thesaurou that fascinates forever .....

..... then peculiarly, Jesus finishes with the following : 

Have ye understood all these things?They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

Then said he unto them, 

Therefore * every scribe 

which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven 

is like unto a man that is an householder, 

which bringeth forth out of his treasure

things new and old. (M13:51)

I was blessed to read an expansion from Robert Capon

soon after I quoted the verse above in my previous post.

Some of the following is from 
"Parables of Kingdom, Judgement, Grace."

This is Jesus bringing a humorous but pointed end 
to his teaching in the parables.

"Ya understand ?"

"Yep."

"Ok then you'll will get this next bit too ! ...."

Understood (synekate = bring together) all these things?

i.e. have you pulled these new ideas together?

Yes (nai) has all the meanings from 

"definitely got it" to "probably" to "sort it soon" to "move on" !!

Cheekily, Jesus says 

"ok, so you've pulled all the new ideas together from the parables, 
ok then, you will get this."

Here scribe (grammateus) is referring to the real scribe

not the political/religious one.

The scribe,

taught by the Kingdom;

taught for the Kingdom;

taught in relation to the Kingdom;

a learner in the Kingdom;

every careful listener to the new things 

I have been teaching about the Kingdom;

is like a "lord of the manor" (oikodespotes)

who brings out (ekkballei) 

things from his treasure (thesaurou),

things attained today and now revealed from yesterday.

If you get what I've just opened up for you,

you will unlock the treasure house !

Jesus has taught on the mystery of Kingdom;

it is universal (catholic) (kneaded into the whole lump),

it is paradoxically hidden not plausibly manifest,

it is now, not future,

it operates in the midst of hostility not only in welcome,

it mystifyingly has responses of non-violence, patience,

non-interference, and "put it on the line, investment";

rather than warfare, haste, plausible interference,

and easy safe purchases.

In this thesaurou is a new thesaurus of words 

shedding light on the mystery of the Kingdom.

Here, Holy Spirit constantly cross-references Himself in His Word,

making all things new to the eternally fascinated learner.
