匹夫匹妇

from 成语典故

匹夫匹妇 【释义】指普通的老百姓。 【出处】战国•孟轲《孟子•万章》 战国时,一天万章问老师孟子说:“有人讲商汤的贤臣伊尹先是做别人的陪嫁奴隶, 后当汤的厨子,取得了汤的信任,才做到宰相的。不知是否真的?” 孟子说:“不完全是这样。伊尹曾在莘国的郊外种地,商朝的开国之君曾派人去聘请他,他却悠闲自得地说:‘我干吗要接受别人的聘请呢?这样不是很好吗?我终日无拘无束,在田野之中获得了许多乐趣!’汤再三派人去请他。最后,伊尹全然改变态度说:‘既然上天生了我,赋予我智慧,我就有责任启发那些缺少智慧的人。唉,像这样的事情, 我不应该放弃啊!’” 万章说:“伊尹真是一位贤臣!” 孟子说:“不错,在他看来,天下如果有一夫一妇(匹夫匹妇)不蒙受尧舜的恩泽,那就如同自己把他们推进深沟中一样。后来他到了汤的身边,说服了汤讨伐残暴的夏,拯救了广大民众。伊尹是真正的圣人啊!圣人的行为不完全相同,有的远离君主,洁身自好;有的 在君主身边,帮助他做好事。所以,我认为伊尹不是以当君主厨子的身份去阿谀奉承,而是宣传尧舜之道。”
