Subject: Who were the sowers? |
Bible Note: Hi Brent, I introduced the parable of the sower as a comparison to John 4 and it has confused the issue for the study before you. I made that comparison in response to "the Ultimate Sower" and thus introduced a different slant to your topic. I introduced the thought that Jesus was the sower in the parable just as the woman was in John 4. I'll just give my opinion on John 4 here. I''ll put my support on the side of John 4 talking only about the woman at the well and that is the "case" that is spoken of for verse 37. Thus the "others" of verse 38 are the woman and Jesus. |
