4774.“请认一认,是你儿子的外衣不是”表是否有任何相似之处。这从“认一认,是不是”的含义清楚可知,“认一认,是不是”是指它是否相似。这些话和前后文密切相关。也就是说,它们与被歪曲的良善与真理和教会的纯正良善与真理所进行的比较有关,这种比较由他们把蘸了血的外衣带给他们的父亲来表示(4772节)。这解释了为何“请认一认,是你儿子的外衣不是”表示他要比较它是否相似,或是否有任何相似之处。
Potts(1905-1910) 4774
4774. Know I pray whether it be thy son's tunic or not. That this signifies whether there was a likeness, is evident from the signification of "knowing whether it be," as being whether it is like. This refers to what precedes, and follows from it, namely, that a comparison was instituted of falsified goods and truths with the genuine goods and truths of the church, as is signified by their bringing the tunic dipped in blood to their father (n. 4772). Hence in this passage, by "know I pray whether it be thy son's tunic," is signified that he should compare whether it was like, or whether there was a likeness.
Elliott(1983-1999) 4774
4774. 'Recognize now whether this is your son's tunic or not' means whether there was any likeness. This is clear from the meaning of 'recognize whether this is' as whether it is like. These words are closely connected with the ones that come both before them and after them. That is to say, they relate to the comparison that was brought about of falsified goods and truths with the genuine goods and truths of the Church, meant by the statement that they brought the tunic which had been dipped in blood to their father, 4772. This explains why 'recognize now whether this is your son's tunic' means that a comparison should be made to see whether it was like, that is, whether there was any likeness.
Latin(1748-1756) 4774
4774. `Agnosce quaeso an tunica filii tui haec, si non': quod significet num similitudo, constat ex significatione `agnoscere an sit' quod sit num simile: se referunt haec ad illa quae praecedunt, et ab illis sequuntur, quod nempe collatio institueretur falsificatorum bonorum et verorum cum bonis et veris genuinis Ecclesiae, quae significantur per quod `adduxerunt tunicam sanguine intinctam ad patrem illorum', n. 4772; inde hic per `agnosce quaeso an tunica filii tui haec' significatur quod conferret num simile seu num similitudo.
