马太福音-Matthew 8章7~8节

8:7 耶稣对他说,我去治好他。
  And He said to him, I will come and heal him.
8:8 百夫长回答说,主啊,我不配你到舍下来,只要你说一句话,我的仆人就必得医治。
  But the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not fit for You to enter under my roof; but only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.

Enlightenment:

When the Lord told the centurion that He would come and heal his servant, “The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not fit that You should enter under my roof; but only speak a word, and my servant boy shall be healed.” The Gentile centurion recognized the authority of the kingly Savior and realized healing authority was in His word. Thus he believed not only in the kingly Savior, but also in His word, asking Him not to go personally but only to send His word. This is stronger faith, and it was marveled at by the Savior (v. 10).

亮光

当主告诉百夫长,祂要去治好他的仆人时,“百夫长回答说,主阿,我不配你到舍下来,只要你说一句话,我的仆人就必得医治。”外邦的百夫长承认君尊救主的权柄,晓得祂的话带着医治的权柄;因此,他不仅相信君尊的救主,也相信祂的话,求祂不必亲自去,只要说一句话就可以了。这是更强的信心,使救主觉得希奇。(太八10。)
