Lucas 8:7

7 Outra parte caiu entre espinhos, que cresceram com ela e sufocaram as plantas.

Lucas 8:7 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 8:7

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.

Lucas 8:7 In-Context

5 “O semeador saiu a semear. Enquanto lançava a semente, parte dela caiu à beira do caminho; foi pisada, e as aves do céu a comeram.

6 Parte dela caiu sobre pedras e, quando germinou, as plantas secaram, porque não havia umidade.

7 Outra parte caiu entre espinhos, que cresceram com ela e sufocaram as plantas.

8 Outra ainda caiu em boa terra. Cresceu e deu boa colheita, a cem por um”.Tendo dito isso, exclamou: “Aquele que tem ouvidos para ouvir, ouça!”

9 Seus discípulos perguntaram-lhe o que significava aquela parábola.
