I recall growing up hearing about the parable of the hidden treasure and pearl of great value in the Bible. Everything I heard revolved around the idea of people giving up everything to follow Jesus. I never really thought twice about these parables until one day God spoke to me and revealed a truth about it that I’ve never seen or heard up until that time.
So what does these two parables actually mean in Matthew 13:44 & Matthew 13:45-46? The true meaning reveals God’s great love towards us. The treasure in the field and pearl of great price represents you and me. In His eyes we were lost children in the wrong hands. So God came down as a man, Jesus Christ and paid the ultimate price to get us back.
When God first revealed this to me it blew my mind in a good way. I never realized God saw me and others as being so valuable to Him. As I began to seek Him more on if these parables had other hidden truths. He began to reveal more answers that I didn’t see before. As you read on I’ll go into more details about these two parables and also other related scriptures that go hand in hand with what Jesus was referring to when He said this.

The Treasure Hid In The Field Explained
I recall one day reading some scriptures when I came to the parable about the hidden treasure in the field. This time when I read it God was trying to tell me something I didn’t see before. I remember saying to Him, “Yah I see it, we are supposed to give up everything to follow you.” Then I began to start reading some other scriptures elsewhere in the Bible.
God then told me to go back. So I went back but kind of with an attitude as if I already knew what the parable meant. However, since He is God aka the potter and I’m Josh aka the clay, I listened and went back.
As I read it again I basically said to God, “Yah I see it.” Thinking I already had the full meaning of the parable. I thought it only meant that Jesus was the treasure/pearl and we were supposed to give everything to purchase the treasure/pearl and follow Him. Mostly because this is what I heard the majority of preachers and teachers say. I truly thought this was the full meaning but I still knew God told me to go back for some reason. (I’ll go into this meaning in more detail later)
So I finally asked Him, “What is it? What are you trying to show me?” Kind of how the disciples went and asked Jesus the meaning of the parables in their day.
All of a sudden it was like a rocket of information hit me as God lovingly said: “You’re the treasure in the field.” I was instantly in awe at the nugget of truth God just revealed to me. It shifted my whole way of thinking about the parable and others to come!
It also taught me a valuable lesson that although we may think we know something in the Bible, we should ask God for the understanding. Especially because He wrote it and He definitely knows the meaning. Remember to trust Him when He tries to teach us.
Let’s inspect this parable and begin to take a deeper look.
- Jesus said in Matthew 13:44 (KJV) Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
In this parable the man represents Jesus, the treasure represents the children of the kingdom and the field represents the earth.
How Do We Know Thats the Meaning?
A couple of verses earlier the disciples ask Jesus about the meaning of the tares/weeds parable. Here we gain some insight into what the field actually means straight from Jesus’s interpretation.
- Matthew 13:36-38 (KJV) Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field. 37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; 38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
The Field And Treasure Meaning
Based on Jesus’s explanation to the disciples here, we can begin to see and interpret the other parables that Jesus spoke of in the same chapter. For example, Jesus said that the field represents the world or earth. Knowing this we can conclude in Matthew 13:44 the field must also mean the world.
- Matthew 13:44 (NKJV) Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in the world, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
- Matthew 13:44 (NKJV) Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys the world.
So what about the treasure in the field or treasure in the world? How do we know exactly that this represents the children of the kingdom? To understand this and the context of treasure in this parable, let’s think about the meaning of treasure first from a normal viewpoint.
- Treasure is something that represents value.
- Treasure is not necessarily money.
- Treasure to one person may be junk to another.
- If treasure is lost it’s not really beneficial, although it is still considered valuable.
- If treasure is found its value can be seen and is beneficial in some form.
- Treasure is usually protected in some way.
- Treasure is sometimes hidden to be kept safe or hidden from others.
The greek word for treasure is thesauros (G2344). Thayer’s definition is basically the place in which good and precious things are collected and laid up.
Knowing this definition let’s look up some scriptures in relation to treasure from God’s perspective.
- Matthew 6:21 (KJV) For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
- Matthew 12:35 (KJV) A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
- Zechariah 2:8 (KJV) For thus saith the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.
- Hebrews 12:2 (KJV) Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
- John 3:16-17 (NKJV) For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
- Luke 15:4-6 (NKJV) What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? 5 And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!
Scripture says where our treasure is our heart will be also. (Matthew 6:31) This verse also applies to God and His heart/treasure. As we can see from these scriptures above we are the focal point of God’s heart. This reveals that God’s heart is for us and loves us. Knowing this we can see that we are considered His treasure from His perspective.
God even calls us the apple of His eye. Since we are the apple of His eye He brought us good things such as eternal life and all the promises of the kingdom of God through Jesus Christ. This all came out of God’s good heart for us. He loves us and wants to help us tremendously.
