Bible Question (short): Who were the sowers? |
Question (full): Who are the others who have labored before in John 4:38, so that the fields are now (at the time Jesus spoke) "white for harvest" (John 4:35)? 35 ""Do you not say, 'There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest. 36 ""Already he who reaps is receiving wages and is gathering fruit for life eternal; so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. 37 ""For in this case the saying is true, " One sows and another reaps.' 38 ""I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.'' |
