The wheat and the weeds

Matthew 13:24-29  and 36-41
People say it is men that are wheat or weeds.
It is not.  Understanding and wisdom is for the kingdom.
"there is no one righteous, no not one" so what would a wheat be?
But they say who weeps and who gnashes?  People do,
yes but when they do, they will know what it is that led them
to weeping and gnashing.  That is what it means.
"There is where" means the answer to the question "why?" "how"
THERE, the example given.

Wheat is accurate knowledge that leads to everlasting life.
Weeds are lies that lead to death.

Also, it is interesting to know that "teeth" is "tooth"
according to my translation source.  What it might mean
is that many opportunities as a person has teeth (plural)
to cut off error and adopt truth.

Why should you not believe the people are thrown into the furnace?
That would be loving violence and Jehovah 's soul is hating him might be warning the
man of violence. http://biblos.com/psalms/11-5.htm
I learned it JEHOVAH hates a man of violence, but again
I think it does not say that.  (Am I all right-I'm startin to annoy myself)
OK doesn't it say the man of violence is hating his own soul.
Yes, it is correct.  Logic wins again.
That's the side i'm on, just in case you were wondering.
