一种完全照著神新约经纶，并为著神新约经纶的生活（八）

A Life Fully According to and for God’s New Testament Economy (8
1读经：马可福音8:27-31;9:30-31;10:32-34，约翰福音20:31，哥林多后书1:21-22，加拉太书2:20。马可福音是一个照著神新约经纶生活之人的传记。我们要明白这本传记，就得领会这本传记所记载的每一件事，都是有意义的。我们感谢主，新约的其他部分，特别是保罗的书信，帮助我们诠释马可福音中主传记的细节。保罗书信的生命读经也将帮助我们明白马可福音这本传记的意义；这本传记乃是描述一种完全照著神新约经纶，并为著神新约经纶的生活。
1Scripture Reading: Mark 8:27-31; 9:30-31; 10:32-34; John 20:31; 2 Cor. 1:21-22; Gal. 2:20 The Gospel of Mark is a biography of a Person who lived according to God’s New Testament economy. In order to understand this biography, we need to realize that every event recorded in it is meaningful. We thank the Lord that the remainder of the New Testament, especially the Epistles of Paul, helps us to interpret the details of the Lord’s biography in Mark. The messages given in the Life-studies of Paul’s Epistles will also help us understand the significance of the Gospel of Mark as a biography of a life fully according to and for God’s New Testament economy
2我们在前一篇信息指出，马可八章启示基督和祂的死与复活。保罗的书信也强调基督和祂的死与复活。事实上，单单腓立比三章十节就包括这三项：『使我认识基督、并祂复活的大能、以及同祂受苦的交通，模成祂的死。』我们在这里看见基督这人位，也看见祂的死与复活。我们最近的信息，交通到马可福音的头四章。我们看见，当主耶稣受浸时，神的灵降在祂身上。照一至二章的记载，从那时起，主耶稣就过著一种传扬福音、教训真理、赶逐污鬼、医治病人、并洁净痳疯的生活。祂将赦罪带给人，也使他们得以享受祂作外面的义和里面的生命。此外，祂将他们带进祂的满足与释放。不仅如此，主耶稣过著一种与神是一，捆绑神的仇敌，拒绝天然的关系并留在属灵生命关系里的生活。主在四章启示祂在前三章生活的意义。主生活的意义在于祂是撒种者，将祂自己当作种子撒到人里面。主将祂自己撒到一班祂所摸的人里面。祂将自己当作种子撒到人里面，就产生了国度。这国度要长大、发展并成熟以至于收割。
2In a previous message we pointed out that in chapter eight of Mark we have a revelation of Christ, His death, and His resurrection. The Epistles of Paul also emphasize Christ with His death and resurrection. In fact, one verse, Philippians 3:10, covers all three: “To know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death.” Here we see Christ the Person and also His death and resurrection. In recent messages we have covered the first four chapters of Mark’s Gospel. We have seen that when the Lord Jesus was baptized, the Spirit of God descended upon Him. From that time onward, as recorded in chapters one and two, the Lord Jesus lived a life of preaching the gospel, teaching the truth, casting out demons, healing the sick, and cleansing the lepers. He brought forgiveness to people, and He also brought them into the enjoyment of Himself as righteousness outwardly and life inwardly. In addition, He brought them into His satisfaction and into liberation. Furthermore, the Lord Jesus lived in a way to be one with God, to bind God’s enemy, and to deny the natural relationship and remain in the relationship of the spiritual life. In chapter four the Lord reveals the significance of His living in the three foregoing chapters. The significance of the Lord’s living is that He is the Sower sowing Himself as a seed into people. The Lord sowed Himself into those who were touched by Him. By His sowing Himself as a seed into others, a kingdom was brought into existence. This kingdom will grow, develop, and ripen into a harvest.
