Jesus continues to explain to his disciples the parable about a person who sows seeds.

# the deceitfulness of riches

"the love of money"
# he becomes unfruitful
The person is spoken of as if he were a plant. Being unfruitful represents being unproductive. Alternate translation: "he becomes unproductive" or "he does not do what God wants" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
