奴仆救主为著祂救赎服事豫备（九）

The Preparation of the Slave-Savior for His Redemptive Service (9
1读经：马可福音十四章一至十一节。在马可十三章一节至十四章四十二节，主耶稣为著祂的受死豫备门徒。祂在十三章一至三十七节藉著告诉他们要来的事，而豫备他们。然后，祂在十四章一至十一节藉著享受他们的爱，而豫备他们；那时，祂的反对者阴谋杀害祂，有个门徒图谋出卖祂。主在十四章十二至二十六节，设立祂的晚餐，藉此叫他们记念祂；至终，祂藉著警告他们会绊跌，并嘱咐他们要儆醒祷告，而豫备他们。（27～42。）在本篇信息，
1Scripture Reading: Mark 14:1-11 In 13:1—14:42 the Lord Jesus is preparing the disciples for His death. In 13:1-37 He prepares them by telling them the things to come. Then in 14:1- 11 He prepares them by enjoying their love, while His opposers conspire to kill Him, and one of His disciples plots to betray Him. In 14:12-26 the Lord prepares the disciples by instituting His supper that they may remember Him and finally by warning them of their stumbling and charging them to watch and pray (14:27-42). In this message we shall consider the preparation carried out in 14:1-11
2我们要交通十四章一至十一节的豫备。
2
3在十四章一至十一节，有三件事摆在一起：反对者阴谋杀害奴仆救主，主享受跟从祂之人的爱戴，以及犹大图谋出卖祂。当『祭司长和经学家，设法怎样用诡计拿住耶稣，把祂杀了』，（1，）主的跟从者却向祂表达他们的爱。与此同时，『十二个门徒中，有一个加略人犹大，出去见祭司长，要把耶稣交给他们。』（10。）
3In 14:1-11 three matters are merged: the opposers’ conspiracy to kill the Slave-Savior, the Lord’s enjoyment of His followers’ love, and Judas’ plot to betray Him. While “the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to seize Him by craftiness and kill Him” (v. 1), the Lord’s followers were showing their love for Him. Simultaneously, Judas Iscariot, “one of the twelve, went off to the chief priests that he might deliver Him up to them” (v. 10
基督的豫表
A TYPE OF CHRIST
4马可十四章一节说，『过两天是逾越节和除酵节。』虽然祭司长和经学家想要杀害主耶稣，只是他们说，『在节期中不可，恐怕百姓生乱。』（2。）最终，在神的主宰之下，他们果然在这节期（太二七15）杀了主耶稣，使豫表得著应验。逾越节是基督的一个豫表。（林前五7。）基督是神的羔羊，使神能越过我们这些罪人，如出埃及十二章的豫表所描绘的。因此，基督这逾越节的羊羔，必须在逾越节当天被杀，使豫表得著应验。按豫表，逾越节的羊羔必须在逾越节前四天，受察验是否完全。（出十二3～6。）照样，基督在钉十字架之先，在逾越节前六天，（约十二1，）末次上耶路撒冷，受犹太首领察验数日之久。人在祂身上找不出瑕疵，这证明祂是完全的，有资格作我们逾越节的羊羔。
4Mark 14:1 speaks of “the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread after two days.” Although the chief priests and the scribes wanted to kill the Lord Jesus, they said, “Not at the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people” (v. 2). Eventually, under God’s sovereignty, they did kill the Lord Jesus at the feast (Matt. 27:15) for the fulfillment of the type. The Passover was a type of Christ (1 Cor. 5:7). Christ is the Lamb of God that God may pass over us, the sinners, as portrayed in typology by the Passover in Exodus 12. Hence, it was necessary for Christ as the Passover Lamb to be killed on the day of the Passover for its fulfillment. According to the type, the Passover Lamb had to be examined for blemishes during the four days preceding the feast of the Passover (Exo. 12:3-6). Before His crucifixion, Christ came to Jerusalem the last time, six days before the Passover (John 12:1), and was examined by the Jewish leaders. There was no blemish found in Him, and He was proved to be perfect and qualified to be the Passover Lamb for us.
