Gone my transgressions, and now I am free—all because Jesus was wounded for me.
我罪蒙赦免,今喜得释放,都因救主耶稣为我受伤。
They went to a place called Gethsemane.
Mark 14:32
他们来到一个地方,名叫客西马尼。-马可福音14章32节
If you visit the village of Capernaum beside the Sea of Galilee, you will find an exhibit of ancient olive presses. Formed from basalt rock, the olive press consists of two parts: a base and a grinding wheel. The base is large, round, and has a trough carved out of it. The olives were placed in this trough, and then the wheel, also made from heavy stone, was rolled over the olives to extract the oil.
若你来到加利利海附近的迦百农,你会看到那里展示着一些用来压榨橄榄油的古老器具。榨油机是由一个底座和一个砂轮组成,都是用沉重的玄武岩制成,底座大而圆,并在中央有一个凹槽。人们将橄榄放在凹槽里,用砂轮辗过便能榨出橄榄油。
On the night before His death, Jesus went to the Mount of Olives overlooking the city of Jerusalem. There, in the garden called Gethsemane, He prayed to the Father, knowing what lay ahead of Him.
在耶稣受死的前一晚,祂来到可以俯瞰耶路撒冷城的橄榄山上。祂在那称为客西马尼的园子里向天父祷告,因为祂知道前面的道路极其痛苦。
The word Gethsemane means “place of the olive press”—and that perfectly describes those first crushing hours of Christ’s suffering on our behalf. There, “in anguish, he prayed . . . and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground” (Luke 22:44).
「客西马尼」是指「压榨橄榄油的地方」,这个名字贴切地描述了基督为我们背负罪担的痛苦挣扎。在那里,「耶稣极其伤痛,祷告更加恳切,汗珠如大血点滴在地上」(路加福音22章44节) 。
Jesus the Son suffered and died to take away “the sin of the world” (John 1:29) and restore our broken relationship with God the Father. “Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering . . . . He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities, the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed” (Isa. 53:4-5).
上帝的儿子耶稣为了「除去世人罪孽」(约翰福音1章29节) 、恢复我们与父上帝破碎的关系而受苦、受死。「祂诚然担当我们的忧患,背负我们的痛苦;……祂为我们的过犯受害,为我们的罪孽压伤。因祂受的刑罚,我们得平安;因祂受的鞭伤,我们得医治」(以赛亚书53章4-5节) 。
Our hearts cry out in worship and gratitude.
Father, help me understand what Your Son endured for me. Help me appreciate the depths of love that would allow my Lord and Christ to be crushed for my wrongs and my rescue.
我们的心以敬拜和感谢向上帝欢呼。
天父,帮助我体会祢的爱子为我承受的苦难,
帮助我对祢深刻的爱心存感谢。
祢的爱如此深厚,
竟让基督为我的过犯被压伤,成为我的拯救。
