Tara Lee Cobble: 耶稣在临近死亡之际,教导他的追随者如何更好地等待他的回归。等待的过程会产生各种各样的情绪,例如不耐烦、恐惧或者遗忘。我们很容易将耶稣的回归视为一件不那么令人兴奋的事情,因为我们对未来缺乏概念,更容易被未知吓倒,而日常琐事占据了我们的精力。 耶稣用十个童女的比喻强调了在等待中明智地管理时间的重要性。只有半数童女预备了油,这提醒我们要保持警醒,不被世俗的优先事项所迷惑。这个比喻的核心在于:准备好迎接基督的回归,需要拥有圣灵。在圣灵降临之前,耶稣预备门徒理解圣灵降临的意义。 才干的比喻进一步强调了在等待中明智地管理天赋和资源的重要性。这里的“才干”并非指天赋能力,而是基于能力而分配的资金。第三个仆人因不信任主人而将钱埋藏起来,错失了主人的喜乐,也失去了本应守护的东西。他指责主人苛刻不公,但事实并非如此,主人邀请仆人分享喜乐。我们对时间、金钱和天赋的使用负有责任,对上帝的信任决定了我们如何使用这些资源。 最终审判的比喻中,绵羊和山羊分别代表神的儿女和非神的儿女,右边象征着恩典和祝福。山羊进入为黑暗势力预备的永火,撒旦及其堕落天使将受到惩罚,撒旦并非地狱的统治者。绵羊进入神的永恒生命国度。耶稣的邀请是美丽的,他为之预备已久。那些信任主人的人,明智地管理时间、金钱和天赋,并因此得到祝福。上帝渴望与我们分享祂的祝福,祂那里有喜乐。
