Christ, came to sow Himself as the seed of life in His word (v. 14) into men’s hearts so that He might grow in them, live in them, and be expressed from within them. The seed sown here is the word that proceeded out of the mouth of Christ. Hence, His word is the seed, and in this seed is the divine life. the Lord Himself. His gospel service was to sow the divine life into the people whom He served. The Lord Jesus sowed the seed into the human heart.
