The Anger of the Pharisees

Text: John 9: 28-29

THE ANGER OF THE PHARISEES

The Pharisees became angry with the former blind man as he spoke to them.

“Then they reviled him and said, ‘You are His disciple, but we are Moses’ disciples. We know that God spoke to Moses; as for this fellow, we do not know where He is from.’”

John 9:28-29

1. “Then they reviled him”

a) The word used is significant – “reviled”.

i) The Pharisees were very angry.

ii) They showed their anger vehemently towards the former blind man.

b) The following nuances are to be noted:

i) To curse

ii) To slander

iii) To speak evil of

iv) To insult

2. “You are His disciple”

a) They accused the blind man of being a disciple of Jesus.

b) They did not think much of Jesus.

c) They think even less of the former blind man.

3. “We are Moses’ disciples”

a) This was their proud claim.

b) This doesn’t mean that they were truly good disciples of Moses… despite their claim.

4. “We know that God spoke to Moses”

a) Moses was indeed a great servant of God.

b) But Moses was very different from the Pharisees.

i) He was humble and prayerful.

ii) He was compassionate and wise.

5. “As for this fellow, we do not know where He is from”

This was the regard of the Pharisees concerning Jesus! They despised Him. They had no respect at all for the Lord Jesus Christ. They did not even know where He was from and neither did they care!

经文：约翰福音9：28-29

法利赛人的愤怒

法利赛人在对从前瞎眼的人说话时，开始愤怒了。

“他们就骂他，说：‘你是他的门徒！我们是摩西的门徒。神对摩西说话是我们知道的，只是这个人，我们不知道他从哪里来！’”

《约翰福音9：28-29》

1. “他们就骂他”

a) 值得注意所使用的字 – “骂”

i) 法利赛人非常生气

ii) 他们对从前瞎眼的人表达了激烈的愤怒

b) 应注意以下形容的含义:

i) 诅咒

ii) 诽谤

iii) 用恶言批评

iv) 侮辱

2. “你是他的门徒”

a) 他们指责从前瞎眼的人是耶稣的门徒

b) 他们轻视耶稣

c) 他们更看不起从前瞎眼的人

3. “我们是摩西的门徒”

a) 他们傲慢地这么宣称

b) 尽管他们如此宣称，这并不代表他们是摩西真正的好门徒

4. “神对摩西说话是我们知道的”

a) 摩西确实是上帝的伟大仆人

b) 但摩西与法利赛人非常不同

i) 摩西谦卑和虔诚

ii) 他富有同情心和智慧

5. “只是这个人，我们不知道他从哪里来”

这是法利赛人对耶稣的看待！他们鄙视祂。他们对主耶稣基督毫无尊重。他们根本不知道也不在乎祂从何处来！
