The story should not be taken as literally describing what will actually befall the unwatchful and disobedient in the final hour. Understood symbolically, the story suggests that the disobedient will be separated from, or denied, the rewards of the believers. The message reflects Psalm 37:-- For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the LORD,-- They shall inherit the earth. (Ps. 37:9)
(153:6)