We were lost sheep that needed to be found. That’s why the loving Shepard aka God came looking for us. He cares for us so much that it was even considered a joy for Him to endure the cross for our sake.
These are just a few scriptures that show we are God’s treasure because His heart is for us and where your heart is your treasure will be also.
Let’s take a look at this parable again and think about the treasure portion now. Remember, God considers us His treasure.
- Jesus said in Matthew 13:44 (KJV) Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
- Treasure is something that represents value. We are valuable to God.
- Treasure is not necessarily money. Although we aren’t money God says where your treasure is, so will your heart be. God’s heart is obviously towards us. So we are His treasure.
- Treasure to one person may be junk to another. People in the world and Satan might consider you as junk but God considers you as treasure.
- If the treasure is lost it’s not really beneficial, although it is still considered valuable. Although we were lost we were considered valuable in God’s eyes still. That’s why He sent Jesus!
- If treasure is found its value can be seen. It’s beneficial in some form. Once we are found, we become children of the kingdom. We can be beneficial according to God’s purpose for our lives and the lives of others around us. Let your light shine, don’t cover it up!
- Treasure is usually protected in some form. God is our protection and safety.
- Treasure is sometimes hidden to be kept safe or hidden from others. I believe this has two meanings. See below.
- God covered our sin under the old covenant by a sin offering, so we wouldn’t be judged. However, God now removes our sin through the offering of Jesus Christ so we won’t be judged. He hid/removed the sin so we would be safe in His eyes. He keeps us safe from the enemy’s attacks/sin.
- Jesus sowed us, His treasure in the earth so we can be a blessing and benefit to the world and others around us. Even if the world doesn’t see or acknowledge what we have to offer. Which is Jesus and the kingdom.
Some people may think that you’re worthless or poor in value. Some may call you names or even try to defame you’re worth. However part of the good news is regardless of what other people may think or even what you may think, God still knows you’re worth it. God knows your true potential. You’re still a treasure to Him. So be encouraged.
The Man Who Sold All To Buy the Field
Let’s face it, If God didn’t think you were worth it, He never would have paid the ultimate price. The price paid to purchase something reflects the value of what’s purchased.
If you weren’t considered important then God never would have gone to such lengths to buy you back. He never would have gone the extra mile to reveal you’re true potential. Look at these scriptures which help to reveal the part of the parable about Jesus purchasing the field to get the hidden treasure/field back.
- 1 Corinthians 6:20 (NKJV) For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.
- 1 Corinthians 7:23 (NKJV) You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men.
- John 15:12-14 (KJV) This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
In the parable, it says the man bought the field. What’s interesting is the one who owned the field before didn’t realize there was the treasure in it. If the previous owner of the field did he never would have sold it.
This is basically the devil who didn’t realize God’s plan to restore the children of God back to their full potential in Christ Jesus.
God bought us back from the bondage of sin and from Satan. He did this through the offering of Jesus Christ and Satan had no clue what hit him. Let’s look at some scriptures below.
- Hebrews 2:14-15 (NKJV) Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
- 2 Timothy 2:24-26 (NKJV) And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to all, able to teach, patient, 25 in humility correcting those who are in opposition, if God perhaps will grant them repentance, so that they may know the truth, 26 and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
- Colossians 2:13-15 (NKJV) And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, 14 having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15 Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
- John 8:34-36 (NKJV) Jesus answered them, Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin. 35 And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever. 36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.
There is no higher price one person can pay than to lay down their own life. There is no greater love one can have than laying down their life for a friend. That’s exactly what Jesus did for us. We were the joy that was set before Him. That’s why He paid the highest price to get us back. Also in the process of doing this, he also set us free from the bondage of sin and Satan.
The following verses show how badly Jesus was beaten on his way to and at the cross. This is all part of the payment He endured for us.
- Isaiah 52:13-14 (NKJV) Behold, My Servant shall deal prudently; He shall be exalted and extolled and be very high. 14 Just as many were astonished at you, So His visage was marred more than any man, And His form more than the sons of men;
- Hebrews 12:2 (NKJV) looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
To me, this reveals two things that also pertain to the parable of the hidden treasure.
- Jesus paid the highest price by wanting to lay down his life to buy us back. This included him being disfigured so badly that no one else ever came close to that type of disfigurement.
- You only pay the price for something, if you consider it worth the price tag. You purchase it because of its value to you. If it’s not worth the price tag, you don’t buy it. Jesus knew the price to get His children back and He believed it was well worth it. In God’s eyes, you’re so valuable that you’re considered priceless to Him.
