'Farmer' in the Bible

Then he began to tell them many things in parables. He said, "Listen! A farmer went out to sow.

"Listen, then, to the parable about the farmer.

"Listen! A farmer went out to sow.

The farmer sows the word.

"A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was sowing, some seeds fell along the path, were trampled on, and birds from the sky ate them up.

Now he who supplies seed to the farmer and bread to eat will also supply you with seed and multiply it and enlarge the harvest that results from your righteousness.

Furthermore, it is the hard working farmer who should have the first share of the crops.

So be patient, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious crop from his land, being patient with it until it receives the fall and the spring rains.
