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。

79. That to commit adultery in the spiritual sense means to adulterate the Word’s goods and falsify its truths is clear from the following:

Babylon...has made all nations drink of the wine...of her licentiousness. (Revelation 14:8)

(The angel said, ) “...I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed whoredom....” (Revelation 17:1-2)

(Babylon made) all nations (drink) of the wine of the wrath of her licentiousness, and the kings of the earth have committed whoredom with her.... (Revelation 18:3)

(God) has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her licentiousness.... (Revelation 19:2) Licentiousness is attributed to Babylon because Babylon means people who arrogate the Lord’s Divine power to themselves and profane the Word by adulterating and falsifying it. Consequently Babylon is also called “the mother of the whoredoms and abominations of the earth” (Revelation 17:5).

[2] Licentiousness also has the same symbolic meaning in the Prophets, as in Jeremiah:

In the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a shocking obstinacy in committing adultery and walking in lies. (Jeremiah 23:14) In Ezekiel:

...two women, the daughters of one mother, ...committed harlotry in Egypt; they committed harlotry in their youth.... (One) played the harlot under Me, and she lusted for her lovers, the neighboring Assyrians.... She committed her harlotries with them.... (Yet) she has never given up her harlotries in Egypt....

(The other) corrupted her love more than she, and her harlotries more than her sister’s harlotries.... She increased her harlotries..., she loved (Chaldeans).... Then the Babylonians came to her, into the bed of love, and they defiled her with their licentiousness. (Ezekiel 23:2-17) The reference here is to the Israelite and Jewish churches, which in this passage are the daughters of one mother. Their harlotries mean adulterations and falsifications of the Word. And because Egypt in the Word symbolizes knowledge, Assyria reasoning, Chaldea the profanation of truth, and Babylon the profanation of good, therefore we are told that they committed harlotry with them.

[3] The same is said in Ezekiel of Jerusalem, which symbolizes the church in respect to doctrine:

(O Jerusalem, ) you trusted in your beauty, and played the harlot because of your fame, so that you poured out your harlotries on everyone passing by.... You committed harlotry with the Egyptians, your neighbors, enormously fat, and increased your harlotry.... You played the harlot with the Assyrians.... When you were not satisfied by those with whom you played the harlot, you increased your harlotry as far as the land of the Chaldean trader.... Adulterous woman, who takes strangers instead of her husband! All men make payment to their harlots, but you made your payments to all your lovers, ...to come to you from all around for your harlotries.... Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah! (Ezekiel 16:15, 26, 28-29, 32-33, 35ff.) That Jerusalem means the church may be seen in The Doctrine Regarding the Lord 62-63.

References to licentiousness have the same symbolic meaning in Isaiah 23:17-18, 57:3; in Jeremiah 3:2, 6, 8-9, 5:1, 7, 13:27, 29:23; in Micah 1:7; in Nahum 3:3-4; in Hosea 4:2, 10-11; also in Leviticus 20:5; Numbers 14:33, 15:39; and elsewhere.

For this reason, too, the Lord called the Jewish nation “an adulterous generation” (Matthew 12:39, 16:4, Mark 8:38).
