Contextual Overview
1 And again He began to teach by the sea. And a large crowd was gathered to Him, so that He entered into the boat in order to sit in the sea. And all the crowd were on the land toward the sea. 2 And He taught them many things in parables, and said to them in His teaching: 3 Listen! Behold, the sower went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, it happened that one indeed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the heaven came and devoured it. 5 And another fell on the stony place where it did not have much earth. And it sprang up at once, due to not having deepness of earth. 6 And the sun rising, it was scorched. And through not having root, it was dried out. 7 And another fell into the thorn-bushes, and the thorn-bushes grew up and choked it; and it did not yield fruit. 8 And another fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, going up and increasing; and one bore thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundredfold. 9 And He said to them, The one having ears to hear, let him hear. 10 And when He was alone, those around Him, with the Twelve, asked Him as to the parable.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said unto them,.... To the multitude of hearers that were on the sea shore attending to the word preached, and among whom, doubtless, there were all those sorts of hearers mentioned in this parable:
he that hath ears to hear, let him hear: observe, and take notice of what has been said, as being of the greatest moment and importance: for a larger explanation and illustration of this parable, see the notes on Matthew 13:3.
