14 qui seminat verbum seminat

Mark 4:14 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 4:14

The sower soweth the word.
] Though our Lord thought fit to give the above gentle rebuke to his disciples for their dulness; yet he condescends to favour them with an interpretation of the above parable, which here begins: by this it appears, that the seed in the parable, before delivered, and which fell on different sorts of ground, is the word of God, which was preached to hearers of different dispositions: the word is the word of life and truth; the word of peace and reconciliation; the word of faith and righteousness; the word of salvation; the word which publishes and declares all these to be in and by Jesus Christ.

Mark 4:14 In-Context

12 ut videntes videant et non videant et audientes audiant et non intellegant nequando convertantur et dimittantur eis peccata
13 et ait illis nescitis parabolam hanc et quomodo omnes parabolas cognoscetis
14 qui seminat verbum seminat
15 hii autem sunt qui circa viam ubi seminatur verbum et cum audierint confestim venit Satanas et aufert verbum quod seminatum est in corda eorum
16 et hii sunt similiter qui super petrosa seminantur qui cum audierint verbum statim cum gaudio accipiunt illud
