Notes

Matthew 13:49

The wicked are people who do not obey God's will revealed by Jesus. The righteous are those who obey God's will (see Matthew 5:21–48; 6:1, 33; 7:13–27; 12:33–37; 16:27).

Matthew 13:47–50

This parable is about God's judgment on the last day (Matthew 25:31–46). Then he will forever separate the wicked from the righteous. This warning emphasizes the importance of the two earlier invitations to make a decision to trust Jesus.

Matthew 13:1–53

In the third major speech recorded by Matthew (see study note on Matthew 5:1–7:29), Jesus here recognized the separation of his followers from others (Matthew 13:14, 16). He began to reveal the secrets of the kingdom of heaven privately to them through parables.
