The Prophesy about Jesus [26-04]

Then Jesus sat down. Everybody watched him closely. They knew the passage of scripture that he had just read referred to the Messiah. Jesus said, “The words I just read to you are happening right now.” All the people were amazed. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they said.

讲完耶稣就坐下，会堂里的人都定眼看他。他们知道所讲的和弥赛亚有关。耶稣说：“今天这经应验在你们耳中了。”众人都称赞他，问：“这不是约瑟的儿子吗？”

Translation Notes:

• The words I just read to you are happening right now - Other ways to translate this would be, "The words you just heard me read are being fulfilled right now" or, "Today the words I read to you came true as you heard them."
• amazed - Translate the word "amazed" with a term that means that they were surprised, shocked, and confused about how this could be possible.
• Isn't this the son of Joseph? –This could also be translated as, "This man is only the son of Joseph!" or, "Everyone knows he is just Joseph's son!" The people were not asking if he was Joseph's son or not. They were wondering how he could be the Messiah since they thought he was only the son of an ordinary man.
