The Parable Of The Sower Interpreted

¹⁸ Hear you, therefore, the parable of the sower. ¹⁹ When any one hears the word of the kingdom, and understands it not, the wicked one comes and catches away that which was sown in his heart. This is he that received seed by the way side. ²⁰ He that received seed on the stony places is he that hears the word, and immediately receives it with joy.
