Parable of Jesus: The field is the world; the good seed is the people who belong to the Kingdom. Matthew 13:38

The Gospel of Matthew relates that Jesus not only taught in public but also in private; there was spiritual knowledge for the common and simple people, but there was also a knowledge reserved for the disciples. The Kingdom of God was a doctrine that had not been fully revealed with the Sermon on the Mount, and many of Jesus' words and teachings were to be fulfilled even after his death and resurrection. Jesus taught the truth to the extent that people could understand it, and happened that many of Jesus' followers, and even his own disciples, told the divine teacher that his words were difficult to understand. And all this was a reality that Jesus could not avoid and that he had to accept with wisdom and meekness.
And a demonstration of this situation occurred when Jesus, sitting in a boat, probably on the Sea of ​​Galilee, taught the parable of the sower, the parable of the weeds, the parable of the mustard seed, and the parable of the leaven to the people who followed him. These fantastic stories told by Jesus were intended to illuminate and illustrate reason in the fundamental concepts of this spiritual Kingdom, dominion, empire, or government.
But it happened that after teaching, Jesus returned to his home and privately explained to the disciples the meaning of the parable of the weeds. And with these words, he introduced his disciples to the explanation: "The man who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man; the field is the world; the good seed is the people who belong to the Kingdom; the weeds are the people who belong to the Evil One" Matthew 13:37-38.
With this, Jesus made it clear to his disciples that the purpose of the parable of the weeds is to explain that God allows evil for a reason. And just as in a field there is good seed and bad seed, God gives men the freedom to choose, and from this arise good men and bad men. It is logical, then, that there is suffering and injustice in the world, but in the face of this, righteous men should not lose hope because in the end, God, as when the time of harvest comes, will separate those who have done good from those who have done evil.
The parable of the weeds, along with its private explanation, is an expression of the functioning of God's plan, a plan with a development and a culmination, and in the face of this, faith must serve to discern the times.
