馬太福音對律法的兩種詮釋 / 黃根春

撮要

本文指出在馬太福音中,存在兩種對律法的不同見解。第一種是猶太一基督徒的觀點,其旨在認定律法的有效性。第二種見解為普世/外邦一基督徒的觀點,他們以「金科玉律」為理解律法的入路,而「登山寶訓」的開始及結束: 馬太福音五章17至20節及七章12節,已展現了這兩種對律法的不同理解。

 

ABSTRACT

This paper argues that there are two different understandings of the Law in Matthew. The first understanding is Jewish-Christian oriented, affirming the validity of the Law. The second is universalized, Gentile-Christian understanding through the “Golden Rule”.

The addressees were Jewish Christians and Gentile Christians respectively. The two interpretations of the Law are based on two texts Mt 5:17-20 and 7:12, which are found in the beginning and at the end of the main body of the sermon on the Mount.
