開心竅明白聖經 — 路加福音讀經隨筆 第24章

路加福音第二十四章第13—44節，耶穌複活後顯現給門徒們看，並從摩西和眾先知起凡經上所指著耶穌自己的話，都給他們講解明白了。耶穌開了他們的心竅，使他們能明白聖經。摩西的律法，先知的書和詩篇上，很多記載都是關於耶穌的，因此基督受害進入他的榮耀是應當的。可見，先知所說的這一切話都在舊約聖經裏，隻是當時門徒們的心信得太遲鈍了。在當今時代，讀舊約聖經不應再存在這樣的問題，因為新約已被傳揚兩千來年，舊約對耶穌的所有預言應被熟知。門徒們要時刻儆醒，如果讀舊約聖經，我們應該在很多地方看到耶穌，開心竅明白那些經文，這樣就會更多的體會主在十字架上對我們長闊高深的愛和他為什麽死裏複活！
路24:13 正當那日、門徒中有兩個人往一個村子去、這村子名叫以馬忤斯、離耶路撒冷約有二十五裏。
Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.
路24:14 他們彼此談論所遇見的這一切事。
They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.
路24:15 正談論相問的時候、耶穌親自就近他們、和他們同行。
It happened, while they talked and questioned together, that Jesus himself came near, and went with them.
路24:16 隻是他們的眼睛迷糊了、不認識他。
But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.
路24:17 耶穌對他們說、你們走路彼此談論的是甚麽事呢．他們就站住、臉上帶著愁容。
He said to them, "What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?"
路24:18 二人中有一個名叫革流巴的、回答說、你在耶路撒冷作客、還不知道這幾天在那裏所出的事麽。
One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, "Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn't know the things which have happened there in these days?"
路24:19 耶穌說、甚麽事呢．他們說、就是拿撒勒人耶穌的事．他是個先知、在 神和眾百姓麵前、說話行事都有大能。
He said to them, "What things?" They said to him, "The things concerning Jesus, the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;
路24:20 祭司長和我們的官府、竟把他解去定了死罪、釘在十字架上。
and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
路24:21 但我們素來所盼望要贖以色列民的就是他。不但如此、而且這事成就、現在已經三天了。
But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.
路24:22 再者、我們中間有幾個婦女使我們驚奇、他們清早到了墳墓那裏．
Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;
路24:23 不見他的身體、就回來告訴我們說、看見了天使顯現、說他活了。
and when they didn't find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.
路24:24 又有我們的幾個人、往墳墓那裏去、所遇見的、正如婦女們所說的、隻是沒有看見他。
Some of us went to the tomb, and found it just like the women had said, but they didn't see him."
路24:25 耶穌對他們說、無知的人哪．先知所說的一切話、你們的心、信得太遲鈍了。
He said to them, "Foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
路24:26 基督這樣受害、又進入他的榮耀、豈不是應當的麽。
Didn't the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?"
路24:27 於是從摩西和眾先知起、凡經上所指著自己的話、都給他們講解明白了。
Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
路24:44 耶穌對他們說、這就是我從前與你們同在之時、所告訴你們的話、說、摩西的律法、先知的書、和詩篇上所記的、凡指著我的話、都必須應驗。
He said to them, "This is what I told you, while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me must be fulfilled."
路24:45 於是耶穌開他們的心竅、使他們能明白聖經．
Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.
