体贴神的意思 — 马太福音读经随笔 第17章

马太福音第十七章第22—23节，这是马太福音里第二次出现耶稣告诉门徒关于他将会受难而后第三日复活。第一次是出现在第十六章第21节。门徒们听了后都很忧愁，彼得却把耶稣拉到一旁说万万不可这样做。耶稣马上批评了他，说他没有把心思放在神的意思上。耶稣为什么又对彼得说“撒但退我后边去”呢？因为撒但不希望人得救，这样在末日的时候，所有的人就都是它在硫磺火湖的陪葬品，而耶稣道成肉身来到世界上的工作就是要粉碎撒但的这个诡计。弟兄们，姐妹们，让我们始终牢记我们是耶稣变卖了他的一切用重价买来的：
太17:22 他们还住在加利利的时候、耶稣对门徒说、人子将要被交在人手里．
While they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
太17:23 他们要杀害他、第三日他要复活。门徒就大大的忧愁。
and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up." They were exceedingly sorry.
太16:22 彼得就拉着他、劝他说、主阿、万不可如此、这事必不临到你身上。
Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him, saying, "Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you."
太16:23 耶稣转过来、对彼得说、撒但退我后边去吧．你是绊我脚的．因为你不体贴 神的意思、只体贴人的意思。
But he turned, and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men."
林前7:23 你们是重价买来的．不要作人的奴仆。
You were bought with a price. Don't become bondservants of men.
太13:46 遇见一颗重价的珠子、就去变卖他一切所有的、买了这颗珠子。
who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
