# General Information:
Jesus compares the person who hears but does not obey his teaching to a man who builds a house that has no foundation and so will collapse when the flood comes. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile]])
# But the person
"But" shows a strong contrast to the previous person who built with a foundation.
# on top of the ground without a foundation
Some cultures may not know that a house with a foundation is stronger. Additional information may be helpful. Alternate translation: "but he did not dig down and build first a foundation" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
# torrent of water
"fast-moving water" or "river"
# flowed against
