rsv@Matthew:13:48 @ when it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into vessels but threw away the bad.
rsv@Matthew:13:49 @ So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous,
rsv@Matthew:13:50 @ and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.
