This study deals with parables’ discourse related in chapter 13 of Matthew’s Gospel. It questiones the way this corpus presents some values to the readers. In the first part, the research establishes the main interpretation’s axes of Mt 13 : redaction and sources, structure, attendances and parables’ fonction. This state of the art proposes to read Mt 13 following a dynamic relation with the reader. In the second part, a synchronic exegesis, then a diachronic exegesis are proposed and both specify the question of values based on the parabolic language and his theme, the Kingdom of heaven. In the third part, Vincent Jouve’s method of analysis (University of Reims) is applied to Matthew 13 : on the basis of narrative semiotic, it aims to determine the value-effect of a text, i.e. its ideologic system. At this stage, the study highlightes the desire’s valorization expressed by the parabolist, i.e. a truth of existential nature led by the story. A re-reading of the discourse in terms of effects is then proposed and measures the parable effect in text and out of text. Excluded from his usual ideologic system, the reader of Matthew 13 must indeed be confronted to parables : these promote the imaginery and make discover the real. Touched by the text, the reader can live a parabolic experience. This experience cannot be totally included by the langage but it leaves clues in the story. During the appropriation work of the reader, a meeting with the text can happen and "the word of Kingdom" can be received.
