“The Sower is The Son of Man, and the seed which fell on the road is everyone who hears ‘The Kingdom of heaven’ and does not understand it. Satan [the adversary] comes and snatches away from his heart everything which was sown in it. This is the seed which fell on the road.”
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan [the adversary] comes immediately, and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.
