32. The Parable of the Fortified City. Jesus said, "A city built and fortified on a high mountain can't fall, nor can it be hidden."
33. The Parable of the Lamp. Jesus said, "What you hear with one ear, listen to with both, then proclaim from your rooftops. No one lights a lamp and puts it under a basket or in a hidden place. Rather, they put it on the stand so that everyone who comes and goes can see its light."
34. The Parable of Those Who Can't See. Jesus said, "If someone who's blind leads someone else who's blind, both of them fall into a pit."
35. The Parable of Binding the Strong. Jesus said, "No one can break into the house of the strong and take it by force without tying the hands of the strong. Then they can loot the house."
36. Anxiety. Jesus said, "Don't be anxious from morning to evening or from evening to morning about what you'll wear."
37. Seeing Jesus. His disciples said, "When will you appear to us? When will we see you?"
Jesus said, "When you strip naked without being ashamed, and throw your clothes on the ground and stomp on them as little children would, then [you'll] see the Son of the Living One and won't be afraid."
38. Finding Jesus. Jesus said, "Often you've wanted to hear this message that I'm telling you, and you don't have anyone else from whom to hear it. There will be days when you'll look for me, but you won't be able to find me."
39. The Keys of Knowledge. Jesus said, "The Pharisees and the scholars have taken the keys of knowledge and hidden them. They haven't entered, and haven't let others enter who wanted to. So be wise as serpents and innocent as doves."
40. A Grapevine. Jesus said, "A grapevine has been planted outside of the Father. Since it's malnourished, it'll be pulled up by its root and destroyed."
41. More and Less. Jesus said, "Whoever has something in hand will be given more, but whoever doesn't have anything will lose even what little they do have."
42. Passing By. Jesus said, "Become passersby."
43. The Tree and the Fruit. His disciples said to him, "Who are you to say these things to us?"
"You don't realize who I am from what I say to you, but you've become like those Judeans who either love the tree but hate its fruit, or love the fruit but hate the tree."
44. Blasphemy. Jesus said, "Whoever blasphemes the Father will be forgiven, and whoever blasphemes the Son will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, neither on earth nor in heaven."
45. Good and Evil. Jesus said, "Grapes aren't harvested from thorns, nor are figs gathered from thistles, because they don't produce fruit. [A person who's good] brings good things out of their treasure, and a person who's [evil] brings evil things out of their evil treasure. They say evil things because their heart is full of evil."
