Parable of the Sower
Parable of the sower
The Parables are a section of the Matthews Evangelium in the Christian Bible. It is a common inspiration and focus for interpretation or themes during sermon.
The Parables consist of tales that Jesus is said to have been a crowd of people following him and they explained Goods word and moral by using ordinary events. Following each Parable is an interpretation of it made to state what the parable actually wants to explain to us.
The first of these parables is the one about the sower. Overhead 1.
"Behold, a sower went forth to sow; 4: And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: 5: Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: 6: And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. 7: And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: 8: But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. 9: Who hath ears to hear, let him hear" (Matt. 13).
This parable is supposed to be a narrative for the reader to help interpret and understand the significance of faith, but as for all the parables it might be extremely heard for people today to understand the connection between the words and the actual meaning. Even with Jesus interpretation the parable might be misleading if you don't know during what kind of circumstances it was written or the habits or customs of the time. Remember first that when Jesus lived being a farmer was much more common than nowadays. The farmers went around and scattered their seeds by hand and now we do it all by machines.
Here the seed represents the word of God. The different grounds are the humans / or the human souls which in contrast from the seed all have different initial position. What God says and his morals are equal to anyone, the seed is equally
