新约 - 马可福音(Mark)第8章

In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and saith unto them,
I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:
And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.
And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?
And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people.
And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets.
And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.
And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.
Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.
And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.
And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?
Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.
And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.
And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?
And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.
And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.
And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
马可福音第八章   第 8 章 

  可 8:1-3> 也许我们所挂虑的都只是微小的事情,但,你听到祂说“我怜悯”吗? 

  8:1-3 你是否曾感到神要忙于处理很多重要的事情,而看不到你的需要?你看耶稣关心这些人饮食的需要,祂也关心我们每日的需要(参太 6:31-32 )。你是不是认为有一些挂虑是神不会关心的呢?世上没有任何事情是太难而神没有能力处理的;也没有任何需要是太微小而神不去注意的。 

  可 8:1-10> 这个神迹跟五饼二鱼差不多嘛? 

  8:1-10 这个神迹跟给五千人吃饱的神迹( 6:30-44 )是两件事。那次大部分是犹太人,这次耶稣是在低加坡里的外族地区向一群外族人传道。耶稣的工作和信息开始影响大量的外族人。耶稣怜悯非犹太人的记载,进一步肯定了马可福音的写作对象是罗马人。 

  耶稣继续工作 

  可 8:11> 法利赛人硬不信,就强解耶稣的神迹,我对耶稣所做所说的又抱什么态度? 

  8:11 法利赛人试图说耶稣行神迹只是靠邪灵的力量或巧合,他们要求耶稣从天上显神迹,做只有神才可以做到的事。不过,耶稣拒绝了他们的要求。祂知道这样的神迹并不能说服他们,因为他们早已决定不信祂。有时候,人的心灵会硬到一个地步,就是最具说服力的事实和例证也不能改变他们。 

  可 8:15> 法利赛人和希律也有酵? 

  8:15 酵在这段经文中象征邪恶。只要少许的酵,就能使一团面发起,同样的,犹太领袖们刚硬的心也能渗透和毒害整个社会,令人们起来反对耶稣。 

  可 8:15> 是希律的酵,还是撒都该人的酵? 

  8:15 马可提到法利赛人和希律的酵,马太则提到法利赛人和撒都该人的酵。马可福音的写作对象是罗马人,他们认识希律,却可能不知道撒都该这个犹太宗教派别,马可就引用了耶稣说话中令读者较易明白的部分。这儿希律可能指希律党,就是支持希律的人。很多希律党的成员也是撒都该人。 

  可 8:17-18> 忘了上次是怎样难受;忘了祂是怎样扶持我;忘了……在黑暗中,我害怕,祂,还在吗? 

  8:17-18 门徒体验过耶稣所行的这么多神迹,却仍然不清楚耶稣的真正身分。他们曾经见过耶稣用五个饼和二条鱼给五千人吃饱( 6:35-44 ),现在却怀疑祂能否给另一群人吃饱。 

  我们的领悟力有时也同样迟钝。虽然基督过去曾带领我们经过试炼和引诱,但我们不相信祂将来也会带领我们。你是否紧闭心门,不能接受神为你做的事?不要学像门徒,要记住基督曾经为你做过的事,并相信祂会继续帮助你。 

  可 8:25> 我们的眼可以看见,我们的心嘛…… 

  8:25 对于耶稣来说,行这个神迹并不困难,但祂为什么要摸两下才使这瞎子看见呢?祂分步骤来做可能是为了表明治病有时候须循序渐进,不是每次都立刻治愈;又或者是要说明属灵的真理并不是一开始就能了解清楚的。但无论怎样,这个人在耶稣离去前已痊愈了。 

  可 8:27> 凯撒利亚腓立比是一个特别的地方吗? 

  8:27 凯撒利亚腓立比是一个异教城市,敬拜很多希腊神像,其庙宇则供奉远古的潘神。这里正是耶稣要门徒承认祂是神的儿子的好地方。分封王腓力( 6:17 )把凯撒利亚易名为凯撒利亚腓立比,以免与沿海的城市凯撒利亚混淆(参徒 8:40 )。沿海的凯撒利亚是腓力的兄弟希律安提帕所统治区域的首都。 

  可 8:28> 施洗约翰和以利亚是谁? 

  8:28 关于施洗约翰的事迹,请参 1 章 1 至 11 节; 6 章 14 至 29 节。关于以利亚的事迹,请参列王纪上 17 至 20 章;列王纪下 1 至 2 章。 

  可 8:29> 现在耶稣就要问你∶“你说我是谁?”你的答案是…… 

  8:29 耶稣首先问,别人认为祂是谁,接着就问门徒,他们认为祂是谁。只知道别人怎样说耶稣是不够的,你必须知道、明白和接受祂是弥赛亚,必须由对祂好奇进到献身与祂,由欣赏祂进而敬拜祂。 

  可 8:29-31> “人子”这名称有什么意义? 

