12我们用路加福音的一些事例作例证，帮助我们领会“在祂带着神圣属性的人性美德”这话。在七章三十六至五十节，有一个法利赛人请主耶稣同他吃饭，一个有罪的女人进了那人的家。……即使那有罪的女人“用眼泪湿了耶稣的脚，又用自己的头发擦干，还热切地亲祂的脚，并且把香膏抹上”（38），主〔在祂人性的美德中〕也一点不受搅扰。如果我们是主耶稣，我们可能会被这女人的行为搅扰。……〔然而，〕人救主非常仁慈且忍耐，祂晓得这女人自知有罪。……祂也富有怜悯。人常常说到爱，却很少说到怜悯。但怜悯比爱更周到，怜悯乃是同情光景可怜且地位低微的人。……主耶稣对那女人除了仁慈、忍耐、怜悯之外，也体谅她。我们常常不体谅人，但主耶稣在这女人的事例中满怀体谅。不仅如此，主也是智慧且慈爱的。
12As a help in understanding the expression in His human virtues with His divine attributes, let us use some cases in the Gospel of Luke as illustrations. In 7:36-50 a sinful woman came into the home of a Pharisee who had invited the Lord Jesus to eat with him…In His human virtues…He was not at all bothered by that sinful woman, even when she “began to wet His feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head” and when “she kissed His feet affectionately and anointed them with the ointment” (v. 38). If we had been the Lord Jesus, we probably would have been troubled by the behavior of this woman…, [but] the Man-Savior was very kind and patient, realizing that this woman had been convicted of her sins. He was also merciful. People often speak about love but rarely about mercy. Mercy, however, is more tender than love. To be merciful is to sympathize with others in their poor condition and low estate. In addition to exercising kindness, patience, and mercy toward the woman, the Lord Jesus also exercised His understanding. Often we fail to understand others, but the Lord Jesus was very understanding in the case of this woman. Furthermore, He was wise and loving.
