+Threads aren't exactly the concept you ask for, because the include the
+messages before the message-id in question as well. Nonetheless, maybe
+the following helps:
+
+
+% notmuch show $(notmuch search --output=threads $MESAGEID)
+
+or
+
+% notmuch search --output=messages $(notmuch search --output=threads $MESAGEID)
