'Understand' in the Bible

That's why I speak to them in parables, because "they look but don't see, and they listen but don't hear or understand.'

"With them the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says: "You will listen and listen but never understand. You will look and look but never comprehend,

for this people's heart has become dull, and their ears are hard of hearing. They have shut their eyes so that they might not see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.'

When anyone hears the word about the kingdom yet doesn't understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the path.

"Do you understand all these things?" They told him, "Yes."

Then calling out to the crowd, he addressed them, "Listen and understand!

Don't you understand yet? Don't you remember the five loaves for the 5,000 and how many baskets you collected,

How can you fail to understand that I wasn't talking to you about bread? Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees!"
