1 Soon afterward, Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news (gospel) of the kingdom of God {Theou}. The Twelve were with Him, 2 as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits {pneumatōn} and infirmities: Mary (beloved) called Magdalene (of Magdala), from whom seven demons had gone out, 3 Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna (lily), and many others. These women were ministering to them [to Him] out of their own means. 4 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable: 5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it. 6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.
