"Have You Heard - Part 2"

I recently re-encountered a Biblical text that "Have You Heard - Part 2" seems to echo.  Previously, I wasn't convinced that this similarity was anything more than coincidence, but I felt now that I should at least note it.  In Matthew 13:24, Jesus starts telling His disciples a parable:  "He put another parable before them, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.'"  Much of the same vocabulary appears in the line "Scatter good seed in the fields" in "Have You Heard - Part 2."
