APAD: Separate the sheep from the goats

Meaning: Sort the good from the bad

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

From Matthew 25:31-33

    

    31 When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he

       will sit on his glorious throne.

    32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the

       people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

    33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

    

Why goats are bad and sheep good?

Has not a goat ears?

Has not a goat eyes?

Does not a goat drink water and eat grass just as a sheep does?

 

Need help from a Bible expert or maybe ChatGPT.