患痳疯之西门的家
THE HOUSE OF SIMON THE LEPER
5马可十四章三节说，基督在伯大尼『患痳疯的西门家里』。人在基督以外不可能找到神。这位基督已经离开了圣殿，又判定圣殿要被拆毁。然而，门徒还是被他们对圣殿的宗教观念所霸占。照他们所领会的，神是在圣殿里，因为那是祂的家。我怀疑门徒能否知道，在十三章主耶稣从殿里出来的时候，神已经离开了这个家。基督耶稣既然是神，当祂离开被定罪的圣殿并放弃圣殿的时候，神当然也放弃了圣殿。祂与一些门徒上橄榄山，向他们豫言他们所羡慕的殿将要被拆毁。不仅如此，殿要被基督自己所顶替。
5Mark 14:3 says that Christ was in Bethany “in the house of Simon the leper.” Outside of Christ, it was not possible for anyone to find God. This One had left the temple. He had condemned the temple to be destroyed. However, the disciples were still occupied with their religious concept of the temple. According to their understanding, God was in the temple, for it was His house. I doubt that the disciples realized that God had left that house when the Lord Jesus walked out of the temple in chapter thirteen. Since Christ Jesus is God, when He left the condemned temple and forsook it, God forsook it as well. Going to the Mount of Olives with some of His disciples, He prophesied to them that the temple they admired would be destroyed. Furthermore, that temple would be replaced by Christ Himself
6我们在十四章看见，主离开殿以后，来到伯大尼一个患痳疯得洁净的人家里。患痳疯的象征罪人。患痳疯的西门必定得了主的医治，他感激主、爱主，便在家中为主和祂的门徒摆设筵席，以享受祂的同在。得救的罪人总会这样作。今天，在神的家有患痳疯得洁净的人。我们这班基督里的信徒，都是西门所代表的一班患痳疯得洁净的人。西门爱主耶稣，并为祂摆设筵席，『耶稣在伯大尼患痳疯的西门家里坐席的时候，有一个女人，拿著一玉瓶至贵的真哪哒香膏来，打破玉瓶，把膏浇在祂的头上。』（3。）这个女人实在爱主。神的家，召会，是由一班爱祂的人所组成的，祂的家是由患痳疯得洁净之人和膏祂的人所组成的。
6In chapter fourteen we see that after leaving the temple, the Lord came to a house of a cleansed leper in Bethany. A leper signifies a sinner. Simon, as a leper, must have been healed by the Lord. Being grateful to the Lord and loving Him, he spread a feast in his house for the Lord and His disciples in order to enjoy His presence. A saved sinner would always do this. Today God’sho use is with cleansed lepers. As believers in Christ, we all are cleansed lepers represented by Simon. Simon loved the Lord Jesus and prepared a feast for Him. “When He was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as He reclined at table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of ointment, of pure nard, very costly; and breaking the alabaster flask, she poured it over His head” (v. 3). This woman truly loved the Lord. God’sho use, the church, is composed of those who love Him. His house is composed of cleansed lepers and those who anoint Him
抓住机会爱主
SEIZING THE OPPORTUNITY TO LOVE THE LORD
7在伯大尼西门的家，乃是召会生活的小影。照这小影来看，召会生活是由一班爱主耶稣、患痳疯得洁净之人所组成的。爱祂的人，就如西门与膏祂的女人一样，都以祂作他们完全的顶替，他们的心里没有空间为著殿。他们甚至不愿因著顾到穷人而受打岔。（5。）
7The house of Simon in Bethany is a miniature of the church life. According to this miniature, the church life is composed of cleansed lepers who love the Lord Jesus. Those who love Him, as did Simon and as did the woman who anointed Him, take Him as their full replacement. In their heart there is no room for the temple. They would not even be distracted by caring for the poor (v. 5).
