This study of Jesus’ healing of the centurion’s servant (Matthew 8:5–13) draws attention to some neglected Christological details. This study offers a fresh explanation of how Matthew uses ambiguity and clarity about who Jesus is in various levels of narrative context. Specifically, Matthew’s characterization of the centurion uses the ambiguous title of ‘Lord’ alongside clear actions of faith to reveal Jesus’ identity. This study concludes that Jesus participates in the identity of Yahweh, who has absolute and divine power to command his army of angels to heal people and remove demons, even without his presence.

马太福音 8：5-13 中天使军队的领主和迦百农的百夫长

这项关于耶稣医治百夫长仆人的研究（马太福音 8：5-13）引起了人们对一些被忽视的基督论细节的关注。这项研究为马太如何在不同层次的叙述背景中使用模糊性和清晰性来说明耶稣是谁，提供了新的解释。具体而言，马太对百夫长的描述使用了“主”这个模棱两可的称号以及明确的信仰行为来揭示耶稣的身份。这项研究得出的结论是，耶稣参与了耶和华的身份，他拥有绝对和神圣的力量，可以指挥他的天使大军，即使没有他的存在，也能医治人并驱除恶魔。
