And unclean spirits, when they saw Him, fell down before Him, and were crying out, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

The sower sows the word.

and the cares of the age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and desires concerning other things coming into them, choke out the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
