Chapter 12 begins a pivotal moment in the ministry of Jesus. It is the national rejection of Jesus as Messiah by the leaders. And because of this, Jesus withdraws His offer as Messiah to the nation and begins to speak of a new “mystery” kingdom”. So, Israel will not receive the kingdom at this time, but instead, a kingdom that was not foretold will now be birthed. Jesus reveals the nature of this “new mystery kingdom” (the church) by way of speaking in parables. The Parable of the Sower becomes the foundation to understanding this new kingdom.
