Jesus Christ » History of » Parable of the tares and other teachings (in galilee)
And he delivered them another parable, saying; The kingdom of heaven is like a man sowing good seed in his field; and while the men slept, his enemy came and sowed poisonous darnel in the midst of the wheat, and went away. But when the stalk grew up and bore fruit, then the poisonous darnel appeared. read more.
And the servants of the householder came and said to him, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Whence then has it poisonous darnel? And he said to them, An enemy has done this. And they said to him, Do you wish us to go and take them out? And he said, No; lest in taking out the poisonous darnel, you pull up the wheat with it; let both grow together till the harvest, and at the time of the harvest, I will say to the reapers, Collect first the poisonous darnel, and bind it in bundles to be burnt; but collect the wheat in my storehouse. He delivered them another parable, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field, which is the least of all seeds, but when it is grown is the greatest of plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and lodge on its branches. He spoke another parable to them; The kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three sata [33 quarts] of flour, till the whole was leavened. All these things spoke Jesus to the multitudes in parables; and without a parable spoke he not to them; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will declare things which have been concealed from the foundation of the world. Then leaving the multitudes; he went into the house, and his disciples came to him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the poisonous darnel of the field. And he answered and said to them, He that sows the good seed is the Son of man; the field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; the poisonous darnel are the children of the wicked one; the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the consummation of the world; and the reapers are angels. As, therefore, poisonous darnel is collected and burned with fire, so shall it be at the consummation of the world. The Son of man will send his angels, and they shall collect out of his kingdom all offenses, and all that commit wickedness, and cast them into a furnace of fire; and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous shall shine out like the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that has ears, let him hear. The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hid in a field, which a man found, and concealed, and went away with joy, and sold all that he had and bought that field. Again; the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, who, finding one very costly, went and sold all that he had and bought it. Again; the kingdom of heaven is like a net cast into the sea, and collecting [fish] of every kind, which, when it was full, men drew to the shore, and sifting down put up the good in vessels and cast the bad away. So shall it be at the consummation of the world. The angels shall come forth and separate the evil from the midst of the good, and cast them into the furnace of fire; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Have you understood all these thing? They said to him, Yes, Lord. And he said to them, Every scribe therefore that is instructed in the kingdom of heaven, is like a householder who casts out of his treasury things new and old. And when Jesus had finished these parables he departed thence,
And the servants of the householder came and said to him, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Whence then has it poisonous darnel? And he said to them, An enemy has done this. And they said to him, Do you wish us to go and take them out?

And when Jesus had finished these parables he departed thence,
And he said, So is the kingdom of God as a man casts the seeds into the earth, and sleeps and wakes, night and day, and the seed germinates, and grows he knows not how. The earth produces spontaneously, first the stalk, then the head, then the full wheat in the head. read more.
And when the wheat delivers itself, he immediately sends out the sickle, because the harvest has come. And he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? or with what parable shall I present it? It is like a mustard seed, which when sown in the earth is the least of all seeds on the earth; but when sown, it comes up, and becomes the greatest of all plants, and produces great branches, so that the birds of heaven can dwell under its shade. And with many such parables spoke he the word to them as they could hear; but without a parable spoke he not to them; and, privately, he explained all things to his disciples.
