And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.
All Commentaries on Mark 4:10 Go To Mark 4
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
And when He was alone: Gr. καταμόνας, Vulg. singularis, solitary, by Himself.
The twelve that were with Him asked Him. The Greek, Syriac, and Arabic have with the twelve, meaning that the seventy disciples, who, with the twelve Apostles, were followers of Jesus, asked Him what was the meaning of the parable of the Sower.
