这是什么意思？

In Matthew 13:30, Jesus explains that both wheat and weeds will grow together until the harvest time. At harvest, the workers will separate the bad from the good and burn the weeds while saving the wheat.

儿童解释

Imagine you have a garden with flowers and some annoying weeds growing together. You can't pull out all the weeds because you might hurt your beautiful flowers. So you wait until it's time to clean up, then carefully take away only the bad stuff!

历史背景

Matthew wrote this passage in his Gospel around AD 80-90, aimed at both Jewish and Gentile believers. The parable of the weeds among the wheat reflects a common agricultural practice where mixed fields were not uncommon.
