馬太福音 13:10 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 13:10

And the disciples came, and said unto him
Not the twelve only, but others that were about him, as Mark says, who also were his disciples, and believed in him: these, when he was alone, came nearer to him, who, whilst he was preaching to the people, were at some little distance from him, either in the ship, or on the shore, though within the hearing of him, and addressed him after this manner;

why speakest thou unto them in parables?
not that this way of speaking was new and surprising to them; but because it was not easily understood, especially not by the common people, without an explanation, which, as yet, Christ had not given: and indeed the parable was not understood by the disciples themselves; who put this question, not only for the sake of the multitude, but for their own also, hoping to be favoured with the meaning of it.

馬太福音 13:10 In-Context

8 又 有 落 在 好 土 裡 的 ， 就 結 實 ， 有 一 百 倍 的 ， 有 六 十 倍 的 ， 有 三 十 倍 的 。

9 有 耳 可 聽 的 ， 就 應 當 聽 ！

10 門 徒 進 前 來 ， 問 耶 穌 說 ： 對 眾 人 講 話 ， 為 甚 麼 用 比 喻 呢 ？

11 耶 穌 回 答 說 ： 因 為 天 國 的 奧 祕 只 叫 你 們 知 道 ， 不 叫 他 們 知 道 。

12 凡 有 的 ， 還 要 加 給 他 ， 叫 他 有 餘 ； 凡 沒 有 的 ， 連 他 所 有 的 ， 也 要 奪 去 。
