约翰福音第11章

《圣经》约翰福音-第11章

约11:1 有一个患病的人，名叫拉撒路，住在伯大尼，就是马利亚和她姐姐马大的村庄。 (串)本章18|路10:38,39

†[吕]有一个人，伯大尼人拉撒路、正患着病；他是马利亚和姐姐马大那村子的人。

†[思]有一个病人，名叫拉匝禄，住在伯达尼，即玛利亚和她姊姊玛尔大所住的村庄。

†[当代]在伯大尼村，有一个名叫拉撒路的人病倒了。这伯大尼就是马利亚和她姐姐马大居住的村庄。

†[新译]有一个患病的人，名叫拉撒路，住在伯大尼，就是马利亚和她姊姊马大的村庄。

†[Wlb]有病者拉撒路、居伯大尼、即马利亚与其姊妹马大之村、

†[Xdv]有一个患病的人名叫拉撒路，住在伯大尼；马利亚和她的姊姊马大也住在这个村庄。

†[Kjv]Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

†[Nkjv]Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

†[BBE]Now a certain man named Lazarus was ill; he was of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

†[GNT] A man named Lazarus, who lived in Bethany, became sick. Bethany was the town where Mary and her sister Martha lived.

†[NIV]Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

本会注释　　[ 拉撒路的复活：约11:1-45。见本卷注释223页地图；231页图表；关于神迹，见第208-213页]。
　　有一个。关于这件事发生的时间，见@太19:1@；@路17:1,11@注释。
　　拉撒路。这个名字源自希伯来文'El`azar，意思可能是“上帝所帮助的人”，“上帝是他的帮助”或“上帝帮助”。同观福音三卷没有提拉撒路，但路加曾提到过耶稣访问马大和马利亚的家（路10:38-42）。然而，路加并没有指出她们姐妹俩还有一个耶稣所深爱的兄弟。路16:19-31比喻中的乞丐也叫拉撒路。有些人认为，现在这件事和那个乞丐名字的选择之间存在某种联系（见@路16:20@注释）。
　　伯大尼。一个离耶路撒冷大约2.7公里的村庄，位于橄榄山的东坡。这个地方一般被人认为就是现在的el-`Azariyeh，意思是“拉撒路的（村庄）”。
　　马利亚。关于马利亚的身份，见《路加福音》第7章补充注释。
　　马大。关于马大的性格，见@路10:41@注释。

约11:2 这马利亚就是那用香膏抹主，又用头发擦他脚的；患病的拉撒路是她的兄弟。 (串)太26:7可14:3约12:3

†[吕]这马利亚是那用香膏抹主，用自己的头发把主的脚擦乾的；她兄弟拉撒路病了。

†[思]玛利亚就是那曾用香液傅抹过主，并用自己的头发擦乾过他脚的妇人，患病的拉匝禄是他的兄弟。

†[当代]马利亚便是用香膏抹耶稣，又用自己的头发抹祂的脚的那一位；拉撒路是她的弟弟。

†[新译]这马利亚就是后来用香膏抹主，并且用头发把主的脚擦干的那人；患病的拉撒路是她的兄弟。

†[Wlb]此马利亚、乃昔以膏膏主、以发拭其足者、病者拉撒路、其兄弟也、

†[Xdv]（这马利亚就是那位曾用香油抹主的脚，用自己的头发去擦干的。患病的拉撒路就是她的弟弟。）

†[Kjv]It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

†[Nkjv]It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

†[BBE](The Mary whose brother Lazarus was ill, was the Mary who put perfumed oil on the Lord and made his feet dry with her hair.)

†[GNT] (This Mary was the one who poured the perfume on the Lord's feet and wiped them with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus who was sick.)

†[NIV]This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.

本会注释　　用……抹主。见@约12:1-7@注释。见《路加福音》第7章补充注释。约翰以后才提这件事，显然他认为读者一定是很熟悉的。

约11:3 她姐妹两个就打发人去见耶稣，说：“主啊，你所爱的人病了。” (串)本章5,36

†[吕]她姊妹两个就差遣人去见耶稣说：“主阿，请看，你所爱的人病了。”

†[思]他们姊妹二人便派人到耶稣那说：“主啊！你所爱的病了！”

†[当代]她们姊妹两个派人去找耶稣说：“主啊，你所爱的拉撒路病了！”

†[新译]姊妹二人派人到耶稣那里去，说：“主啊，你所爱的人病了。”

†[Wlb]姊妹遣人告耶稣曰、主、尔所爱者病矣、

†[Xdv]那两姊妹打发人去见耶稣，说：“主啊，你所爱的朋友病了。”

†[Kjv]Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

†[Nkjv]Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, "Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick."

†[BBE]So the sisters sent to him, saying, Lord, your dear friend is ill.

†[GNT] The sisters sent Jesus a message: "Lord, your dear friend is sick."

†[NIV]So the sisters sent word to Jesus, "Lord, the one you love is sick."

本会注释　　打发。就是打发一个报信的人。
　　所爱的。phileō，“像一个朋友那样去爱”。关于phileō和agapaō（钦佩、尊重、尊敬的爱）之间的区别，见@太5:43,44@注释。Agapaō在约11:5中表示耶稣对拉撒路和他姐姐们的爱。姐妹俩为她们所深爱的病中的弟弟向主发出的祈求非常简短，这显示出他们之间的爱和亲密的友谊。她们觉得耶稣只要简单被告知，了解到她们的需要，就会立即赶来。然而，耶稣迟迟没有到来，她们就不能理解祂的拖延了。她们的兄弟死了，马大和马利亚的心中充满了悲伤。她们的祈求似乎没有得到回应。但是，那洞悉一切、了解将来的主却看到了一个过于她们所期望的辉煌答案。

约11:4 耶稣听见，就说：“这病不至于死，乃是为上帝的荣耀，叫上帝的儿子因此得荣耀。” (串)太9:24|本章40约13:31

†[吕]耶稣听见了，却说：“这病不至于死，乃是为了上帝的荣耀，要使上帝的儿子藉着这事而得到荣耀。”

†[思]耶稣听了便说：“这病不致于死，只是为彰显天主的光荣，并为叫天主子因此受到光荣。”

†[当代]耶稣听见就说：“这病不会致命，只是为了荣耀上帝，使祂的儿子藉此得到荣耀。”

†[新译]耶稣听见，就说：“这病不至于死，而是为了　神的荣耀，使　神的儿子因此得到荣耀。”

†[Wlb]耶稣闻之曰、此病不至死、乃为上帝之荣、俾上帝子以是而荣也、

†[Xdv]耶稣听见这消息就说：“拉撒路的病不至于死，而是要荣耀上帝，并且使上帝的儿子因此得到荣耀。”

†[Kjv]When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

†[Nkjv]When Jesus heard that, He said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it."

†[BBE]When this came to his ears, Jesus said, The end of this disease is not death, but the glory of God, so that the Son of God may have glory because of it.

†[GNT] When Jesus heard it, he said, "The final result of this sickness will not be the death of Lazarus; this has happened in order to bring glory to God, and it will be the means by which the Son of God will receive glory."

†[NIV]When he heard this, Jesus said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it."

本会注释　　不至于死。那疾病不至于死，在这件事中，死只是短时间的，很快便被生命所胜过了。
　　乃是为。hina，用在这里正确的理解应该是引导一个结果状语从句（见@约9:3@注释）。即上帝的名得荣耀是拉撒路得病以及死亡的结果。仇敌用来残害人类的手段，上帝却将其控制，反而使之成为那些“爱上帝的人”之益处（罗8:28；参《历代愿望》471页）。

约11:5 耶稣素来爱马大和她妹子并拉撒路。 (串)本章3,36

†[吕]耶稣素来深爱马大和她妹妹跟拉撒路。

†[思]耶稣素爱玛尔大及她的妹妹和拉匝禄。

†[当代]耶稣一向很爱马大、马利亚和拉撒路，

†[新译]耶稣向来爱马大和她的妹妹马利亚，以及拉撒路。

†[Wlb]马大姊妹、并拉撒路、皆耶稣所爱者、

†[Xdv]耶稣一向爱马大和她的妹妹，也爱拉撒路。

†[Kjv]Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

†[Nkjv]Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

†[BBE]Now Jesus had love in his heart for Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

†[GNT] Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

†[NIV]Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

本会注释　　爱。agapaō，钦佩、尊敬、尊重的爱（见@太5:43,44@注释）。关于耶稣对拉撒路的爱，只使用过phileō这么一个词（见3节注释）。有些注释家第3,5节中看到约翰将phileo和agapaō当作同义词的证据。但不一定得出这样的结论。实际上第5节涉及到那两姐妹，选用agapaō是为了避免可能的推测，说这里只是指人的情感。约翰的著作经常用Agapao来表示基督徒彼此之间表现的爱（约13:34；15:12；约一4:7,11等）。

约11:6 听见拉撒路病了。就在所居之地仍住了两天。 (串)约10:40

†[吕]故此他虽听说拉撒路病了，仍在所在的地方住了两天。

†[思]当他听说拉匝禄病了，仍在原地逗留了两天。

†[当代]可是祂听到拉撒路有病的消息后，却仍逗留了两天，

†[新译]他听说拉撒路病了，仍然在原来的地方住了两天，

†[Wlb]既闻其病、于所居之处仍留二日、

†[Xdv]他接到拉撒路害病的消息后，继续在所住的地方停留两天。

†[Kjv]When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

†[Nkjv]So, when He heard that he was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was.

†[BBE]So when the news came to him that Lazarus was ill, he did not go from the place where he was for two days.

†[GNT] Yet when he received the news that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was for two more days.

†[NIV]Yet when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days.

本会注释　　住了两天。耶稣知道自己迟延的原因，但这对于那焦急的家庭来说，就是一个奥秘了。耶稣允许拉撒路落在死亡的权下，这样祂的神性就得以彰显，并有无可辩驳的证据证明，祂的确就是复活和生命。藉着让拉撒路复活，耶稣给不信的犹太人提供了最大是凭据，证明祂就是弥赛亚，是世人的救主。
　　从基督在比哩亚传道的中心到犹太地的伯大尼有40公里的距离，大约就是一天的路程。耶稣用在路上的工夫估计可能要长一些，需约两天的时间。耶稣的习惯是沿途一边走一边传道（见《历代愿望》529页）。无疑报信的人从耶稣那里回来的时候，拉撒路还活着（见《历代愿望》526页），但一定在此之后很快就死了，因为当耶稣到的时候他已经死了四天了（第17节）。因此，将本章的各种时间因素综合在一起考虑，不一定能得出结论说，报信人到耶稣那里通知祂时，拉撒路已死，象一些人所认为的那样。

约11:7 然后对门徒说：“我们再往犹太去吧。”

†[吕]然后，过些时候（希腊文：这事以后）、就对门徒说：“我们再往犹太去吧。”

†[思]此后，才对门徒说：“我们再往犹太去罢！”

†[当代]然后才对门徒说：“我们回犹太去吧！”

†[新译]然后对门徒说：“我们再到犹太去吧。”

†[Wlb]后谓门徒曰、我侪可复往犹太、

†[Xdv]然后他对门徒说：“我们再到犹太去吧。”

†[Kjv]Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

†[Nkjv]Then after this He said to the disciples, "Let us go to Judea again."

