神国中的“最小者”
THE SMALLER IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD
接下来,耶稣所作的另一个预言,指明了所期待的弥赛亚。它证实他是众先知中最伟大的,他就是名叫以利亚的先知,也是先前众先知轮流预言的那一位。耶稣说:"我实在告诉你们,凡妇人所生的,没有一个大过施洗的约翰的;然而天国里最小的,比他还大。自从施洗的约翰的时候,直到如今,天国是强力进入的,并且努力的人想要夺取。因为众先知和律法,直到约翰都有预言。你们若肯领受,这人就是那要来的以利亚。有耳可听的,就应当听。"(马太福音 11:11-15)因此,天国中最小的,就是以利亚,即那被宣告要来的人,是先知们一个接一个所述说的那一位,最后由施洗的约翰来结束。
Another prophecy that Jesus gave, tells us about the expected messiah. It confirms that he is the greatest of all prophets, he is the prophet named Elijah, and that he is the prophet whom the previous prophets took turns prophesizing. Jesus (PBUH) said, "Truly, I say to you, among those born of women, none is greater than John: yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. From the days of John, the Baptist, until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. " (Matthew: 11/11-15) thus, the smaller in the Kingdom of heavens is Elijah, the one proclaimed to come, the one the prophets told about one after another, ending by John the Baptist.
谁是天国里的以利亚,那个最小的?他就是真主的使者穆罕默德ﷺ。他在时间上比其他众先知出现得晚,因此似乎最小;但他在使命的完成上超越了他们所有人,并且真主使他的信仰成为直至审判日的最后一种宗教。那么,如果他不是穆罕默德ﷺ,又会是谁呢?
Who is Elijah, the smaller in the kingdom of heavens? He is Muhammad the messenger of God (PBUH). Who is small by his delay in time compared to the rest of the prophets, but he exceeded them all by the completion of his message, and with God granting his faith to be the final religion until the Day of Judgment, so if he was not Muhammad (PBUH), who will he be?
不能接受基督徒声称耶稣(愿主赐他平安)是最后的使者和先知,而他们的依据却是相信其门徒的信息,甚至还相信保罗等人的信息。此外,他(愿主赐他平安)的信息并未完成,因为使徒们在耶路撒冷第一次会议上作出了修正和编辑,声称这是为了让新皈依的基督徒更容易接受,于是他们取消了割礼,并允许了《妥拉》所禁止的一些事物。
It is not acceptable that a Christian claim that Jesus (PBUH) is the last messenger and prophet, basing their claim on believing in his disciples’ message and even in others’ like Paul. Moreover, his message (PBUH) was not completed, for the correction and the editing made by the apostles in the First Jerusalem Council claiming that it is to make it easy for the new Christians convert, so they cancelled circumcision, and allowed some of what the Torah made unlawful.
“较小”一词并不适用于耶稣(愿主赐福于他),因为他并不是最后的先知。另外,当他说“我实在告诉你们,在妇人所生的人中,没有一个比施洗约翰更大的;但天国中最小的,比他还大。从施洗约翰的时候直到如今,天国是努力进入的,努力的人就得着了。因为众先知和律法,直到约翰才说预言。你们若肯领受,这人就是那要来的以利亚。有耳可听的,就应当听。”(马太福音 11:11-15)时,并没有说明或被理解为他是在谈论自己。
Based on that, the word "the smaller" does not match Jesus (PBUH), because he was not the last prophet. In addition, it was not stated or understood that he was talking about himself when he said, " Truly, I say to you, among those born of women, none is greater than John: yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. From the days of John, the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He, who has ears to hear, let him hear." (Mathew: 11/11-15).
那个“更小的”,是与天国相连的,而天国在当时尚未建立;他被预告将要到来,但他尚未到来——他就是穆罕默德ﷺ。
That smaller comes with the kingdom of heavens, which has not been established at that time, and he was proclaimed to come but he has not come yet, he is Muhammad (PBUH).
