But when the blade [crop] was sprung up, and brought forth fruit [i.e. came to maturity], then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder [the head of a family] came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather [sullego; collect] up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather [sullego; collect] ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather [sunago; assemble] the wheat into my barn. 1. “into my barn” = (The Lord’s barn is derived from trees originating in the Garden of Eden). After the fall of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden, the Lord's barn is a being assembled (sunago) structure formed of worked boards “fitly joined together” (Eph 4:16), derived from fallen trees that have been hewn down and separated from their attachment to this world by the great carpenter Jesus Christ, trees that are now dead to this world (Col 2:20) but eternally alive in Christ, typified in the Bible by Noah’s ark (the archetype) and thereafter typified by the 48 priest-boards of the tabernacle of Moses, and the barn of Jesus. THE INTERPRETATION OF THE PARABLE (“the interpretation of tongues”: 1 Cor 12:10) (Mat 13:36-43) Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples [learners, pupils (students)] came unto him, saying, Declare [expound (explain, interpret)] unto us the parable of the tares of the field. He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world [aion vs. kosmos]; and the reapers are the angels. (Mat 13:40-43) As therefore the tares are gathered [sullego; collected] and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather [sullego; collect] out of his kingdom all things that offend [God], and them which do iniquity [illegality, i.e. violation of law or (gen.) wickedness: transgression of the law, unrighteousness]; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the righteous [innocent, holy] shine forth [be resplendent /// to beam, i.e. radiate brilliancy: give light] as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear [understand], let him hear. 1. He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man 2. The field is the world 3. the good seed are the children of the kingdom 4. the tares are the children of the wicked one 5. The enemy that sowed them is the devil 6. the harvest is the end of the world 7. the reapers are the angels PROPHECY BEING FULFILLED BEFORE THE EYES OF HIS SERVANTS (US) (Mat 13:30) Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather [sullego; collect] ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather [sunago; assemble] the wheat into my barn. 1. Commentary: The following are examples of some of the larger highly visible tares (poisonous weeds that offend God) which are now being collected into bundles in Farmer (John 15:1) God’s field. These tares are being bound into bundles, i.e. groups, associations, organizations, etc., that have a common mind-set and agenda: abortionists, homosexuals, and women’s rights (feminists), i.e. NOW. So where do you think we are in terms of God’s agenda for this world? And, which are you, wheat or tare? Please note in the following two verses the glorious fate of the wheat (Rev 21:7), and the contrasting ignoble fate of eight bundles of tares that shall be burned in “a furnace of fire” unto everlasting damnation (Rev 21:8): 2. (Rev 21:7) [WHEAT] He that overcometh [his own evil lusts springing up from “the root of bitterness” that is resident in all men] shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 3. (Rev 21:8) [TARES] But the fearful [cowardly], and unbelieving, and the abominable [homosexuals, and lesbians], and murderers [abortionists], and whoremongers, and sorcerers [pharmakeus; (a drug, i.e. spell-giving potion); a druggist ("pharmacist") or poisoner, i.e. (by extens.) a magician], and idolaters [servants of false gods: “mammon” Mat 6:24; “the love of money” 1 Tim 6:10; servers of ourselves], and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. a. In 1962 the Supreme Court (another bundle of tares) decided “Engel v. Vitale,” wherein the Supreme Court declared that officially sanctioned prayer in public schools was unconstitutional under the First Amendment, thus the Supreme Court itself became HIGHLY VISIBLE (“then appeared the tares” Mat 13:26) gods with the absolute power to exorcise our Lord God out of the public school system. b. Through the 1973 Supreme Court decision “Roe v. Wade,”abortion became legal and HIGHLY VISIBLE (“then appeared the tares” Mat 13:26). c. In 1992 and thereafter, through legislation initiated by President Bill and Hillary Clinton and their advisors (another prominently visible bundle of tares - politicians), homosexuals and lesbians came “out of the closet,” and thus became HIGHLY VISIBLE (“then appeared the tares” Mat 13:26). PROPHECY VIRTUALLY COMPLETELY FULFULLED (Isa 3:8-12) For Jerusalem [God’s shepherds] is ruined, and Judah [God’s sheep] is fallen: because their tongue [words] and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory. The show of their countenance [appearance] doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom [the principal sign of this prophecy: Rev 11:8], they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them [pastors, town council members, mayors, judges, governors, State and Federal Representatives, State and Federal Senators, Speaker of the House (third in line for the Presidency)]. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. 1. ruined = Heb: to totter or waver (through weakness of the legs, espec. the ankle); by impl. to falter, stumble, faint or fall:--cast down, be decayed, (cause to) fail, (cause, make to) fall (down, -ing), feeble, be (the) ruin (-ed, of), (be) overthrown, (cause to) stumble, X utterly, be weak. 2. fallen = Heb: to fall:--cast (down, self, out), cease, die, divide, (let) fail, (cause to, let, make, ready to) fall (away, down, -en, -ing), fell, fugitive, inferior, be judged, lay (along), (cause to) lie down, light (down), be (X hast) lost, lying, overthrow, overwhelm, perish, (make to) rot, slay, smite out, X surely, thrown down.
