路加福音8:1-3

 

8:1 過了不多日，耶穌周遊各城各鄉傳道，宣講上帝國的福音。和他同去的有十二個門徒，
8:2 還有被惡鬼所附、被疾病所累、已經治好的幾個婦女，內中有稱為抹大拉的馬利亞（曾有七個鬼從她身上趕出來），
8:3 又有希律的家宰苦撒的妻子約亞拿，並蘇撒拿，和好些別的婦女，都是用自己的財物供給耶穌和門徒。

 After this, Jesus traveled about from one town and village to another, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with him, ² and also some women who had been cured of evil spirits and diseases: Mary (called Magdalene) from whom seven demons had come out; ³ Joanna the wife of Chuza, the manager of Herod’s household; Susanna; and many others. These women were helping to support them out of their own means.

 

**************

 

    在古時對於婦女的事蹟是很少記載的，但是主耶穌傳福音同行的人，不只有十二個門徒，還有一些婦女。這些婦女是經過主耶穌醫治的，她們自動來跟隨主，一起向人見證福音。

    她們不僅是見證福音，有的人家境好的，還使用自己的財物供給耶穌和門徒。這是很難得的舉動，肯將財務奉獻在傳福音的事工！

    求主幫助我們，如同這些婦人，見證福音定投入時間和金錢來供應上帝國的需要，讓福音快快傳揚出去！
