Jesus Christ » History of » Parable of the tares and other teachings (in galilee)
He put forth another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like unto a man sowing good seed in his field. And while the men slept, an enemy came, and sowed tares in the midst of the wheat, and departed. And when the blades sprang up, and produced fruit, then the tares were also made manifest. read more.
And the servants of the landlord having come to him said, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? whence then hath it tares? And he said to them, A hostile man did this. And the servants say to him, Then do you wish that we, having gone, may gather them? And he says, No; lest gathering the tares together you may at the same time along with them root up the wheat. Let both grow together till the harvest: and at the time of the harvest, I will say to the reapers, First gather the tares, and bind them in bundles, in order to burn them: and gather the wheat into my barn. And He submitted another parable to them, saying; The kingdom of the heavens is like unto a grain of mustard seed, which, a man having taken, sowed in his field; which indeed is the smallest of all seeds; and when it grows up, is the greatest of herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven indeed lodge in its branches. And he spake another parable unto them; The kingdom of the heavens is like unto the leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened. Jesus spoke all of these things to the multitudes in parables; and without a parable He was not speaking to them: in order that the word spoken by Isaiah, the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables: I will make known the things which have been hidden from the foundation. Then leaving the multitudes, He came into the house: and His disciples came to Him saying; Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field. And He responding said, The one sowing the good seed is the Son of man; and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the wicked one, and the enemy sowing them is the devil: and the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are the angels. Then as the tares are gathered and burnt up with fire; so it will be in the end of the age. The Son of man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and those who do iniquity, and will cast them into the furnace of the fire: and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. But let the one having ears, hear. The kingdom of the heavens is like unto a treasure having been hidden in a field; which a man having found, concealed; and from his joy he goes and sells all things so many as he has, and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like unto a man seeking beautiful pearls: and having found one pearl of great price, having gone away he sold all things, so many as he had, and bought it. Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like unto a net cast into the sea, and gathering of every kind; which, when it was filled, drawing up on the shore, and sitting down, they gathered the good into baskets, and threw the bad away. So it will be in the end of the age: the angels will go forth, and will separate the wicked from the midst of the righteous, and will cast them into the furnace of the fire: and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Do you understand all these things? They say to Him, Yea. And He said to them, Therefore every scribe having been discipled into the kingdom of the heavens is like unto a man who is a landlord, who bringeth out of his treasure things both new and old. And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these parables, He departed thence.

And He said, Thus is the kingdom of God, as a man may cast seed on the ground; and he may sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed germinates and grows, as he does not know. The earth spontaneously brings forth fruit; first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear. read more.
And when the fruit may develop, immediately he thrusts in the sickle, because the harvest is at hand. And He said, To what may we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable may we present it? Tis like a grain of mustard seed, which when it may be sown upon the earth, is the smallest of all seeds which are upon the earth, and when it may be sowed, it springs up, and becomes the greatest of herbs, and produces great branches; so that the birds of the heavens are able to lodge under its shadow. And in many such parables He continued to speak the word to them, as they were able to hear. And without a parable He did not speak to them: and He privately expounded all things to His disciples.