8在场的有几个人『恼怒著彼此说，何必这样枉费香膏？这香膏可以卖三百多银币，分给穷人。他们就向她怒气冲冲』。（4～5。）那些恼怒的门徒认为这女人向主爱的奉献是枉费。已过二十世纪以来，千千万万宝贵的性命、心爱的奇珍、崇高的地位、以及灿烂的前途，都曾『枉费』在主耶稣身上。对这些爱主的人，祂是全然可爱，配得他们献上一切。他们浇在主身上的不是枉费，乃是馨香的见证，见证祂的甘甜。根据六至七节，主耶稣对那些向这女人发怒气的人说，『由她罢！你们为甚么难为她？她在我身上作的，是一件美事。因为常有穷人和你们同在，要向他们行善，随时都可以，只是你们不常有我。』主所说，『只是你们不常有我』这句话，指明我们必须爱主，并把握机会爱祂。今天，许多基督徒关心慈善工作过于顾到基督。对穷人慈善的关切，常常顶替了基督。但在马可十四章，主耶稣不许关切穷人的事来顶替祂自己。祂在这里似乎没有顾到穷人，而只顾到自己。祂似乎说，『不要难为这位爱我的人，她在我身上作了一件美事。你们若要照顾穷人，就等别的时间，到另外的地方去作罢。常有穷人和你们同在，但这是一个独特的时机，让你们以我作你们的顶替，而把你们所有的，全数倾倒在我身上。』
8Some who were present “were indignant among themselves, saying, Why has this waste of the ointment been made? For this ointment could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and given to the poor; and they were scolding her” (vv. 4-5). Those who were indignant regarded the woman’s love offering to the Lord a waste. Throughout the past nineteen centuries, thousands of precious lives, heart treasures, high positions, and golden futures have been “wasted” upon the Lord Jesus. To those who love Him in such a way, He is altogether lovely and worthy of their offering. What they have poured upon Him is not a waste, but a fragrant testimony of His sweetness. According to verses 6 and 7, the Lord Jesus said to those who were scolding the woman, “Let her alone; why are you causing her trouble? She has wrought a good work upon Me. For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want you can do them good; but you do not always have Me.” The Lord’sword, “You do not always have Me,” indicates that we must love the Lord and seize the opportunity to love Him. Today many Christians care more for works of charity than for Christ. A charitable concern for the poor often replaces Christ. But in Mark 14 the Lord Jesus would not allow the concern for the poor to be a replacement of Himself. Here it seems that He does not care for the poor, but cares only for Himself. He seems to be saying, “Do not trouble this one who loves Me. She has done a good work on Me. If you want to take care of the poor, wait for another time and go to another place. The poor are always with you. But this is the unique time for you to take Me as your replacement and to pour out everything upon Me.”
为著主的安葬膏主
ANOINTING THE LORD FOR BURIAL
9主在八节继续说，『她作了她所能的；她是为我的安葬，豫先膏我的身体。』她豫料有这个需要，或者说，她趁这个机会为著主的安葬，来膏主的身体。这指明她从主的话得到主受死的启示，因此抓住机会，把她一切上好的浇在主身上。我们对主要有启示，才能用上好的来爱祂。
9In verse 8 the Lord went on to say, “She has done what she could; she anointed My body beforehand for the burial.” She anticipated the need, or took occasion, to anoint the Lord’s body for burial. This indicates that she received the revelation of the Lord’s death by the Lord’swords. Hence, she seized the opportunity to pour the best she had upon the Lord. To love the Lord with our best requires a revelation concerning Him
10主在九节继续说，『我实在告诉你们，普天之下，无论在甚么地方传扬这福音，也要述说这女人所行的，作为对她的记念。』在前节，主说到祂的安葬，含示祂为著救赎我们，将要有的死与复活。因此在本节，主称福音为这福音，就是指祂受死、埋葬并复活的福音。（林前十五1～4。）
10In verse 9 the Lord continues, “And truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, that also which she did shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.” In the foregoing verse the Lord referred to His burial. The word “burial” implies His death and resurrection for our redemption. Hence, the gospel in verse 9 should refer to the gospel of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection (1 Cor. 15:1-4).
