《路加福音》Day16
《榮耀新定義》
21 耶穌切切地囑咐他們,不可將這事告訴人, 22 又說:「人子必須受許多的苦,被長老、祭司長,和文士棄絕,並且被殺,第三日復活。」 23 耶穌又對眾人說:「若有人要跟從我,就當捨己,天天背起他的十字架來跟從我。 24 因為,凡要救自己生命的,必喪掉生命;凡為我喪掉生命的,必救了生命。 25 人若賺得全世界,卻喪了自己,賠上自己,有甚麼益處呢? 26 凡把我和我的道當作可恥的,人子在自己的榮耀裏,並天父與聖天使的榮耀裏降臨的時候,也要把那人當作可恥的。 27 我實在告訴你們,站在這裏的,有人在沒嘗死味以前,必看見神的國。」
28 說了這話以後約有八天,耶穌帶著彼得、約翰、雅各上山去禱告。 29 正禱告的時候,祂的面貌就改變了,衣服潔白放光。 30 忽然有摩西、以利亞兩個人同耶穌說話; 31 他們在榮光裏顯現,談論耶穌去世的事,就是祂在耶路撒冷將要成的事。 32 彼得和他的同伴都打盹,既清醒了,就看見耶穌的榮光,並同祂站著的那兩個人。 33 二人正要和耶穌分離的時候,彼得對耶穌說:「夫子,我們在這裏真好!可以搭三座棚,一座為祢,一座為摩西,一座為以利亞。」他卻不知道所說的是甚麼。 34 說這話的時候,有一朵雲彩來遮蓋他們;他們進入雲彩裏就懼怕。 35 有聲音從雲彩裏出來,說:「這是我的兒子,我所揀選的,你們要聽祂。」 36 聲音住了,只見耶穌一人在那裏。當那些日子,門徒不提所看見的事,一樣也不告訴人。 (路加福音九21-36)
21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone. 22 And He said, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.” 23 Then He said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. 24 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. 25 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? 26 Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when He comes in His glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels. 27 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.” 28 About eight days after Jesus said this, He took Peter, John and James with Him and went up onto a mountain to pray. 29 As He was praying, the appearance of His face changed, and His clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. 30 Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. 31 They spoke about His departure, which He was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem. 32 Peter and his companions were very sleepy, but when they became fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men standing with Him. 33 As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to Him, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what he was saying. 34 While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and covered them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 A voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, whom I have chosen; listen to Him.” 36 When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone. The disciples kept this to themselves and did not tell anyone at that time what they had seen. (Luke 9:21-36)
分享【主的榮耀,是十架的救贖之路】
彼得認出耶穌是基督後,主卻吩咐門徒不要宣揚,並清楚指出人子將要受苦、被棄絕、被殺,第三日復活。這完全顛覆門徒對彌賽亞的期待:他們以為是榮耀與得勝,卻沒想到是十字架的路。
然而,這不單是主的路,也是門徒的路:「若有人要跟從我,就當捨己,天天背起十字架。」在耶穌身上,我們看見榮耀的新定義——不是避開苦難,而是在順服中走向十字架,帶來救贖。
接著記耶穌帶門徒上山,榮光顯現,摩西與以利亞同在,見證祂的身份。天父更宣告:「這是我的愛子⋯⋯你們要聽祂。」這提醒我們,變像的榮耀與十字架的道路是連在一起的。
今天,我們是否仍用自己的期待去理解神?還是願意放下錯誤的想像,單純「聽祂」,走祂所指示的路?
【釋經亮點】
與其他福音書不同,路加特別在登山變像加入了摩西、以利亞和耶穌在山上談論的內容 ——「耶穌去世的事,就是祂在耶路撒冷將要成的事。」(九31) 這裡中文譯本所說的「去世」原文是 exodus,意即「離去」,這詞又用於記載了以色列人離開埃及的故事,即《出埃及記》Exodus。
這個用字非常重要,因為它把耶穌的十字架與舊約的出埃及事件連結起來。正如摩西帶領以色列人離開埃及的奴役,耶穌將透過祂的受苦與死亡,帶領人離開罪與死亡的權勢。十字架不是失敗,而是神救贖計劃的完成,是一場更深層、更終極的「出埃及」。
然而,打盹的彼得雖然親身經歷這榮耀的時刻,卻抓錯了重點。他說:「我們在這裡真好」,想要搭棚留住這個經歷。路加特別補充:「他卻不知道所說的是甚麼。」這句話揭示了門徒看見榮耀,卻不明白榮耀的核心其實是十字架。
這也提醒我們,人很容易停留在屬靈的經歷與感受中,卻忽略了神真正的心意。真正的榮耀,不是只停留在高山中,而是願意下山,走上十字架的救贖道路。
反思:我是否像門徒一樣,片面的理解主的榮耀,卻不願面對十字架,不知主的榮耀與十字架的道路連在一起?
禱告:榮耀的主,感謝祢向我顯明真正的榮耀:順服與捨己。求祢赦免我常常只渴望祝福與高峰經歷,卻逃避十字架的道路。求祢打開我的耳朵,使我願意聽祢的話,也賜我一顆順服的心,讓我在不明白的時候,仍然願意跟隨祢。奉主名求,阿們。
