'Weeds' in the Bible

But while people were sleeping, his enemy came, sowed weeds among the wheat, and left.

When the plants sprouted and produced grain, then the weeds also appeared.

The landowner’s slaves came to him and said, ‘Master, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Then where did the weeds come from?’

“‘No,’ he said. ‘When you gather up the weeds, you might also uproot the wheat with them.

Let both grow together until the harvest. At harvest time I’ll tell the reapers: Gather the weeds first and tie them in bundles to burn them, but store the wheat in my barn.’”

Then He dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples approached Him and said, “Explain the parable of the weeds in the field to us.”

the field is the world; and the good seed—these are the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,

Therefore, just as the weeds are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age.