四个医病的事例
four cases of healing
3马可福音一至三章有四个医治的事例：医治正在发烧的西门的岳母，（一30～31，）洁净痳疯，（一40～45，）医治由人带到主面前的瘫子，（二1～12，）以及医治枯干一只手的人。（三1～6。）这四个病例描绘我们得救以前的属灵光景。我们是发烧的，『体温』高得不正常。今天每一个人都是发烧的。我们得救以前，也是患痳疯的；我们是不洁净的、被玷污的、并且是受污染到极点的。不仅如此，我们得救以前，也是个瘫子。我们在与神的关系上完全是瘫子。因著我们是完全瘫痪的，我们就不能为神作甚么。我们这班瘫子是不能行走的。我们也是枯干一只手的人。所以，我们是发烧的，是受玷污的痳疯患者，是不能行走的瘫子，是枯干了一只手的人，不能作事。虽然在马可福音，这些病例是分开的，但就属灵一面来说，这些病例描绘出每一个人的光景，因此这些病例是描写一个人的情形。
3In chapters one through three of the Gospel of Mark there are four cases of healing: the healing of Simon’s mother-in-law, who was sick with a fever (1:30-31); the cleansing of the leper (1:40-45); the healing of the paralytic who was carried to the Lord (2:1-12); and the healing of the man with a withered hand (3:1-6). These four cases describe our spiritual condition before we were saved. We were those who were sick of a fever, those whose “temperature” was abnormally high. Today every fallen human being is sick with a fever. Before we were saved, we also were lepers; we were unclean, defiled, and contaminated to the uttermost. Furthermore, as unsaved persons, we were paralytics. With respect to God, we were altogether paralyzed. Because we were absolutely paralyzed, we were not able to do anything for God. As paralyzed ones, we could not walk. We also were those with a withered hand. Therefore, we were sick with a fever, we were contaminated lepers, we were paralytics unable to walk, and we were those with a withered hand, unable to work. Although these are separate cases in the Gospel of Mark, spiritually speaking, they describe the condition of every human being. Thus, these cases portray the situation of a particular person
彼得是我们的代表
PETER AS OUR REPRESENTATIVE
4你们有否看见在马可福音里，有一个人代表我们？代表我们的就是彼得。照马可福音的记载，彼得是头一个蒙主呼召的。他蒙召以后，总是作带头的人。他甚至带头否认主耶稣。我们可以说，就某种意义而言，彼得比主耶稣先被钉十字架。主复活后，天使题到彼得的名：『你们要去告诉祂的门徒和彼得说，祂在你们以先往加利利去。』（十六7。）因著在马可福音中，彼得是我们的代表，所以本书所描写的病例可以综合起来，将病人命名为彼得。这卷福音书的第一个医病的事例，是医治彼得的岳母，这是很有意义的。在属灵的意义上，这卷书的所有病例都与彼得有关。这意思是说，彼得发了高烧，彼得也是坐在耶利哥城门的瞎子巴底买。彼得发高烧又瞎眼，需要得医治。
4Have you ever realized that in the Gospel of Mark there is one who is our representative? The one who represents us is Peter. According to the record in Mark, Peter was the first to be called by the Lord. After he was called, he was always taking the lead. He even took the lead to deny the Lord Jesus. We may even say that, in a sense, Peter was crucified before the Lord Jesus was. Then after the Lord’s resurrection Peter’s name was mentioned by the angel: “But go, tell His disciples and Peter that He is going before you into Galilee” (16:7). Because in the Gospel of Mark Peter is our representative, all the cases described in this book may be taken as an aggregate and given the name of Peter. It is significant that the first case of healing in this Gospel was the healing of Peter’s mother-in-law. In a spiritual sense, all the cases in this book are related to Peter. This means that Peter was sick of a fever and that Peter was the blind Bartimaeus at the gate of Jericho. Peter needed to be healed of his fever and of his blindness
医治专一的器官
HEALINGS OF PARTICULAR ORGANS
5一至三章的四个医病事例，都属同一类，就是一般的医治。在四章以后，主耶稣接下去有进一步的医治；但所医治的是专一的器官，就是听觉的器官、说话的器官、与视觉的器官。我们要接触别人，必须有这些器官。我们若耳聋、口哑、眼瞎，怎能接触别人？我们不能接触人，因为我们不能听，不能讲，也不能看。彼得是我们的代表，他发烧、患痳疯、瘫痪、枯干，这些都得了医治，但他还是不能听、不能讲、不能看。在这四个一般医治的事例之后，马可福音又有四个事例，是医治专一的器官。七章三十一至三十七节有医治耳聋舌结的人；八章二十二至二十六节，有医治伯赛大的瞎子；九章十四至二十九节，有赶出一个人儿子身上的哑吧灵；十章四十六至五十二节，有医治瞎子巴底买。在这四个病例中，有三种专一的器官：听觉器官、说话
5The four cases of healing in chapters one through three are all in the same category, the category of general healings. After chapter four the Lord Jesus goes on to carry out further healings. But these healings are of particular organs: the hearing organ, the speaking organ, and the seeing organ. In order to contact others, we must have these organs. If we are deaf, dumb, and blind, what contact can we have with others? We could not have any contact at all since we would not be able to hear, speak, or see. As our representative, Peter was healed of his fever, leprosy, para lysis, and withered condition; however, still he could not hear, speak, or see. After the four cases of general healing, we have in Mark four cases of the healing of specific organs. In 7:31-37 we have the healing of a deaf and dumb man; in 8:22-26, the healing of a blind man in Bethsaida; in 9:14-29, the healing of a boy who had a dumb spirit; and in 10:46-52, the healing of blind Bartimaeus. In these four cases three particular organs are healed: the hearing organ, the speaking organ, and the seeing organ.