†[BBE]Then after that time he said to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

†[GNT] Then he said to the disciples, "Let us go back to Judea."

†[NIV]Then he said to his disciples, "Let us go back to Judea."

本会注释　　再往犹太去。耶稣最近刚因为犹太人的敌视而离开犹太地（约10:39,40；见@太19:1@注释）。当耶稣建议要回犹太地的时候，祂并没有提到拉撒路，从门徒们的回答中（见约11:8）显然可以看出他们没有想到拉撒路。

约11:8 门徒说：“拉比，犹太人近来要拿石头打你，你还往那里去吗？” (串)约1:38|约8:59;10:31

†[吕]门徒对他说：“老师（希腊文：拉比），近今来犹太人正想法子要用石头打你呢。你再往那里去么？”

†[思]门徒向他说：“辣彼，近来犹太人图谋砸死你，你又要往那去么？”

†[当代]祂的门徒立刻提醒祂：“老师，犹太人近来常常想拿石头打你，你还要往那里去吗？”

†[新译]门徒对他说：“拉比，近来犹太人要拿石头打你，你还到那里去吗？”

†[Wlb]门徒曰、夫子、犹太人方欲以石击尔、尔尚复往乎、

†[Xdv]他的门徒说：“老师，前些时候，犹太人要拿石头打你，你还想再到那里去吗？”

†[Kjv]His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

†[Nkjv]The disciples said to Him, "Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?"

†[BBE]The disciples said to him, Master, the Jews were attempting only the other day to have you stoned, and are you going back there again?

†[GNT] "Teacher," the disciples answered, "just a short time ago the people there wanted to stone you; and are you planning to go back?"

†[NIV]But Rabbi," they said, "a short while ago the Jews tried to stone you, and yet you are going back there?"

本会注释　　拉比。rhabbi，“夫子”，用来称呼杰出闻名的教师，意为“我的大人”（见@约1:38@注释）。
　　拿石头打你。见约10:39。
　　还往那里去。对于门徒来说，耶稣冒着生命的危险往那些不信又极度仇恨祂的人那里去，显然是个不智的举动。

约11:9 耶稣回答说：“白日不是有十二小时吗？人在白日走路，就不至跌倒，因为看见这世上的光。 (串)约9:4

†[吕]耶稣回答说：“白日不是有十二个钟头么？人若在白日走路，就不碰倒，因为看见这世界的光。

†[思]耶稣回答说：“白日不是有十二个时辰么？人若在白日行路，不会碰跌，因为看得见这世界的光；

†[当代]耶稣说：“白天不是有十二小时吗？人在白天走路，因为有光，自然不会跌倒。

†[新译]耶稣说：“白昼不是有十二小时吗？人若在白昼行走，就不会跌倒，因为他看见这世上的光；

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、昼非六时乎、人昼行不蹶、因见此世之光、

†[Xdv]耶稣说：“白天不是有十二个钟头吗？人在白天走路，不至于跌倒，因为他看得见这世上的光。

†[Kjv]Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

†[Nkjv]Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

†[BBE]Then Jesus said in answer, Are there not twelve hours in the day? A man may go about in the day without falling, because he sees the light of this world.

†[GNT] Jesus said, "A day has twelve hours, doesn't it? So those who walk in broad daylight do not stumble, for they see the light of this world.

†[NIV]Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? A man who walks by day will not stumble, for he sees by this world's light.

本会注释　　十二小时。犹太人的白天是从日出到日落，分为十二个时间段。白天的长短随季节的不同而变化，从夏至时的十四小时零十二分钟到冬至时的十小时零三分钟，因此，不同季节小时的长度也是变化的，变化的最大幅度在二十分钟左右。
　　在白日走路。将第9,10节和@约9:4@的观点（见该处注释）进行比较。那里的重点是讲，当趁着有机会的时候殷勤作工；而这里则强调的是，耶稣的时候还没有到（见@约7:6@节注释）。

约11:10 若在黑夜走路，就必跌倒，因为他没有光。” (串)耶13:16约12:35

†[吕]但人若在黑夜里走路，就会碰倒，因为没有光在他身上。”

†[思]人若在黑夜行路，就要碰跌，因为他没有光。”

†[当代]只有在夜间没有光的时候走路，才会跌倒。”

†[新译]人若在夜间行走，就会跌倒，因为他没有光。”

†[Wlb]夜行则蹶、以其无光也、

†[Xdv]人在黑夜走路，就会绊倒，因为他没有光。”

†[Kjv]But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

†[Nkjv]But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."

†[BBE]But if a man goes about in the night, he may have a fall because the light is not in him.

†[GNT] But if they walk during the night they stumble, because they have no light."

†[NIV]It is when he walks by night that he stumbles, for he has no light."

约11:11 耶稣说了这话，随后对他们说：“我们的朋友拉撒路睡了，我去叫醒他。” (串)但12:2太27:52徒7:60林前15:18,51帖前4:13,14

†[吕]说了这些话以后，就对他们说：“我们的朋友拉撒路睡着了；但是我要去叫醒他。”

†[思]耶稣说了这些话，又给他们说：“我们的朋友拉匝禄睡着了，我要去叫醒他。”

†[当代]接著耶稣又说：“我们的朋友拉撒路已经睡了，我们去叫醒他。”

†[新译]耶稣说完了这些话，跟着又对他们说：“我们的朋友拉撒路睡了，我要去唤醒他。”

†[Wlb]言竟、又曰、我侪之友拉撒路寝矣、我往寤之、

†[Xdv]耶稣说了这些话后，又说：“我们的朋友拉撒路睡着了，我要去唤醒他。”

†[Kjv]These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

†[Nkjv]These things He said, and after that He said to them, "Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up."

†[BBE]These things said he: and after that he said to them, Lazarus our friend is at rest; but I go so that I may make him come out of his sleep.

†[GNT] Jesus said this and then added, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I will go and wake him up."

†[NIV]After he had said this, he went on to tell them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going there to wake him up."

本会注释　　我们的朋友。在这里拉撒路也被当成是门徒的朋友（见第3节注释）。
　　睡了。koimaō，该词有两种用法，既可以指正常的睡觉（太28:13；路22:45等），又可以指死亡的睡眠（太27:52；林前7:39等）。门徒这里以为耶稣是在说自然的睡眠（见本卷注释第105页）。
　　下面这些对比显示出将睡眠比作死亡的适合性：（1）睡眠是一种无意识的状态。“死了的人毫无所知”（传9:5,6）。（2）睡眠是从生活的一切外部活动上休息下来。“阴间没有工作，没有谋算，没有知识，也没有智慧”（传9:10）。（3）睡眠中不可能进行有意识的思想。“他的气一断……他所打算的……就消灭了”（诗146:4）。（4）睡眠一直持续到一个人被唤醒的时候。“人也是如此，躺下……等到天地没有了”（伯14:12）。（5）睡眠使一个人不能参与那些清醒之人的活动。“在日光之下所行的一切事上，他们永不再有分了”（传9:6）。（6）睡眠使心灵的情感不再起作用。“他们的爱，他们的恨，他们的嫉妒，早都消灭了”（传9:6）。（7）睡眠自然而来，会不可避免地临到所有的人。“活着的人知道必死”（传9:5）。（8）睡眠使一切对上帝的称颂止息。“死人不能赞美耶和华”（诗115:17；参赛38:18）。

约11:12 门徒说：“主啊，他若睡了，就必好了。”

†[吕]门徒就对耶稣说：“主阿，他若是睡着，自会得救治的。”

†[思]门徒便对他说：“主，若是他睡着了，必定好了。”

†[当代]门徒听不懂，便说：“主啊，他若睡了，那就快要好了。”

†[新译]门徒说：“主啊，如果他睡了，就会好过来的。”

†[Wlb]门徒曰、主、寝则将愈矣、

†[Xdv]门徒说：“主啊，如果他是睡着了，他会好起来的。”

†[Kjv]Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

†[Nkjv]Then His disciples said, "Lord, if he sleeps he will get well."

†[BBE]Then his disciples said to him, Lord, if he is resting he will get well.

†[GNT] The disciples answered, "If he is asleep, Lord, he will get well."

†[NIV]His disciples replied, "Lord, if he sleeps, he will get better."

本会注释　　好了。sōzō，是指人从疾病中“好转”，“康复”。

约11:13 耶稣这话是指着他死说的，他们却以为是说照常睡了。

†[吕]原来耶稣是指着他的死而说的；他们却以为耶稣是指着他安然睡觉而说的。

†[思]耶稣原是指他的死说的，他们却以为他是指安眠睡觉说的。

†[当代]其实，耶稣是指他已经死了，门徒却以为他真的睡了。

†[新译]其实耶稣是指着拉撒路的死说的，门徒却以为他是指正常的睡眠说的。

†[Wlb]耶稣此言、乃指其死、门徒意其谓安寝也、

†[Xdv]其实，耶稣的意思是说拉撒路已经死了；他们却以为他讲的是正常的睡眠。

†[Kjv]Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

†[Nkjv]However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep.

†[BBE]Jesus, however, was talking of his death: but they had the idea that he was talking about taking rest in sleep.

†[GNT] Jesus meant that Lazarus had died, but they thought he meant natural sleep.

†[NIV]Jesus had been speaking of his death, but his disciples thought he meant natural sleep.

本会注释　　他们却以为。门徒们并没有明白基督所说“睡了”的含义，他们还盼望着拉撒路已经度过危机并且从他的睡梦中醒来呢。

约11:14 耶稣就明明的告诉他们说：“拉撒路死了。

†[吕]于是耶稣就公开坦白地对他们说：“拉撒路死了。

†[思]然后，耶稣就明明地向他们说：“拉匝禄死了。

†[当代]耶稣就明确地告诉他们说：“拉撒路真的死了。

†[新译]于是，耶稣公开地告诉他们：“拉撒路死了。

†[Wlb]耶稣遂明告之曰、拉撒路死矣、

†[Xdv]于是耶稣明明地告诉他们：“拉撒路死了；

†[Kjv]Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

†[Nkjv]Then Jesus said to them plainly, "Lazarus is dead.

