Jesus used the wheat and the weeds to illustrate how and when he would take out of mankind the entire wheat class of anointed Christians, beginning in 33 C.E.

13:24

‘A man sowed fine seed in his field’

• Sower: Jesus Christ

• Fine seed is sown: Jesus’ disciples are anointed with holy spirit

• The field: The world of mankind

13:25

“While men were sleeping, his enemy came and oversowed weeds”

• Enemy: The Devil

• Men were sleeping: Death of the apostles

13:30

“Let both grow together until the harvest”

• Wheat: Anointed Christians

• Weeds: Imitation Christians

“First collect the weeds . . . ; then gather the wheat”

• Slaves/​reapers: Angels

• Weeds collected: Imitation Christians are separated from anointed Christians

• Gathering into the storehouse: Anointed Christians are gathered into the restored congregation

When the harvest season began, what set true Christians apart from imitation ones?

How do I personally benefit from understanding this illustration?

“Wa gie ọka kevbe irunmwu gba gha waan khian ọ te ya sẹ ẹghẹ emwiorhọ”

• Ọka: Ivbiotu e Kristi na hannọ zẹ

• Irunmwu: Emwa ata iyayi

“Wa ka vbọlọ avbe irunmwu ni rrọọ nẹ . . . ; wa ke ya si ọka ni rrọọ koko”

• Eviẹn/iran ni rhọ emwiorhọ: Avbe Odibosa
