'He spoke many things to them in parables, saying: "Behold, a sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds came and devoured them. Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth; and they immediately sprang up because they had no depth of earth. But when the sun was up they were scorched, and because they had no root they withered away. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them. But others fell on good ground and yielded a crop: some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!" ' (Matthew 13:3-9)
After Jesus spoke the parable in our text above, His disciples asked Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables (verse 10)?" Jesus explained to them that verses that followed that the reason was because it has been given to them (His followers and all who will become His followers in the future) to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to those who, like the hardened Pharisees it has not been given (verses 11-15).
