本馬可福音中所記述的耶稣是一個受苦的僕人,然而,他的受苦主要不是來自祂極度忙碌的工作,也不是來自宗教領袖給他的許多迫吉,而是來自他所面對的孤單感。馬可福音中所描適耶稣與門徒的關係是很微妙的,耶稣一方面要與門徒建立特別密切的關係,那是獨處的時刻,也是獨有的教導,然而,門徒卻愈是顯得不能明白耶穌,也不能理解祂的教導,這種矛盾的關係更要顯出耶稣所面對的孤單感。馬可福音一方面透過門徒一些兩二次與三次的經歷,以及配合不同人物的出現,將耶穌與門徒的這種矛盾關係展示出來。

ABSTRACT

Jesus is narrated as a suffering servant in the Gospel of Mark, however, his sufferings are not mainly from his extremely busy works, nor mainly from different attacks from religious leaders, his sufferings are mainly from the loneliness that he faces in the Gospel, and this loneliness is much reflected by the contradictory relationship between Jesus and his disciples. In this Gospel, Jesus tries to establish a close relationship with his disciples, which includes private teachings and private times between Jesus and his disciples, however, in the narration of the Gospel, the misunderstandings and failures of the disciples are much related to the loneliness and suffering of Jesus. Through the narration of some of the disciples’ twice and triple events, and the narration of other characters in the Gospel, the contradictory relationship between Jesus and his disciples is much elaborated.
