做基督徒就得恨自己的家人吗？

问：

耶稣不是说，如果你不恨你的父母，不恨你的兄弟姐妹，不恨你的
亲人朋友，你不能成为基督徒吗？ 


以琳答： 

耶稣曾说过“爱人如己”是两条最大的戒命之一。上面提到的经文
原文是说“作耶稣的门徒”，而不是“成为基督徒”。这两者并不
完全是一回事。希腊原文虽然是“恨”，但其意的确如中文翻译那
样是“爱我胜过爱”的意思。背十字架跟随主作主的门徒的确不是
一件简单的事情，因为需要付出自己生命的代价（参见太十六２５
等经文）。

“恨”的希腊原文是miseo, 下面是"Vine's Expository Dictionary of New 
Testament Words" 对miseo的解释： 

"to hate," is used especially (a) of malicious and unjustifiable feelings 
towards others, whether towards the innocent or by mutual animosity, e.g., 
Matt. 10:22; 24:10; Luke 6:22,27; 19:14; John 3:20, of "hating" the light 
(metaphorically); John 7:7; 15:18,19,23-25; Titus 3:3; 1 John 2:9,11; 3:13, 
15; 4:20; Rev. 18:2, where "hateful" translates the perfect participle 
Passive Voice of the verb, lit., "hated," or "having been hated;" (b) of 
a right feeling of aversion from what is evil; said of wrongdoing, Rom. 
7:15; iniquity, Heb. 1:9; "the garment (figurative) spotted by the flesh," 
Jude 1:23; "the works of the Nicolaitans," Rev. 2:6 (and ver. 15, in some 
mss.; see the (av)); (c) of relative preference for one thing over another, 
by way of expressing either aversion from, or disregard for, the claims of 
one person or thing relatively to those of another, Matt. 6:24; and Luke 
16:13, as to the impossibility of serving two masters; Luke 14:26, as to 
the claims of parents relatively to those of Christ; John 12:25, of disregard 
for one's life relatively to the claims of Christ; Eph. 5:29, negatively, 
of one's flesh, i.e. of one's own, and therefore a man's wife as one with 
him. 

当然，只有靠圣灵的启示我们才能真正明白路加福音十四章２６节的 
意思。
