In this week’s parable the Kingdom of God is first likened to a joyous treasure whereby we give all, sell all, and abandon all to obtain. Matthew then partners this with yet a second parable where the Kingdom of God is a Merchant on the hunt willing, to abandon everything when he finds the pearl of great value. In the first parable, the kingdom of heaven is the treasure that is stumbled upon and found. In the second, we see that the kingdom of heaven itself is out seeking, longing to obtain a priceless possession.
