Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Mark 4:10

_ _ After this parable is recorded the Evangelist says:

_ _ And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve — probably those who followed Him most closely and were firmest in discipleship, next to the Twelve.

_ _ asked of him the parable — The reply would seem to intimate that this parable of the sower was of that fundamental, comprehensive, and introductory character which we have assigned to it (see on Matthew 13:1).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Mark 4:1-20.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes
