# Connecting Statement:
Jesus begins to explain the meaning of the parable of the soils to his disciples.
# The seed is the word of God
"The seed represents the word of God"
# The ones along the path are those
"The seeds that fell along the path are those." Jesus tells what happens to the seeds as it relates to people. AT: "The seeds that fell along the path represent people" or "In the parable, the seeds that fell along the path represent people" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# are those who
Jesus speaks of the seeds showing something about people as if the seeds were the people. AT: "show what happens to people who" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts
This means that he causes them to forget the word of God that they have heard.
# takes away
In the parable this was a metaphor of a bird snatching away the seeds. Try to use words in your language that keep that image. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# so they may not believe and be saved
Since this is the devil's purpose, it can be translated as: AT: "because the devil thinks, 'They must not believe and they must not be saved'" or "so they will not believe with the result that God saves them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# The ones on the rock are those
"The seeds that fell on the rocky soil are those." Jesus tells what happens to the seeds as it relates to people. AT: "The seeds that fell on the rocky soil represent people" or "In the parable the seeds that fell on the rocky soil represent people" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# the rock
"the rocky soil"
# in a time of testing
"when they experience hardship"
# they fall away
This idiom means "they stop believing" or "they stop following Jesus" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])
