Người sẽ sảy lúa thật sạch, đem trữ lúa vào kho và đốt rơm rác trong lò lửa chẳng hề tắt.”

This verse describes Jesus saying that he will separate the righteous from the wicked, like a farmer separates wheat from chaff. He will gather the good into barns and burn the bad in unquenchable fire.

Giải thích cho trẻ em

Imagine you have a big basket of mixed seeds and wheat kernels. You want to keep only the good wheat for bread. So, you use a fan to blow away all the bad stuff, like dust and chaff. Jesus says he will do something similar: keeping the good people with him and getting rid of those who don't follow his teachings.

Bối cảnh lịch sử

Matthew wrote this gospel around AD 80-90 for a Jewish-Christian audience. The imagery of separating wheat from chaff was well-known in ancient agriculture, making it an effective metaphor for Jesus' message about judgment.
