Abstract

In Col 3:11, through tightly contrasting couplets, we are told that everyone can enjoy God’s grace. Though the passage seemingly involves no difficulty, doubts may be raised about the opposition between barbarians and Scythians, both being uncivilized nations. Yet the savagery of the latter, unparalleled among the barbarians, was their well-known hallmark. Even though this picture of the Scythians seems to have become commonplace in Greek and Roman literature, it might be inferred from epigraphical evidence that this barbarian nation was still a reason for disquiet in Asia Minor at the time when the Letter to the Colossians was delivered.

“斯基泰人仍然让我们害怕”

在歌罗西书3章11节，通过对比鲜明的对句，我们被告知每个人都可以享受上帝的恩典。虽然这篇文章似乎没有什么困难，但人们可能会对野蛮人和斯基泰人之间的对立产生怀疑，这两个国家都是未开化的国家。然而，后者的野蛮程度，在野蛮人中是无与伦比的，这是他们众所周知的特点。尽管斯基泰人的形象在希腊和罗马文学中似乎已经司空见惯，但从铭文证据可以推断，在《致歌罗西书》发表时，这个野蛮民族仍然是小亚细亚不安的一个原因。
