56.Magdalen Repeats Her Anointing of Jesus
The next day Jesus teaches in the Temple,
where He again drives out the merchants and vendors.
56.玛达肋纳重复膏抹耶稣
第二天,耶稣在圣殿里施教,
他再次驱逐商人和小贩。
Full of trouble, Jesus went back with the Apostles to Bethania for the Sabbath. While He was teaching in the Temple, the Jews had been ordered to keep their houses closed, and it was forbidden to offer Him or His disciples any refreshment. On reaching Bethania, they went to the public house of Simon, the healed leper, where a meal awaited them.
耶稣充满了忧闷,带着宗徒回到伯达尼过安息日。 当耶稣在圣殿施教时,犹太人被命令关上他们的房子的门,并且禁止向耶稣或祂的门徒提供任何茶点。 到达伯达尼后,他们来到了治愈了的麻风病人西满的家,在那里等候吃饭。
Magdalen, filled with compassion for Jesus’ fatiguing exertions, met the Lord at the door. She was habited in a penitential robe and girdle, her flowing hair concealed by a black veil. She cast herself at His feet and with her hair wiped from them the dust, just as one would clean the shoes of another. She did it openly before all, and many were scandalized at her conduct.
玛达肋纳对耶稣疲乏的操劳充满同情,就在门口迎接了主。 她穿着补赎的长袍和腰带,飘逸的头发被黑色的面纱遮住。 她俯伏在耶稣的脚前,用自己的头发擦去耶稣脚上的尘土,就像一个人擦另一个人的鞋子一样。 她在所有人面前公开这样做,许多人对她的行为感到震惊。
After Jesus and the disciples had prepared themselves for the Sabbath, that is, put on the garments prescribed and prayed under the lamp, they stretched themselves at table for the meal. Toward the end of it, Magdalen, urged by love, gratitude, contrition, and anxiety, again made her appearance. She went behind the Lord’s couch, broke a little flask of precious balm over His head and poured some of it upon His feet, which she again wiped with her hair. That done, she left the dining hall. Several of those present were scandalized, especially Judas, who excited Matthew, Thomas, jand John Mark to displeasure. But Jesus excused her, on account of the love she bore Him. She often anointed Him in this way. Many of the facts mentioned only once in the Gospels happened frequently. (Vol. 4,pp. 21-22)
耶稣和门徒为安息日做好准备后,即穿上规定的衣服,在灯下祈祷之后,他们就在餐桌前舒展身体准备用餐。接近尾声时,在爱、感激、悔悟和渴望的驱使下,玛达肋纳再次出现。她走到主的长椅后面,将一小瓶珍贵的香膏打破,倒在主的头上,倒一些在祂的脚上,然后又用头发擦干。做完这些,她离开了餐厅。在场的几个人都感到震惊,尤其是犹达斯,他使得玛窦、多默和若望玛尔谷不高兴。但耶稣宽免她,因为她对祂的爱。 她经常以这种方式膏抹耶稣,多次发生的事实在福音书中只提到一次。 (第 4 卷,第 21-22 页)
