The Sermon on the Mount and the Garden of Eden
The first two large blocks of teaching in Matthew is the Sermon on the Mount and then this block of parables. What's striking me here though reading these parables is that Jesus isn't doing anything novel really. It's like he's read Hebrew scripture the way we just kind of walked through it. He's talking to people. And he's just saying guys, Eden, Eden life, like it's about being fruitful and multiplying.
