Mateo 4

Studie

   

1 Nang magkagayo'y inihatid ng Espiritu Santo si Jesus sa ilang upang siya'y tuksuhin ng diablo.

2 At nang siya'y makapagayunong apat na pung araw at apat na pung gabi, sa wakas ay nagutom siya.

3 At ang manunukso ay dumating at nagsabi sa kaniya, Kung ikaw ang Anak ng Dios, ay ipagutos mo na ang mga batong ito ay maging mga tinapay.

4 Datapuwa't siya'y sumagot, at sinabi, Nasusulat, Hindi sa tinapay lamang mabubuhay ang tao, kundi sa bawa't salitang lumalabas sa bibig ng Dios.

5 Nang magkagayo'y dinala siya ng diablo sa bayang banal; at inilagay siya sa taluktok ng templo,

6 At sa kaniya'y sinabi, Kung ikaw ang Anak ng Dios, ay magpatihulog ka: sapagka't nasusulat, Siya'y magbibilin sa kaniyang mga anghel tungkol sa iyo: at, Aalalayan ka ng kanilang mga kamay, Baka matisod ka ng iyong paa sa isang bato.

7 Sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Nasusulat din naman, Huwag mong tutuksuhin ang Panginoon mong Dios.

8 Muling dinala siya ng diablo sa isang bundok na lubhang mataas, at ipinamalas sa kaniya ang lahat ng mga kaharian sa sanglibutan, at ang kaluwalhatian nila;

9 At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Lahat ng mga bagay na ito ay ibibigay ko sa iyo, kung ikaw ay magpapatirapa at sasambahin mo ako.

10 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Humayo ka, Satanas: sapagka't nasusulat, Sa Panginoon mong Dios sasamba ka, at siya lamang ang iyong paglilingkuran.

11 Nang magkagayo'y iniwan siya ng diablo; at narito, nagsidating ang mga anghel at siya'y pinaglingkuran.

12 Nang marinig nga niya na si Juan ay dinakip, ay umuwi siya sa Galilea;

13 At pagkaiwan sa Nazaret, ay naparoon siya at tumahan sa Capernaum, na nasa tabi ng dagat, sa mga hangganan ng Zabulon at Neftali:

14 Upang maganap ang sinalita sa pamamagitan ng propeta Isaias na nagsasabi,

15 Ang lupa ni Zabulon at ang lupa ni Neftali, Sa gawing dagat, sa dako pa roon ng Jordan, Galilea ng mga Gentil,

16 Ang bayang nalulugmok sa kadiliman, ay Nakakita ng dakilang ilaw, At sa nangalulugmok sa pook at lilim ng kamatayan, ay Lumiwanag sa kanila ang ilaw.

17 Mula noon ay nagpasimulang mangaral si Jesus, at magsabi, Mangagsisi kayo; sapagka't malapit na ang kaharian ng langit.

18 At sa paglalakad niya sa tabi ng dagat ng Galilea; ay nakita niya ang dalawang magkapatid, si Simon na tinatawag na Pedro, at si Andres na kaniyang kapatid, na inihuhulog ang isang lambat sa dagat; sapagka't sila'y mga mamamalakaya.

19 At sinabi niya sa kanila, Magsisunod kayo sa hulihan ko, at gagawin ko kayong mga mamamalakaya ng mga tao.

20 At pagdaka'y iniwan nila ang mga lambat, at nagsisunod sa kaniya.

21 At paglakad sa dako roon ay nakita niya ang dalawa pang magkapatid, si Santiago na anak ni Zebedeo, at ang kaniyang kapatid na si Juan, sa daong na kasama si Zebedeo na kanilang ama, na nagsisipaghayuma ng kanilang mga lambat; at sila'y kaniyang tinawag.

22 At pagdaka'y iniwan nila ang daong at ang kanilang ama, at nagsisunod sa kaniya.

23 At nilibot ni Jesus ang buong Galilea, na nagtuturo sa mga sinagoga nila, at ipinangangaral ang evangelio ng kaharian, at nagpapagaling ng lahat ng sarisaring sakit at ng lahat ng karamdaman na nasa mga tao.

24 At lumaganap ang pagkabantog niya sa buong Siria: at kanilang dinadala sa kaniya ang lahat ng mga may karamdaman, at ang mga pinipighati ng sarisaring sakit at pahirap, at ang mga inaalihan ng mga demonio, at ang mga himatayin, at ang mga lumpo: at sila'y pinagagaling niya.

25 At sinundan siya ng lubhang karamihang tao mula sa Galilea at Decapolis at Jerusalem at Judea at mula sa dakong ibayo ng Jordan.

1444. 'And the Canaanite was at that time in the land' means the hereditary evil from the mother, in His external man. This becomes clear from what has been stated already about the Lord's heredity; for He was born as any other is born and from the mother acquired evils which He fought against and overcame. It is well known that the Lord underwent and endured very severe temptations - which will in the Lord's Divine mercy be described further on - temptations so great in fact that He fought by Himself and from His own power against the whole of hell. Nobody can undergo temptation unless he has evil clinging to him. The person who has no evil cannot experience the smallest temptation, for it is evil that spirits from hell stir up.

[2] With the Lord no evil of His own doing or that was His own was present, as there is with all human beings, only hereditary evil from the mother, which is here called 'the Canaanite at that time in the land'. For this matter see what has been stated above in verse 1, in 1414, to the effect that people are born with two heredities in them, the first from the father, the second from the mother. What comes from the father remains for ever, but what comes from the mother is dispelled by the Lord when the person is being regenerated. The Lord's heredity from His Father however was Divine, while the heredity from the mother was the hereditary evil referred to here, through which He underwent temptations. Regarding His temptations, see Mark 1:12-13; Matthew 4:1; Luke 4:1-2. But, as has been stated, He had no evil of His own doing or which was His own, nor did He have any hereditary evil from the mother after He had overcome hell by means of temptations. It is for this reason that the expression at that time occurs here, that is to say, 'the Canaanite was at that time in the land'.

[3] The Canaanites were people who dwelt by the sea and by the bank of the Jordan, as is clear in Moses,

The spies returned and said, We came into the land to which you sent us, and it is indeed flowing with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. Nevertheless the people dwelling in the land are powerful and the cities are very strongly fortified, and also we saw the descendants of Anak there. The Amalekite dwells in the south, and the Hittite, Jebusite, and Amorite dwell in the mountains, and the Canaanite dwells by the sea and by the bank of the Jordan. Numbers 13:27-29.

'The Canaanite dwelt by the sea and by the bank of the Jordan' meant evil consequently residing with the external man, such as that acquired by heredity from the mother, for the sea and the Jordan were boundaries.

[4] That this kind of evil is meant by 'the Canaanite' is clear also in Zechariah,

And there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of Jehovah Zebaoth on that day. Zechariah 14:21.

This refers to the Lord's kingdom. It means that the Lord overcame the evil meant by 'the Canaanite' and drove it out of His kingdom. Evils of every kind are meant by the idolatrous nations in the land of Canaan, among which were the Canaanites, Genesis 15:19-21; Exodus 3:8, 17; 23:23, 28; 33:2; 34:11; Deuteronomy 7:1; 20:17; Joshua 3:10; 24:11; Judges 3:5. Which evil is meant by each nation specifically will in the Lord's Divine mercy be stated elsewhere.
