Traerán a todos delante de él. Entonces él separará a los unos de los otros, así como un pastor separa a las ovejas de los cabritos.

¿Qué significa esto?

This verse describes how Jesus will separate all nations on Judgment Day, like a shepherd separates sheep from goats. He's the one speaking, emphasizing the ultimate division between those who follow him and those who don't.

Explicado para niños

Imagine you're at a big party where everyone is sorted into two groups: ones who share their toys and help others (like good friends) and those who don’t. Jesus will do something similar when he comes back, but with all the people in the world!
