Contextual Overview

4 When moch people were gadred to gether and were come to him out of all cities he spake by a similitude. 5 A sower went out to sowe his seede: and as he sowed some fell by the waye syde and it was troden vnder fete and the foules of the ayre devoured it vp. 6 And some fell on ston and assone as it was spronge vp it widdred awaye because it lacked moystnes. 7 And some fell amonge thornes and ye thornes spronge vp with it and choked it. 8 And some fell on good grounde and sproge vp and bare frute an hondred foolde. And as he sayde these thinges he cryed: He that hath eares to heare let him heare. 9 And his disciples axed him sayinge: what maner similitude is this? 10 And he sayde: vnto you is it geven to knowe the secretes of the kyngdom of God: but to other in similitudes that when they se they shuld not se: and when they heare they shuld not vnderstonde. 11 The similitude is this. The seede is ye worde of God. 12 Thoose yt are besyde the waye are they that heare and afterwarde cometh ye devyll and taketh awaye the worde out of their hertes lest they shuld beleve and be saved. 13 They on the stonnes are they which when they heare receave the worde with ioye. But these have noo rootes which for a whyle beleve and in tyme of temtacio goo awaye.

Bible Verse Review

thorns: Luke 8:14, Luke 21:34, Genesis 3:18, Jeremiah 4:3, Matthew 13:7, Matthew 13:22, Mark 4:7, Mark 4:18, Mark 4:19, Hebrews 6:7, Hebrews 6:8

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And some fell among thorns,.... On ground which had within it the roots of thorns and briars; and design such hearers who have their hearts filled with worldly cares, and sensual lusts and pleasures:

and the thorns sprang up with it; and grew faster than that:

and choked it; as the above things do the word, and make it useless and unprofitable; so that though it took place for a while, and was professed, yet process of time was neglected and dropped; and, as Mark says, "it yielded no fruit"; at least that came to perfection.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the parable of the sower explained in the notes at Matthew 13:1-23.
