Matthew 13:38 in Context — Matthew 13

36 Então Jesus despediu as multidões, e foi para casa. Seus discípulos se aproximaram dele, e disseram: Explica-nos a parábola do joio do campo.

37 E ele lhes respondeu: O que semeia a boa semente é o Filho do homem.

38 E o campo é o mundo; e a boa semente, estes são os filhos do Reino; e o joio são os filhos do maligno.

39 E o inimigo, que o semeou, é o diabo; e a colheita é o fim da era; e os que colhem são os anjos.

40 Portanto, como o joio é colhido e queimado no fogo, assim também será no fim desta era.