6器官、和视觉器官得了医治。

两个瞎眼的事例
TWO CASES OF BLINDNESS
7让我们约略来交通医治瞎眼的两个事例。他们来到伯赛大，有人带一个瞎子来到主耶稣跟前，『耶稣拉著瞎子的手，领他到村外，就吐唾沫在他眼睛上，按手在他身上，问他说，你看见甚么没有？』（八23。）他就往上一看，说，『我看见人了，见他们像树行走。』（24。）于是主又按手在他眼睛上，『他定睛一看，就复了原，样样都看得清楚了。』这岂不是描绘我们属灵的光景？我们第一次看见主的时候，还没有清楚的看见祂。我们没有准确的看清属灵的事物。但我们更多接触主以后，就开始清楚的看见了一切事物。医治瞎眼的第二个事例，是医治瞎子巴底买。当主耶稣问巴底买，他要主为他作甚么，瞎子说，『拉波尼，我要能看见。』（十51。）耶稣对他说，『去罢，你的信救了你。』（52。）巴底买立刻看见了，就在路上跟随耶稣。（52。）这是马可福音所记载最后一个医治的事例。
7Let us consider briefly the two cases of the healing of blindness. When they came to Bethsaida, a blind man was brought to the Lord Jesus. “Taking hold of the hand of the blind man, He led him forth outside the village; and having spit in his eyes and laid His hands on him, He asked him, Do you see anything?” (8:23). The man looked up and said, “I behold men; I see them as trees walking” (v. 24). Then the Lord laid His hands upon the man’s e yes again, and “he looked intently and was restored, and he saw all things clearly.” Is this not a picture of our spiritual condition? When we first saw the Lord, we did not see Him clearly. We did not see spiritual things exactly as they are. Then after further contact with the Lord, we began to see all things clearly. The second case of the healing of blindness is the healing of blind Bartimaeus. When the Lord Jesus asked Bartimaeus what he wanted Him to do for him, the blind man said, “Rabboni, that I may recover my sight!” (10:51). Then Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has healed you” (v. 52), and immediately Bartimaeus recovered his sight and followed the Lord on the road (v. 52). This is the last case of healing recorded in the Gospel of Mark.
我们需要具体的得医治
OUR NEED FOR PARTICULAR HEALING
8就属灵一面说，我们与神的关系乃在于听觉器官、说话器官、和视觉器官。我们若不能听见神的话，若不能与神说话，若不能看见神的异象，就不能与祂发生任何关系。如果我们的光景是这样，我们就会像哑吧偶像站在神面前。因此，我们的听觉、说话与视觉器官都需要得医治。
8Spiritually speaking, our relationship with God depends upon the hearing organ, the speaking organ, and the seeing organ. If we cannot hear God’sword, if we cannot talk to God, and if we cannot see God’s vision, we cannot have any relationship with Him. If such were our situation, we would be like a dumb idol standing before God. Therefore, we need the healing of our hearing, speaking, and seeing organs
9新约启示，就属灵一面说，我们是死的，但主耶稣使我们活过来。当祂临到我们，将祂自己撒到我们里面时，我们就被点活了。那时我们的高烧、痳疯、瘫痪和枯干，就都得了医治。赞美主，我们活过来了，我们重生了！但是，我们重生以后，可能还是又聋、又哑、又瞎，需要主专一的医治。这岂不是你们对主的经历么？我能作见证，这正是我的经历。我在一九二五年重生了，但是到了一九三二年，我的耳朵才开始听见神的声音，我的眼睛才开始看见祂的异象，我的口才得著开启为神说话。我赞美祂，今天因著祂的怜悯，我能听，能讲，也能看。
