你现今在过什么节－逾越节还是住棚节？不论你在过什么节，你仍是饥饿或干渴的。不论你是贫是富，不论你是在困苦还是在富余的光景中，你都会领悟你不是饥饿就是干渴。

When the Lord did not want to go, they were puzzled, and when the Lord was about to go, they thought that it was not necessary to go. Once the Lord expressed His desire to go and see Lazarus, all of the disciples expressed their opinions.

The Lord’s going was not His departure but actually another step of His coming.

Whoever commits sin is a slave of sin (8:34). A slave is always under a certain bondage. Satan, the devil, has brought all humankind under the bondage of sin by imparting himself into man as the sinful nature that compels man to sin. It is impossible for anyone to free himself from such a slavery.

有十二篮的零碎剩下来。为什么不是剩下五篮，八篮，或十一篮？因为十二这数字表征永远的完整和永远的完全。这就是说，甚至零碎也是永远完满和永远完整的。甚至微小、零碎的基督也满了取用不竭的丰富。

Everything is clear to us because now we have both the sight and the light. The sunshine is actually within us. Our eyes are opened and we can see very clearly because we have received sight and are now in the light.

What would have happened if the blind man had refused to obey the Lord’s command to go and wash?

To remain in the fellowship of the Lord maintained by the foot-washing requires the strength of resurrection life. We can never do it by our natural man.

The Holy Spirit is the reality of all things, and we are to be witnesses of the Spirit of reality.

主虽然是永远无限的神，（罗九5，）却作了人在地上生活，甚至受时间的限制。主甘愿失去祂的自由，受时间的约束，实行父的旨意，好将生命的活水供应我们。
