18:28
眾人將耶穌從該亞法那裡往衙門內解去,那時天還早。他們自己卻不進衙門,恐怕染了污穢,不能吃逾越節的筵席。
18:29 彼拉多就出來,到他們那裡,說:你們告這人是為甚麼事呢?
18:30 他們回答說:這人若不是作惡的,我們就不把他交給你。
18:31
彼拉多說:你們自己帶他去,按著你們的律法審問他吧。猶太人說:我們沒有殺人的權柄。
18:32 這要應驗耶穌所說自己將要怎樣死的話了。
18:33 彼拉多又進了衙門,叫耶穌來,對他說:你是猶太人的王嗎?
18:34 耶穌回答說:這話是你自己說的,還是別人論我對你說的呢?
18:35 彼拉多說:我豈是猶太人呢?你本國的人和祭司長把你交給我。你做了甚麼事呢?
18:36
耶穌回答說:我的國不屬這世界;我的國若屬這世界,我的臣僕必要爭戰,使我不至於被交給猶太人。只是我的國不屬這世界。
18:37
彼拉多就對他說:這樣,你是王嗎?耶穌回答說:你說我是王。我為此而生,也為此來到世間,特為給真理作見證。凡屬真理的人就聽我的話。
18:38
彼拉多說:真理是甚麼呢?說了這話,又出來到猶太人那裡,對他們說:我查不出他有甚麼罪來。
18:39
但你們有個規矩,在逾越節要我給你們釋放一個人,你們要我給你們釋放猶太人的王嗎?
18:40 他們又喊著說:不要這人,要巴拉巴!這巴拉巴是個強盜。

18:28
他們從該亞法的府邸把耶穌押到總督府。那時候天已破曉。猶太人的領袖沒有進總督府裏面去,他們要在節期裏保持潔淨,為了要吃逾越節的筵席。
18:29 於是彼拉多出來,問他們:「你們拿甚麼罪名控告這個人?」
18:30 他們回答:「如果他沒有做壞事,我們不會把他帶到你這裏來。」
18:31 彼拉多對他們說:「你們自己把他帶走,按照你們的法律審判他好啦。」他們說:「可是我們沒有權判人死刑。」
18:32 這應驗了耶穌所說、自己將怎樣死的那句話。
18:33 彼拉多又進總督府內,叫耶穌來,問他:「你是猶太人的王嗎?」
18:34 耶穌回答:「你問這話是出於你自己,或是聽別人談論到我呢?」
18:35 彼拉多說:「你以為我是猶太人嗎?是你本國的人和祭司長們把你交給我的。你做了甚麼事呢?」
18:36
耶穌說:「我的國度不屬這世界;如果我的國度屬這世界,我的臣民一定為我爭戰,使我不至於落在猶太人手裏。不,我的國度不屬於這世界!」
18:37
彼拉多說:「那麼,你是王了?」耶穌回答:「我是王,這是你說的。我的使命是為真理作證,我為此而生,也為此來到世上。凡是屬於真理的人一定聽我的話。」
18:38 彼拉多問:「真理是甚麼?」
彼拉多又
出來,對猶太人說:「我查不出這個人有甚麼罪名。
18:39 但是你們有個慣例,要我在逾越節為你們釋放一個囚犯。你們要我為你們釋放猶太人的王嗎?」
18:40 他們又大喊:「不要他!我們要巴拉巴!」(巴拉巴是個暴徒。)
思想問題:耶穌是王.我是否真正讓耶穌做我生命的王,把我生命的主權交給祂呢?
今日禱告

RSV
18:28 Then they led Jesus
from the house of Ca'iaphas to the praetorium. It was early. They
themselves did not enter the praetorium, so that they might not be
defiled, but might eat the passover.
18:29 So Pilate went out to them and said,
"What accusation do you bring against this man?"
18:30 They answered him, "If this man were
not an evildoer, we would not have handed him over."
18:31 Pilate said to them, "Take him
yourselves and judge him by your own law." The Jews said to him, "It is
not lawful for us to put any man to death."
18:32 This was to fulfil the word which
Jesus had spoken to show by what death he was to die.
18:33 Pilate entered the praetorium again
and called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"
18:34 Jesus answered, "Do you say this of
your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?"
18:35 Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own
nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me; what have you
done?"
18:36 Jesus answered, "My kingship is not of
this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight,
that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not
from the world."
18:37 Pilate said to him, "So you are a
king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born,
and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth.
Every one who is of the truth hears my voice."
18:38 Pilate said to him, "What is truth?"
After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again, and told them, "I
find no crime in him.
18:39 But you have a custom that I should
release one man for you at the Passover; will you have me release for
you the King of the Jews?"
18:40 They cried out again, "Not this man,
but Barab'bas!" Now Barab'bas was a robber.
