Luke 13:19

It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and became a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.

Clement Of Alexandria

AD 215
Wherefore He Himself, declaring Himself very beautifully, likened Himself to a grain of mustard-seed;

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Our Lord was this mustard-seed, when he was buried in the earth; and He became a tree, when he ascended into heaven; but a tree that overshadowed the whole creation, in the branches of which the birds of heaven rested; that is, the powers of heaven, and all such as by good works have raised themselves from the earth. The apostles are the branches, to repose in whose bosoms we take our flight, borne on the wings of Christian virtue. Let us sow this seed (Christ) in the garden of our hearts, that the grace of good works may flourish, and you may send forth the various perfumes of every virtue. (St. Ambrose)

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
