- The King begins Teaching 君王开始教导 (4:23a)
Though Galilee had long been known as “Galilee of the Gentiles” Jesus chose to start his ministry here by teaching in the synagogues. Teaching is from didaskō, from which we get didactic. Jesus’ teaching was basically exposition of the Scripture as illustrated in Luke 4:16-21.
虽然加利利早已被称作是“外邦人的加利利地”，耶稣却选择在这里展开祂的事工。主一开始就在犹太人的会堂教导人。教导的意思包括解释和阐述。主耶稣的教导是以圣经为根据的；路加福音4:16-21就是一个例子。主耶稣教导的重点就是解释圣经。
- The King begins Preaching 君王开始传道 (4:23b)
Proclaiming is from a term kērussō often translated “to preach.” The root idea is “to herald” or “to proclaim,” that is, to publicly make a known the message. Teaching (didaskō) relates to explaining a message, whereas the task of preaching (kērussō) simply is to proclaim and make it known the Word authoritatively.
传讲的原文是kērussō，常被译为“传道”。它的本意是“宣告”，“宣布”或“宣讲”的意思，也就是公开地表明神的信息。教导（didaskō）主要指的是解释或阐述，但“传道” （kērussō）仅仅是带权柄宣告神的话。
- The King begins Healing 君王开始医治 (4:23c-25)
Jesus begins His healing ministry to authenticate His Messiahship. As stated in Matt 11:1 that when John Baptist doubted, Jesus told John’s disciples to inform John what they saw and heard. That is the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them (Mat 11:1-5). The healing is to authenticate His Messiahship.
耶稣展开他医治的事工，以鉴定自己弥赛亚的身份。我们在马太福音11:1可以看到，当施洗约翰起疑惑时，耶稣叫约翰的门徒告诉约翰他们所见所闻的，就是瞎子看见，瘸子行走，长大麻疯的洁净，聋子听见，死人复活，穷人有福音传给他们（太11:1-5）。所以，医治的事工是主耶稣为弥赛亚的明证。
Praying the Scripture 用经文祷告
- Jesus’ teaching is based on exposition of the Scripture. Look around us, how many teachings of the churches are expositions of the Scripture? On the other hand, can you tell whether the teachers are expositing the Scripture or are they teaching their own ideas? Pray that we are discerning so that we will not be mistaken human ideas to be God’s Word.
主耶稣的教导是以解释圣经为主的。然而，今日有多少教会的教导是以此为模式的呢？我们能不能分辨讲员所讲的是在释经圣经还是传讲自己的意见？求主开启我们的眼睛，不要把人的道理误以为是神的道而误入歧途。
- Preaching is proclamation of God’s Word. Look around us, the preaching you hear is it a dialogue or proclamation of the Word of God? Is it story telling or jokes or is it an authoritative proclamation of God’s Word? Let’s pray for the pastors to be bold in proclaiming the Word of God without hesitation.
“传道”原文的意思是“宣讲”圣经的话。仔细想想，今日教会的讲台是在“议论”还是在“宣告”圣经的信息？今天的讲台是在讲故事，讲笑话还是带着神的权柄传讲神的话呢？让我们为众教会的牧师祷告，求主给他们胆量来宣告圣经的教训，而不是讨人的欢心。
- Jesus’ healing is an authentication of His Messiahship. Have you personally acknowledged Him as Son of God and savior of the world? Let’s thank Jesus for His work on the cross.
