(家庭津貼計(jì)劃)Extension 根據(jù)基督教福音書，耶穌是伯利恒的圣母瑪利亞受圣靈感孕后生下的，瑪利亞和丈夫約瑟當(dāng)時(shí)正在去羅馬人口普查注冊(cè)的路上。耶穌的出生在信徒看來(lái)是猶太教預(yù)言中的彌賽亞將要到來(lái)計(jì)劃的實(shí)現(xiàn)，因?yàn)椴闶羌s瑟祖先大衛(wèi)一族的家。圣誕節(jié)也是西方世界以及其他很多地區(qū)的公共假日。其中包括像日本，香港這樣的亞洲國(guó)家和地區(qū)。但耶穌確切的出生日期是存在爭(zhēng)議的。 路加描述說(shuō)，瑪麗婭年幼時(shí)收到天使加百列的消息，身為處女的她藉由圣靈受孕。當(dāng)時(shí)羅馬皇帝奧古斯都有下旨，叫天下人民各歸各城人口普

15、查，于是她和丈夫約瑟離開在加利利的拿撒勒城上猶太去,這是居里扭作敘利亞總督之后，頭一次報(bào)名上冊(cè)，途中他們經(jīng)過(guò)約瑟祖先大衛(wèi)生活的伯利恒城，在伯利恒因?yàn)樵卩l(xiāng)村旅店已經(jīng)沒有空房，他們只好寄宿在旅舍外面，瑪利亞在那兒的馬廄里生下了耶穌，這里的馬廄根據(jù)圣經(jīng)版本不同而不同，但通常是一個(gè)喂食槽或是個(gè)畜欄?；匠錾诓?，伯利恒是約瑟祖先大衛(wèi)王的家，這就實(shí)現(xiàn)了以色列的預(yù)言。后來(lái)耶穌家逃到埃及是為了逃避憤怒的大希律王的追殺，因?yàn)橄Ｂ赏趼犝f(shuō)了在伯利恒出生一個(gè)新的猶太王。當(dāng)希律王死后，新的猶太王繼位，他并不認(rèn)識(shí)耶穌和他的父母，因此耶穌的生命就沒有了威脅，這樣耶穌和家人返回了以色列，他們定居在拿撒勒。Virgin

16、Mary 與天主教在天主教會(huì)中，人們對(duì)圣母瑪利亞的敬禮特別隆重，對(duì)她的祈求特別熱切。圣母瑪利亞在信徒的心目中是一位“天上的母親”。從圣經(jīng)上看，與基督的救世事業(yè)發(fā)生密切聯(lián)系的除了宗徒之外，便是瑪利亞了。由于瑪利亞這層關(guān)系，救贖便具有了某種屬于女性的視角。教會(huì)關(guān)于圣母瑪利亞的教義與教會(huì)關(guān)于基督、關(guān)于救贖的教義密切相關(guān)，在神學(xué)上形成瑪利亞學(xué)。教會(huì)對(duì)圣母的其他認(rèn)識(shí)，如無(wú)染原罪受孕、終生不犯本罪、卒世童貞、榮升天堂等等都源自圣母瑪利亞是天主之母這個(gè)信念。根據(jù)新約的記載，教會(huì)認(rèn)為瑪利亞在基督的救世事業(yè)中所起的獨(dú)一無(wú)二的配合作用，使圣母能夠成為恩寵的中保。也就是說(shuō)，天主因耶穌的救世之功而賜給人們的恩寵或直接

17、或間接地要通過(guò)瑪利亞而分施給人們。教會(huì)為此認(rèn)為，唯有通過(guò)瑪利亞，人們才能分享天主的恩寵。這正如通過(guò)圣子才能到達(dá)圣父那樣，唯有經(jīng)過(guò)他的母親，人們才能到達(dá)圣子。另外，教會(huì)關(guān)于圣母瑪利亞的重要教導(dǎo)還有圣母肉身靈魂同時(shí)榮升天國(guó)。關(guān)于圣母升天，教會(huì)認(rèn)為人們不應(yīng)作任何神化意義上的解釋，而應(yīng)該認(rèn)為，這是人們分享基督戰(zhàn)勝罪惡之實(shí)在的保證，是信徒通過(guò)信和愛而參與基督救贖工程的確實(shí)保證。每年的八月十五日，天主教會(huì)都要隆重慶祝圣母升天。耶穌是基督教信仰的救世主，基督教的創(chuàng)始人。其稱號(hào)基督為希伯來(lái)文彌賽亞（意為受膏者，原指上帝派來(lái)拯救以色列的救世主）之希臘文譯音。根據(jù)新約四福音書的記載，耶穌是上帝之子，由童貞女瑪麗亞

18、受圣靈感孕，生于伯利恒城客店的馬廄之中。耶穌成年后從施洗約翰受洗，并經(jīng)受了40天的考驗(yàn)，后開始在猶太各地和巴勒斯坦的加利利傳教。他率領(lǐng)其12個(gè)門徒一方面宣傳天國(guó)將臨、悔改得救的福音，一方面治病救人，扶危助困。其教義宣揚(yáng)“愛上帝愛鄰人”、“愛人如己”，并抨擊了當(dāng)時(shí)的當(dāng)權(quán)者和猶太教的某些戒規(guī)，因而遭到猶太教上層分子的忌恨。在逾越節(jié)前夕，被其門徒之一猶大所出賣，以“誘惑國(guó)民”和“僭稱猶太人之王”的罪名，被釘死在十字架上。死后第三日復(fù)活，并顯現(xiàn)于眾門徒中，第40日升天。關(guān)于耶穌其人的歷史性問(wèn)題，曾經(jīng)引起學(xué)術(shù)界的爭(zhēng)議。歷史實(shí)證主義者力圖剔除早期教會(huì)傳說(shuō)的信仰成分，要求返回有關(guān)耶穌的原始事實(shí)。而許多神學(xué)家

19、如利奇爾等則認(rèn)為不能把歷史上的耶穌與信仰中的基督分開。從公元1世紀(jì)猶太史學(xué)家約瑟弗斯的猶太古史和古羅馬史學(xué)家塔西陀的編年史中，都可以找到關(guān)于耶穌的一些資料，這些資料間接地說(shuō)明了歷史上的確出現(xiàn)過(guò)耶穌其人。Assignment一.Fill the blanks.1.Traditionally, the British culture has been characterized by its requirements of decency and civility. 2.When English economy was based on agriculture, English people we
