'Word' in the Bible

So many gathered that there was no longer any room, not even by the door, and he preached the word to them.

Then Jesus' mother and his brothers came. Standing outside, they sent word to him, to summon him.

The sower sows the word.

These are the ones on the path where the word is sown: Whenever they hear, immediately Satan comes and snatches the word that was sown in them.

These are the ones sown on rocky ground: As soon as they hear the word, they receive it with joy.

But they have no root in themselves and do not endure. Then, when trouble or persecution comes because of the word, immediately they fall away.

Others are the ones sown among thorns: They are those who hear the word,

but worldly cares, the seductiveness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it produces nothing.

But these are the ones sown on good soil: They hear the word and receive it and bear fruit, one thirty times as much, one sixty, and one a hundred."

So with many parables like these, he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear.

Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like this."

They went out and proclaimed everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word through the accompanying signs.]]
