 *(From: LUKE #30 - 17:1-10)*


 E. 17:1-10 THREE DUTIES OF DISCIPLES WHO ARE SERVANTS

1. 17:1-4 DEAL WITH THOSE CAUSING STUMBLING

a. 17:1 JESUS' WORD ON OFFENCES

*And he said unto his :disciples, It is impossible but that :stumblings
should come;*

EIpen de pros tous ma-th*e*TAS auTOU, A-NENdekTON [418] es-tin tou ta
SKANda-la m*e* elTHEIN;

*but woe to him, through whom they come!*

pl*e*n ouAI [3759], di' hou ERche-tai!


 b. 17:2 THE MILLSTONE ANALOGY

*Well for him if a millstone were hanged about his :neck,*

lu-si-teLEI [3081] auT*O* ei LIthos mu-liKOS [3684] peRIkei-tai peRI ton
TRAch*e*-lon [5137] auTOU,

*and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should stumble one of
these :little ones.*

kai ERrip-tai [4496] eis t*e*n THAlas-san, *e* HIna skan-daLIs*e* t*o*n miKR
*O*N [3398] TOUt*o*n HEna.


 c. 17:3 SIN - REBUKE - REPENTANCE - FORGIVENESS

*Take heed to yourselves: if your :brother sin, rebuke him;*

proSEche-te [4337] he-auTOIS: eAN haMARt*e* ho a-delPHOS sou, e-piTIm*e*-son
[2068] auT*O*;

*and if he repent, forgive him.*

kai eAN me-ta-no*E*s*e* [3340], Aphes [863] auT*O*.


 d. 17:4 REPETITION OF THIS ORDER!

*And if he sin against you seven times in the day,*

kai eAN hepTAkis t*e*s h*e*MEras ha-marT*E*s*e* eis se,

*and seven times turn again to you, saying, I repent; you shall forgive him.
*

kai hepTAkis e-piSTREps*e* [1994] pros se, LEg*o*n, Me-ta-no*O* [3340]; aPH*
E*seis [863] auT*O*.


 2. 17:5-6 GREAT FAITH NOT NEEDED - ACT ON WHAT YOU HAVE

a. 17:5* And the apostles said to the Lord, Increase our faith.*

Kai EIpan hoi aPOsto-loi t*o* KuRI*o*, PROSthes [4369] huMIN PIstin.


 b. 17:6 THE NATURE OF FAITH

*And the Lord said, If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed,*

EIpen de ho KUri-os, Ei Eche-te PIstin h*o*s KOKkon [2848] siNApe-*o*s
[4615],

*you would say to this :sycamore tree, Be rooted up,*

eLEge-te an t*e* su-kaMIn*o* [4807] TAUt*e*, E-kriZ*O*th*e*-ti [1610],

*and be planted in the sea; and it would obey you.*

kai phuTEUth*e*-ti [5542] en t*e* thaLASs*e*; kai huP*E*kou-sen [5219] an
huMIN.


 3. 17:7-10 PRINCIPLE: WE ONLY DO OUR DUTY WHEN WE SERVE

a. 17:7-8 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LORD AND SERVANTS

*But who of you, having a bondman plowing or keeping sheep,*

Tis de ex huM*O*N, DOUlon [1401] Ech*o*n a-ro-tri*O*Nta [722] *e*poiMAInon-ta
[4165],

*who will say unto him, when he is come in from the field, *

hos ei-selTHONti ek tou aGROU, eREI auT*O*,

*Come straightway and sit down to meat;*

EuTHE*o*s pa-relTH*O*N aNApe-se [377];

8* but will not rather say to him, Make ready so that I may sup,*

all' ouCHI eREI auT*O*, HeTOIma-son [2090] ti deipN*E*s*o* [1172],

*and gird yourself, and serve me, till I eat and drink;*

kai pe-ri-z*o*SAme-nos, di-aKOnei moi, HE*o*s PHAg*o* kai PI*o*;

*and afterward you shall eat and drink?*

kai meTA TAUta PHAge-sai kai PIe-sai su?


 b. 17:9 * Does he thank the bondman because he did the things commanded?*

m*e* Echei CHArin t*o* DOUl*o* HOti ePOI*e*-sen ta di-a-tachTHENta [1299]?


 c. 17:10 THE OBEDIENT SERVANT

*So you also, when you shall have done all the things commanded you,*

HOUt*o*s kai huMEIS, HOtan poi*E*s*e*-te panTA ta di-a-tachTHENta huMIN,

*say [that], We are unprofitable bondmen; we have done what was our duty to
do.*

LEge-te [HOti], DOUloi aCHREI-OI [888] es-men; ho *o*PHEIlo-men [3784] poi*E
*sai pe-poi*E*ka-men.


 *NOTE**: (2010-12-15) - 17:1-4 - *SKANda-la - *stumblings* - are very
serious incidents to bring upon fellow believers, especially children.
Sexual sin and abuse is serious enough, but there are other ways that hurt
a brother. And - what we do to a fellow believer - we do to Christ! - for *
He* is one with every member of His spiritual body.


 Yet, if a brother sin against us, *we* are to rebuke (e-piTIm*e*-sin) him.
We *are* our brother's keeper. We can *not* be like Cain who murdered his
brother Abel. And no matter how many times a rebuked brother repents and
asks for our forgiveness - we *must* grant it. *God* is all-forgiving this
way. We see it in Jesus, Who is God manifest!


 17:5-6 - The apostles immediately recognized that they needed
*increased*faith to forgive a repenting brother after sinning and
being rebuked -
especially if he repeats this a number of times. Peter in another Gospel
asked Jesus if he could *fix* his brother after 7 such times of forgiving
him. No, Jesus said, not even 70 + 7! - which it would be impossible to see
that many sins in a day. And Jesus said faith as small as a grain of
mustard seed - will meet the need of that above.


 17:7-10 - It is important for us to see ourselves as servants! Jesus was *
this* to His Father in His earthly life. Four times in the book of Isaiah
Jesus is prophetically foretold in the four “*Servant* Songs.” If
*Jesus*is our example in all of this, then we can certainly obtain
grace to
*also* live like Him down here. And - when we've done *all* that is our
duty to do - it *yet* is but our duty, and does not merit praise. Yes - we
do need grace for this. But just think - Jesus as the Eternal Son of God
manifested this earthly type of servant spirit for 33 years down here. On
the Mount of Transfiguration we see Him as He was with the Father before
His Incarnation. He volunteered for this position. He came to earth not to
be ministered to - *but to minister*, and to give His life a ransom for
many! Oh - what grace! Oh - what love! And when He is allowed by us to live
His life in and through us supremely by His Spirit - then *we too* on earth
can be like Him in those 33 years! J.A.Watt
