Abstract
Scholarship is divided on the referent of πνεῦμα in Mark 14,38. Most scholars (mainly English and French) favour an anthropological referent while a minority (some English and most German scholars) supports a divine referent. This study proposes that 14,38 refers to the divine spirit and that, in the broader context of Mark 13, the intended comparison is not of an inner human struggle but the contrast between two kinds of human existence. Members of the Jesus group can rely on divine assistance in testing situations while non-members have no access to this divine resource.
学术界以马可福音14:38中的πνε ο μα为参照来划分。大多数学者(主要是英国和法国)赞成人类学参考物,而少数学者(一些英国和大多数德国学者)支持神圣参考物。这项研究提出,14,38指的是神圣的精神,在马可福音13章更广泛的背景下,有意的比较不是人类内心的斗争,而是两种人类存在之间的对比。耶稣小组的成员可以依靠神的帮助在考验的情况下,而非成员无法获得这种神圣的资源。
