'Soil' in the Bible

Other seeds fell on rocky ground where they did not have much soil. They sprang up quickly because the soil was not deep.

But other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.

But as for the seed sown on good soil, this is the person who hears the word and understands. He bears fruit, yielding a hundred, sixty, or thirty times what was sown."
