# Connecting Statement:
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus finishes telling a parable about a person who sows seeds.
|
||||
|
||||
# He who has ears, let him hear
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus is emphasizing that what he has just said is important and may take some effort to understand and put into practice. The phrase "has ears" here is a metonym for the willingness to understand and obey. See how you translated a similar phrase in [Matthew 11:15](../11/15.md). Alternate translation: "Let the one who is willing to listen, listen" or "The one who is willing to understand, let him understand and obey" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])

"Let the one who is willing to listen, listen" or "The one who is willing to understand, let him understand and obey"
|
||||
|
||||
# He who ... let him
|
||||
|
||||
Since Jesus is speaking directly to his audience, you may prefer to use the second person here. See how you translated a similar phrase in [Matthew 11:15](../11/15.md). Alternate translation: "If you are willing to listen, listen" or "If you are willing to understand, then understand and obey" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-123person]])
|
||||
"If you are willing to listen, listen" or "If you are willing to understand, then understand and obey"