†[BBE]Then Jesus said to them clearly, Lazarus is dead.

†[GNT] So Jesus told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead,

†[NIV]So then he told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead,

本会注释　　明明地。现在耶稣不再用比喻说话。

约11:15 我没有在那里就欢喜，这是为你们的缘故，好叫你们相信。如今我们可以往他那里去吧。”

†[吕]我为你们欢喜我不在那里，好叫你们相信。但我们往他那里去吧。”

†[思]为了你们，我喜欢我不在那，好叫你们相信；我们到他那去罢！”

†[当代]为了使你们更相信我，我很庆幸不在那里，现在我们可以去了。”

†[新译]我为你们欢喜，因为我不在那里，是要使你们相信。现在我们到他那里去吧。”

†[Wlb]我未在彼、则为尔喜、致尔信也、虽然、我侪往就之、

†[Xdv]为了要使你们相信，我不在他那里倒是好的，现在我们去看他吧。”

†[Kjv]And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.

†[Nkjv]And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him."

†[BBE]And because of you I am glad I was not there, so that you may have faith; but let us go to him.

†[GNT] but for your sake I am glad that I was not with him, so that you will believe. Let us go to him."

†[NIV]and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him."

本会注释　　没有在那里。这里暗示如果耶稣在伯大尼拉撒路就不会死。
　　你们相信。耶稣传道过程中这一最大的神迹将要加强门徒们的信心，使他们更加确定祂就是上帝的儿子（参第6节注释）。

约11:16 多马，又称为低土马，就对那同作门徒的说：“我们也去和他同死吧。” (串)太10:3可3:18约14:5;20:24-28;21:2徒1:13|太26:35可14:31

†[吕]那称为双生的多马，就对同做门徒的说：“我们也去、和他同死吧。”

†[思]号称狄狄摩的多默便向其他的同伴说：“我们也去，同他一起死罢！”

†[当代]那又名低土马的多马向其他的门徒说：“去吧，要是死，也让我们跟老师一块儿死吧！”

†[新译]那称为“双生子”的多马，对其他的门徒说：“我们也去跟他一同死吧！”

†[Wlb]多马称低土马者、谓同人曰、我侪亦往、与之偕亡、

†[Xdv]多马（绰号双胞胎的）对其他的门徒说：“我们跟老师一道去，跟他一起死吧！”

†[Kjv]Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

†[Nkjv]Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with Him."

†[BBE]Then Thomas, who was named Didymus, said to the other disciples, Let us go so that we may be with him in death.

†[GNT] Thomas (called the Twin) said to his fellow disciples, "Let us all go along with the Teacher, so that we may die with him!"

†[NIV]Then Thomas (called Didymus) said to the rest of the disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with him."

本会注释　　多马。多马是希伯来词语te'om“（双生”）的音译（见@可3:18@注释）。
　　低土马。低土马是希腊词语Didumos的音译，意思是“双生的”。次经《多马行传》说多马是耶稣的双胞兄弟。这个古老的传说是完全没有根据的。多马在《约翰福音》起着比较重要的作用（见约14:5；20:24-29；21:2）。他的性格似乎是“诚实胆小的”（见《历代愿望》296页）。当耶稣定意要往伯大尼去时，尽管多马的心中充满了最黑暗的忧虑，但他的忠诚还是催促他与他的主同行，在他看来，他们此行就是前往死地。

约11:17 耶稣到了，就知道拉撒路在坟墓里已经四天了。 (串)本章39

†[吕]耶稣来到，见拉撒路在坟墓里、已经有四天了。

†[思]耶稣一到伯达尼，得知拉匝禄在坟墓已经四天了。

†[当代]耶稣到了伯大尼的时候，拉撒路已经下葬了四天；

†[新译]耶稣到了，知道拉撒路在坟墓里已经四天了。

†[Wlb]耶稣至、知拉撒路葬已四日矣、

†[Xdv]耶稣到了伯大尼，知道拉撒路已经在四天前埋葬了。

†[Kjv]Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.

†[Nkjv]So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

†[BBE]Now when Jesus came, he made the discovery that Lazarus had been put into the earth four days before.

†[GNT] When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had been buried four days before.

†[NIV]On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.

本会注释　　四天。见第39节注释。关于这个时间段与“两天”之间的关系，见第6节注释。

约11:18 伯大尼离耶路撒冷不远，约有六里路。

†[吕]伯大尼近耶路撒泠，约有三公里（希腊文作：十五斯他丢。一‘斯他丢’约等于一八零公尺）路。

†[思]伯达尼靠近耶路撒冷，相距约十五“斯塔狄”，

†[当代]伯大尼离耶路撒冷只有三公里，

†[新译]伯大尼靠近耶路撒冷，相距约有三公里。

†[Wlb]伯大尼近耶路撒冷、相去约六里、

†[Xdv]伯大尼离耶路撒冷还不到三公里；

†[Kjv]Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:

†[Nkjv]Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.

†[BBE]Now Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about two miles away;

†[GNT] Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem,

†[NIV]Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem,

本会注释　　伯大尼。见第1节注释。
　　离耶路撒冷不远。提到这一点，无疑是说明许多人很方便从耶路撒冷赶来（见第19节）。来的人中有一些是仇视耶稣的。

约11:19 有好些犹太人来看马大和马利亚，要为她们的兄弟安慰她们。 (串)伯2:11本章31

†[吕]有许多犹太人来看马大和马利亚，要为她们兄弟的事抚慰她们。

†[思]因而有许多犹太人来到玛尔大和玛利亚那，为她们兄弟的死安慰她们。

†[当代]所以有很多犹太人来安慰马大和马利亚。

†[新译]有许多犹太人来到马大和马利亚那里，为了拉撒路的死来安慰她们。

†[Wlb]犹太人多就马大马利亚、为其兄弟而唁之、

†[Xdv]有好些犹太人来探望马大和马利亚，为了她们弟弟的死来安慰她们。

†[Kjv]And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

†[Nkjv]And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

†[BBE]And a number of Jews had come to Martha and Mary to give them comfort about their brother.

†[GNT] and many Judeans had come to see Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother's death.

†[NIV]and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother.

本会注释　　安慰。安慰丧家被以色列人看为应当做的关爱工作。据信实行这种责任的人会得到丰盛的报偿，而忽视他们责任的人则会受到惩罚的警告。

约11:20 马大听见耶稣来了，就出去迎接他；马利亚却仍然坐在家里。 (串)路10:38,39

†[吕]马大一听说耶稣来了，就去迎接他；马利亚却仍然在家里坐着。

†[思]玛尔大一听说耶稣来了，便去迎接他；玛利亚仍坐在家。

†[当代]马大听说耶稣来了，就去迎接祂；马利亚却仍然坐在家里。

†[新译]马大听见耶稣来了，就去迎接他，马利亚却仍然坐在家里。

†[Wlb]马大闻耶稣至、出迓之、马利亚仍坐于室、

†[Xdv]马大听见耶稣来了，就出来迎接他；马利亚却留在家里。

†[Kjv]Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.

†[Nkjv]Now Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house.

†[BBE]When Martha had the news that Jesus was on the way, she went out to him, but Mary did not go from the house.

†[GNT] When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed in the house.

†[NIV]When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed at home.

本会注释　　马大听见……就。马大所反映出来的性格特点与路10:38-42中特别提到的相同。她易于冲动，精力充沛，而又忙于日常事务。而马利亚则是一个经常沉思默想的人，但她的心中充满了爱，“仍然坐在家里”。当马大出去迎接耶稣时祂还没有进村（见约11:30）。

约11:21 马大对耶稣说：“主啊，你若早在这里，我兄弟必不死。 (串)本章32|本章37

†[吕]马大对耶稣说：“主阿，你若在这里，我兄弟就不会死了。

†[思]玛尔大对耶稣说：“若是你在这，我的兄弟决不会死！

†[当代]马大对耶稣说：“主啊，你如果早在这里，我弟弟就不会死啦，

†[新译]马大对耶稣说：“主啊，如果你早在这里，我的兄弟就不会死了！

†[Wlb]马大谓耶稣曰、主若在此、我兄弟不死矣、

†[Xdv]马大对耶稣说：“主啊，要是你在这里，我的弟弟就不会死！

†[Kjv]Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

†[Nkjv]Now Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

†[BBE]Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not be dead.

†[GNT] Martha said to Jesus, "If you had been here, Lord, my brother would not have died!

†[NIV]Lord," Martha said to Jesus, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died.

本会注释　　你若早在这里。后来马利亚见到耶稣时（第32节）也说了同样的话。无疑这种情感自从她们兄弟死的那一刻起就时常压在这两个姐妹的心里。她们俩的判断是正确的（见第15节注释；见《历代愿望》528页）。

约11:22 就是现在，我也知道，你无论向上帝求什么，上帝也必赐给你。” (串)约9:31本章42

†[吕]就是如今，我也知道，凡你向上帝求的，上帝必给你。”

†[思]就是现在，我也知道：你无论向天主求什么，天主必要赐给你。”

†[当代]不过现在我也相信你无论向上帝求什么，上帝必定赐给你的。”

†[新译]就是现在，我也知道无论你向　神求什么，　神必赐给你。”

†[Wlb]今我知尔凡求于上帝者、莫不赐尔、

†[Xdv]但是我知道，甚至现在，你对上帝所求的，他一定赐给你。”

†[Kjv]But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.

†[Nkjv]But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You."

†[BBE]But I am certain that, even now, whatever request you make to God, God will give it to you.

†[GNT] But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask him for."

†[NIV]But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask."

本会注释　　你无论向上帝求什么。马大承认耶稣是上帝的儿子（第27节），并相信上帝总是垂听祂儿子的祈求。我们并不确定她在多大程度上保持着耶稣将使她兄弟复活的希望。无疑她曾听说过那个年轻女孩的复活（可5:35-43），也曾听说那个寡妇的儿子重得生命（路7:11-15）。她确信耶稣将会给她们带来一些安慰。

约11:23 耶稣说：“你兄弟必然复活。”

†[吕]耶稣对马大说：“你兄弟必复起的。”

†[思]耶稣对她说：“你的兄弟必定要复活。”

†[当代]“你弟弟会复活的。”

†[新译]耶稣对她说：“你的兄弟必会复活。”

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、尔兄弟将复起、

†[Xdv]耶稣告诉她：“你的弟弟一定会复活的。”

†[Kjv]Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

†[Nkjv]Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

†[BBE]Jesus said to her, Your brother will come to life again.

†[GNT] "Your brother will rise to life," Jesus told her.

