Matthew 13:40

40 sicut ergo colliguntur zizania et igni conburuntur sic erit in consummatione saeculi

Matthew 13:40 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 13:40

As therefore the tares are gathered
As it is represented in the parable, that in the time of harvest, the tares shall be gathered out from the wheat first; and being bound in bundles, shall be

burnt in the fire,
prepared for that purpose,

so shall it be in the end of this world;
hypocritical and heretical men, and all formal professors, shall be gathered out from among the saints, and the several churches, among whom they have been; and shall be together cast into everlasting burnings, prepared for the devil and his angels, whose children they are.

Matthew 13:40 In-Context

38 ager autem est mundus bonum vero semen hii sunt filii regni zizania autem filii sunt nequam
39 inimicus autem qui seminavit ea est diabolus messis vero consummatio saeculi est messores autem angeli sunt
40 sicut ergo colliguntur zizania et igni conburuntur sic erit in consummatione saeculi
41 mittet Filius hominis angelos suos et colligent de regno eius omnia scandala et eos qui faciunt iniquitatem
42 et mittent eos in caminum ignis ibi erit fletus et stridor dentium
