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 Uno que sembraba, sali贸 谩 sembrar su simiente; y sembrando, una parte cay贸 junto al camino, y fu茅 hollada; y las aves del cielo la comieron.
6 Y otra parte cay贸 sobre la piedra; y nacida, se sec贸, porque no ten铆a humedad.
7 Y otra parte cay贸 entre las espinas; y naciendo las espinas juntamente, la ahogaron.
8 Y otra parte cay贸 en buena tierra, y cuando fu茅 nacida, llev贸 fruto 谩 ciento por uno. Diciendo estas cosas clamaba: El que tiene o铆dos para oir, oiga.
9 Y sus disc铆pulos le preguntaron, diciendo, qu茅 era est谩 par谩bola.