†[NIV]Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

本会注释　　复活。尽管撒都该人否认复活（见@太22:23@注释），但两派中人数更多的法利赛人却大胆承认他们相信复活和来生（见徒23:8）。无疑他们中有很多人都用耶稣此刻所说的话来安慰马大。

约11:24 马大说：“我知道在末日复活的时候，他必复活。” (串)约6:39|赛26:19路14:14约5:29

†[吕]马大对耶稣说：“我知道在末日复活的时候，他是会复起的。”

†[思]玛尔大说：“我知道在末日复活时，他必要复活。”

†[当代]“我知道。”马大说：“到了末期，复活的时候他会复活的。”

†[新译]马大说：“我知道在末日复活的时候，他必会复活。”

†[Wlb]马大曰、我知末日复起时、彼亦复起、

†[Xdv]马大说：“我知道在末日他一定会复活。”

†[Kjv]Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

†[Nkjv]Martha said to Him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."

†[BBE]Martha said to him, I am certain that he will come to life again when all come back from the dead at the last day.

†[GNT] "I know," she replied, "that he will rise to life on the last day."

†[NIV]Martha answered, "I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."

本会注释　　在末日。马大对将来复活的信心是坚定的，这也帮助她减轻了当下的忧伤（参帖前4:13-18）。但是那一天似乎过于遥远了，她期待着有什么能够立即减轻她的悲伤（见22节注释）。

约11:25 耶稣对她说：“复活在我，生命也在我。信我的人虽然死了，也必复活， (串)约5:21;6:40,44林前15:20-22|约1:4;14:6西3:4约壹1:1,2;5:12

†[吕]耶稣对马大说：“我、就是复活，就是生命（有古卷无此语）。信我的人就使死了，也必活过来；

†[思]耶稣对她说：“我就是复活，就是生命；信从我的，即使死了，仍要活着；

†[当代]“复活在我，生命也在我！信我的人，虽然死了，也必复活！

†[新译]耶稣说：“我就是复活和生命；信我的人，虽然死了，也要活着。

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、复起者我也、生者亦我、信我者、虽死必生、

†[Xdv]耶稣说：“我就是复活，就是生命。信我的人，虽然死了，仍然要活着；

†[Kjv]Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

†[Nkjv]Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

†[BBE]Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;

†[GNT] Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will live, even though they die;

†[NIV]Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies;

本会注释　　复活在我。这是耶稣又一次说“复活在我”（参见约6:35,51；8:12；10:7,9,11,14；15:1,5）。耶稣在这里宣布祂自己是生命的赐予者。“在基督里有生命。这生命是祂自己本来就有的，不是借来的，也不是从别处得来”（《历代愿望》530页）。接受祂的就是接受生命（约一5:11,12），并且也可以确定自己将来复活进入永生（参林前15:51-55；帖前4:16等）。
　　信我的人。耶稣试图将人们的注意力从将来遥远的复活转移到自己身上。只有那些在自己尘世旅途中将信心建立在祂身上的人才能期待在那一天获得生命。在基督里面的信心是一件需要立即加以注意的事。
　　虽然死了。或“即使会死”。

约11:26 凡活着信我的人必永远不死。你信这话吗？” (串)约3:15,16,36|约6:51;8:51

†[吕]凡活着而信我的人、必定永远不死：你信这个么？”

†[思]凡活着而信从我的人，必永远不死。你信么？”

†[当代]凡没有死便信我的人，必永远不死。你相信吗？”

†[新译]所有活着又信我的人，必定永远不死，你信这话吗？”

†[Wlb]生而信我者、永不死、尔信斯乎、

†[Xdv]活着信我的人一定永远不死。你信这一切吗？”

†[Kjv]And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

†[Nkjv]And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

†[BBE]And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith?

†[GNT] and those who live and believe in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

†[NIV]and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

本会注释　　必永远不死。原文表达强烈的否定（见@约4:48@节注释）。这里明显是指着第二次的死说的，而不是每个人都要经历的人生旅途中那次生命的终止（见@约10:28@注释）。在约11:25中，“虽然死了”最好译为“即使会死”。第二次的死就是约3:16中的“灭亡”。那些住在耶稣里面并相信祂的人将免于这种经历（启20:6）。

约11:27 马大说：“主啊，是的，我信你是基督，是上帝的儿子，就是那要临到世界的。” (串)约6:69;20:31约壹5:1,5,13|太16:16约13:19|太11:3约6:14

†[吕]马大对耶稣说：“主阿，我信；你是基督、上帝的儿子、那要到世界上来的。”

†[思]她回答说：“是的，主，我信你是默西亚，天主子，要来到世界上的那一位。”

†[当代]“主啊，我信！我相信你就是救主基督，是上帝的儿子，也是我们盼望了很久，要到世界来的救世主。”

†[新译]她说：“主啊，我信；我已经信了，你是基督，是　神的儿子，是那要到世上来的。”

†[Wlb]马大曰、主、然也、我已信尔为基督、即上帝子、当入世者、

†[Xdv]马大回答：“主啊，是的！我信你就是那要到世上来的基督──上帝的儿子。”

†[Kjv]She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

†[Nkjv]She said to Him, "Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world."

†[BBE]She said to him, Yes, Lord: my faith is that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.

†[GNT] "Yes, Lord!" she answered. "I do believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

†[NIV]Yes, Lord," she told him, "I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

本会注释　　我信。马大再次重申她坚信耶稣就是弥赛亚，因此也就间接地承认了她相信耶稣刚才所说的话。
　　基督。见@太1:1@注释。
　　上帝的儿子。关于耶稣的这个称呼，见@路1:35@注释；见《约翰福音》第1章补充注释。
　　就是那要临到世界的。将这句话与太11:3；约1:9；3:31；6:14；9:39；16:28；18:37进行比较。

约11:28 马大说了这话，就回去暗暗的叫她妹子马利亚，说：“夫子来了，叫你。” (串)太26:18可14:14路22:11约13:13

†[吕]说了这话，就起身，去叫她才才马利亚，暗暗地说：“老师来了，叫你去呢。”

†[思]她说了这话，就去叫她的妹妹玛利亚，偷偷地说：“师傅来了，他叫你。”

†[当代]马大说完了，就悄悄地去告诉她的妹妹马利亚：“老师来了，祂叫你出去。”

†[新译]马大说了这些话，就回去暗暗地叫她妹妹马利亚，说：“老师来了，他叫你。”

†[Wlb]言竟、乃归、潜呼其姊妹马利亚曰、师至、呼尔、

†[Xdv]马大说了这话，就回家，轻声告诉妹妹马利亚说：“老师来了，他叫你。”

†[Kjv]And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

†[Nkjv]And when she had said these things, she went her way and secretly called Mary her sister, saying, "The Teacher has come and is calling for you."

†[BBE]And having said this, she went away and said secretly to her sister Mary, The Master is here and has sent for you.

†[GNT] After Martha said this, she went back and called her sister Mary privately. "The Teacher is here," she told her, "and is asking for you."

†[NIV]And after she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. "The Teacher is here," she said, "and is asking for you."

本会注释　　暗暗地。显然那些哭丧的人没有和马利亚一同往耶稣在的地方去，马利亚是单独去见他的。姐妹俩都知道犹太人要杀耶稣的阴谋，因此也就格外小心不让他们知道耶稣已在附近。或者，她们这样做是为了能够避免直接请祂前来（见第3节注释）。
　　夫子。didaskalos，字面意思是“老师”，是对耶稣常用的称呼（见约13:13；见@约1:38@注释）。

约11:29 马利亚听见了，就急忙起来，到耶稣那里去。

†[吕]马利亚一听见，就赶紧起来，向着耶稣那里走去。

†[思]玛利亚一听说，立时起身到耶稣那去了。

†[当代]马利亚立刻赶出村外，就在刚才她姐姐接耶稣的地方见祂。

†[新译]马利亚一听见，就急忙起来，到耶稣那里去。

†[Wlb]马利亚闻之、亟起就之、

†[Xdv]马利亚一听见这话，立刻起来，去见耶稣。

†[Kjv]As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.

†[Nkjv]As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came to Him.

†[BBE]And Mary, hearing this, got up quickly and went to him.

†[GNT] When Mary heard this, she got up and hurried out to meet him

†[NIV]When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.

本会注释　　急忙起来。这之前她一直坐在家里（第20节）。

约11:30 那时，耶稣还没有进村子，仍在马大迎接他的地方。

†[吕]［那时耶稣还没有进村子，是仍然在马大迎接他的地方。］

†[思]那时，耶稣还没有进村庄，仍在玛尔大迎接他的地方。

†[当代]－

†[新译]那时，耶稣还没有进入村子，仍然在马大迎接他的地方。

†[Wlb]时、耶稣未入村、犹在马大迓之之所、

†[Xdv]（当时耶稣还没有进村子，仍然在马大迎接他的地方。）

†[Kjv]Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.

†[Nkjv]Now Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in the place where Martha met Him.

†[BBE]Now Jesus had not at this time come into the town, but was still in the place where Martha had seen him.

†[GNT] (Jesus had not yet arrived in the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.)

†[NIV]Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him.

本会注释　　还没有进村子。无疑是因为犹太人的敌意（见第8节），还有就是祂想和这姐妹俩单独见面。

约11:31 那些同马利亚在家里安慰她的犹太人，见她急忙起来出去，就跟着她，以为她要往坟墓那里去哭。 (串)本章19

†[吕]当下那些同马利亚在家里抚慰她的犹太人见马利亚赶快地起来出去，就跟着她，以为她要上坟墓那里去哭呢。

†[思]那些同玛利亚在家，安慰他的犹太人，见她急忙起身出去，便跟着她，以为她往坟墓上去哭泣。

†[当代]那些在马利亚家里安慰她的犹太人，见她匆匆忙忙的跑了出去，以为她要到坟墓那里去哭，就跟著出去。

†[新译]那些在房子和马利亚在一起安慰她的犹太人，见她匆忙地起来出去，就跟着她，以为她要到坟墓那里去哭。

†[Wlb]偕马利亚在室、而唁之之犹太人、见其亟起而出、则从之、意其往墓而哭也、

†[Xdv]那些到家里安慰马利亚的犹太人看见她急忙起身出去，就跟着她，以为她要到坟墓去哭。

†[Kjv]The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.

†[Nkjv]Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, "She is going to the tomb to weep there."

†[BBE]Then the Jews who were with her in the house, comforting her, when they saw Mary get up quickly and go out, went after her in the belief that she was going to the place of the dead and would be weeping there.

†[GNT] The people who were in the house with Mary comforting her followed her when they saw her get up and hurry out. They thought that she was going to the grave to weep there.

†[NIV]When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.

