Exegesis
The demonstrative houtos {οὗτός | hoútos} ‘this one’ is then equated by the copula estin {ἐστιν | estín} with a more explicit description introduced by the article ho {ὁ | ho}, which turns the following participial construction into a characterizing clause: ho ton logon akouon {ὁ τὸν λόγον ἀκούων | ho tón lógon akoúōn} “the one who is hearing the word.”
In context — Matthew 13:20
But the one who was sown on the rocky places, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy .
