棕樹枝 |《瑪竇福音》21:1~11 | 《若望福音》12:12~19

-

 



棕樹枝通常被視為一種勝利和慶祝的象徵。在聖經中，棕樹枝常常被用來慶祝節日和戰勝敵人。


《瑪竇福音》21:1~11，人們以棕樹枝來迎接耶穌進入耶路撒冷，這代表了人們對耶穌的歡迎和信任。在以前，棕樹枝是一種常用於慶祝和表揚的標誌，這也表明了人們對耶穌的讚美和敬意。


《若望福音》12:12~19 中，也描述了耶穌進入耶路撒冷時人們揮舞棕樹枝和歡呼的情景，這個場景也預示了耶穌即將成為猶太人的救主，並且他所帶來的救贖是非常具有歷史性和革命性的。

C. Michael Dudash, "Living Water." Copyrighted by the artist. Permission requested.     The "sixth hour" "It was about noon", "It was about the sixth hour" in John 4:6 means it was about noon and was the way Jews told time back then. Each hour was roughly two hours long, starting from sunrise. The timing might highlight when the woman went to the well, which was unusual as most people went when it was cooler. It could also symbolize a moment in her life when she felt passion and difficulty or suggest that she avoided others, particularly Jews. In Christianity, number six represents human imperfection and sin as God created man on the sixth day in Genesis. Hence, the reference to the sixth hour may imply the woman's sinfulness and need for Jesus' salvation and redemption.

Jesus thanked God the Father for revealing wisdom to children and hiding it from the wise and intelligent. Being humble means that Jesus recognised God's plan and understood that God's wisdom surpasses human understanding. He was willing to reveal Himself to those who are humble and pure. Jesus also spoke a very important truth: "All things have been entrusted to me by my Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him". This shows that Jesus is the representative of God the Father, and only through Jesus can people truly know God the Father and come close to Him. Jesus described himself as a person with a "gentle and humble heart". He invited all those who were weary and burdened to come to him and promised them rest. This is an example of humility. He didn't welcome people with pride and arrogance, but with love and gentleness. He was willing to help them lighten their burdens and give them inner peac...

  Matthew 17:1      The "six days" mentioned in the Scriptures refers to the fact that Jesus invited Peter, James and John to go up on a mountain where He revealed His glory. This event took place about six days before Jesus was crucified. In this event, Jesus' face shines and his clothes become white and shiny, which is a harbinger of his conversion.       "Six days" also appears in other places in the Bible, some of which have special meanings: Genesis 1      Records the time when God created the heavens, the earth and all things. During the creation process, words such as "the first day", "the second day" and "the third day" were used repeatedly. The meaning of these days in the Bible refers to the sequence and order of creation, stage. Exodus Chapter 24      It is recorded that Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel climbed Mount Sinai, prayed for guidance from the Lord and spent "six days" ther...