That being said Jesus paid the ultimate price by laying down His life for us. He did this because Satan/Sin tried to steal our true identity from us. Jesus became unrecognizable for us on the cross so we can be recognizable to our Heavenly Father again as children of the kingdom.
Our true identity from day one was supposed to be how it was with Adam and Eve before they ever sinned. God wanted to restore us back to our original value which was life with Him by taking sin out the equation. The very sin which tried to imprison us. The only way to do that was by paying the price.
On top of this, the parable says the man sold all to buy the field. Some may ask what did God/Jesus sell? I believe God came down from Heaven and became a man to purchase us back. God didn’t have to leave heaven but He did because He wanted to buy us back.
Jesus also made a sacrifice for us. Part of God becoming a man was a form of selling all. Part of Jesus not having a place to lay His head was a form of selling all. Part of Jesus giving/laying down his life was a type of selling/payment at the same time.
Scripture even states He became poor so we can become rich through Jesus. This also reflects how He sold all for us as well. Here are a couple of scriptures.
- 2 Corinthians 8:9 (NKJV) “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.“
- Matthew 8:20 (NKJV) And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.“
- Luke 9:58 (NKJV) And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.“
You see God/Jesus had to sell or give something up in order to make a purchase. He came from above to dwell with us here on earth as a man. While Jesus was here on earth He had no place to lay His head. He was constantly being sought after to be killed. He was rejected by the religious leaders of His day, which was the Pharisees.
Although some did believe and follow Him, He also had others who eventually rejected Him and thought he was crazy. Jesus spoke the truth regardless of how it made Him look to the public. He decided to love even when knowing some would betray Him. This all helps to paint the picture of the parable about Him selling or giving when He didn’t have to. All because He wanted to purchase us back. (See John 6:60-66)
This lines up with the parable of the person selling all to buy the field/treasure. Jesus sold it all to purchase us. He made a lot of sacrifices for us along the way to the Cross. We are bought with the price of His blood at the Cross where He said it is finished.
The Hidden Treasure Parable Deciphered
Now that we laid some groundwork with scriptures above. Let’s look at this parable side by side with the parable of the tares, where Jesus gives us the interpretation of the field.
- Matthew 13:36-38 (NKJV) Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field.” 37 He answered and said to them: “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.“
- Matthew 13:44 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.“
So knowing what Jesus identifies the field as the world/earth, the man as Jesus, and the treasure as lost children of God. Would it be wrong to see the same parable now like this?
- Matthew 13:44 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like lost children of God in the world, which Jesus found and hid; and for joy over it Jesus goes and lays down His life and buys the world.“
Praise God! When God revealed this truth to me it changed my whole perspective in regards to this parable! Thank you, Jesus, for you’re great love towards us!
The Pearl Of Great Price Parable Explained
Now that we know the meaning of the hidden treasure in the field let’s look at the pearl of great price. These two parables are very similar.
- Matthew 13:45-46 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.“
In this parable, the merchant is seeking and searching for specific beautiful pearls. However when He found one specific pearl of great price he sold all and bought it.
What’s interesting is the merchant was actually seeking and looking for one type of pearl. He wasn’t looking for just something ordinary, he wanted something extraordinary.
He didn’t just settle for something of common value he went after the best pearl he could find.
However, this particular pearl was in the wrong hands at first. At least from the merchant’s perspective. The merchant had a mentality like, I must have this pearl. That’s why he went to such lengths by selling all he had to buy it.
The merchant here represents Jesus. The pearl of great price is similar to treasure and is the children of the kingdom. (See 1 Corinthians 6:20, 1 Corinthians 7:23, John 15:12-14, Matthew 6:21, Matthew 12:35, Zechariah 2:8, Hebrews 12:2, John 3:16-17, Luke 15:4-6)
That being said, would it be incorrect if we read that same parable like this?
- Matthew 13:45-46 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.”
- Matthew 13:45-46 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is Jesus seeking the lost children of the kingdom, 46 who, when he had found one lost child of the kingdom, went and sold all that he had and bought it.”
- Pearls are typically a high valued item. We are worth significant value to God. Even just one person.
- Pearls are an item that typically is shown or worn as an accessory. God wants to shine His light through our lives to others. Christ in us is the hope of glory. (Colossians 1:27)
- Notice the merchant was in search of a specific type of pearl. Typically rarer pearls would have a higher price. God is searching for people who will believe and trust in Him.
- Notice the merchant didn’t buy the more common pearls. Although God desires everyone to be saved some people just won’t believe and accept Jesus as their Lord and savior.
Another Meaning For These Two Parables
The other meaning of this parable is the more commonly heard one. This involves us giving up all to follow Jesus. Let’s take a look at the two parables again and explain.
