And when He was alone, those who were about Him with the twelve asked Him about the parable.

but without a parable spoke He not unto them. And when they were alone, He expounded all things to His disciples.

And the disciples came and said unto Him, "Why speakest Thou unto them in parables?"

Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house, and His disciples came unto Him, saying, "Explain unto us the parable of the tares of the field."

Then answered Peter and said unto Him, "Explain to us this parable."

Then came the disciples to Jesus apart and said, "Why could we not cast him out?"

And Jesus said unto them, "Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, if ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, `Remove hence to yonder place,' and it shall remove. And nothing shall be impossible unto you.
