《路加福音》Day19
《活出真憐憫》
21 正當那時,耶穌被聖靈感動就歡樂,說:「父啊,天地的主,我感謝祢!因為祢將這些事向聰明通達人就藏起來,向嬰孩就顯出來。父啊!是的,因為祢的美意本是如此。 22 一切所有的都是我父交付我的;除了父,沒有人知道子是誰;除了子和子所願意指示的,沒有人知道父是誰。」 23 耶穌轉身暗暗地對門徒說:「看見你們所看見的,那眼睛就有福了。 24 我告訴你們,從前有許多先知和君王要看你們所看的,卻沒有看見,要聽你們所聽的,卻沒有聽見。」
25 有一個律法師起來試探耶穌,說:「夫子!我該做甚麼才可以承受永生?」 26 耶穌對他說:「律法上寫的是甚麼?你念的是怎樣呢?」 27 他回答說:「你要盡心、盡性、盡力、盡意愛主-你的神;又要愛鄰舍如同自己。」 28 耶穌說:「你回答的是;你這樣行,就必得永生。」 29 那人要顯明自己有理,就對耶穌說:「誰是我的鄰舍呢?」 30 耶穌回答說:「有一個人從耶路撒冷下耶利哥去,落在強盜手中。他們剝去他的衣裳,把他打個半死,就丟下他走了。 31 偶然有一個祭司從這條路下來,看見他就從那邊過去了。 32 又有一個利未人來到這地方,看見他,也照樣從那邊過去了。 33 惟有一個撒馬利亞人行路來到那裏,看見他就動了慈心, 34 上前用油和酒倒在他的傷處,包裹好了,扶他騎上自己的牲口,帶到店裏去照應他。 35 第二天拿出二錢銀子來,交給店主,說:『你且照應他;此外所費用的,我回來必還你。』 36 你想,這三個人哪一個是落在強盜手中的鄰舍呢?」 37 他說:「是憐憫他的。」耶穌說:「你去照樣行吧。」
38 他們走路的時候,耶穌進了一個村莊。有一個女人,名叫馬大,接祂到自己家裏。 39 她有一個妹子,名叫馬利亞,在耶穌腳前坐著聽祂的道。 40 馬大伺候的事多,心裏忙亂,就進前來,說:「主啊,我的妹子留下我一個人伺候,祢不在意嗎?請吩咐她來幫助我。」 41 耶穌回答說:「馬大!馬大!你為許多的事思慮煩擾, 42 但是不可少的只有一件;馬利亞已經選擇那上好的福分,是不能奪去的。」(路加福音十21-42)
21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do. 22 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.” 23 Then he turned to his disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. 24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”
25 On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 “What is written in the Law?” He replied. “How do you read it?” 27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ ; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” 28 “You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.” 29 But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” 30 In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’ 36 “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” 37 The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”
38 As Jesus and His disciples were on their way, He came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to Him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what He said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to Him and asked, “Lord, don’t You care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” 41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her. (Luke10:21-42)

分享【承受永生,在於活出憐憫】
一位律法師來試探耶穌,問:「我該做什麼才可以承受永生?」耶穌引導他回到律法:「盡心愛神,愛人如己。」但他想證明自己有理,就問:「誰是我的鄰舍?」耶穌講了一個比喻:一個猶太人被打傷,同族的祭司和利未人經過,卻沒有理會;反而一個被視為敵人的撒瑪利亞人動了慈心,停下來照顧他。前者明白律法,卻沒有行出來;後者沒有計算界線,反而活出了憐憫。接著,耶穌去到馬大和馬利亞的家。馬大忙於接待祂,心裡煩亂,甚至對馬利亞產生抱怨不滿。這刻,馬利亞卻坐在主腳前聽道。耶穌指出,馬利亞所選擇的是「上好的福分」。因為她先對準了主。
在這兩個場景中,其實出現了同一個問題:人以為自己明白神,卻只是按著規條或自己的方式行事,反而忽略了天父最看重的體恤和憐憫。
【釋經亮點】
在經文中,耶穌提到有人「看見卻看不見,聽見卻不明白」是怎麼意思?耶穌就在撒瑪利亞人的比喻延續這個主題。那位律法師熟悉律法,卻仍想界定「誰是我的鄰舍」,顯出他對愛的理解仍停留在規條與界線之中。但耶穌卻透過撒瑪利亞人顯明:天父的心,是一種主動的憐憫 —— 不計算對象、不設界線。比喻中出現一個強烈的對比:被人尊重的祭司和利未人,沒有行動;被人敵視的撒瑪利亞人,卻動了慈心。
這正顛覆人的想法:不是身份決定你是否屬神,而是你是否活出憐憫。因此,承受永生,不只是知道誡命,而是活出天父這份憐憫的心。最後,耶穌就說:「你去,照樣行吧。」(十37) 這不只是命令,更是呼召人活出天父的憐憫。
今天,我們也很容易像律法師或馬大:知道很多道理、參與很多事奉、按著規條行事,但心裡卻仍用自己的標準去界定人、甚至對人冷漠、批判和缺乏憐憫。這說明,人可以很熟悉神的誡命,卻仍然活不出天父的心意。要記住,當憐憫出現時,界線就被愛跨越。規條或許可以定義對錯,然而憐憫卻能顯明你是否活出神的教導。
反思:你今天的愛,是按自己的標準,還是出於神的憐憫?你所理解的「愛人如己」,是否已活在你的行動中?
禱告:滿有憐憫的主耶穌,求祢賜下聖靈,不斷提醒我放下自己的界線與標準,學習以祢的憐憫去愛人。讓我不只是停留在知道祢的規條,而是真正活出祢的心意。奉主名求,阿們。
