15th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Today’s Gospel marks the beginning of the third long
discourse given by Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. Over the
next few weeks, the Gospel readings will consist of the entire
13th Chapter of Matthew’s Gospel, a lengthy teaching
discourse.
Throughout this discourse, Jesus will offer several parables to
illustrate for his listeners what he means by the kingdom of
heaven. He begins with the parable of the sower, which
appears rather straightforward—of course seeds grow best in
good soil. Seeds that miss the soil, are sown on rocky ground,
or are sown among other plants will not grow. The surprise in
the parable is the enormous yield of the seed that is sown on
good soil.
Jesus then explains his use of parables. Jesus seems to
suggest that he uses parables to teach because the meanings
of parables are not self-evident. The hearer must engage in
some degree of reflection in order to comprehend the
message of a parable. In this way, the medium—the
parable—models the point of the parable of the sower. Those
who are willing to engage themselves in the effort to
understand will be rewarded by the discovery of the message
and will bear fruit.
To bring home the point, Jesus interprets the parable of the
sower to his disciples. The different types of soil in which the
seeds are sown are metaphors for the disposition with which
each individual hears the teaching about the kingdom of
heaven. Some will be easily swayed away from the kingdom
of heaven. Some will receive it for a time but will lose it
when faced with difficulties. Some will hear the word but
will then permit other cares to choke it out. Yet some will
receive it well, and the seed will produce abundant fruit.
