Marcos 4:4

4 A medida que esparcía la semilla por el campo, algunas cayeron sobre el camino y los pájaros vinieron y se las comieron.

Marcos 4:4 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 4:4

And it came to pass, as he sowed
Whilst he was preaching the, Gospel, casting about the precious seed of the word, he was laden with:

some fell by the way side;
the common beaten path: the word was dispensed among some men comparable to it, on whom it lighted, but made no impression; there it lay, though not long, and was not inwardly received, and took no root, and consequently was of no effect:

and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up;
the devils, who have their abode in the air, especially the prince of the posse of them; and the Syriac version reads it in the singular number, "and the fowl came"; that ravenous bird of prey, Satan, who goes about seeking what he may devour; and for this purpose attends where the word is preached, to hinder its usefulness as much as in him lies.

Marcos 4:4 In-Context

2 Les enseñaba por medio de historias que contaba en forma de parábola, como la siguiente:

3 «¡Escuchen! Un agricultor salió a sembrar.

4 A medida que esparcía la semilla por el campo, algunas cayeron sobre el camino y los pájaros vinieron y se las comieron.

5 Otras cayeron en tierra poco profunda con roca debajo de ella. Las semillas germinaron con rapidez porque la tierra era poco profunda;

6 pero pronto las plantas se marchitaron bajo el calor del sol y, como no tenían raíces profundas, murieron.
