أَمَّا الْفَرِّيسِيُّ فَوَقَفَ يُصَلِّي فِي نَفْسِهِ هكَذَا: اَللّهُمَّ أَنَا أَشْكُرُكَ أَنِّي لَسْتُ مِثْلَ بَاقِي النَّاسِ الْخَاطِفِينَ الظَّالِمِينَ الزُّنَاةِ، وَلاَ مِثْلَ هذَا الْعَشَّارِ.

PARABLE OF THE PHARISEE AND THE PUBLICAN. (Luk 18:9-14) stood--as the Jews in prayer (Mar 11:25). God, &c.--To have been kept from gross iniquities was undoubtedly a just cause of thankfulness to God; but instead of the devoutly humble, admiring frame which this should inspire, the Pharisee arrogantly severs himself from the rest of mankind, as quite above them, and, with a contemptuous look at the poor publican, thanks God that he has not to stand afar off like him, to hang down his head like a bulrush and beat his breast like him. But these are only his moral excellencies. His religious merits complete his grounds for congratulation. Not confining himself to the one divinely prescribed annual fast (Lev 16:29), he was not behind the most rigid, who fasted on the second and fifth days of every week [LIGHTFOOT], and gave the tenth not only of what the law laid under tithing, but of "all his gains." Thus, besides doing all his duty, he did works of supererogation; while sins to confess and spiritual wants to be supplied he seems to have felt none. What a picture of the Pharisaic character and religion!
افتح المصدر ↗In this chapter we have, I. The parable of the importunate widow, designed to teach us fervency in prayer (Luk 18:1-8). II. The parable of the Pharisee and publican, designed to teach us humility, and humiliation for sin, in prayer (Luk 18:9-14). III. Christ's favour to little children that were brought to him (Luk 18:15-17). IV. The trial of a rich man that had a mind to follow Christ, whether he loved better Christ or his riches; his coming short upon that trial; and Christ's discourse with his disciples upon that occasion (Luk 18:18-30). V. Christ's foretelling his own death and sufferings (Luk 18:31-34). VI. His restoring sight to a blind man (Luk 18:35-43). And these four passages we had before in Matthew and Mark.

«وَمَتَى صَلَّيْتَ فَلاَ تَكُنْ كَالْمُرَائِينَ، فَإِنَّهُمْ يُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُصَلُّوا قَائِمِينَ فِي الْمَجَامِعِ وَفِي زَوَايَا الشَّوَارِعِ، لِكَيْ يَظْهَرُوا لِلنَّاسِ. اَلْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّهُمْ قَدِ اسْتَوْفَوْا أَجْرَهُمْ!
لأَنَّكَ تَقُولُ: إِنِّي أَنَا غَنِيٌّ وَقَدِ اسْتَغْنَيْتُ، وَلاَ حَاجَةَ لِي إِلَى شَيْءٍ، وَلَسْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ الشَّقِيُّ وَالْبَئِسُ وَفَقِيرٌ وَأَعْمَى وَعُرْيَانٌ.
يَقُولُ: قِفْ عِنْدَكَ. لاَ تَدْنُ مِنِّي لأَنِّي أَقْدَسُ مِنْكَ. هؤُلاَءِ دُخَانٌ فِي أَنْفِي، نَارٌ مُتَّقِدَةٌ كُلَّ النَّهَارِ.
وَتَقُولِينَ: لأَنِّي تَبَرَّأْتُ ارْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ عَنِّي حَقًّا. هأَنَذَا أُحَاكِمُكِ لأَنَّكِ قُلْتِ: لَمْ أُخْطِئْ.
وَمَتَى وَقَفْتُمْ تُصَلُّونَ، فَاغْفِرُوا إِنْ كَانَ لَكُمْ عَلَى أَحَدٍ شَيْءٌ، لِكَيْ يَغْفِرَ لَكُمْ أَيْضًا أَبُوكُمُ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ زَّلاَتِكُمْ.
وَيَأْتُونَ إِلَيْكَ كَمَا يَأْتِي الشَّعْبُ، وَيَجْلِسُونَ أَمَامَكَ كَشَعْبِي، وَيَسْمَعُونَ كَلاَمَكَ وَلاَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِهِ، لأَنَّهُمْ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ يُظْهِرُونَ أَشْوَاقًا وَقَلْبُهُمْ ذَاهِبٌ وَرَاءَ كَسْبِهِمْ.
اَلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ بُيُوتَ الأَرَامِلِ، وَلِعِلَّةٍ يُطِيلُونَ الصَّلَوَاتِ. هؤُلاَءِ يَأْخُذُونَ دَيْنُونَةً أَعْظَمَ!».
الْوَاقِفِينَ فِي بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، فِي دِيَارِ بَيْتِ إِلهِنَا.
وَإِيَّايَ يَطْلُبُونَ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا، وَيُسَرُّونَ بِمَعْرِفَةِ طُرُقِي كَأُمَّةٍ عَمِلَتْ بِرًّا، وَلَمْ تَتْرُكْ قَضَاءَ إِلهِهَا. يَسْأَلُونَنِي عَنْ أَحْكَامِ الْبِرِّ. يُسَرُّونَ بِالتَّقَرُّبِ إِلَى اللهِ.
هُوَذَا بَارِكُوا الرَّبَّ يَا جَمِيعَ عَبِيدِ الرَّبِّ، الْوَاقِفِينَ فِي بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ بِاللَّيَالِي.
