聖經365恩典之旅

本日經文提要 ( 馬太福音 8:1~9:38)

 

 

 

太 8:1 耶穌下了山，有許多人跟著他。
太 8:2 有一個長大痲瘋的來拜他，說：「主若肯，必能叫我潔淨了。」
太 8:3 耶穌伸手摸他，說：「我肯，你潔淨了吧！」他的大痲瘋立刻就潔淨了。
太 8:4 耶穌對他說：「你切不可告訴人，只要去把身體給祭司察看，獻上摩西所吩咐的禮物，對眾人作證據。」
太 8:5 耶穌進了迦百農，有一個百夫長進前來，求他說：
太 8:6 「主啊，我的僕人害癱瘓病，躺在家裏，甚是疼苦。」
太 8:7 耶穌說：「我去醫治他。」
太 8:8 百夫長回答說：「主啊，你到我舍下，我不敢當；只要你說一句話，我的僕人就必好了。
太 8:9 因為我在人的權下，也有兵在我以下；對這個說：『去！』他就去；對那個說：『來！』他就來；對我的僕人說：『你做這事！』他就去做。」
太 8:10 耶穌聽見就希奇，對跟從的人說：「我實在告訴你們，這麼大的信心，就是在以色列中，我也沒有遇見過。
太 8:11 我又告訴你們，從東從西，將有許多人來，在天國裏與亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各一同坐席；
太 8:12 惟有本國的子民竟被趕到外邊黑暗裏去，在那裏必要哀哭切齒了。」
太 8:13 耶穌對百夫長說：「你回去吧！照你的信心，給你成全了。」那時，他的僕人就好了。
太 8:14 耶穌到了彼得家裏，見彼得的岳母害熱病躺著。
太 8:15 耶穌把她的手一摸，熱就退了；她就起來服事耶穌。
太 8:16 到了晚上，有人帶著許多被鬼附的來到耶穌跟前，他只用一句話就把鬼都趕出去，並且治好了一切有病的人。
太 8:17 這是要應驗先知以賽亞的話，說：他代替我們的軟弱，擔當我們的疾病。
太 8:18 耶穌見許多人圍著他，就吩咐渡到那邊去。
太 8:19 有一個文士來，對他說：「夫子，你無論往哪裏去，我要跟從你。」
太 8:20 耶穌說：「狐狸有洞，天空的飛鳥有窩，人子卻沒有枕頭的地方。」
太 8:21 又有一個門徒對耶穌說：「主啊，容我先回去埋葬我的父親。」
太 8:22 耶穌說：「任憑死人埋葬他們的死人；你跟從我吧！」
太 8:23 耶穌上了船，門徒跟著他。
太 8:24 海裏忽然起了暴風，甚至船被波浪掩蓋；耶穌卻睡著了。
太 8:25 門徒來叫醒了他，說：「主啊，救我們，我們喪命啦！」
太 8:26 耶穌說：「你們這小信的人哪，為甚麼膽怯呢？」於是起來，斥責風和海，風和海就大大地平靜了。
太 8:27 眾人希奇，說：「這是怎樣的人？連風和海也聽從他了！」
太 8:28 耶穌既渡到那邊去，來到加大拉人的地方，就有兩個被鬼附的人從墳塋裏出來迎著他，極其凶猛，甚至沒有人能從那條路上經過。
太 8:29 他們喊著說：「 神的兒子，我們與你有甚麼相干？時候還沒有到，你就上這裏來叫我們受苦嗎？」
太 8:30 離他們很遠，有一大群豬吃食。
太 8:31 鬼就央求耶穌，說：「若把我們趕出去，就打發我們進入豬群吧！」
太 8:32 耶穌說：「去吧！」鬼就出來，進入豬群。全群忽然闖下山崖，投在海裏淹死了。
太 8:33 放豬的就逃跑進城，將這一切事和被鬼附的人所遭遇的都告訴人。
太 8:34 合城的人都出來迎見耶穌，既見了就央求他離開他們的境界。

