Contextual Overview
4 And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of euery citie, he spake by a parable: 5 A Sower went out to sowe his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the wayes side, and it was troden downe, and the foules of the aire deuoured it. 6 And some fell vpon a rocke, and assoone as it was sprung vp, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. 7 And some fell among thornes, and the thornes sprang vp with it, and choked it. 8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang vp, and bare fruite an hundred fold. And when hee saide these things, he cryed, He that hath eares to heare, let him heare. 9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be? 10 And he said, Unto you it is giuen to know the mysteries of the kingdome of God: but to others in parables, that seeing, they might not see, and hearing, they might not vnderstand. 11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those by the way side, are they that heare: then commeth the deuil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, least they should beleeue, and be saued. 13 They on the rocke, are they which when they heare, receiue the word with ioy; and these haue no roote, which for a while beleeue, and in time of temptation fall away.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it was told him by certain, which said,.... The phrase, "which said", is omitted in the Vulgate Latin version, and in Beza's most ancient copy. The Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions only read, "and they said unto him"; and the Persic version renders it, "a certain person said"; some one person, as in Matthew 12:47
thy mother, and thy brethren, stand without, desiring to see thee; and to speak with thee, as in Matthew 12:47.
Matthew 12:47- :.
