Luke 8:9
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.
In context
7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.
8 Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprang up and produced a crop—a hundredfold.” As Jesus said this, He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.
10 He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, ‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’
11 Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.
