Mateus 13:36 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 13:36

Then Jesus sent the multitude away
That his disciples might have the opportunity of conversing with him alone, about the sense of the parables he had delivered; and that he might instruct them by some others hereafter mentioned.

And went into the house:
left the ship in which he had been preaching to the multitude, came on shore, and returned to the house he came out of, ( Matthew 13:1 )

and his disciples came to him;
and being alone, make an humble request to him,

saying, declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field:
by which they mean, not a rehearsal of it, but an explication of the sense and meaning of it: they ask nothing about the parables of the mustard seed and leaven, either because they better understood them; or because there were some things very remarkable and striking in this, which made them very desirous to be particularly informed of the several parts of it, and their meaning.

Mateus 13:36 In-Context

34 Todas estas coisas falou Jesus �s multidões por parábolas, e sem parábolas nada lhes falava;

35 para que se cumprisse o que foi dito pelo profeta: Abrirei em parábolas a minha boca; publicarei coisas ocultas desde a fundação do mundo.

36 Então Jesus, deixando as multidões, entrou em casa. E chegaram-se a ele os seus discípulos, dizendo: Explica-nos a parábola do joio do campo.

37 E ele, respondendo, disse: O que semeia a boa semente é o Filho do homem;

38 o campo é o mundo; a boa semente são os filhos do reino; o o joio são os filhos do maligno;
