  1. Mark 4:10 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

Who came to ask Jesus about the parables?

Mark 4:10 (ESV)

10 And when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.

It is important to notice that it is the Twelve disciples and others around him. Thus, it is not just his disciples who come to him; there are also other people who are interested in what he has to say.
