Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ And when he was alone, his disciples asked of him what the parable was ¹¹ And he says unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all things are said in parables: ¹² That seeing they may see, and not perceive, and hearing they may hear, and not mind; lest at any time they should be converted, and I should forgive their sins.
