(1) ApJas 8:1-2 [=SecJas 8:1-4]
/8:1/ When we heard these things, we became distressed. /2/ But when he saw that we were distressed, he said, "This is why I say this to you, that you may know yourselves. /3/ For heaven's domain is like a head of grain which sprouted in a field. And when it ripened, it scattered its fruit and, in turn, filled the field with heads of grain for another year. /4/ You also: be eager to reap for yourselves a head of the grain of life, so that you may be filled with the domain. [Complete Gospels]
