譯本是參照 AFV (A Faithful Version 希臘文) 2009
1. Now after these things, the Lord appointed seventy others and sent them two by two before His face, into every city and place where He Himself was about to come.
2. And so He said to them, “The harvest is indeed great, but the workmen are few. Therefore, beseech the Lord of the harvest that He may send out workmen into His harvest.
3. Go forth! Behold, I am sending you out as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4. Carry no purse, nor provision bag, nor sandals, and do not salute anyone on the way.
5. But whatever house you may enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’
6. And if indeed a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; but if, on the other hand, it be not so, your peace shall return to you.
7. And lodge in the same house, eating and drinking that which is supplied by them; for the workman is worthy of his hire. Do not move from house to house.
8. And whatever city you may enter, and they receive you, eat the things set before you,
9. And heal the sick in it, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
10. But whatever city you may enter, and they do not receive you, go into the streets and say,
11. ‘Even the dust of your city, which clings to us, we wipe off against you; yet know this, that the kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
12. For I tell you, it shall be more tolerable for Sodom in that day than for that city. (A Faithful Version)
1. 這些事以後,主設立七十個人,兩人一組被差出去,要去那裡是隨他們自己選擇。
2. 被差前對他們說:收的莊稼多,工人少。所以,你們當求這位莊稼的主,好讓他能打發更多收莊稼的人出去。
3. 你們出去時要留心,差你們出去,就像送羊入狼群。
4. 你們不用帶錢,不要帶糧袋,或鞋,路上遇人不去問安。
5. 若是入屋,就要說祝福的說話:願平安到你家!
6. 事實你就是那平安之子,你帶去的平安,就必臨到這家。若然不是,平安就回歸於你。
7. 你若住在那人家,就享用所供給的,工人得工價是應當的,不要作比較。
8. 意思是無論到哪城,若被接待,就吃擺在你們面前的。
9. 當中有軟弱的給醫治,並告訴他:神的大能會臨到他身上。
10. 無論到哪城,若遇不被接待的情況,就到街上宣告:
11. 就連城中的一點微塵,若粘在身上,都會因為你們的緣故擦去。要知道,神的權能將會臨近。
12. 告知他們,當年所多瑪所受的程度,比之今日面對的,相對更為易受。
https://biblicalchronology.com/biblical-meanin$g-of-sodom-and-gomorrah/ 有人若提到了所多瑪和蛾摩拉。理解這兩個名字背後的全部含義可能會讓人望而生畏。本文將幫助你理解它們的聖經意義,以及它們與當今世界的關聯。
路加記述這段,是耶穌看到了他的見證產生果效,有許多人不單跟隨著聽道,也樂意去為耶穌所行作見證。只是為耶穌所行的作見證,原來風險指數高,就像羊入狼群。
又要求不帶日常維生的一切,那是隨遇而安。這安排似乎是在強調作見證人當持的心理準備,靠信心。不要當街去傳,似乎是指當街以問安為由,藉以將信息傳開這種方。而是到一處有心接待的人家,住下,讓這家人款待,他們吃什麼,就吃什麼不要有過多的要求。傾談中發覺有難題,看出當中的軟弱(中文翻為病),似乎是指許多他們面對解決不了的問題,就告訴他們得力的方法:神的大能會臨到他身上 (v.9)。
對陌生人,並不是都會被人接納,特別在大城市,似乎是指被人不客氣趕走的,這個是極端也許很少的情況,若出現這種不禮貌對待,就表示這城的社會風氣極之不良,為那穌作證的,就有指斥的權柄,公然說出這樣的後果極其嚴重。
如果看路加這段描述為耶穌作見證不是件簡單處理的事,主要緣由在於人的態度,有人願意,這類別的人是可以讓他們曉得從耶穌學習得力的要訣,必能從軟弱改變成剛強膽壯。相反會帶來更為嚴重的後果,就是在放縱情慾中敗壞,人性盡失的結果。
在第一節經文,有用七十或者是七十二 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventy_disciples 說是不同抄本。這個數字不影響文本的意思,就不去深入處理。
對提阿非羅如何理解耶穌這樣的吩咐,是由此更明白耶穌在世作見證當中,會遇到的迫害,是無可避免,在那時的處境 (今日安全得多) 是有大兇險成份,這些人都願意去作見證,他的選擇會是怎樣?
