ルカによる福音書 8:9 JC

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 8:4-21

The former paragraph began with an account of Christ's industry in preaching (Luke 8:1); this begins with an account of the people's industry in hearing, Luke 8:4. He went into every city, to preach; so they, one would think, should have contented themselves to hear him when he came to their own city (we know those that would); but there were those here that came to him out of every city, would not stay till he came to them, nor think that they had enough when he left them, but met him when he... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 8:4-15

8:4-15 When a great crowd had gathered, and when they came to him from every city, Jesus spoke to them by means of a parable. The sower went out to sow his seed. As he sowed some seed fell by the wayside. It was trampled upon and the birds of the heaven devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground where it grew up and withered because there was no moisture. Other seed fell in the middle of thorns and the thorns grew up along with it and choked the life out of it. Other seed fell into good... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 8:9

And his disciples asked him ,.... That is, as Mark says, "when he was alone"; after the multitude were departed, and they were by themselves, it may be in some house with other disciples: saying, what might this parable be ? what is the sense and meaning of it? According to Matthew, they asked why he spake in parables to the people; and to such a question the following words are a proper answer. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:1-21

The evangelistic circuit. Observe— I. THE PLAN OF CIRCUIT . ( Luke 8:1 .) "He went," or "went about," or "kept journeying." Hitherto Capernaum had been the centre from which short excursions were taken, the Lord always returning to it. Now he moves steadily on from place to place, "passing in patience until his work is done." "Through cities and villages." He will not omit any abode of man. If social influence and power had been the aim, this Prophet would have limited his... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:1-21

Incidents in evangelistic work. We have now to contemplate Jesus as fairly loosed from Capernaum as the centre of his mission work, and as making systematically the tour of the province of Galilee. The "beloved physician" gives to us here just such an insight into the material conditions of Christ's evangelistic work as we naturally desire. Let us, then, notice— I. THE SPIRITUAL AND TEMPORAL SIDES OF OUR LORD 'S EVANGELISTIC WORK . ( Luke 8:1-3 .) Twelve men and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:9

.— And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be! This is the only parable St. Luke gives as spoken by our Lord in this place. St. Matthew—who gives the additional detail that on account of the pressure of the crowd on the lake-shore it was spoken from a boat moored close to the bank—relates seven parables here in sequence. It is probable that the Master spoke some of these at least on this occasion, but St. Luke, possibly on account of its extreme solemnity, possibly... read more

Luke 8:4-15. And when much people were gathered together To be instructed by his discourse, as well as to see, or be healed by, his miracles; and were come to him In crowds; out of every city In that part of the country; he spake by a parable Having first, for greater conveniency of being better heard and less incommoded by them, entered into a ship, where he sat, and from thence taught them. A sower went out to sow, &c. See this parable explained at large in the notes on... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 8:1-18

PARABLES54. The sower (Matthew 13:1-23; Mark 4:1-29; Luke 8:1-18)To visit all the towns of Galilee was a huge task. Jesus and his disciples were helped in this work by a group of women who went with them to look after their daily needs (Luke 8:1-3). Crowds of people came to see Jesus wherever he went, and were often a hindrance to the progress of the gospel. It seems that one reason Jesus began to teach extensively in parables was to separate those who were genuinely interested from those who... read more
