Mt 13:48 | King James | Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away. |
A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
Which, when it was full, they drew to shore--for the separation will not be made till the number of the elect is accomplished. and sat down--expressing the deliberateness with which the judicial separation will at length be made. and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away--literally, "the rotten," but here meaning, "the foul" or "worthless" fish: corresponding to the "tares" of the other parable. |