本会注释　　就跟着她。这些犹太人跟随马利亚意义重大，因为他们必亲眼见证基督将要行的神迹。

约11:32 马利亚到了耶稣那里，看见他，就俯伏在他脚前，说：“主啊，你若早在这里，我兄弟必不死。” (串)本章21

†[吕]马利亚到了耶稣所在的地方，一看见耶稣，就俯伏在他脚前，对他说：“主阿，你若在这里，我兄弟就不会死了。”

†[思]当玛利亚来到耶稣所在的地方，一看见他，就俯伏在他脚前，向他说：“主！若是你在这，我的兄弟决不会死！”

†[当代]马利亚来到耶稣那里，就俯伏在祂脚前说：“主啊，你如果早在这里，我的弟弟就不会死了。”

†[新译]马利亚来到耶稣那里，一看见他，就俯伏在他脚前，说：“主啊，如果你早在这里，我的兄弟就不会死了！”

†[Wlb]马利亚至、见耶稣、伏其足下、曰、主若在此、我兄弟不死矣、

†[Xdv]马利亚来到耶稣那里，一看见他，就俯伏在他脚前，说：“主啊，要是你在这里，我的弟弟就不会死了！”

†[Kjv]Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

†[Nkjv]Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died."

†[BBE]When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she went down at his feet, saying, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not be dead.

†[GNT] Mary arrived where Jesus was, and as soon as she saw him, she fell at his feet. "Lord," she said, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died!"

†[NIV]When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

本会注释　　俯伏。马利亚的感情比她的姐姐更外露一些（参第20,21节）。
　　早在这里。马大也说过这句话（见第21节注释）。但是，耶稣与马利亚之间显然没有像刚才祂与马大之间那样的谈话。马利亚只是俯伏在耶稣脚前哀伤痛哭。或许她的感情已经不能用言语来表达了。

约11:33 耶稣看见她哭，并看见与她同来的犹太人也哭，就心里悲叹，又甚忧愁， (串)本章38|约12:27;13:21

†[吕]那是耶稣看见她哭，又看见跟她一同来的犹太人也哭，心灵上就悲愤叹息，大为震才，

†[思]耶稣看见她哭泣，还有同他一起来的犹太人也哭泣，便心神感伤，难过起来，

†[当代]耶稣看见她哭，那些陪她来的犹太人也哭，心中非常难过，

†[新译]耶稣看见她在哭，和她一同来的犹太人也在哭，就心里激动，难过起来，

†[Wlb]耶稣见其哭、又见偕来之犹太人亦哭、心恚而伤、

†[Xdv]耶稣看见马利亚哭，也看见跟她一起来的犹太人在哭，心里非常悲伤，深深地激动，

†[Kjv]When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled.

†[Nkjv]Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled.

†[BBE]And when Jesus saw her weeping, and saw the Jews weeping who came with her, his spirit was moved and he was troubled,

†[GNT] Jesus saw her weeping, and he saw how the people with her were weeping also; his heart was touched, and he was deeply moved.

†[NIV]When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.

本会注释　　犹太人也哭。马利亚和拉撒路那些亲密朋友的哀哭是情真意切的，但其他人的哀哭大多数都是敷衍了事，只是在葬礼上走走过场罢了。这里的“哭”字还在可5:39中出现，用以描述那些被雇佣来助哀之人装模作样的哭泣。
　　悲叹。embrimaomai，它的基本含义是“喘着气说”或“（愤怒地）哼”。该词在七十士译本的但11:30中表示恼恨。这层含义似乎在可14:5中也出现过。本节中另一个短语“又甚忧愁”（约11:33）与“悲叹”表达的意思相同。因此，embrimaomai描述的是一种烦恼的心情，强烈的情感，这里指义愤，无疑是因聚集的犹太人假冒为善的悲伤而引起的，他们中间的一些人很快就要定计划杀害那现在他们还为之哀哭的人，还要将基督置于死地（见《历代愿望》533，534页）。

约11:34 便说：“你们把他安放在哪里？”他们回答说：“请主来看。”

†[吕]说：“你们把他安放在哪里？”她们对耶稣说：“主阿，来看。”

†[思]遂说：“你们把他安放在那？”他们回答说：“主，你来，看罢！”

†[当代]就问他们：“你们把他葬在哪里？”“老师，请你来看。”

†[新译]说：“你们把他安放在哪里？”他们说：“主啊，请来看。”

†[Wlb]曰、葬于何处、曰、主来观之、

†[Xdv]就问他们：“你们把他葬在哪里？”他们回答：“主啊，请来看。”

†[Kjv]And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

†[Nkjv]And He said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to Him, "Lord, come and see."

†[BBE]And said, Where have you put him? They said, Come and see, Lord.

†[GNT] "Where have you buried him?" he asked them. "Come and see, Lord," they answered.

†[NIV]Where have you laid him?" he asked. "Come and see, Lord," they replied.

本会注释　　安放。tithēmi，该词通常用来指尸体的安放（见约19:41,42；20:2,13,15），意思大体上等同于“埋葬”。

约11:35 耶稣哭了。 (串)路19:41

†[吕]耶稣流泪哭了。

†[思]耶稣流泪了。

†[当代]耶稣哭了。

†[新译]耶稣哭了。

†[Wlb]耶稣泣焉、

†[Xdv]耶稣哭了。

†[Kjv]Jesus wept.

†[Nkjv]Jesus wept.

†[BBE]And Jesus himself was weeping.

†[GNT] Jesus wept.

†[NIV]Jesus wept.

本会注释　　哭了。dakruō，“落泪”。该词在《新约》中只出现在这里。在七十士译本里，它出现在伯3:24；结27:35；弥2:6中。在约11:33中表示“哭”的词是klaiō，这个词不仅表示较为克制的哭泣，还可以表示礼节性的哀哭（见第33节注释）。然而Klaiō在路19:41中却是另一种含义。
　　耶稣对人类的忧伤感同身受，与悲哀的人一同哭泣。“所以，祂凡事该与祂的弟兄相同”（来2:17）。因为祂也具有人性，所以“就能搭救被试探的人”（来2:18）。关于耶稣的人性，见@路2:52@；@约1:14@注释。关于耶稣流泪的原因，见《历代愿望》533，534页。

约11:36 犹太人就说：“你看他爱这人是何等恳切。” (串)本章3

†[吕]于是犹太人说：“你看，他多么爱他呀！”

†[思]于是犹太人说：“看，他多么爱他啊！”

†[当代]于是犹太人说：“你看！祂是多么爱他啊！”

†[新译]于是犹太人说：“你看，他多么爱这个人！”

†[Wlb]犹太人曰、其爱斯人何如也、

†[Xdv]因此犹太人说：“你看，他多么爱这个人！”

†[Kjv]Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

†[Nkjv]Then the Jews said, "See how He loved him!"

†[BBE]So the Jews said, See how dear he was to him!

†[GNT] "See how much he loved him!" the people said.

†[NIV]Then the Jews said, "See how he loved him!"

本会注释　　爱。phileō（见第3,5节注释）。

约11:37 其中有人说：“他既然开了瞎子的眼睛，岂不能叫这人不死吗？” (串)约9:6,7|本章4,21,32

†[吕]其中有人说：“这个人、开了瞎子眼睛的、岂不能叫这人也不死么？”

†[思]其中有些人说：“这个开了瞎子眼睛的，岂不能使这人也不死么？”

†[当代]其中也有人说：“祂既然能医好瞎眼的人，为什么不能叫这个人不死呢？”

†[新译]他们中间有人说：“他既然开了瞎子的眼睛，难道不能使这个人不死吗？”

†[Wlb]或曰、彼曾启瞽者之目、不能使斯人不死乎、

†[Xdv]有些人却说：“他开过盲人的眼睛，难道他不能使拉撒路不死吗？”

†[Kjv]And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

†[Nkjv]And some of them said, "Could not this Man, who opened the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?"

†[BBE]But some of them said, This man, who made open the eyes of the blind man, was he not able to keep his friend from death?

†[GNT] But some of them said, "He gave sight to the blind man, didn't he? Could he not have kept Lazarus from dying?"

†[NIV]But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?"

本会注释　　岂不能……。表面上看，犹太人这句话似乎和马大与马利亚的想法相同，即，如果主在这里，拉撒路就不会死了（第21,32节）。然而，结合上下文（见第38节注释），很自然我们便可看出，他们所表达的其实是讥诮和怀疑，甚至就是嘲笑：“如果祂真是他所宣称之神迹的施行者，那祂一定能为祂这些最亲密的朋友做点什么。”他们话中的含义是，拉撒路的死证明耶稣根本没有使那个瞎子复明。

约11:38 耶稣又心里悲叹，来到坟墓前；那坟墓是个洞，有一块石头挡着。 (串)本章33|赛22:16|太27:60可15:46

†[吕]于是耶稣心里又悲愤叹息，来到坟墓前。那坟墓是个洞，有块石头挡住。

†[思]耶稣心中又感伤起来，来到坟墓前。这坟墓是个洞穴，前面有一块石头堵着。

†[当代]耶稣伤感地来到墓地。那是个山洞式的坟墓，洞口有一块大石头堵住。

†[新译]耶稣又再心里激动，来到坟墓前面。那坟墓是一个洞穴，洞口有块石头堵住。

†[Wlb]耶稣复恚于衷、至墓、墓乃洞、上置石焉、

†[Xdv]耶稣心里又非常悲伤。他来到坟墓前；那坟墓是一个洞穴，入口的地方有一块石头堵住。

†[Kjv]Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

†[Nkjv]Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

†[BBE]So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.

†[GNT] Deeply moved once more, Jesus went to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone placed at the entrance.

†[NIV]Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.

本会注释　　悲叹。见第33节注释。一部分犹太人的不信（见第37节）使主心里难受。
　　坟墓。mnēmeion，直译是“一个纪念物”，来源于动词mnēmoneuō（“纪念”），mnēmeion通常表示对死者的纪念，但更多的是指坟墓或墓室本身（可16:5等）。
　　洞。在巴勒斯坦地区，一些自然的洞穴经过进一步开凿加工，往往作为埋葬死人的地方（参创23:19；赛22:16）。《密西拿》描述了一个典型的家族墓穴：“洞穴的中央位置必须有六肘宽八肘长。在这片区域的四面岩石上要开凿十三个孔穴，两边各四个，入口的对面岩壁上三个，入口的左右各一个。在洞穴入口外面要修出一个六（肘）见方的小院，让送葬的人站脚并放置抬尸架。两个洞穴要与这个小院连通，一边一个”（Baba Bathra 6. 8，《塔木德》松奇诺版第421,422页）。考古发掘显示，进入洞穴的通道一般都是水平的。
　　石头。这些石头通常是圆形的，方便滚动，封住墓穴的口。通常会有一块支撑的石头加圆球形的石头（见《密西拿》Oholoth 2. 4，《塔木德》松奇诺版第156页）。

约11:39 耶稣说：“你们把石头挪开。”那死人的姐姐马大对他说：“主啊，他现在必是臭了，因为他死了已经四天了。” (串)太28:2可16:3路24:2约20:1|本章17

†[吕]耶稣说：“把石头挪开。”死者的姐姐马大对耶稣说：“主阿，已经臭了；有四天了。”

†[思]耶稣说：“挪开这块石头！”死者的姊姊玛尔大向他说：“主！已经臭了，因为已有四天了。”

†[当代]耶稣说：“把石头挪开。”“主啊，他已经死了四天，尸首都臭了。”死者的姐姐马大阻拦他们。

†[新译]耶稣说：“把这块石头挪开！”死者的姊姊马大对他说：“主啊，已经四天了，他必定臭了。”

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、去其石、死者之姊妹马大曰、主、今已臭矣、盖四日也、

†[Xdv]耶稣吩咐：“把石头挪开！”死者的姊姊马大说：“主啊，他已经葬了四天，尸体都发臭了！”

†[Kjv]Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.

