outer darkness
In Christianity, the outer darkness is a place referred to three times in the Gospel of Matthew (8:12, 22:13, and 25:30) into which a person may be "cast out", and where there is "weeping and gnashing of teeth". Generally, the outer darkness is thought to be hell; however, many Christians associate the outer darkness more generally as a place of separation from God or from the metaphorical "wedding banquet" that Jesus is expected to have upon his Second Coming.
==New Testament==
The phrase first occurs in Jesus' comment concerning the faith of the Centurion of Capernaum:
The use of the term "outer darkness" is in Jesus' Parable of the wedding feast (also known as the parable of the marriage of the king's son). In this parable, a king arranged a wedding for his son, but the normal guests did not come; therefore, the king sent his servants to gather guests from off the street. One of these guests, however, appeared without the proper wedding attire. When the King asked, "How did you come in here without wedding clothes?" the man was speechless (Matt 22:12); therefore, the King said: "Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen." (Matt. 22:13-14, NASB.)
The third use occurs in the Parable of the coins entrusted to servants: ''"'And cast the worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’"'' (Matthew 25:30).
