Chapter X.&#8212;How Jesus Sowed Wheat.

In the time of sowing, Joseph went out to sow wheat, and Jesus followed him.&#160; And when Joseph began to sow, Jesus stretched out His hand, and took as much wheat as He could hold in His fist, and scattered it.&#160; Joseph therefore came at reaping-time to reap his harvest.&#160; Jesus came also, and collected the ears which He had scattered, and they made a hundred pecks of the best grain; and he called the poor, and the widows, and the orphans, and distributed to them the wheat which He had made.&#160; Joseph also took a little of the same wheat, for the blessing of Jesus to his house.