†[Nkjv]Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."

†[BBE]Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said, Lord, by this time the body will be smelling, for he has been dead four days.

†[GNT] "Take the stone away!" Jesus ordered. Martha, the dead man's sister, answered, "There will be a bad smell, Lord. He has been buried four days!"

†[NIV]Take away the stone," he said. "But, Lord," said Martha, the sister of the dead man, "by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days."

本会注释　　你们把石头挪开。耶稣能用神迹将石头挪开，但这项工作却是人手可以完成的。人要与上帝合作，不应该期望上帝为他们去做那些他们能够自己作到的事情（见本卷注释第209页）。
　　他现在必是臭了。马大这句冲动的话语显示出她信心的软弱，没能领会第23-26节中所暗示的全部意义（见第22节注释）。她的反应向犹太人证实，这里面并没有骗局，拉撒路的确是死了。马大担心尸体已经发臭，暗示着拉撒路的遗体并没有经过香熏，尽管第44节显示他的遗体是经过一番仔细打理才下葬的。
　　四天。公元三世纪时犹太人的传统或许能反映出耶稣时代人们的一些信念，这种传统说法是，三天之内人的灵魂会返回到自己的身体那里希望能再次进入。在三天临近末了的时候，如果灵魂看到身体的面容已经变形，那它就会离开，永远不再回来。因此，连续三天，亲人们都会来坟墓观看，希望那里面的人可能只是昏厥，而不是真的死了。但到了第四天头上，人们对于真正的死亡就不会再有任何怀疑了。如果这些传统说法在耶稣的时代就已流行的话，那这里提到的第四天就是拉撒路已经真正死亡的确凿证据了。耶稣将祂的来到推迟到第四天，或许也是考虑到了这个流行的观念。

约11:40 耶稣说：“我不是对你说过，你若信，就必看见上帝的荣耀吗？” (串)本章25,26|本章4罗6:4

†[吕]耶稣对她说：“我不是对你说过，你若信，就会看见上帝的荣耀么？”

†[思]耶稣对她说：“我不是告诉过你：如果你信，会看到天主的光荣吗？”

†[当代]“我不是跟你说过，只要你信，就会看见上帝的荣耀吗？”

†[新译]耶稣说：“我不是对你说过‘如果你信，就必定看见　神的荣耀’吗？”

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、我不语汝云、尔若信、将见上帝之荣乎、

†[Xdv]耶稣对她说：“我不是对你说过，要是你信，会看见上帝的荣耀吗？”

†[Kjv]Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

†[Nkjv]Jesus said to her, "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?"

†[BBE]Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?

†[GNT] Jesus said to her, "Didn't I tell you that you would see God's glory if you believed?"

†[NIV]Then Jesus said, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?"

本会注释　　我不是对你说过……。“你若信，就必看见上帝的荣耀”，在第21-27节中并没有发现这句话的原话，但拿这几节与耶稣头一次听到拉撒路病情时所说的话（第4节；参《历代愿望》526页）进行比较，就会发现其中暗示着这层意思。

约11:41 他们就把石头挪开。耶稣举目望天，说：“父啊，我感谢你，因为你已经听我。 (串)约17:1

†[吕]他们就把石头挪开。耶稣举目向上说：‘父阿，我感谢你，因为你听了我。

†[思]他们便挪开了石头；耶稣举目向上说：“父啊！我感谢你，因为你俯听了我。

†[当代]于是他们把石头挪开，耶稣望著天说：“父啊，我感谢你，因为你已垂听了我的祷告，而且，

†[新译]于是他们把石头挪开。耶稣举目向天，说：“父啊，我感谢你，因为你垂听了我，

†[Wlb]众遂去石、耶稣仰目曰、父欤、尔既听我、我谢尔、

†[Xdv]于是他们把石头挪开。耶稣举目望天，说：“父亲哪，我感谢你，因为你已经垂听了我。

†[Kjv]Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

†[Nkjv]Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

†[BBE]So they took away the stone. And Jesus, looking up to heaven, said, Father, I give praise to you for hearing me.

†[GNT] They took the stone away. Jesus looked up and said, "I thank you, Father, that you listen to me.

†[NIV]So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, "Father, I thank you that you have heard me.

本会注释　　石头。见第38节注释。
　　举目望天。这是耶稣祷告时常用的一个姿态（参可6:41；约17:1）。很少提到人采用这个姿势。至少根据可能反映了较早时期习惯的公元2世纪的传统说法，人们在祷告时眼睛更多地是朝向圣殿的方向（比如见《密西拿》Berakoth 4. 5，《塔木德》松奇诺版第174页）。
　　父啊。这是耶稣习惯性的祷告用语（见路22:42；约12:27；17:1,11,25）。在主祷文（主的祷告）中耶稣教导祂的跟从者这样称呼上帝（见@太6:9@节注释）。
　　你已经听我。耶稣与祂的父之间有不断的交流。耶稣生活中发生的事都与祂离开天庭之前所制订的计划相符合（见@路2:49@注释）。要实现这个计划，必须要求基督的神性有一次最高的彰显。耶稣的祷告是非常简单的，与那些术士冗长的咒语形成了鲜明的对比。耶稣没有求什么，只是表达对天父的感谢，但是这已明显说明子与父的旨意完全和谐。

约11:42 我也知道你常听我，但我说这话是为周围站着的众人，叫他们信是你差了我来。” (串)约12:30|约3:17;17:8,21

†[吕]我本知道你时常听我；但是为了周围站着的群众、我才说话，叫他们相信是你差遣了我。”

†[思]我本来知道你常常俯听我，但是我说这话，是为了四周站立的群众，好叫他们信是你派遣了我。”

†[当代]我知道你常常垂听。现在为了周围站著的人的缘故，我才这样说，好叫他们相信是你差我来的。”

†[新译]我知道你常常听我，但我说这话，是为了周围站着的群众，叫他们信是你差了我来。”

†[Wlb]我知尔恒听我、但我言此、乃为环立之众、俾其信尔遣我也、

†[Xdv]我知道你时常垂听我；但是我说这话是为了周围这些人，为要使他们信是你差遣我来的。”

†[Kjv]And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

†[Nkjv]And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me."

†[BBE]I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.

†[GNT] I know that you always listen to me, but I say this for the sake of the people here, so that they will believe that you sent me."

†[NIV]I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me."

本会注释　　是为……众人。耶稣行此神迹之前的祷告是为了众人的益处。拿因寡妇儿子的复活（路7:11-17）发生在加利利一个偏僻的小乡镇里。睚鲁女儿的复活（路8:41-56）发生在一间与外界隔离的卧室里，只有少数的亲人在场。此外，睚鲁的女儿复活时才死不久（见39节注释）。但现在这个神迹是在光天化日之下施行的，朋友、敌人都会亲眼见证，不会给人以任何怀疑的理由。法利赛人曾控告耶稣是靠着鬼王赶鬼（太12:24）。耶稣公开承认祂与父的联合，并宣称，若没有父，祂就不能做什么（见约5:19-30；7:28,29）。现在祂宣布，祂的目的是让“他们信是你差了我来”。

约11:43 说了这话，就大声呼叫说：“拉撒路出来！” (串)约5:25|结37:12约5:28

†[吕]说了这些话，就大声嚷着说：“拉撒路，出来！”

†[思]说完这话，便大声喊说：“拉匝禄！出来罢！”

†[当代]说完了，就大声呼喊：“拉撒路，出来！”

†[新译]说了这话，就大声呼喊：“拉撒路，出来！”

†[Wlb]言毕、大声呼曰、拉撒路出、

†[Xdv]说完这话，他就大声喊：“拉撒路，出来！”

†[Kjv]And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

†[Nkjv]Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!"

†[BBE]Then he said in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out!

†[GNT] After he had said this, he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

†[NIV]When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

本会注释　　大声。phōnē megalē。这两个希腊单词合在一起还出现在太24:31；可15:34,37；启1:10节中。
　　呼叫。kraugazō，“大声呼喊”。这个动词还出现在《新约》的太12:19；15:22；约18:40；19:6,15；徒22:23中。
　　拉撒路。耶稣呼喊拉撒路像叫一个熟悉的朋友从睡梦中醒来。
　　出来。deuro exō。Deuro，意思是“到此处，往这里，”有“来”的意思，它在太19:21；可10:21；徒7:34等节中就是这样翻译的。Exō的意思是“向外”。
　　整个的叙述没有哪一点暗示说拉撒路的灵魂在他死时离开了他的身体升到了天上。如果情况是那样，耶稣对之说话的就不是拉撒路无生命的尸体，而是一个有意识的魂灵了。祂就会这样说，“拉撒路，下来，重新在你肉体里面活着。”但事实上，他和大卫一样，“并没有升到天上”（徒2:34）。过去的这四天对拉撒路来说是被遗忘和无意识的四天（见诗146:4）。人如果想问拉撒路，你的灵魂死后去了哪里，经历了些什么，那他们注定是要失望的，因为拉撒路什么也不能告诉他们。

约11:44 那死人就出来了，手脚裹着布，脸上包着手巾。耶稣对他们说，“解开，叫他走！” (串)约19:40|约20:7

†[吕]那死了的人就出来，脚和手绑着布条，脸上包着布巾。耶稣对他们说：“给他解开，放他走。”

†[思]死者便出来了，脚和手都缠着布条，面上还蒙着汗巾。耶稣向他们说：“解开他，让他行走罢。”

†[当代]那个死人就出来了，手脚都缠著布，脸上也用布包著。耶稣说：“解开他，让他走！”

†[新译]那死了的人就出来，他的手脚都缠着布，脸上裹着巾。耶稣说：“解开他，让他走！”

†[Wlb]死者即出、手足束布、面裹巾、耶稣谓众曰、解之使行、

†[Xdv]那死了的人就出来；他的手脚裹着布条，脸上也包着布。耶稣吩咐他们说：“解开他，让他走！”

†[Kjv]And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

†[Nkjv]And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go."