太 9:1 耶穌上了船，渡過海，來到自己的城裏。
太 9:2 有人用褥子抬著一個癱子到耶穌跟前來。耶穌見他們的信心，就對癱子說：「小子，放心吧！你的罪赦了。」
太 9:3 有幾個文士心裏說：「這個人說僭妄的話了。」
太 9:4 耶穌知道他們的心意，就說：「你們為甚麼心裏懷著惡念呢？
太 9:5 或說『你的罪赦了』，或說『你起來行走』，哪一樣容易呢？
太 9:6 但要叫你們知道，人子在地上有赦罪的權柄」；就對癱子說：「起來！拿你的褥子回家去吧。」
太 9:7 那人就起來，回家去了。
太 9:8 眾人看見都驚奇，就歸榮耀與 神，因為他將這樣的權柄賜給人。
太 9:9 耶穌從那裏往前走，看見一個人名叫馬太，坐在稅關上，就對他說：「你跟從我來。」他就起來跟從了耶穌。
太 9:10 耶穌在屋裏坐席的時候，有好些稅吏和罪人來，與耶穌和他的門徒一同坐席。
太 9:11 法利賽人看見，就對耶穌的門徒說：「你們的先生為甚麼和稅吏並罪人一同吃飯呢？」
太 9:12 耶穌聽見，就說：「康健的人用不著醫生，有病的人才用得著。
太 9:13 經上說：『我喜愛憐恤，不喜愛祭祀。』這句話的意思，你們且去揣摩。我來本不是召義人，乃是召罪人。」
太 9:14 那時，約翰的門徒來見耶穌，說：「我們和法利賽人常常禁食，你的門徒倒不禁食，這是為甚麼呢？」
太 9:15 耶穌對他們說：「新郎和陪伴之人同在的時候，陪伴之人豈能哀慟呢？但日子將到，新郎要離開他們，那時候他們就要禁食。
太 9:16 沒有人把新布補在舊衣服上；因為所補上的反帶壞了那衣服，破的就更大了。
太 9:17 也沒有人把新酒裝在舊皮袋裏；若是這樣，皮袋就裂開，酒漏出來，連皮袋也壞了。惟獨把新酒裝在新皮袋裏，兩樣就都保全了。」
太 9:18 耶穌說這話的時候，有一個管會堂的來拜他，說：「我女兒剛才死了，求你去按手在她身上，她就必活了。」
太 9:19 耶穌便起來跟著他去；門徒也跟了去。
太 9:20 有一個女人，患了十二年的血漏，來到耶穌背後，摸他的衣裳繸子；
太 9:21 因為她心裏說：「我只摸他的衣裳，就必痊癒。」
太 9:22 耶穌轉過來，看見她，就說：「女兒，放心！你的信救了你。」從那時候，女人就痊癒了。
太 9:23 耶穌到了管會堂的家裏，看見有吹手，又有許多人亂嚷，
太 9:24 就說：「退去吧！這閨女不是死了，是睡著了。」他們就嗤笑他。
太 9:25 眾人既被攆出，耶穌就進去，拉著閨女的手，閨女便起來了。
太 9:26 於是這風聲傳遍了那地方。
太 9:27 耶穌從那裏往前走，有兩個瞎子跟著他，喊叫說：「大衛的子孫，可憐我們吧！」
太 9:28 耶穌進了房子，瞎子就來到他跟前。耶穌說：「你們信我能做這事嗎？」他們說：「主啊，我們信。」
太 9:29 耶穌就摸他們的眼睛，說：「照著你們的信給你們成全了吧。」
太 9:30 他們的眼睛就開了。耶穌切切地囑咐他們說：「你們要小心，不可叫人知道。」
太 9:31 他們出去，竟把他的名聲傳遍了那地方。
太 9:32 他們出去的時候，有人將鬼所附的一個啞巴帶到耶穌跟前來。
太 9:33 鬼被趕出去，啞巴就說出話來。眾人都希奇，說：「在以色列中，從來沒有見過這樣的事。」
太 9:34 法利賽人卻說：「他是靠著鬼王趕鬼。」
太 9:35 耶穌走遍各城各鄉，在會堂裏教訓人，宣講天國的福音，又醫治各樣的病症。
太 9:36 他看見許多的人，就憐憫他們；因為他們困苦流離，如同羊沒有牧人一般。
太 9:37 於是對門徒說：「要收的莊稼多，做工的人少。
太 9:38 所以，你們當求莊稼的主打發工人出去收他的莊稼。」

 

 

Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy
8 When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. 2 A man with leprosy[a] came and knelt before him and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

3 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. 4 Then Jesus said to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

The Faith of the Centurion
5 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. 6 “Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home paralyzed, suffering terribly.”

7 Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?”

8 The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. 9 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. 11 I say to you that many will come from the east and the west, and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would.” And his servant was healed at that moment.

Jesus Heals Many
14 When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw Peter’s mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever. 15 He touched her hand and the fever left her, and she got up and began to wait on him.

16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

“He took up our infirmities
    and bore our diseases.”[b]
The Cost of Following Jesus
18 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to cross to the other side of the lake. 19 Then a teacher of the law came to him and said, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”

20 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”

21 Another disciple said to him, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”

22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”

Jesus Calms the Storm
23 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”

26 He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.

27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”

Jesus Restores Two Demon-Possessed Men
28 When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes,[c] two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs met him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way. 29 “What do you want with us, Son of God?” they shouted. “Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?”

30 Some distance from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31 The demons begged Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”

32 He said to them, “Go!” So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the water. 33 Those tending the pigs ran off, went into the town and reported all this, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. 34 Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they pleaded with him to leave their region.