- Matthew 13:44 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.“
- Matthew 13:44 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like God/Jesus hidden in the world, which we found and hid; and for joy over it we go and sell all that we have and follows/accepts Jesus.“
- Matthew 13:45-46 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.“
- Matthew 13:45-46 (NKJV) “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like us seeking God, 46 who, when he had found Jesus, went and sold all that we had and followed God/Jesus.“
The interpretation of this meaning is the treasure is God/Jesus and His promises. The man is us and we go sell all we have to buy the field with the treasure/pearl, which means us following Jesus.
I believe this is more of a secondary type of meaning. Let me explain why and give you some scriptures.
To begin with we can’t purchase the kingdom of God. We can’t buy Jesus or our way into heaven. It sounds silly when we put it bluntly like that. Jesus is a free gift to all who believe and accept Him.
However, I don’t believe this is what most people think when they read that parable along with this type of interpretation. They aren’t saying we are buying the kingdom, they are more likely referring to Jesus is our treasure and we now follow Him. I can understand that because of Matthew 16:24-25.
- Matthew 16:24-25 (NKJV) Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. 25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.”
This makes sense and I agree. If someone chooses to believe God/Jesus, when they come to Jesus they should count the cost and follow Him.
Here is what some people may not realize though. We can’t come to God on our own. We can’t bear fruit on our own. We can’t do any of these actions on our own. We need help from God, even from the very first step. Take a look at these scriptures.
- We can do nothing apart from Jesus. We can’t even bear fruit apart from Jesus.
- John 15:4-5 (NKJV) “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.”
- We can’t come to Jesus unless the Father draws us to Him.
- John 6:44 (NKJV) “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
- John 6:65 (NKJV) And He said, “Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.“
I believe this parable explanation is considered secondary for this very reason. However, it’s still 100% true and we should definitely follow Jesus. Even though this is considered secondary it’s still very important and shouldn’t be thrown out the window.
The reason I bring it up that way is because that’s what the scriptures state. So in regards to this secondary meaning of us finding Jesus and following Him by our own strength. The reality is we couldn’t even do that on our own. We still needed the assistance and help from God. Thanks be to God for His mercy and grace to help us!
This secondary meaning of the parable actually points us back to the primary meaning of the parable which we discussed earlier. Jesus buying us back.
Now that we have both explanations of the parables let’s compare.
Comparing The Parables First And Second Meaning
- Primary meaning of the parable – God/Jesus found us and bought us back by laying down His life.
- Secondary meaning of the parable – We found God/Jesus and decided to believe/accept Him as our Lord/savior and follow Him.
To me, this secondary explanation about us finding Jesus and following Him. Point us back to the primary explanation of the parable. Which is Jesus found us and bought us back. This is because scripture says we can’t find Jesus unless we are drawn by God. (John 15:4-5, John 6:44,65)
Since that’s the reality of it, once God finds us and draws us to Jesus then He can help us follow Jesus in our daily walk. God then helps us bear fruit and follow Jesus in all our ways. The main reason the secondary reason is considered secondary is that it’s impossible to have that meaning without the primary meaning. (I know lol its a tongue twister)
We must remember we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus. Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. The scriptures state it’s the goodness of God that leads people to repentance.
- Ephesians 2:8-10 (NKJV) For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
- Romans 2:4 (NKJV) Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
- Hebrews 12:2 (NKJV) looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
- Romans 12:3 (NKJV) For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
So God is there from our very first moment of believing. He actually helped write that faith upon our hearts! You couldn’t mustard up that faith on your own, nor could I. It came because of God drawing us to Him and giving His Word (Jesus) to us. This all points back to why the first meaning of this parable is the primary meaning. Without it, the secondary meaning wouldn’t even be possible.
Once we realize how much God loves us and cares for us then we can follow Him with His guidance and help. That’s why I believe the primary explanation of these two parables holds more weight. The first explanation shows God’s goodness and mercy towards us while revealing our true value in His eyes.
It’s because of God’s goodness and grace that caused Jesus to sell all He had to purchase us back by dying and rising from the grave. He became poor so we can become rich through Him. Therefore God now draws us to Jesus through this goodness.
- 2 Corinthians 8:9 (NKJV) For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.
- Romans 2:4 (KJV) Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
Now we can see how much He paid for us. Now we are able to see the author and finisher of our faith Jesus, who is our example in life. It’s His very goodness that leads us to repentance. This is why we can come to Him and follow Him. So the primary meaning is the very cause of the secondary meaning of the parable.
Both of these explanations that I spoke about are valid. We are God’s/Jesus’s treasure and God/Jesus is our treasure as well. However, in regards to selling all we have to follow Jesus. We must remember we are saved by grace through faith and not of our works.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post! I hope this has stirred you up and blessed you in such a way to seek God more in terms of this parable and others He spoke of.
