The compassionate-love Jesus feels moves him to solve the problems of the suffering. Hence, everything Jesus thought, said, or did in his mission to salvage humankind was motivated by compassionate love. Jesus demonstrated that his mission-mandate should be done on the platform of genuine compassionate love. That is why, in the gospels, he was described as always being moved by compassion. Jesus demonstrated that his followers are to carry on the mission-mandate of the church in compassionate love. But in this era, the church has undergone a paradigm shift from this model of Jesus’ compassion. The problem of the church being less compassionate is hindering the contemporary church from achieving mission-desired goals. Consequently, this article studies the concept of compassion as an underlying theme in the gospel of Matthew and its implications for the mission-mandate of the church in Nigeria. Through the application of the redaction-criticism method of doing biblical exegesis, the study found that the church in Nigeria lacks the model of compassion which Jesus exemplified.

在马太福音中理解同情(马太福音14:13-21)

富有同情心的耶稣感到感动了他解决苦难的问题。因此,耶稣为拯救人类所做的一切思想,说出或所做的一切,都是出于同情心的爱。耶稣表明他的任务授权应该在真正富有同情心的爱的平台上完成。这就是为什么在福音书中,他一直被同情者感动。耶稣表明他的追随者要以同情的爱心继续执行教会的使命。但是在这个时代,教会经历了从耶稣的同情心模式转变的范式。教会缺乏同情心的问题阻碍了当代教会实现使命目标。所以,本文研究了同情的概念,将其作为马太福音中的基本主题,及其对尼日利亚教会的宣教使命的影响。通过应用圣经批评的删节批评方法的研究,研究发现尼日利亚的教会缺乏耶稣所举例说明的同情模式。