†[BBE]And he who was dead came out, with linen bands folded tightly about his hands and feet, and a cloth about his face. Jesus said to them, Make him free and let him go.

†[GNT] He came out, his hands and feet wrapped in grave cloths, and with a cloth around his face. "Untie him," Jesus told them, "and let him go."

†[NIV]The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, "Take off the grave clothes and let him go."

本会注释　　手脚。人们对于拉撒路在当时的情况下如何活动有相当多的猜测。但显然他的活动是受到阻碍了，因为耶稣吩咐把他身上的布解开（参见《历代愿望》536页）。
　　布。keiriai，“绷带，布条”。《密西拿》说是“一具尸体”，以及它的“棺材和寿衣”（Shabbath 23. 4，《塔木德》松奇诺版第769页）。参约19:40。
　　手巾。soudarion，来自拉丁文的sudarium，直译是“一块擦汗的布。”该词还用在路19:20；约20:7；徒19:12中。

约11:45 那些来看马利亚的犹太人见了耶稣所做的事，就多有信他的； (串)本章19|约2:23;12:11徒9:42

†[吕]那些来看马利亚的犹太人、见了耶稣所作的事，就有许多信了他的。

†[思]那些来到玛利亚那的犹太人，一看到耶稣所行的事，就有许多人信了他

†[当代]来慰问马利亚的犹太人，看见耶稣所行的事，多半都信了祂，

†[新译]有许多到马利亚那里去的犹太人，看见了耶稣所作的事，就信了他。

†[Wlb]就马利亚之犹太人、见耶稣所行、多信之、

†[Xdv]许多来探访马利亚的犹太人看见耶稣所做的事，就信了他。

†[Kjv]Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

†[Nkjv]Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.

†[BBE]Then a number of the Jews who had come to Mary and had seen the things which Jesus did had belief in him.

†[GNT] Many of the people who had come to visit Mary saw what Jesus did, and they believed in him.

†[NIV]Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, put their faith in him.

本会注释　　信祂。这一神迹完全超出了人们的想象，在许多人心中达到了它应有的目的（见第42节；参见约2:23；7:31）。人们的反应一定给耶稣和他的门徒带来了鼓励。

约11:46 但其中也有去见法利赛人的，将耶稣所做的事告诉他们。

†[吕]但其中也有人往法利赛人那里去，将耶稣所作的事告诉他们。

†[思]他们中也有一些到法利塞人那去，把耶稣所行的，报告给他们。

†[当代]也有些人到法利赛人那里去，把耶稣所行的事告诉他们。

†[新译]但他们中间有些人到法利赛人那里去，把耶稣所作的事都告诉他们。

†[Wlb]但有以其所行、往告法利赛人者、

†[Xdv]但也有些人回去见法利赛人，把耶稣所做的事向他们报告。

†[Kjv]But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.

†[Nkjv]But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them the things Jesus did.

†[GNT] But some of them returned to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

†[NIV]But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

本会注释　　[ 退到以法莲：约11:46-57。见本卷注释223页地图]。
　　去见法利赛人。见本卷注释第51页。那些报信的人显然有一部分是探子。他们昼夜不停地跟踪并监视耶稣的言行。其他一些报信的人可能只是觉得这件事太重大了，应该引起宗教领袖们的注意。后者或许是期待着宗教领袖能够告诉他们这件事与自己有什么关系。

约11:47 祭司长和法利赛人聚集公会，说：“这人行好些神迹，我们怎么办呢？ (串)太26:3徒4:26,27|太5:22;26:59可14:55;15:1路22:66徒5:34|徒4:16

†[思]因此，司祭长和法利塞人召集了会议说：“这人行了许多奇迹，我们怎么办呢？

†[当代]因此，祭司长和法利赛人便召开会议，说：“这人行了这么多的神迹，我们该怎么办呢？

†[新译]于是祭司长和法利赛人召开公议会，说：“这个人行了许多神迹，我们怎么办呢？

†[Wlb]于是祭司诸长与法利赛人集会曰、斯人多行异迹、我侪若何、

†[Xdv]因此，法利赛人和祭司长们召开议会，在会上说：“这个人行了这许多神迹，我们该怎么办呢？

†[Kjv]Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.

†[Nkjv]Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, "What shall we do? For this Man works many signs.

†[BBE]Then the high priests and the Pharisees had a meeting and said, What are we doing? This man is doing a number of signs.

†[GNT] So the Pharisees and the chief priests met with the Council and said, "What shall we do? Look at all the miracles this man is performing!

†[NIV]Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the Sanhedrin. "What are we accomplishing?" they asked. "Here is this man performing many miraculous signs.

本会注释　　祭司长。这些人大部分是撒都该人（见第52页）。撒都该人否认复活的可能（太22:23；徒23:8）。他们因自己的主要理论之一这么轻易地被证明为错误而大大苦恼困扰。他们现在与法利赛人在公开敌对耶稣的事上联合了起来。事实上，祭司长在对耶稣的逮捕、审判和定罪上起了主导性的作用（见太20:18；21:15,23,45；26:3等）。
　　法利赛人。见第51页。
　　公会。sunedrion，来源于sun（“一起，共同”）和hedra（“座位”），译成英语就是“Sanhedrin（公会）”。关于这个议会，见本卷注释第67页。
　　我们怎么办呢。他们感觉事情已经到了一个紧急的关头，再也不允许有任何的拖延。反对的人变成相信者，敌人变成朋友，甚至连他们内部都有人对耶稣深信不疑。他们对百姓的影响力正在迅速消失。

约11:48 若这样由着他，人人都要信他，罗马人也要来夺我们的地土和我们的百姓。”

†[吕]若由着他这样，众人都会信他，罗马人就会来，连我们的圣地带我们民族（或译：国家）都夺取了去阿。”

†[思]如果让他这样，众都会信从，罗马人必要来，连我们的圣殿和民族都除掉。”

†[当代]如果让祂这样继续下去，恐怕每个人都要相信祂了，那么，罗马人一定会来夺我们的土地，掳我们的人民。”

†[新译]我们若让他这样，所有的人都会信他，罗马人就会来，夺取我们的圣地，除灭我们的民族。”

†[Wlb]若容其如是、众将信之、罗马人必至、夺我土地人民矣、

†[Xdv]如果我们让他这样搞下去，大家都信了他，罗马人会来掳掠我们的圣殿和民族的！”

†[Kjv]If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.

†[Nkjv]If we let Him alone like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation."

†[BBE]If we let him go on in this way, everybody will have belief in him and the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation.

†[GNT] If we let him go on in this way, everyone will believe in him, and the Roman authorities will take action and destroy our Temple and our nation!"

†[NIV]If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation."

本会注释　　罗马人也要来。具有讽刺意味的是，当这卷书写成的时候（见本卷注释第179页），罗马人所做的，正是这里人们所怕的，见本卷注释73-77页。但却是出于不同的原因。如果耶稣真是犹太人所期望的政治上的拯救者，那么任何企图将祂推上王位的举动都会招致罗马人迅速的报复和残酷的镇压。但是耶稣从没有主张过祂是一个民族的拯救者。当百姓想要强迫祂作王时，祂只是将他们遣散并从他们的视野中退出（约6:15）。
　　我们的地土。可能是指圣殿（见耶7:15；《马加比下》5:19）或在更大的意义上指耶路撒冷。
　　百姓。除了任命一名罗马巡抚（见本卷注释第66页）以及在圣殿山上一座罗马的安东尼要塞（见本卷注释225页地图）之外，犹太人在处理他们地方性的事务上拥有相当大的自由权。他们现在面临着失去这种自由的危险，并且在四十年后真的失去了。

　　本年。这并不代表大祭司的任期只有一年。古代的大祭司的任期是终生制的，但在罗马的统治下，大祭司会卸任，新的祭司会接续他的职位。该亚法的任期是从公元18年到36年（见@路3:1@注释）。这里的“本年”明显就是我们主被钉十字架的那年。

约11:50 独不想一个人替百姓死，免得通国灭亡，就是你们的益处。” (串)约18:14

†[吕]也不想想、一个人替人民死，免得全民族都灭亡：这是你们有益的阿。”

†[思]也不想想：叫一个人替百姓死，以免全民族灭亡；这为你们多么有利。”

†[当代]为什么不想想让祂一个人替所有的人民死，挽救整个国家，不是对你们有利吗？”

†[新译]也不去想想，一个人代替人民死，免得整个民族灭亡，这对你们是有益的。”

†[Wlb]独不思一人为众死、俾举国弗亡、乃尔曹之益也、

†[Xdv]让一个人替全民死，免得整个民族被消灭。难道你们看不出这对你们是一件合算的事吗？”

†[Kjv]Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

†[Nkjv]nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish."

†[BBE]You do not see that it is in your interest for one man to be put to death for the people, so that all the nation may not come to destruction.

†[GNT] Don't you realize that it is better for you to have one man die for the people, instead of having the whole nation destroyed?"

†[NIV]You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish."