11福音的故事是主爱我们，马利亚的故事是她爱主。我们必须传扬主爱我们，也必须传扬我们爱主。一个是为著我们得救，另一个是为著我们奉献。我们在前几篇信息看见，当主耶稣同四个门徒在橄榄山上，祂向他们讲论产难的起头。（可十三8。）这些产难是为著生产新人，而这生产的过程相当漫长。这新人要怎样生产、生出？我们看见，新人惟有藉著基督的死与复活，才能生出来。藉著祂的死与复活，祂就成为新人的一切。主向门徒论到要来的事，特别是论到产难以后，就在伯大尼进入西门的家，那里有为祂摆设的筵席。当祂坐席的时候，一位爱祂的女人，把她一切上好的浇在祂身上。这指明主对她乃是一切。主说，这女人作了她所能的；她是为主的安葬，豫先膏主的身体。
11The story of the gospel is that the Lord loved us, and the story of the woman who anointed the Lord is that she loved Him. We must preach both—the Lord loving us and our loving the Lord. One is for our salvation, and the other is for our consecration. In foregoing messages we have seen that when the Lord Jesus was on the Mount of Olives with four of His disciples, He spoke to them concerning the beginning of birth pangs (13:8). These birth pangs are for the delivery of the new man, a delivery that involves a long process. How can this man be delivered, be brought forth? We have seen that the new man can be brought forth only through the death and resurrection of Christ. Through His death and resurrection He becomes everything in the new man. After the Lord spoke to His disciples concerning things to come, especially concerning the birth pangs, he entered into Simon’sho me in Bethany, where a feast had been prepared for Him. While He was feasting, a woman who loved Him poured out the best thing she had upon Him. This indicates that He was everything to her. The Lord said that this woman had done what she could, anointing His body beforehand for burial
12主在十四章八节所说的话非常紧要，因为这话指明这女人必定领受了主论到祂自己死与复活的话。我不信彼得领受了这话，但这女人领受了。她晓得她所爱的一位，不久将要受死，而她不会再有机会去膏祂。因此，趁祂还在的时候，她就抓住机会把香膏浇在祂身上。她这样作，乃是为了祂的安葬。
12What the Lord says in verse 8 is crucial, for it indicates that this woman had certainly received the Lord’sword concerning His death and resurrection. I do not believe that Peter received this word, but she received it. She knew that the One she loved would soon be killed and that she would not have another opportunity to anoint Him. Therefore, while He was still present, she seized the opportunity to pour out her ointment upon Him. In doing this, she anointed Him for His burial
被带进基督的死与复活
BROUGHT INTO THE DEATH and resurrection of Christ
13毫无疑问，这女人已经被带进基督的死里。当然，安葬是介于死与复活之间的。她把她的上好浇在主这位作她包罗万有的顶替者身上；她这样作是为了主的安葬。这意思是说，她取用主的死，为要完满的享受祂。
13No doubt, this woman had been brought into the death of Christ. Burial, of course, is between death and resurrection. She poured out her best upon the Lord as her all-inclusive replacement, and she did this for His burial. This means that she took His death in order to have the full enjoyment of Him
14如果我们只有马可福音，我们就不能清楚了解，被带进基督的死与复活是甚么意思。但我们在使徒行传和保罗的书信中，看见这事的发展。当我们在基督的死与复活里，我们就可以尽情享受祂。我们就会像马可十四章的女人，进入主的死与复活，因而享受祂作完全的顶替。在她里面，除了主以外，任何人事物都没有地位。在她里面，摩西、以利亚、或圣殿都没有地位，她自己也没有地位。她已经被这可爱的一位顶替了。
14If we had only the Gospel of Mark, we would not be able to have an adequate understanding of what it means to be brought into the death and resurrection of Christ. In Acts and in Paul’s Epistles we see the development of this matter. When we are in Christ’s death and resurrection, we can enjoy Him to the uttermost. We can be like the woman in Mark 14, who entered into the Lord’s death and resurrection and thereby enjoyed Him asher full replacement. Within her there was no ground for anything or anyone other than the Lord. Within her there was no room for Moses or Elijah or the temple, and there was no ground for herself. She had been replaced by this lovable One.
