meaning of the parable of goats and sheep
Jesus separating people at the Last Judgement, by Fra Angelico, 1432-1435. The Sheep and the Goats or the Judgment of the Nations is a pronouncement of Jesus recorded in chapter 25 of Matthew's Gospel in the New Testament. It is sometimes characterised as a parable, although unlike most parables it does not purport to relate a story of events happening to other characters.