本会注释　　一个人替百姓死。这种原则在拉比的文学作品中得到了证实。《米德拉西拉巴》创43:8注释（《塔木德》松奇诺版第846页）说，“一个人的生命冒风险胜过所有的人注定（去死）”。《米德拉西》说，“‘你一个人被处死强过全体成员因为你而受刑罚’。”该亚法的意思是，即便耶稣是无罪的，但为了以色列整体的利益也最好把祂除去。

约11:51 他这话不是出于自己，是因他本年作大祭司，所以预言耶稣将要替这一国死； (串)本章49|民27:21撒上23:9;30:7拉2:63尼7:65

†[吕]这话他不是凭着自己说的，是因为那年他做大祭司，所以豫言耶稣将要替民族死；

†[思]这话不是由他自己说出的，只因他是那年的大司祭，才预言了耶稣将为民族而死；

†[当代]这句话不是他自己要讲的，乃是不由自主地说的；因他是当年的大祭司，所以上帝藉著他预言耶稣将要替所有的人民死。

†[新译]他说这话不是由于自己，而是因为他是那年的大祭司，所以预言耶稣要替犹太民族死；

†[Wlb]其言非由乎己、乃是年适为大祭司、豫言耶稣将为斯民死也、

†[Xdv]其实，这话不是出于他自己；只因他是当年的大祭司，他在预言耶稣要替犹太人死，

†[Kjv]And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;

†[Nkjv]Now this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

†[BBE]He did not say this of himself, but being the high priest that year he said, as a prophet, that Jesus would be put to death for the nation;

†[GNT] Actually, he did not say this of his own accord; rather, as he was High Priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus was going to die for the Jewish people,

†[NIV]He did not say this on his own, but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the Jewish nation,

怀爱伦注释　　（约18:14）该亚法无意地说了预言──［引约11:50.51］这些话乃是出自一个不懂词义之人的口，他已经失去对于牺牲和献祭之神圣的认识，但是他说此话的意义乃比他和他的同伴所明白的更深。他藉着这些话，是见证亚伦的祭司职位将要永远止息。他是在把那以每一祭牲所预言的一位定了罪，然而祂的死必要结束了那所必须的预表与影儿，该亚法无意地宣布了基督将要完成那所制定的牺牲与献祭的制度。（《评论与通讯》1900.6.12）
本会注释　　不是出于自己。该亚法的确是知道预言，但他却不了解其中真正的含义。他所关心的是如何保持自己的权利以及犹太人国家生活的继续。但尽管如此，他的话还是清楚地预言了耶稣将要做的事。耶稣是要死去，但具有讽刺意味的是，该亚法希望从解体的危险中拯救的国家却悲惨地灭亡了。

约11:52 也不但替这一国死，并要将上帝四散的子民都聚集归一。 (串)约壹2:2|赛49:6约10:16启5:9

†[吕]不单替民族死，并且要将上帝四散的儿女都聚集归一呢。

†[思]不但为犹太民族，而且也是为使那四散的天主的儿女都聚集归一。

†[当代]同时，祂不单是要替所有的人民死，也要把散居各处上帝的儿女，集合起来，归在一起。

†[新译]不但替犹太民族死，也要把散居各地的　神的儿女招聚成为一体。

†[Wlb]且不祇为斯民、又使上帝散处之子民、会归于一也、

†[Xdv]不但替他们死，也要把分散各地的上帝的儿女都召集在一起，合成一群。

†[Kjv]And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.

†[Nkjv]and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

†[BBE]And not for that nation only, but for the purpose of uniting in one body the children of God all over the world.

†[GNT] and not only for them, but also to bring together into one body all the scattered people of God.

†[NIV]and not only for that nation but also for the scattered children of God, to bring them together and make them one.

本会注释　　也不但替这一国死。这是约翰加的一句评论。该亚法只提到了犹太这个民族，但耶稣是要为万民死的，凡是接受祂的就在信徒的大团体里合为一体（弗2:11-22）。这些都是好牧人将要聚拢来的“另外的羊”（约10:16）。

约11:53 从那日起，他们就商议要杀耶稣。 (串)太26:4约7:1

†[吕]从那一天，他们就定意要杀耶稣。

†[思]从那一天起，他们就议决要杀害耶稣。

†[当代]从那天起，他们就计划杀害耶稣，

†[新译]从那天起，他们就想杀害耶稣。

†[Wlb]自是而后、众议杀之、

†[Xdv]从那时候开始，犹太人的领袖们计划杀害耶稣。

†[Kjv]Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.

†[Nkjv]Then, from that day on, they plotted to put Him to death.

†[BBE]And from that day they took thought together how to put him to death.

†[GNT] From that day on the Jewish authorities made plans to kill Jesus.

†[NIV]So from that day on they plotted to take his life.

本会注释　　商议。公会正式同意，要将耶稣置于死地。他们剩下要做的就是如何实现这一计划而又不激起百姓的骚乱。他们从前曾想过要取耶稣的性命（约5:18；等等），但现在拉撒路的复活将这件事推上了一个危急的关头。该亚法说不必管耶稣是否有罪（见第50节注释），他的这种建议似乎正是公会成员们所期待的解决方法。

约11:54 所以，耶稣不再显然行在犹太人中间，就离开那里往靠近旷野的地方去，到了一座城，名叫以法莲，就在那里和门徒同住。 (串)约7:4

†[吕]因此耶稣不再公开在犹太人中间往来，却离开那里、往靠近旷野的地区去，到了一座城叫以法莲，就在那里同门徒住下。

†[思]因此，耶稣不再公开地在犹太人中往来，却从那往临近荒野的地方去，来到一座名叫厄弗辣因的城，在那里和他的门徒住下了。

†[当代]所以耶稣不再公开在犹太人中间往来。祂离开伯大尼，往靠近荒野的地方去，到了以法莲城，就和门徒住下来。

†[新译]因此，耶稣不再在犹太人中间公开活动，却离开那里，到旷野附近的地方去；到了一座名叫以法莲的城，就和门徒住在那里。

†[Wlb]故耶稣不复显行于犹太人中、去彼而往近野之地、至一邑、名以法莲、偕门徒居之、

†[Xdv]因此耶稣不在犹太地区公开活动。他到一个靠近旷野、叫以法莲的市镇去，在那里跟门徒住在一起。

†[Kjv]Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.

†[Nkjv]Therefore Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there remained with His disciples.

†[BBE]So Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near to the waste land, to a town named Ephraim, where he was for some time with the disciples.

†[GNT] So Jesus did not travel openly in Judea, but left and went to a place near the desert, to a town named Ephraim, where he stayed with the disciples.

†[NIV]Therefore Jesus no longer moved about publicly among the Jews. Instead he withdrew to a region near the desert, to a village called Ephraim, where he stayed with his disciples.

本会注释　　以法莲。通常认为就是现在的et-Taiyibeh，位于伯特利东北6.4公里处（见撒下13:23；代下13:19；约瑟弗斯《犹太战争史》第四卷9. 9 [551页]）。这个地方靠近延伸到约旦河谷的旷野。

约11:55 犹太人的逾越节近了，有许多人从乡下上耶路撒冷去，要在节前洁净自己。 (串)约6:4|路2:41,42|代下30:17-19徒21:24

†[吕]犹太人的逾越节近了；逾越节以前，有许多人从乡下上耶路撒冷，要行礼使自己清洁。

†[思]犹太人的逾越节临近了，所以，许多人在逾越节前，从乡间上了耶路撒冷，要圣洁自己。

†[当代]犹太人的逾越节快到了，有很多人从乡下来到耶路撒冷，预备在节前洁净自己。

†[新译]犹太人的逾越节快到了，有许多人在过节前从各乡上耶路撒冷去，要在那里洁净自己。

†[Wlb]犹太人逾越节伊迩、多有自乡上耶路撒冷者、于节前自洁也、

†[Xdv]犹太人的逾越节快到了。节期以前，许多人从乡下上耶路撒冷去，要在那里守洁净礼。

†[Kjv]And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.

†[Nkjv]And the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went from the country up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

†[BBE]Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and numbers of people went up from the country to Jerusalem to make themselves clean before the Passover.

†[GNT] The time for the Passover Festival was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem to perform the ritual of purification before the festival.

†[NIV]When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, many went up from the country to Jerusalem for their ceremonial cleansing before the Passover.

本会注释　　犹太人的逾越节。如果将@约5:1@节中那次没有提名的节期（见该处注释）算作逾越节的话，这次是约翰提到的第四个逾越节了（见本卷注释第193,247页；229页图表）。
　　乡下。尽管犹太人从世界各地赶来过逾越节，但这里大致是指巴勒斯坦地区。
　　洁净自己。关于吃逾越节宴席前礼节性洁净的要求，见@代下30:17-20@注释；参民9:10。祭司们在审判耶稣时拒绝进罗马人的衙门，就是为了不受污秽，免得不能吃逾越节的宴席（约18:28）。

约11:56 他们就寻找耶稣，站在殿里彼此说：“你们的意思如何，他不来过节吗？” (串)约7:11

†[吕]他们直寻找耶稣，在殿里站着的时候直彼此说：“你们以为怎样阿？他决不来过节么？”

†[思]他们就寻找耶稣，并站在圣殿内，彼此谈论说：“你们想什么？他来不来过节呢？”

†[当代]他们四处寻找耶稣，又彼此在圣殿里谈论：“你认为怎么样？祂会来过节吗？”

†[新译]他们到处找寻耶稣，站在圣殿里的时候，彼此说：“你们认为怎样？他不会来过节吧？”

†[Wlb]众寻耶稣、立于殿相语曰、尔意若何、彼不赴节乎、

†[Xdv]他们到处寻找耶稣；当他们聚在圣殿里的时候，彼此对问：“你认为怎样，他不会来过节吧？”

†[Kjv]Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?

†[Nkjv]Then they sought Jesus, and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple, "What do you think--that He will not come to the feast?"

†[BBE]They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another while they were in the Temple, What is your opinion? Will he not come to the feast?

†[GNT] They were looking for Jesus, and as they gathered in the Temple, they asked one another, "What do you think? Surely he will not come to the festival, will he?"

†[NIV]They kept looking for Jesus, and as they stood in the temple area they asked one another, "What do you think? Isn't he coming to the Feast at all?"

本会注释　　他们就寻找。他们现在所做的就像他们先前在住棚节时做的一样（约7:11）。但是现在撒都该人和法利赛人联合了起来（见47节注释），他们搜寻耶稣的力量就大大加强了。
　　祂不来过节。考虑到近来逮捕耶稣的命令，人们都在琢磨祂是否还会上来过节。希腊原文所传递的意思是：“祂可能不敢来过节了，是吗？”他们显然希望耶稣上到耶路撒冷来过节，这样他们对祂的抓捕就可以变得容易一点了。

约11:57 那时，祭司长和法利赛人早已吩咐说，若有人知道耶稣在哪里，就要报明，好去拿他。

†[吕]祭司长和法利赛人早已发了命令：若有人知道耶稣在哪里，就该报告，他们好去逮他。

†[思]司祭长和法利塞人早已颁发命令：如果有人知道他在那里，就该通知他们，好去捉拿他。

†[当代]当时祭司长和法利赛人早已颁布，如果有人知道耶稣在哪里，就来报告他们，好去抓祂。

†[新译]祭司长和法利赛人早已下了命令：如果有人知道耶稣在哪里，就要前来报告，好去逮捕他。

†[Wlb]祭司诸长与法利赛人、曾出谕曰、若有知其所在者、宜报焉、俾得执之、

†[Xdv]祭司长和法利赛人早已下命令：如果有人知道耶稣在什么地方，必须报告，好让他们去逮捕他。

†[Kjv]Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.

†[Nkjv]Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it, that they might seize Him.

†[BBE]Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone had knowledge where he was, he was to give them word, so that they might take him.

†[GNT] The chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where Jesus was, he must report it, so that they could arrest him.

†[NIV]But the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that if anyone found out where Jesus was, he should report it so that they might arrest him.

本会注释　　祭司长。见第47节注释。
　　知道。即“找到”。
　　报明。mēnuō，“揭发”，“报告”。
