35. that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
36. Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house, and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
37. He answered and said unto them, He that sows the good seed is the Son of man;
38. the field is the world; the good seed are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked;
39. and the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels.
