Tares

[Matt. 13:36] 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.
[In the parable of the Sower, "the seed is the word of God" (Lk. 8:11). But here that word has been received into the heart, and has converted him that received it into a new creature, a "child of the kingdom," according to that saying of James 1:18. "Of His own will begat He us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first-fruits of His creatures." It is worthy of notice that this vast field of the world is here said to be Y’Shua's own - "His field," says the parable. (Ps. 2:8).]
[37] He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
[38] 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 tares are the children of the wicked one - As this sowing could only be "while men slept," no blame seems intended, and certainly none is charged upon "the servants"; it is probably just the dress of the parable.]
[39] The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
[By "tares" is meant, not what in our husbandry is so called, but some noxious plant, probably darnel. "The tares are the children of the wicked one"; and by their being sown "among the wheat" is meant their being deposited within the territory of the visible body of believers. As they resemble the children of the kingdom, so they are produced, it seems, by a similar process of "sowing" - the seeds of evil being scattered and lodging in the soil of those hearts upon which falls the seed of the world. The enemy, after sowing his "tares," "went his way" - his dark work soon done, but taking time to develop its true character. The harvest is the end of the world - the period of Y’Shua's second coming, and of the judicial separation of the righteous and the wicked. Till then, no attempt is to be made to effect such separation. But to stretch this so far as to justify allowing openly scandalous persons to remain in the communion of the believers is to wrest the teaching of this parable to other than its proper design, and go in the teeth of apostolic injunctions (1 Cor. 5). And the reapers are the angels - But whose angels are they? "The Son of man shall send forth His angels" (13:41 compare 1 Peter 3:22), "Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of G-d; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him."]
[40] As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
