work of Christ’s latter-day Church?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>26</span>What questions come to mind that can help you apply these parables?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>27</span>For instance, “What am I willing to sacrifice for the Church?”</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>28</span>See also Bible Dictionary, “Leaven,” “Parables.”</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>29</span>The gospel of Jesus Christ is a “pearl of great price” (Matthew 13:46).</p>
<div class='section'>Matthew 13:24–30, 36–43</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音13：24-30，36-43</div>
<div class='section'>The righteous must grow among the wicked until the end of the world.</div>
<div class='section'>義人必須在惡人之中成長，直到世界的末了。</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>30</span>One way to analyze this parable is to draw a picture of it and label it with the interpretations in Matthew 13:36–43 and Doctrine and Covenants 86:1–7.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>31</span>A tare is a “poisonous weed, which, until it comes into ear, is similar in appearance to wheat” (Bible Dictionary, “Tares”).</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>32</span>What truths in this parable inspire you to remain faithful in spite of the wickedness in the world?</p>

<div class='section'>In what ways did “certain women” minister to the Savior?</div>
<div class='section'>這「幾個婦女」用何種方式供應救主？</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>33</span>“Female disciples traveled with Jesus and the Twelve, learning from [Jesus] spiritually and serving Him temporally. …</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>34</span>In addition to receiving Jesus’s ministering—the glad tidings of His gospel and the blessings of His healing power—these women ministered to Him, imparting their substance and devotion” (Daughters in My Kingdom [2011], 4).</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>35</span>Women who followed the Savior also bore powerful testimony of Him (see Linda K. Burton, “Certain Women,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2017, 12–15).</p>

<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>36</span>As you study the Savior’s teachings with your family, the Spirit can help you know what principles to emphasize and discuss in order to meet the needs of your family.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>37</span>Here are some suggestions:</p>
<div class='section'>Matthew 13</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音第13章</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>38</span>As your family members read the Savior’s parables, they might enjoy thinking of their own parables that teach the same truths about the kingdom of heaven (the Church), using objects or situations that are familiar to them.</p>
<div class='section'>Matthew 13:3–23; Luke 8:4–15</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音13：3-23；路加福音8：4-15</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>39</span>What can we do as a family to cultivate “good ground” in our hearts and in our home? (Matthew 13:23).</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>40</span>If you have younger children in your family, it could be fun to invite family members to act out different ways to prepare our hearts to hear the word of God while other family members guess what they are doing.</p>
<div class='section'>Matthew 13:13–16</div>
<div class='section'>馬太福音13：13-16</div>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>41</span>How can you help your family members understand the importance of willingly receiving Christ’s word?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>42</span>For example, you might cover a family member’s ears while you quietly read Matthew 13:13–16.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>43</span>What did that family member understand from the verses?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>44</span>What role do our eyes, ears, and hearts play in receiving the word of God?</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>45</span>What are ways that we close our eyes, ears, and hearts to the word of God?</p>

<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>50</span>Memorize a scripture.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>51</span>Select a scripture passage that is particularly meaningful to your family, and invite family members to memorize it.</p>
<p class='english'><span class='englishVerse'>52</span>Elder Richard G. Scott taught, “A memorized scripture becomes an enduring friend that is not weakened with the passage of time” (“The Power of Scripture,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2011, 6).</p>
