'Stony' in the Bible

Other seeds fell on stony ground, where they did not have a lot of soil. They sprouted at once because the soil wasn't deep.

As for what was sown on the stony ground, this is the person who hears the word and accepts it joyfully at once,

Others fell on stony ground, where they didn't have a lot of soil. They sprouted at once, because the soil wasn't deep.

Others are like the seeds sown on the stony ground. When they hear the word, at once they joyfully accept it,

Others fell on stony ground, and as soon as they came up, they dried up because they had no moisture.

The ones on the stony ground are the people who joyfully welcome the word when they hear it. But since they don't have any roots, they believe for a while, but in a time of testing they fall away.
