Context of Mark 4:8
6When the sun came up, it was scorched, and since it had no root, it withered away. 7Other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns came up and choked it, and it didn’t produce fruit. Still other seed fell on good ground and it grew up, producing fruit that increased thirty, sixty, and a hundred times.” 9Then he said, “Let anyone who has ears to hear listen.” 10When he was alone, those around him with the Twelve asked him about the parables.
