You have added a parentheses because that's where the issue is, isn't it? The end of the age is when the tares will burn....After the judgement of the unjust.
Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age [ the age of the sowing of the seed]. The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

The rapture at the end of the tribulation will translate into eternity (the 5 good virgins) those who believe in Christ. They will reign with Christ. Those alive, unbelieving, and not ready will remain on earth.
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. "Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, "Lord, Lord, open to us!' But he answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.' "Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.

See 1st, 2nd resurrections in Rev 20: 4-5. It emphasizes the nature of the judging going on.
"When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.... And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, "Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:.... Then He will also say to those on the left hand, "Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:.... And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

The rapture/1st Resurrection (Rev 19:14; Rev 20:4) precedes the white throne judgementand coming to life of the rest of the dead.(Rev 20:5) The hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth--those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
