In Matthew 13:30, the accusative plural feminine form occurs in the instruction to collect the weeds and bind them before burning; the APB renders the clause "bind them into bundles to burn them."
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Matthew 13:30, the APB presents the clause as "bind them into bundles to burn them." This wording confirms the scene's grouping and binding without isolating each English word to the lemma.
