This Parable that Jesus taught is about the hidden Kingdom of heaven…its meaning obscured from most of the crowds that were gathered around Him. But for those who believed by faith that He was truly the Messiah, they discovered the priceless value and were gladly willing to sacrifice anything & everything in order to obtain it. We see this illustrated by Paul in Philippians 3:7-8 when he talks about counting everything he had and had done in the past as refuse, or as another translation says dung…flinging away in disgust whatever interfered with, “the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.”
