I live right by some wheat fields - the parable of the tares was made clear to me by observing the fields.
Messiah is teaching us about the righteous and the wicked, and how the 2 will be separated at the end of the age.
You wait until it’s time to harvest the wheat to separate the weeds and everything else that doesn’t belong.
If you look at a wheat field(the world), you’ll see 2 categories of things growing: what belongs(wheat - God’s children)) and what doesn’t belong(weeds - the wicked)
They grow right alongside each other until the farmer(Messiah) sends his workers(angels) to harvest them. Then he separates them, and discards the weeds(the wicked) and burns them and keeps the wheat(the righteous).
If the farmer went and tried to remove the weeds, it would mess the wheat up. That’s why he waits until harvest, and separates them.
The wheat and tares parable is in line with the parable of the fishing net, gathering all together and then separating them - Matthew 13:47-50