9The New Testament reveals that, spiritually speaking, we were dead, but the Lord Jesus has made us alive. When He came to us and sowed Himself into us, we were enlivened. We were then healed of our fever, leprosy, paralysis, and withered condition. Praise the Lord that we have been made alive, that we have been regenerated! However, after being regenerated, we may still be deaf, dumb, and blind, in need of the Lord’s particular healing. Was this not your experience with the Lord? I can testify that it was my experience. I was regenerated in 1925, but it was not until 1932 that my ears began to hear God’s voice, my eyes began to see His vision, and my mouth was opened to speak for God. I praise Him that today, through His mercy, I can hear, speak, and see
两类的医治
TWO CATEGORIES OF HEALING
10我们必须清楚的明白马可福音里两类的医治。第一类的四个事例与被点活有关。第二类的四个事例则与恢复听觉、说话，与视觉的重要器官有关。这些属灵的器官是接触神所不可少的。在五章二十一至四十三节，有一个患血漏的女人得著医治，并且有一个女孩死了又复活。患血漏的女人是漏掉生命的事例。因著这女人的事例与女孩的事例汇合在一起；而且她生病的十二年正是女孩的年龄；她们又都是女性，这二者可视为一个人的完整事例。如此看来，可以说，女孩乃是生在女人致命的疾病中，且因这病死了。当女人致命的疾病被救主治好时，死了的女孩也就从死里复活了。在七章二十四至三十节，记载赶出叙利腓尼基妇人之女儿身上污鬼的事例。七章二十六节告诉我们：『这妇人是希利尼人，属叙利腓尼基族。』她说叙利亚话，属腓尼基族，（参徒二一2～3，）因腓尼基族是迦南人的后裔，所以她也是迦南妇人。（太十五22。）很难查出是因宗教、婚姻或别的因素，使她成为希利尼人。这女人虽然是三重的外邦人，但在神的眼中，她是神所宠爱的一只『小狗』。（可七28～29。）
10We need to have a clear understanding of the two categories of healing in Mark. The four cases in the first category are related to being enlivened. The four cases in the second category are related to the recovery of the crucial organs of hearing, speaking, and seeing, the spiritual organs necessary for contacting God. In 5:21-43 we have the healing of a woman with a flow of blood and the raising up of a dead girl. The case of the woman with the flow of blood is a case of the leaking out of life. Since this woman’s case is merged with that of the girl and since the twelve years of the woman’s sickness equal the age of the girl and both are females, these cases may be considered the case of one person. In this view, the girl was born, so to speak, in the woman’s death-sickness and died of it. When the woman’s death-sickness was healed by the Savior, the girl rose up from death. In 7:24-30 we have the case of casting a demon out of a Syrophoenician woman’s daughter. We are told in 7:26 that “the woman was a Greek, Syrophoenician by race.” She was Syrian by tongue, Phoenician by race (see Acts 21:2-3), and — the Phoenicians being descendants of the Canaanites— a Canaanite woman (Matt. 15:22). What made her a Greek — religion, marriage, or something else — is difficult to discover. Although this woman was threefold a Gentile, in the sight of God she was a “little dog” whom He loved (vv. 28-29).
