马太福音 12

Studie

   

1 那时,耶稣在安息日从麦地经过。他的门徒饿了,就掐起麦穗来吃。

2 法利赛人看见,就对耶稣:看哪,你的门徒作安息日不可作的事了!

3 耶稣对他们:经上记着大卫和跟从他的人饥饿之时所作的事,你们没有念过麽?

4 他怎麽进了神的殿,吃了陈设饼,这饼不是他和跟从他的人可以吃得,惟独祭司才可以吃。

5 再者,律法上所记的,当安息日,祭司在殿里犯了安息日还是没有罪,你们没有念过麽?

6 但我告诉你们,在这里有一人比殿更大。

7 我喜爱怜恤,不喜爱祭祀。你们若明白这话的意思,就不将无罪的当作有罪的了。

8 因为人子是安息日的主。

9 耶稣离开那地方,进了一个会堂。

10 那里有一个人枯乾了一只手。有人耶稣说:安息日治病可以不可以?意思是要控告他。

11 耶稣:你们中间谁有一只羊,当安息日掉在坑里,不把他抓住,拉上来呢?

12 人比羊何等贵重呢!所以,在安息日作善事是可以的。

13 於是那人伸出手来!他把手一伸,手就复了原,和那只手一样。

14 法利赛人出去,商议怎样可以除灭耶稣。

15 耶稣知道了,就离开那里,有许多人跟着他。他把其中有病的人都治好了;

16 又嘱咐他们,不要给他传名。

17 这是要应验先知以赛亚的话,

18 看哪!我的仆人,我所拣选,所亲爱,心里所喜悦的,我要将我的灵赐给他;他必将公理传给外邦。

19 他不争竞,不喧嚷;街上也没有人见他的声音。

20 压伤的芦苇,他不折断;将残的灯火,他不吹灭;等他施行公理,叫公理得胜。

21 外邦人都要仰望他的名。

22 当下,有人将一个被鬼附着、又瞎又的人带到耶稣那里,耶稣就医治他,甚至那吧又能说话,又能看见。

23 众人都惊奇,:这不是大卫的子孙麽?

24 法利赛人见,就:这个人赶鬼,无非是靠着鬼王别西卜阿。

25 耶稣知道他们的意念,就对他们:凡一国自相纷争,就成为荒场;一城一家自相纷争,必站立不住;

26 撒但赶逐撒但,就是自相纷争,他的国怎能站得住呢?

27 我若靠着别西卜赶鬼,你们的子弟赶鬼又靠着谁呢?这样,他们就要断定你们的是非。

28 我若靠着神的灵赶,这就是神的国临到你们.了。

29 人怎能进壮士家里,抢夺他的家具呢?除非先捆住那壮士,才可以抢夺他的家财。

30 不与我相合的,就是敌我的;不同我收聚的,就是分散的。

31 所以我告诉你们:人一切的罪和亵渎的话都可得赦免,惟独亵渎圣灵,总不得赦免。

32 说话干犯人子的,还可得赦免;惟独说话干犯圣灵的,今世来世总不得赦免。

33 你们或以为树好,果子也好;树坏,果子也坏;因为看果子就可以知道树。

34 毒蛇的种类!你们既是恶人,怎能出好话来呢?因为心里所充满的,口里就出来。

35 善人从他心里所存的善就发出善来;恶人从他心里所存的恶就发出恶来。

36 我又告诉你们:凡人所的闲话,当审判的日子,必要句句供出来。

37 因为要凭你的话定你为义,也要凭你的话定你有罪。

38 当时,有几个文士和法利赛人对耶稣:夫子,我们愿意你显个神迹给我们看。

39 耶稣回答:一个邪恶淫乱的世代求看神迹,除了先知约拿的神迹以外,再没有神迹给他们看。

40 约拿夜在大鱼肚腹中,人子也要这样夜在地里头。

41 当审判的时候,尼尼微人要起来定这世代的罪,因为尼尼微人听了约拿所传的就悔改了。看哪,在这里有一人比约拿更大!

42 当审判的时候,南方的女王要起来定这世代的罪,因为他从地极而,要所罗门的智慧话。看哪!在这里有一人比所罗门更大。

43 离了人身,就在无水之地过来过去,寻求安歇之处,却寻不着。

44 於是:我要回到我所出的屋里去。到了,就看见里面空旷,打扫乾净,修饰好了,

45 便去另带了七个比自己更恶的来,都进去住在那里。那人末後的景况比先前更不好了。这邪恶的世代也要如此。

46 耶稣还对众人说话的时候,不料他母亲和他弟兄站在外边,要与他说话

47 有人告诉他:看哪,你母亲和你弟兄站在外边,要与你说话

48 他却回答那人:谁是我的母亲?谁是我的弟兄?

49 就伸手指着门徒,:看哪,我的母亲,我的弟兄。

50 凡遵行我父旨意的人,就是我的弟兄姐妹和母亲了。

Apocalypse Explained # 1160

/ 1232  
  

1160. And thou shalt find them no more, signifies that they are destroyed forever. This is evident from the signification of "not finding them" (that is, things fat and splendid, which signify things good and thus satisfying and things true and thus grand), as being that they have been destroyed forever, for things found no more are destroyed forever.

(Continuation)

[2] One kind of profanation described above is meant by these words in Matthew:

When the unclean spirit goeth out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest and finding it not. Then he saith, I will return to the house whence I went forth. When he cometh he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then he goeth away, and taketh to himself seven other spirits worse than himself, and entering in they dwell there; and the latter things of that man become worse than the first (Matthew 12:43-45).

This describes the conversion of a man by the departure of the unclean spirit from him; and his return to evils and the consequent profanation is described by the unclean spirit returning with seven spirits worse than himself.

[3] Likewise by these words in John:

Jesus said to him who was healed at the pool of Bethesda, Behold thou art made whole, sin no more, lest a worse thing befall thee (John 5:14).

Also by these words in the same:

He hath blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes and understand with their heart, and should convert themselves and I should heal them (John 12:40).

"Lest they should convert themselves and be healed" signifies lest they should become profane. Thus would it have been with the Jews (Matthew 12:45); and this is why they were forbidden to eat fat and blood (Leviticus 3:17; 7:23, 25), for this signified their profanation of what is holy in consequence of their being such. Moreover, the Lord by His Divine providence guards with the greatest care against this kind of profanation; and lest this exist, He separates the holy things with man from those that are not holy, and stores up the holy things in the interiors of his mind, and raises them up to Himself; while the things not holy He stores up in the exteriors, and turns them to the world. Thus holy things can be separated from the unholy, and thus man can be saved. But this cannot be done when goods and evils are mixed together. That those who continue in faith and love even unto death will have the crown of life, the Lord teaches in Revelation (Revelation 2:10, 26).
