Parable of the Sower
Parable of the Sower
Parable of the Sower
This was Jesus’s first complete parable. It was one of the few with an authentic interpretation from Christ’s own lips.
It is found in the Gospels of Matthew 13:3-8 & 18-23, Mark 4:4-8 & 14-20, and Luke 8:5-8 & 11-15.
The setting was near the Sea of Galilee when Jesus spoke to a multitude standing by the seashore where one could see a farmer planting a cultivated fields, rocky soils, neglected thorny fields and trodden paths.
The Parable addresses the following:
The Sower. Primary Sower is the Son of man.
The seed is the Word-the message of salvation.
The various soils. The hardened roadside, the shallow stony soil, the thorny soil & the good ground.
The produce of the various soils and Jesus’s interpretation. The good ground hears the Word, understands the Word and bears fruit.