11我们若将这些事例摆在一起，并且晓得这些事例就是代表我们的彼得综合的描绘，我们就会看见这些事例指明彼得完全痊愈、康复了。在行传二章，彼得不仅是活的，他的生命和他的听觉、说话、视觉的能力，也都是强而有力的。
11If we put all these cases together, realizing that they make up a composite portrait of Peter, our representative, we shall see that these cases indicate that Peter was fully healed and recovered. In chapter two of Acts, Peter is not only alive; he is strong in life and in the ability to hear, speak, and see
人心里的光景
THE CONDITION OF MAN’SHE ART
12主耶稣在马可七章一至二十三节暴露人心里的光景。在这一段，主是一个外科医生，剖开我们里面的人，揭露其中的真实光景。主在二十节说，『从人里面出来的，那才污秽人。』然后，祂列出『从人心里发出』的恶事。（21～22。）最后，祂下结语说，『这一切的恶，都是从里面发出来，且能污秽人。』（23。）我们都需要看见人里面的光景，并看见堕落的人心里毫无良善。
12In 7:1-23 the Lord Jesus exposes the condition of man’she art. In this section of Mark the Lord is a surgeon who opens our inner being and exposes its true condition. In 7:20 the Lord says, “That which goes out of a man, that defiles a man.” Then He lists a number of evil things that proceed “out of the heart of men” (vv. 21-22). After this, He concludes, “All these wicked things proceed from within, and they defile a man” (v. 23). We all need to see man’sin ward condition. We all need to realize that there is nothing good in the heart of fallen man
两个𫗪养的事例
TWO CASES OF FEEDING
13主暴露人心以后，就有两个𫗪养的事例：一个是𫗪养像『小狗在桌子底下』的外邦人。（七27～30。）另一个是叫四千人吃饱。（八1～9。）主耶稣在七章二十七节对叙利腓尼基妇人说，『让儿女们先吃饱，因为不好拿儿女的饼丢给小狗。』妇人回答说，『主阿，是的，就是小狗在桌子底下，也吃孩子们的碎渣。』（28。）犹太人被视为神的儿女，而这里外邦人则被描绘成『小狗』，并非野狗，而是宠物狗，家庭餐桌下的狗。正当儿女们围桌用餐时，宠物狗却在桌下，等候可能掉落的碎渣。这些碎渣就成为宠物狗的分。我们在这里看见，主不仅是桌上儿女的饼，也是桌底下的碎渣，祂甚至是『小狗』－外邦人－的分。
13After the exposure of the heart, there are two cases of feeding: the feeding of the Gentiles as the “little dogs under the table” (7:27-30) and the feeding of four thousand (8:1-9). In 7:27 the Lord Jesus said to the Syrophoenician woman, “Let the children be satisfied first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs.” The woman answered, “Yes, Lord, but even the little dogs under the table eat of the little children’s crumbs” (7:28). The Jews were regarded as God’s children, and here the Gentiles are portrayed as “little dogs,” not as wild dogs, but as pet dogs, little dogs under the family table. As the children were eating at the table, the pet dogs were waiting under the table for any crumbs that might fall. Those crumbs became the portion of the pet dogs. Here we see that the Lord is not only the children’s bread on the table, but also the crumbs under the table. He is even the portion of the “little dogs,” the Gentiles
14八章一至九节记载主叫四千人吃饱。众人都吃，并且都吃饱了，『拾起剩下的零碎，有七筐子。』（8。）
14In 8:1-9 we have the feeding of the four thousand. After the people ate and were satisfied, “they took up the broken pieces left over, seven baskets” (v. 8
揭示基督和祂的死与复活
THE UNVEILING OF CHRIST with His death and resurrection
15八章二十七节至九章一节所揭示的，是基督和祂的死与复活。在此以前，主耶稣没有向门徒揭示祂自己。他们只是盲目的跟从祂，不知道祂是谁。但在八章末了，主带领他们离开耶路撒冷的宗教气氛，来到该撒利亚腓立比，处身在清朗的气氛中。祂在路上『问门徒说，人说我是谁？』（27。）他们对祂说，『有人说是施浸者约翰，另有人说是以利亚，还有别人说是申言者中的一位。』（28。）主问他们说，『你们说我是谁？』（29。）彼得抢先宣告说，『你是基督。』他看见了耶稣是基督的异象。主立即接著向他们讲论祂的死与复活。所以这里所揭示的，是基督的身位和祂的死与复活。这几节有极重要的启示，就是关于基督的身位和祂的死与复活。
15In 8:27—9:1 we have the unveiling of Christ with His death and resurrection. Before that time, the Lord Jesus had not been unveiled to His disciples. They followed Him blindly, without realizing who He is. Then at the end of chapter eight the Lord brought them away from the religious atmosphere of Jerusalem to the clear atmosphere of Caesarea Philippi. On the way “He questioned His disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?” (8:27). They replied, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but others, one of the prophets” (v. 28). Then the Lord questioned them, “But you, who do you say that I am?” (v. 29). Peter took the lead to declare, “You are the Christ!” He saw the vision that Jesus is the Christ. Immediately, the Lord went on to speak to them concerning His death and resurrection. Therefore, here we have the unveiling of the Person of Christ and also the unveiling of His death and resurrection. In these verses we have the crucial revelation of the Person of Christ with His death and resurrection
