This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Mat 13:24-30, Mat 13:36-43, Mat 13:47-50. Second and Seventh Parables or First Pair:
The Wheat and the Tares, and The Good and Bad Fish.
The subject of both these parables - which teach the same truth, with a slight diversity of aspect - is:
The mixed character of the kingdom in its present state, and the final absolute separation of the two classes.
The Tares and the Wheat (Mat 13:24-30, Mat 13:36-43).
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field - Happily for us, these exquisite parables are, with like charming simplicity and clearness, expounded to us by the Great Preacher Himself. Accordingly, we pass to: see on Mat 13:36-38.