  8:29-31 人子是耶稣最常用的自称。人子代表天上的形像,在末日时有审判的权柄和能力(参但 7:13 )。这名称显示耶稣就是神所证实的弥赛亚,是神的代表。这段经文中,人子紧紧地与彼得的认信──耶稣是基督──连在一起,确定了人子具有弥赛亚的意思。 

  从此,耶稣简单直接地告诉门徒有关祂受死和复活的事,三次预告祂的死( 8:31 ; 9:31 ; 10:33-34 ),并开始预备他们面对将要发生的事。 

  可 8:30> 你大概也会说“耶稣是基督吧”,但你全然明白这句话吗? 

  8:30 耶稣为什么告诫门徒不要告诉任何人关于祂身分的真相?耶稣知道他们还需要更多的教导,才能明白祂藉着死亡和复活所要成就的事。假如门徒没有得到更多的指导,即使承认耶稣是基督,也只是一知半解,不全然明白。 

  可 8:32-33> 我们常说“愿你的旨意成就”,只是,我真的明白吗?我真的愿意神的旨意成全吗? 

  8:32-33 这一刻彼得并没有考虑神的旨意,只想到自己人性的愿望和感觉。他希望基督作王,而不是受苦的仆人(参赛 53 章)。他准备好领受跟随弥赛亚的荣耀,而不是面对逼迫。 

  基督徒的路不是通往财富与安逸的平坦大道,相反途中常有艰难、逼迫、缺乏和苦难。彼得看不到整幅图画,我们不要重蹈他的覆辙,要注视神从看似不好的事上所带出的好结果,耶稣被钉十字架,但三日后复活就是一个例子。 

  可 8:33> 我是真心为人着想,但有时会不会好心做坏事? 

  8:33 彼得常是门徒的发言人,耶稣挑彼得出来说话,可能是要间接地向所有门徒说话。无知的门徒尝试阻止耶稣被钉十字架,以为可以帮助祂去完成祂在地上的使命。撒但也曾引诱耶稣逃避十字架的道路(参太 4 章)。撒但的动机是邪恶的,门徒的反应则是发自对耶稣的爱和钦佩。不过,门徒要做的是跟随耶稣,而不是引导和保护耶稣。惟有耶稣复活后,他们才完全明白祂去死的原因。 

  可 8:34> “当背十字架跟从主”──对于这句说话,你有何体会? 

  8:34 罗马人处决严重罪犯的方法,就是把他们钉死在十字架上。犯人要背着十字架到行刑的地方,表示对罗马人的屈服。 

  耶稣用背十字架来表明祂对跟从祂的人的要求──完全顺服。祂并不反对快乐,也不要我们受不必要的痛苦,祂只是要我们提起勇气,时刻跟随祂,在工作困难、前路暗淡时仍遵从祂的旨意。 

  可 8:35> 生命中有多少我所热爱的,是我舍不得丧掉的? 

  8:35 我们应该为福音的缘故放下自己的生命,这并不表示我们的生命不重要,而是任何东西甚至生命,也不能跟我们从基督里所得的恩典相比。耶稣希望我们选择去跟从祂,而不是过满足自我的犯罪生活;祂希望我们不再擅作主张,而让祂来掌管生命。这是很合理的,祂是创造主,比我们更清楚什么是真正的生命。祂要求我们顺从祂,不再痛恨自己,不再跟祂争着作自身的主宰。 

  可 8:36-37> 我不贪心,我不是要得到全世界,不过我正努力要得到…… 

  8:36-37 许多人花毕生的时间寻找快乐,但耶稣说,我们若把快乐建立在地位、权力和物质上,最后我们将会一无所有。无论我们在世上拥有什么,都只是暂时的,不能换取我们的灵魂。你为要得到你想要的东西而努力工作,你可能会有一个“快乐”的人生,不过到最后,你仍会发觉人生是空虚、徒劳的。你愿意看重追求神而轻看自私的快乐吗?跟随耶稣,便会知道什么是丰盛的生命,并得到永远的生命。 

  可 8:38> 我今天怎样看待耶稣?我希望祂再来的时候这样看待我吗? 

  8:38 耶稣谈到得失、取舍时,往往把世界的看法颠倒过来。祂在这里给我们选择接受或拒绝祂。现在我们可以拒绝祂,但当祂再来的时候祂也会拒绝我们;现在我们可以接受祂,那时祂也会接纳我们。拒绝基督可能使我们免被别人羞辱,却必为我们带来永恒的责备。──《灵修版圣经注释》
