17现在我们看见,主在马可四章论到国度,在五章赶出群鬼,好执行国度。在讲论国度的话与国度的执行这二者之间,有海上风暴这件事。主斥责风,并向海说话以后,风就止住,大大地平静了,因为空中邪恶天使和水中污鬼的背叛被征服了。所以,我们在四章三十五至四十一节看见,国度乃是征服背叛的能力。
17Now we can see that in chapter 4 the Lord spoke concerning the kingdom, and in chapter 5 He carried out the kingdom through the casting out of demons. Between the word concerning the kingdom and the carrying out of the kingdom, there is the incident of the stormy sea. After the Lord rebuked the wind and spoke to the sea, the wind ceased and there was a great calm, for the rebellion of the evil angels in the air and the demons in the water was subdued. Therefore, in 4:35-41 we see the kingdom as the power to subdue rebellion.
