"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." (Matthew 13:44-46 NIV)
In the parable, the man found treasure and the merchant found a rare gem. Both deemed their finds to be more valuable than all of their previous acquisitions. They both liquidated their possessions in order to possess their finds.
