AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 8:12 while the sons and heirs of the kingdom [the descendants of Abraham who will not recognize Me as Messiah] will be thrown out into the outer darkness; in that place [which is farthest removed from the kingdom] there will be weeping [in sorrow and pain] and grinding of teeth [in distress and anger]." [Ps 107:2, 3; Is 49:12; 59:19; Mal 1:11] |
Bible Question: I was reading Matt. 8, and came across vs. 12. who are the "subjects of the kingdom" and why will they be thrown out? |
Bible Answer: But many Israelites – those for whom the Kingdom was prepared – will be cast into outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 8:12 Holy Bible, The New Living Translation Good News Translation - Second Edition But those who should be in the Kingdom will be thrown out into the darkness, where they will cry and gnash their teeth. THE MESSAGE: The Bible in Contemporary Language Then those who grew up "in the faith' but had no faith will find themselves out in the cold, outsiders to grace and wondering what happened. [I consider the THE MESSAGE version of this verse to be fitting commentary on -- practical application of -- this particular passage.] Grace to you, Kalos |
