Exegesis
The verse opens with a fronted object phrase, allen parabolen {Ἄλλην παραβολὴν | Ál-lēn pa-ra-bo-lḕn} ‘another parable’, followed by the verb paretheken {παρέθηκεν | pa-ré-thē-ken} ‘he set before, presented’ and the indirect object autois {αὐτοῖς | au-toîs} ‘to them’. This word order (object–verb–indirect object) highlights the new parable as the focal element of the sentence.
In context — Matthew 13:24
He set another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field .”
