Matthew 13:24
Douay-Rheims
Another parable he proposed to them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is likened to a man that sowed good seeds in his field.
John Chrysostom
Wherein observe the thoughtfulness and affection of the servants; they hasten to root up the tares, thus shewing their anxiety about the good seed; for this is all to which they look, not that any should be punished, but that that which is sown should not perish. The Lord’s answer follows, And he saith unto them, Nay.
