And he spoke many things unto them in parables, saying,
Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
All Commentaries on Matthew 13:3 Go To Matthew 13
Jerome
AD 420
He was indoors, staying at the house, where he spoke to the disciples about that which is holy. He who sows the word of God then went out of his house that he might sow among the crowds. This means that the sower who sows is the Son of God the Father, sowing the word among the ordinary people. Note too that this is the first parable that was given with an interpretation. Furthermore, whenever the Lord speaks to his disciples and answers their questions indoors, he sows words that give us to understand nothing more or less or other than what he has accurately explained. .
