{The field is the world} (ho de agros estin ho kosmos).
The article with both "field" and "world" in Greek means that
subject and predicate are coextensive and so interchangeable. It
is extremely important to understand that both the good seed and
the darnel (tares) are sown in the world, not in the Kingdom, not
in the church. The separation comes at the consummation of the
age (sunteleia ai(936e)os,  39 ), the harvest time. They all grow
together in the field (the world).
