Harvest » The day of the lord’s harvest
Proclaim this among the nations! Prepare for war! Stir up the mighty men. Let all the men of war draw near let them come up. Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears! Let the weak say, I am strong. Hurry and come all you nations round about. Gather yourselves there and cause your mighty ones to come down, O Jehovah. read more.
Let the nations be aroused and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat (Jehovah's Judgment)! I will sit there to judge all the nations round about. Thrust in the sickle for the harvest is ripe! Come and tread for the winepress is full and the vats overflow. Their wickedness is great. Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! The day of Jehovah is near in the valley of decision. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars diminish their shining. Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem. The heavens and the earth will shake: but Jehovah will be a refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.

The ax is ready to cut down the trees at the roots. Every tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. I baptize you with water because of your repentance.

He told another illustration, saying: The kingdom of heaven is like a man that sowed good seed in his field. While he slept, his enemy came and sowed weeds with the wheat, and went away. When the blade sprouted and brought forth fruit, it looked like wheat. read more.
The servants of the householder said to him: 'Sir, did you sow good seed in your field? Why does it have weeds mixed in with the good wheat?' He replied: 'An enemy did this.' The servants offered to remove the weeds. He said: 'No, you might uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. In the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather weeds first, and bind them in bundles to burn them. Then gather the wheat into my barn.' In another illustration Jesus said: The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man sowed in his field. Mustard seed is the smallest of all seeds. Yet when it grows it becomes as large as a tree. In fact the birds of heaven lodge in the branches. He offered another illustration: The kingdom of heaven is similar to leaven. A woman hid leaven in three measures of meal until it was all leavened. Jesus spoke with illustrations to the crowds. He did not speak anything without using illustrations. That which was spoken through the prophet was fulfilled, saying: I will open my mouth in illustrations. I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world. Then he left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples gathered near him. They said: Explain to us the illustration of the weeds in the field. Jesus said: He that sows the good seed is the Son of man. The field is the world (the society of mankind). The good seed are the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one. The enemy that sowed them is the Devil. The harvest is the end of the age. The reapers are angels. The weeds are gathered up and burned (destroyed) with fire. It will be this way at the end of the age. The Son of man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all who stumble others and commit lawlessness. The angels will cast them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. The righteous will shine as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that has ears let him hear.

Another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud: Thrust in your sickle, and reap! The time has come for you to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. He who sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. read more.
And yet another angel came out from the altar. He had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle. He said: Thrust in your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe. The angel thrust his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the anger of God. The winepress was trampled outside the city. Blood came out of the winepress as high up as the horse bridles for a distance of one hundred and eighty miles.
