[3241.12 --> 3241.88] with a plow,
[3242.84 --> 3244.08] turning the soil over,
[3244.72 --> 3245.74] and covering the seed.
[3247.26 --> 3247.44] Now,
[3247.46 --> 3248.56] this helps us understand,
[3248.76 --> 3250.00] why the birds,
[3250.08 --> 3251.34] are only able to gather,
[3251.50 --> 3252.30] and eat the seeds,
[3252.30 --> 3253.78] that are sown along the path,
[3254.66 --> 3254.88] right,
[3254.90 --> 3256.26] that they don't get the other seeds,
[3256.70 --> 3257.82] because the second farmer,
[3257.94 --> 3258.82] has come along with the plow,
[3258.88 --> 3259.52] and turned it over,
[3259.64 --> 3259.86] and so,
[3260.12 --> 3261.60] those things that are along the path,
[3261.60 --> 3262.90] where the plow can't reach,
[3263.74 --> 3264.28] are going to let,
[3264.40 --> 3264.90] be exposed,
[3265.02 --> 3265.68] so birds can come,
[3265.78 --> 3266.48] and grab those,
[3266.76 --> 3267.44] but not the ones,
[3267.52 --> 3268.28] that get turned over,
[3268.78 --> 3269.50] into the soil.
[3271.04 --> 3271.64] Now again,
[3271.82 --> 3272.34] notice there,
[3272.44 --> 3272.94] Jesus says,
[3273.06 --> 3274.04] along the path,
[3274.68 --> 3274.92] right,
[3275.02 --> 3275.24] not,
[3275.62 --> 3276.34] where the seed,
[3276.40 --> 3277.12] couldn't be plowed in,
[3277.54 --> 3278.62] the rest,
[3279.98 --> 3281.34] it rests on a surface,
[3281.34 --> 3281.98] that's open,
[3282.10 --> 3283.10] and available to the birds,
[3283.24 --> 3284.66] but it's along the side,
[3284.68 --> 3285.14] of the path,
[3285.18 --> 3286.00] it's not like,
[3286.06 --> 3287.08] it's been thrown out,
[3287.16 --> 3288.12] onto the road.
[3288.12 --> 3290.52] Now we also know,
[3290.78 --> 3291.42] from this time,
[3291.54 --> 3292.38] that the soil,
[3292.72 --> 3293.26] of Palestine,
[3293.44 --> 3293.96] and Galilee,
[3294.56 --> 3296.26] is especially shallow,
[3296.50 --> 3297.10] and rocky.
[3297.28 --> 3297.88] Now it's,
[3297.88 --> 3299.20] productive soil,
[3299.44 --> 3300.30] but there are tons,
[3300.38 --> 3301.28] of rocks in this field,
[3301.64 --> 3303.02] and that makes sense,
[3303.34 --> 3303.50] right,
[3303.56 --> 3303.80] because,
[3304.34 --> 3305.30] I don't know if you've ever been,
[3305.50 --> 3306.08] to Palestine,
[3306.22 --> 3306.64] and Galilee,
[3306.72 --> 3307.56] but most of the region,
[3307.68 --> 3308.08] is desert,
[3308.72 --> 3308.90] right,
[3308.94 --> 3310.08] it's not the flood plain,
[3310.18 --> 3311.14] of Glen Valley,
[3311.26 --> 3312.18] or Sumas Prairie,
[3312.28 --> 3313.44] which is rich,
[3313.64 --> 3315.06] in nutrient soil,
[3315.26 --> 3316.46] because the water table,
[3316.46 --> 3317.12] is so high,
[3317.26 --> 3317.98] and because it's all,
[3318.16 --> 3318.82] flooded down,
[3318.92 --> 3319.46] from the mountains,
[3319.58 --> 3320.30] full of nutrients,
[3320.38 --> 3320.96] that it's collected,
[3321.36 --> 3322.02] along the way,
[3322.12 --> 3322.74] for millennia.
[3324.68 --> 3325.12] Finally,
[3325.42 --> 3326.50] we also know,
[3327.28 --> 3327.56] that,
[3327.94 --> 3328.90] sometimes,
[3329.76 --> 3330.50] there would be,
[3330.70 --> 3331.28] two plows,
[3331.60 --> 3332.52] in the process.
[3333.12 --> 3334.44] One would go through first,
[3334.54 --> 3335.30] the farmer would seed,
[3335.44 --> 3336.22] the other would follow,
[3336.50 --> 3337.26] and turn over,
[3337.70 --> 3338.14] but,
[3338.26 --> 3339.24] not always.
[3340.44 --> 3340.86] In fact,
[3341.22 --> 3342.24] it was about 50-50,
[3342.58 --> 3343.44] if there's two plows,
[3343.82 --> 3344.22] and so,
[3344.34 --> 3345.58] if there isn't two plows,
[3345.68 --> 3346.36] it's not really,
[3346.36 --> 3347.06] a surprise,
[3347.40 --> 3347.64] right,
[3347.68 --> 3348.54] that there's weeds,
[3348.64 --> 3349.28] and thorns,
[3349.38 --> 3350.66] that get plowed in,
[3350.94 --> 3351.98] with the seed,
