神父講道 – 常年期第十七主日 (2018年7月29日)
恭讀聖若望福音 6:1-15
那時候,耶穌渡過加里肋亞海,即提庇黎雅海,到對岸去。大批群眾,因為看見耶穌在患病者身上,所行的神蹟,都跟隨著他。耶穌上了山,和他的門徒一起,坐在那裡。那時,猶太人的慶節,即逾越節,已臨近了。
耶穌舉目,看見大批群眾來到他面前,就對斐理伯說:「我們從那裡買餅給這些人吃呢?」他說這話,是為試探斐理伯;他自己原知道要做什麼。
斐理伯回答說:「就是二百塊『德納』的餅,也不夠每人分得一小塊。」
有一個門徒,即西滿伯多祿的哥哥安德肋,說:「這裡有一個兒童,他有五個大麥餅和兩條魚;但是,為這麼多的人,這算得什麼?」
耶穌說:「你們叫眾人坐下吧!」 在那地方有許多青草,於是眾人便坐下,男人約有五千。
耶穌就拿起餅,祝謝後,分給坐下的人;同樣,也把魚分了;讓眾人任意吃。他們吃飽以後,耶穌向門徒說:「把剩下的碎塊,收集起來,免得糟蹋。」他們就把眾人吃飽後,所剩下的五個大麥餅的碎塊,收集起來,裝滿了十二筐。
眾人見了耶穌所行的神蹟,就說:「這人確實就是那要來到世界上的先知。」
耶穌看出他們要來強迫他,立他為王,就獨自又退避到山裡。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 6:1-15
Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee. A large crowd followed him, because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick. Jesus went up on the mountain, and there he sat down with his disciples. The Jewish feast of Passover was near. When Jesus raised his eyes and saw that a large crowd was coming to him, he said to Philip, “Where can we buy enough food for them to eat?” He said this to test him, because he himself knew what he was going to do. Philip answered him, “Two hundred days’ wages worth of food would not be enough for each of them to have a little.” One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?” Jesus said, “Have the people recline.” Now there was a great deal of grass in that place. So the men reclined, about five thousand in number. Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed them to those who were reclining, and also as much of the fish as they wanted. When they had had their fill, he said to his disciples, “Gather the fragments left over, so that nothing will be wasted.” So they collected them, and filled twelve wicker baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves that had been more than they could eat. When the people saw the sign he had done, they said, “This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world.” Since Jesus knew that they were going to come and carry him off to make him king, he withdrew again to the mountain alone.
