Matthew 13:42-43

Context
13:42 They will throw them into the fiery furnace, 1  where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 13:43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. 2  The one who has ears had better listen! 3 

Matthew 13:49

Context
13:49 It will be this way at the end of the age. Angels will come and separate the evil from the righteous

1 sn A quotation from Dan 3:6.

2 sn An allusion to Dan 12:3.

3 tn The translation “had better listen!” captures the force of the third person imperative more effectively than the traditional “let him hear,” which sounds more like a permissive than an imperative to the modern English reader. This was Jesus’ common expression to listen and heed carefully (cf. Matt 11:15, 13:9; Mark 4:9, 23; Luke 8:8, 14:35).
