Glossa Ordinaria

Mateus 13:10

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ap. Anselm.) The disciples understanding that the things which were spoken by the Lord to the people were obscure, desired to hint to Him that He should not speak in parables to them. And his disciples came to him, and said, Why speakest thou to them in parables? — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:14

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (non occ.) That is; With the hearing ye shall hear words, but shall not understand the hidden meaning of those words; seeing ye shall see My flesh indeed, but shall not discern the divinity. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:16

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ap. Anselm.) so then the eyes of them that see, and will not believe, are miserable, but your eyes are blessed; whence it follows; Blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:16

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ord.) The mind is called an eye, because it is intently directed upon what is set before it to understand it; and an ear, because it learns from the teaching of another. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:18

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ap. Anselm.) He had said above, that it was not given to the Jews to know the kingdom of God, but to the Apostles, and therefore He now concludes, saying, Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower, ye to whom are committed the mysteries of heaven. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:19

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ap. Anselm.) He proceeds then expounding the parable; Every man who hears the word of the kingdom, that is, My preaching which avails to the acquiring the kingdom of heaven, and understandeth it not; how he understands it not, is explained by, for the evil one—that is the Devil—cometh and taketh away that which is sown in his heart; every such man is that which is sown by the way side. And note that that which is sown, is taken in different senses; for the seed is that which is sown, and the field is that which is sown, both of which are found here. For where He says carrieth away that which is sown, we must understand it of the seed; that which follows, is sown by the way side, is to be understood not of the seed, but of the place of the seed, that is, of the man, who is as it were the field sown by the seed of the Divine word. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:34-35

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ap. Anselm.) As though He had said, I who spoke before by the Prophets, now in My own person will open My mouth in parables, and will bring forth out of My secret store mysteries which have been hidden ever since the foundation of the world. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:41

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (non occ.) The offences, and, them that do iniquity, are to be distinguished as heretics and schismatics; the offences referring to heretics; while by them that do iniquity are to be understood schismatics. Otherwise; By offences may be understood those that give their neighbour an occasion of falling, by those that do iniquity all other sinners. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas

Mateus 13:51-52

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (non occ.) When the multitude had departed, the Lord spoke to His disciples in parables, by which they were instructed only so far as they understood them; wherefore He asks them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
