And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?

And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, A man went out to put seed in the earth;

The seed is the word.

And he said, O foolish men! how slow you are to give belief to what the prophets have said.

To all those who are dear to me, I give sharp words and punishment: then with all your heart have sorrow for your evil ways.
