THE PARABLE 4)F THE SOWER.
By EDGAR HALL
In tfainldiiK about this panlfle we
are accustomed to dwell upon the
■ower, or the seer, or the soil ntore
than upon the yield; yet it was of
the yield that the sower was think
ing as he labored. Jesus is also in-
htuejted in dhe fniitas:e.of Hish^ord.
The Word has fallen into' our hearts
hnt what shall the harvest be? Each
ma is responsible. On the shore of
Sea ' of Galilee, standinsr on its
ady * beach and sitting; on its grassy
nks, were gathered the multitude
iiie from the pul;rit of a fishing
boat. Jesus delivered to them tbh
parable. It was among the first re
corded instances of His using this
mefthod of teadiing dnd it seems to
have surprised the dishipleR. as they
