奋斗与勇敢-第319章
（太27:11-26）
“彼拉多见说也无济于事，反要生乱，就拿水在众人面前洗手，说：流这义人的血，罪不在我，你们承当吧”（太27:24）。{CC 324.1}[1]

Matthew 27:11-26[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
如果彼拉多一开始就坚持正义，不肯定无罪的人为有罪，他就可以挣断那后来终身捆绑他的悔恨和自咎的锁链了。如果他实行自己认为公正的事，犹太人也不至于擅敢来左右他。基督固然终于被人害死，可是罪责就不至于归到彼拉多身上。但彼拉多竟一步一步地违背了良心。他曾原谅自己不按正义和公道施行审判，这时他就被玩弄于祭司和官长们的股掌之上，几乎无力自拔了。他的反复无常和犹豫不决，造成了他的败亡。（DA731）{CC 324.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
When Pilate realized that nothing more could be done but that there would soon be a riot, he took a bowl of water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying: “I take no responsibility for the death of this man. You must see to that yourselves.” Matthew 27:24, Phillips. {CC 324.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
彼拉多带着恐惧和自责的态度望着救主。在这仰着脸的人山人海中，惟有救主的容貌是泰然安详的。在祂头上似乎有一道柔和的光照耀着。彼拉多心里说：祂确是上帝。于是他转向众人说：祂的血与我无关，你们把祂带去钉十字架吧！但是……我宣布祂是一个义人。惟愿祂所称为父的上帝，为今天的事审判你们，而不要审判我。随后又对耶稣说：请祢原谅我这样做，我不能救祢了。……{CC 324.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
If at the first Pilate had stood firm, refusing to condemn a man whom he found guiltless, he would have broken the fatal chain that was to bind him in remorse and guilt as long as he lived. Had he carried out his convictions of right, the Jews would not have presumed to dictate to him. Christ would have been put to death, but the guilt would not have rested upon Pilate. But Pilate had taken step after step in the violation of his conscience. He had excused himself from judging with justice and equity, and he now found himself almost helpless in the hands of the priests and rulers. His wavering and indecision proved his ruin.33 {CC 324.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
彼拉多原想释放耶稣。但他看出，为保全自己的地位和尊荣，他不能这样作。他宁可牺牲一个无辜之人的性命，而不愿失去自己属世的权力。古往今来，多少人为避免损失或痛苦也这样牺牲了原则。良心和本分向人指着一条路；而自私自利却指着另一条路。……{CC 324.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
In fear and self-condemnation Pilate looked upon the Saviour. In the vast sea of upturned faces, His alone was peaceful. About His head a soft light seemed to shine. Pilate said in his heart, He is a God. Turning to the multitude he declared, I am clear of His blood. Take ye Him, and crucify Him. But ... I pronounce Him a just man. May He whom He claims as His Father judge you and not me for this day’s work. Then to Jesus he said, Forgive me for this act; I cannot save You.... {CC 324.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
彼拉多屈从了暴徒的要挟，宁可把耶稣交给人去钉十字架，而不愿冒丧失地位的危险。……但他所害怕的事，后来还是临到他头上了。他从高位被革职黜退，结果在悔恨与耻辱之下，在主被钉之后不久，就结束了自己的生命。凡与罪恶妥协的人，都只能得到忧愁和败亡。“有一条路人以为正，至终成为死亡之路”（箴14:12）。（DA738）{CC 324.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第319章
Pilate longed to deliver Jesus. But he saw that he could not do this, and yet retain his own position and honor. Rather than lose his worldly power, he chose to sacrifice an innocent life. How many, to escape loss or suffering, in like manner sacrifice principle. Conscience and duty point one way, and self-interest points another.... {CC 324.4}[5]
