Here's another point: yeast represents sin. As the Israelites were to sweep out their houses to remove any possible remaining yeast, when we accept Christ, God sweeps the sin out our hearts. We are no longer infected with sin; we are made pure, as with the bread without yeast.

Remember, also, Jesus is bread of life, pure and without sin (yeast)

What was Jesus trying to teach us in the parable of the yeast?

A common interpretation is that the meal is the world and the leaven is the gospel which will be preached throughout the world until everyone becomes saved. However leaven is always a type of sin, evil, false doctrine in the Bible. For example Jesus warned against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees (Matthew 16:6, Matthew 16:12) and the leaven of Herod (Mark 8:15). In 1Corinthians 5:6-8 leaven is defined as malice and evil. So in this parable Jesus warns against the permeating power of evil working in the kingdom of heaven.
