The Parable of the Weeds Interpreted
36
Then he left the crowds [and] came into the house, and his disciples came to him saying, "Explain the parable of the darnel in the field to us."
37
So he answered [and] said, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
38
and the field is the world. And the good seed--these are the sons of the kingdom, but the darnel are the sons of the evil one.
39
And the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
40
Thus just as the darnel is gathered and burned with fire, so it will be at the end of the age.
41
The Son of Man will send out his angels and they will gather out of his kingdom all the causes of sin and those who do lawless deeds,
42
and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!
43
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. The one who has ears, let him hear!
