13:24 The parable about the bad wheat
24 Then Yeshua told them another parable, saying, “The kingdom of the heavens is like a farmer who’s planted good seed in his field. 25 But the while they were all sleeping, his enemy came and spread black-grained ‘wheat’ seeds around his wheat field and left again. 26 Then when the wheat grew and produced grains, the poisonous ‘wheat’ could also be seen. 27 The farmer’s slave came and told him, ‘Master, wasn’t it good wheat seed that you planted? So why is there so much false wheat?’ 28 ‘An enemy must have done this,’ the farmer replied. ‘So should we go and pull out the bad stuff,’ asked the slaves. 29 ‘No,’ said the farmer, ‘because pulling that out might also pull up some of the wheat plants. 30 ‘Let them all grown together, and then at harvest time I can just tell the harvesters to pull the false wheat plants out first and put then in bundles to be incinerated, and then harvest the wheat to go into my barn.’ ”
