注解：

Numbers 3:1 Aaron and Moses. Because Aaron and his sons are emphasized in this chapter, Aaron is named first. Mount Sinai. The Lord had first communicated to Moses His choice of Aaron and his sons as priests in Exodus 28:1–29:46, while he was in the midst of the cloud on Mt. Sinai (Ex. 24:18).
民数记 3:1 亚伦和摩西。 因本章强调亚伦和他的儿子们，亚伦被首先提及。西奈山。 耶和华首次向摩西传达拣选亚伦和他儿子们为祭司的旨意是在出埃及记28:1–29:46，当时摩西在西奈山的云中（出24:18）。

Numbers 3:4 Eleazar and Ithamar. All of the future priests of Israel under the Mosaic Covenant were descendants of these two sons of Aaron. Eleazar and his descendants would later be singled out for great blessing (see Num. 25:10–13).
民数记 3:4 以利亚撒和以他玛。 摩西之约下以色列未来的祭司都是亚伦这两个儿子的后裔。以利亚撒和他的后裔后来被特别赐予大福（见民25:10–13）。

[!bible]+ Numbers 25:10-13 - CUNPS ¹⁰耶和华晓谕摩西说： ¹¹“祭司亚伦的孙子，以利亚撒的儿子非尼哈，使我向以色列人所发的怒消了；因他在他们中间，以我的忌邪为心，使我不在忌邪中把他们除灭。 ¹²因此，你要说：『我将我平安的约赐给他。 ¹³这约要给他和他的后裔，作为永远当祭司职任的约；因他为神有忌邪的心，为以色列人赎罪。』”

Psalm 30:2, 3 You healed me. God alone is the unique healer (see Ex. 15:26; Deut. 32:39; Ps. 107:20). David is extolling God for bringing him back from a near-death experience.
诗篇 30:2, 3 你医治了我。 唯独神是独特的医治者（见出15:26；申32:39；诗107:20）。大卫赞美神将他从濒死之境救回。

Psalm 30:5 This stark contrast constitutes one of the most worshipful testimonies from the Scriptures (see the principle in Is. 54:7, 8; John 16:20–22; 2 Cor. 4:17).
诗篇 30:5 这种鲜明的对比构成了圣经中最具敬拜意义的见证之一（见赛54:7,8；约16:20–22；林后4:17的原则）。

Mark 8:2 I have compassion. Only here and in the parallel passage (Matt. 15:32) did Jesus use this word of Himself. When He fed the 5,000, Jesus expressed “compassion” for the people’s lost spiritual condition (6:34). Here, He expressed “compassion” for people’s physical needs. Jesus could empathize with their hunger, having experienced it Himself (Matt. 4:2).
马可福音 8:2 我怜悯他们。 只有在这里和对应的经文（太15:32）中，耶稣用这个词形容自己。当祂喂饱五千人时，耶稣表达了对人们迷失属灵光景的“怜悯”（6:34）。在这里，祂表达了对人们物质需要的“怜悯”。耶稣能体恤他们的饥饿，因祂自己也经历过（太4:2）。

DAY 3: What was the “leaven of the Pharisees and…of Herod” that Jesus warned about?
第三天：耶稣警告的“法利赛人的酵和希律的酵”是什么？

The skeptical Pharisees asked for a “sign from heaven” in Mark 8:11, demanding further miraculous proof of Jesus’ messianic claims. Not content with the countless miracles He had performed on earth, they demanded some sort of astronomical miracle. Having already given them more than enough proof, Jesus refused to accommodate their spiritual blindness. The supreme sign verifying His claim to be the Son of God and Messiah was to be His resurrection (Matt. 16:39, 40).
怀疑的法利赛人在马可福音8:11中要求“从天上来的神迹”，要求更多奇迹来证明耶稣的弥赛亚身份。他们对耶稣在地上行的无数神迹仍不满足，要求某种天文奇观。耶稣已经给了他们足够的证据，却拒绝迎合他们的属灵盲目。验证祂是神子和弥赛亚的至高神迹将是祂的复活（太16:39,40）。

Jesus warned the disciples about “the leaven of the Pharisees and…of Herod.” “Leaven” is a yeast that multiplies quietly and permeates all that it contacts. In the New Testament, “leaven” most often symbolizes the evil influence of sin. The “leaven” of the Pharisees included both their false teaching (Matt. 16:12) and their hypocritical behavior (Luke 12:1). The “leaven” of Herod Antipas was his immoral, corrupt conduct (see 6:17–29). The Pharisees and the Herodians were allied against Christ (3:6).
耶稣警告门徒要防备“法利赛人的酵和希律的酵”。“酵”是一种酵母，悄悄地繁殖并渗透到它所接触的一切中。在新约中，“酵”通常象征罪的邪恶影响。法利赛人的“酵”包括他们的错误教导（太16:12）和虚伪行为（路12:1）。希律安提帕的“酵”是他的不道德和腐败行为（见6:17–29）。法利赛人和希律党人联合反对基督（3:6）。

To Jesus’ amazement, the disciples completely missed His point, thinking He was talking about physical bread. He was concerned with spiritual truth, not mundane physical matters. Jesus asks them, “Is your heart still hardened?” (v. 17), which implies that they were rebellious, spiritually insensitive, and unable to understand spiritual truth. And He also reminded them of His ability to provide anything they might lack.
令耶稣惊讶的是，门徒完全误解了祂的意思，以为祂在谈论物质的食物。祂关心的是属灵的真理，而非世俗的物质问题。耶稣问他们：“你们的心还是愚顽吗？”（17节），暗示他们悖逆、属灵迟钝，无法理解属灵真理。祂也提醒他们，祂有能力供应他们可能缺乏的一切。
