I have now spoken about personal reasons for believing in free migration and I've also talked about legal ways of thinking.
我現在說了很多關于自由移民的個人原因，并且我也談到了合法的思考方式。
At one time this Burlingame treaty was legal.
同一時間，這個蒲安成條約是合法的。
And now I just want to say a short thing about spiritual reasons for free migration.
而且我說一些簡短的關于自由移民的精神上的原因。
And I get my arguments from this wonderful book, it's by Ben Daniel and he is a Presbyterian minister.
我也從這部完美的作品中獲得論點，它出自本丹尼爾并且他是一個長老會牧師。
And the name of the book is Neighbor: Christian Encounters with Illegal Immigration.
并且這本書名為:《合法移民的基督教遭遇》。
And he reads the bible as a story of human migration, its human and spiritual migration.
他讀《圣經》作為人類移民史，人們和精神上的移民。
Starting with the exile from the garden and right there we're on our way, emigrating out of there.
從花園開始流亡生涯，我們到了這里，移民到這兒。
And oh, speaking of exile, I read again the plaque that's under the Statue of Liberty.
并談起流亡，我再看看自由女神像之間的牌匾。
She's not called the Statue of Liberty. Her name is Mother of Exile.
她不叫自由女神像，她叫流亡之母。
So the bible, we go from the emigration from the garden and then we have the exodus,
因此《圣經》上，我們從花園開始移民然后我們有《出埃及記》，
we have the journeys of all of those tribes, all over the place.
然后我們去過這些部落，所有的地方。
And then, up to the time of Jesus, I mean his parents, they were on the road;
上至耶穌時代，我想說他的父母也在路上。
they were going to another place to pay their taxes.
他們也去另一個地方付稅。
The Samaritan, the Good Samaritan, he was not one of the people that he was around;
撒馬利亞人，好的撒瑪利亞人他不是一個普通人;
he was an alien a samaritan among other people.
而是一個外來的撒瑪利亞人。
And Ben Daniel writes about that samaritan very specially because he asks "What do we owe our migrating neighbors?"
并且丹尼爾筆下的這個人非常的特別，因為他問“我們欠我們遷徙的鄰居什么?”
And there are spiritual reasons why we all do these journeys.
并且有精神上的原因為什么我們都做這些旅行。