15这女人已经完全豫备好，以主作她的顶替。她已经同主经过这个过程的种种步骤，所以我们可以说，彼得多少是粗鲁的，她却是周全、细致的。因这缘故，她的确被带进主的死里。她知道主将被治死；而这思想却没有进到彼得里面。因著她领受主所说论到祂受死的话，她也抓住机会为祂的安葬膏祂。藉此，她取用主的死，并为祂的安葬效劳，这是她在主身上所作的一件美事。几天后，有一班人进入主的复活，她也是其中之一。因此，她是先锋，是头一班享受复活基督的人。因著主的豫备，她进入了主的死与复活。
15This woman had been fully prepared to take the Lord as her replacement. She had passed through all the steps of the process with the Lord. Whereas we may say that Peter was somewhat coarse, she was thorough and fine. For this reason, she was certainly brought into the Lord’s death. She realized that the Lord would be put to death. But this thought concerning the Lord’s death did not get into Peter. Because she took in the Lord’sword regarding His death, she also seized the opportunity to anoint Him for burial. By this one step she took the Lord’s death and was working for His burial. This was the good work she did upon Him. Then a few days later she was among those who entered into the Lord’s resurrection. Hence, she was a forerunner, one of the first to enjoy the resurrected Christ. By means of the Lord’s preparation, she entered into His death and resurrection
在召会生活中，
CHRIST AS OUR REPLACEMENT
基督是我们的顶替
IN THE CHURCH LIFE
16我们看见，主在十三章为著祂的死豫备门徒。祂在十四章继续豫备。主的豫备开始于向门徒揭示神的经纶要如何产生一个新人；这新人的出生需要忍受产难。
16We have seen that in chapter thirteen the Lord was preparing His disciples for His death. He continued this preparation in chapter fourteen. The Lord’s preparation began with His unveiling to the disciples how God’secon o my will produce a new man. The birth of this new man requires the suffering of birth pangs
17主在马可十四章享受门徒的爱，藉此继续豫备他们。祂进入一个由患痳疯得洁净的人所组成的家里，享受筵席和膏油的涂抹。筵席是内里的满足，膏油的涂抹是将甜美的香气浇在主身上。因此，在伯大尼西门的家里，主满足了，也接受膏油的涂抹。祂不是被神所膏，乃是被一位爱祂的人所膏。主在伯大尼西门的家里，作了一切的顶替。这一班爱祂的人，除了祂以外，里里外外没有别的人事物。他们只有这奇妙的人位，祂是他们的一切。
17In Mark 14 the Lord continued to prepare the disciples by enjoying their love. Entering into a home composed of cleansed lepers, He enjoyed the feast and also the anointing. The feast was a matter of inner satisfaction, and the anointing was a matter of pouring out upon the Lord something with a sweet savor. Therefore, in Simon’sho use in Bethany the Lord was both satisfied and anointed. He was anointed not by God, but by one of those who loved Him. In Simon’sho me in Bethany, the Lord was the replacement for everything. Those who loved Him did not have anything or anyone apart from Him within them or around them. They had only this wonderful Person, who was everything to them
18我们已经指出，十四章一至十一节有召会生活的小影，特别有经历基督作包罗万有之顶替的小影。因此，在这个小影所描绘的召会生活中，我们有基督作我们的顶替。我们在召会生活里是患痳疯得洁净的人，我们的心房只为著容纳祂。在我们里面，在我们周围，并随著我们的，并没有别的，只有主。我们是藉著祂的死与复活，以祂作一切。我们在本篇信息一开始，就指出十四章一至十一节有三件事摆在一起：反对者的阴谋，跟从主者的爱戴，14:10以及犹大图谋出卖祂。关于犹大的图谋，十四章十至十一节说，『十二个门徒中，有一个加略人犹大，出去见祭司长，要把耶稣交给他们。他们听见就欢喜，又应许给他银子。他就设法怎样趁机会把耶稣交出。』应许给犹大的钱是三十锭银子，（太二六15，）这是一个奴仆的身价。（出二一32。）当奴仆救主的一个跟从者，表达对祂的爱到极点时，另一个却要出卖祂。一个珍爱祂，同时另一个却准备要把祂交给人。
18We have pointed out that in 1 4:1-1 1 we have a miniature of the church life. In particular, we have a miniature of the experience of taking Christ as the all- inclusive replacement. Therefore, in the church life as depicted by this miniature, we have Christ as our replacement. We in the church life are lepers who have been cleansed by Him, and in our hearts there is room only for Him. Within us, around us, and with us there is nothing but the Lord. We take Him as everything through His death and resurrection. At the beginning of this message we pointed out that in 14:1-11 we have the merging of the conspiracy of the opposers, the love of the Lord’s followers, and the plot of Judas to betray Him. Concerning Judas’ plot, and 11 say, “And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went off to the chief priests that he might deliver Him up to them. And hearing this, they rejoiced and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might opportunely deliver Him up.” The money promised to Judas was thirty pieces of silver (Matt. 26:15), the value of a slave (Exo. 21:32). While one of the Slave-Savior’s followers expressed her love to Him to the uttermost, another was about to betray Him. One treasured Him, and at the same time another was preparing to deliver Him up.
