Thai 1940 (พระคริสตธรรมคัมภีร์ ฉบับ 1940)
ข้อนี้หมายความว่าอะไร?
In Matthew 15:9, Jesus is speaking and he says that people are worshiping him in vain because they are teaching rules made by humans instead of true doctrines from God. The key message here is that following human traditions over God's teachings can make one's worship meaningless.
อธิบายสำหรับเด็ก
Imagine you have a favorite game your parents taught you, but then some friends come and change the rules, making it less fun for everyone. Jesus says people are doing something like that with their worship - they're changing the true way of worshipping God to fit what humans say, which makes it not as good anymore.
บริบททางประวัติศาสตร์
Matthew wrote this verse around AD 80-90 in Greek, likely addressed to Jewish Christians. In Jesus' time, many religious leaders were teaching extra rules that weren't from God but seemed important to follow, leading people away from true worship.
การประยุกต์ใช้วันนี้
A modern scenario could be a church community focusing heavily on strict dress codes and specific ways of praying instead of living out the love and grace found in Jesus. This can distract members from what truly matters in their faith journey.
