    Psalm Reading

    Psalm 78:32–38 “In spite of all this, they still sinned; despite his wonders, they did not believe. So he made their days vanish like a breath, and their years in terror. When he killed them, they sought him; they repented and sought God earnestly. They remembered that God was their rock, the Most High God their redeemer. But they flattered him with their mouths; they lied to him with their tongues. Their heart was not steadfast toward him; they were not faithful to his covenant. Yet he, being compassionate, atoned for their iniquity and did not destroy them; he restrained his anger often and did not stir up all his wrath.”

    Reading

    Matthew 13:24–43 ESV
    He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also. And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?’ But he said, ‘No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ” He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.” He told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened.” All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed, he said nothing to them without a parable. This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet: “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world.” Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

    Parable of the Sower

    Parable of the Weeds

    Matthew 13:24–25 ESV
    He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.
    Kingdom of Heaven
    Man sowed good see in his field
    Whilst everyone slept the enemy sowed weeds
    Weed - Bearded Darnel.
    almost indistinguishable from wheat until the ear appears
    contains a fungus which if eaten is poisonous
    Matthew 13:27–28 ESV
    And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, ‘Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ So the servants said to him, ‘Then do you want us to go and gather them?’
    Not until the grain begins to fill out is the difference seen
    The servants are alarmed
    “Master did you not sow good seed in your field?”
    “How does it have weeds?”
    “An enemy has done this”
    “Then do you want us to go and gather them?”
    Matthew 13:29–30 ESV
    But he said, ‘No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ”
    “No, lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them”
    “Let them grow together until the harvest”
    At Harvest time I will tell the reapers
    “Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned”
    “Then, gather the wheat into my barn”

    Mustard Seed and the Leaven

    Matthew 13:31–33 ESV
    He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.” He told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened.”
    Smallest mustard seed, grows into a big tree (10-15 ft tall)
    Leaven in 3 measures of flour, becomes fully leavened
    Isaiah 11:9 ESV
    They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

    Prophecy & Parables

    Matthew 13:34–35 ESV
    All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed, he said nothing to them without a parable. This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet: “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world.”
    Psalmist Asaph (Seer or Prophet) Psalm 78:2 “I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings from of old,”

    Parable of the Weeds Explained

    Matthew 13:36 ESV
    Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.”
    Matthew 13:37 ESV
    He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
    Daniel 7:14 “And to him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.”
    Jesus describs himself as a humble sower
    Constantly sowing the Good Seed
    The Kingdom message of salvation through repentance and faith
    Matthew 13:38 ESV
    The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,
    Field - The World
    Gospel to be proclaimed everywhere
    Good Seed - Sons of the Kingdom
    Weeds - Sons of the evil one
    Matthew 13:39 ESV
    and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
    Enemy - Satan
    Harvest - Judgement Day
    Reapers - Angels
    Revelation 20:10 “and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”
    Matthew 13:40–42 ESV
    Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
    Revelation 20:11–15 ESV
    Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
    Matthew 13:43 ESV
    Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
    the righteous will shine like the sun, in the kingdom of their father
    He who has ears, let him hear.
