Contextual Overview
1One day Jesus rode down to the lake. There was such a large crowd that he jumped up on a stack of hay.
2He taught them a lot of things by telling them stories. He said,
3"A farmer went out to plant his fields.
4As he planted, some of the seeds fell on the road, and the birds ate it all up.
5Other seeds fell next to some rocks where there wasn't much dirt. The seeds took root quickly in the shallow soil,
6but they withered quickly because there was nowhere for the roots to go.
7Other seeds fell among the cactus and thistles. They sprouted, but were choked out by the thorns.
8And finally, some seeds found good soil and produced a lot of grain. Some of it yielded thirty times as much, some sixty, and still some a hundred times.
9Whoever has ears should be listening." 10Later on, when they were alone, some of his cowboys asked about the stories.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And some fell among thorns,.... The word was ministered to some who were eat up with the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and other lusts:
and the thorns grew up, and choked it; the word did not take place so as to beat down, overcome, and root out these things, nor even to weaken, and keep under, and prevent the influence of them; but these got the ascendant of the word, and prevailed over it, and made it altogether useless and unsuccessful: for whilst it was administered, the minds of these persons were after their riches and worldly things, and gave no heed to the word; and last were prevailed upon, not to attend upon it, but drop the profession of it:
and it yielded no fruit; it was not the means of grace; faith did not come by it, nor any other grace; nor did it produce good works in the life and conversation.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
