“The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed
good seed in his field . . .” (Matthew 13:24). The Parable of the
Weeds starts with such promise—a man sowed good seed in his
field, and since the seed was good, the harvest should also be good.
We learn that the man sowing represents Jesus Christ, and the seed
represents His followers in the kingdom. The fact that he sowed
good seed does not surprise us because we know that everything
that God does is good.
