马太福音-Matthew 1章19~20节
| 1:19 |
她丈夫约瑟是个义人，不愿明明的羞辱她，想要暗暗的把她退了。 And Joseph her husband, being righteous and not willing to disgrace her openly, intended to send her away secretly. |
| 1:20 |
正思念这事的时候，看哪，有主的使者向他梦中显现，说，大卫的子孙约瑟，不要怕，只管娶过你的妻子马利亚来，因那生在她里面的，乃是出于圣灵。 But while he pondered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife, for that which has been begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. |
Enlightenment:
Christ was conceived of the Holy Spirit and He was born of a virgin. His source was the Holy Spirit, and His element was divine. Through the virgin Mary as a means, He put on flesh and blood, the human nature, taking “the likeness of the flesh,” “the likeness of men” (Phil. 2:7). However, He did not have the sinful nature of the fallen flesh. He knew no sin (2 Cor. 5:21), and He had no sin (Heb. 4:15). He had flesh, but it was the “likeness of the flesh of sin.” In appearance He was made in the form of a fallen man, but in actuality there was no fallen nature within Him. His birth was exactly the same in principle. Apparently, He was the son of Joseph; actually, He was the son of Mary.
亮光
基督是从圣灵成孕，且从童女所生的。祂的源头是圣灵，祂的元素是神圣的。藉着童女马利亚，祂穿上了血肉，就是人性，取了肉体的样式，（罗八3，）就是人的样式。（腓二7。）然而，祂没有堕落肉体的罪性。祂不知罪，（林后五21，）祂也没有罪。（来四15。）祂有肉体，但祂的肉体乃是『罪之肉体的样式。』外表看来，祂是在堕落之人的形状里被造的，但实际上，祂里面没有堕落的性情。祂的出生在原则上完全一样。表面看来，祂是约瑟的儿子；实际上，祂是马利亚的儿子。
