James 3:1

Chinese (Simplified) Contemporary Bible (CCB Bible) (圣经当代译本修订版)

我的弟兄姊妹，不要个个当教师，因为你们知道，我们为人师表的将受到更严格的评判。

这是什么意思？

James is telling his readers that not everyone should try to be a teacher because teachers will face greater judgment if they don't do their job well.

儿童解释

Imagine you're in charge of teaching your younger cousins how to tie their shoes. It's a big responsibility, and if you make mistakes, it could really mess things up for them. James is saying that being a teacher is like that - it comes with more responsibility and judgment.

历史背景

James wrote this letter around the first century AD to Jewish Christians scattered throughout various regions. As a leader in the early Christian church, he addressed issues of faith and practice within his community.
