Best Answer

This is a parable of sorts, metaphor. The following 3 verses are using metaphoric imagery:

Isa 55:8 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord.

Isa 55:9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Isa 55:10 "For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater,

But the next verse declares an understanding to these...

Isa 55:11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

The sower (messiah?) is given seed for the same reason we see seed and sowing in the Apostolic writings. There may be a tie in to the scattered Northern Kingdom, but I will leave that for you to decide.
