Keeping the Sabbath, May 3
高举主耶稣-第124章
“我是耶和华你们的上帝,你们要顺从我的律例,谨守遵行我的典章,且以我的安息日为圣。这日在我与你们中间为证据,使你们知道我是耶和华你们的上帝”(结20:19,20)。{LHU137.1}
高举主耶稣-第124章
I am the Lord your God; follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. Keep my Sabbaths holy, that they may be a sign between us. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God.Ezekiel 20:19, 20, NIV.{LHU 137.1}[1]
高举主耶稣-第124章
在出埃及的时候,上帝曾将安息日的制度显著地摆在祂的子民的面前。当他们还在埃及为奴时,他们的督工曾加添他们每周工作的定额,企图勉强他们在安息日作工。……但以色列人终于从奴役中被拯救出来。上帝又领他们到了一个地方,使他们可以毫无阻挠地遵守耶和华一切的律例。{LHU137.2}
高举主耶稣-第124章
At the time of the Exodus from Egypt, the Sabbath institution was brought prominently before the people of God. While they were still in bondage, their taskmasters had attempted to force them to labor on the Sabbath by increasing the amount of work required each week.... But the Israelites were delivered from bondage and brought to a place where they might observe unmolested all the precepts of Jehovah.{LHU 137.2}[2]
高举主耶稣-第124章
上帝又在西奈山上颁布了律法;把它的副本,就是“上帝用指头写的”两块石版(出31:18),交给摩西。以色列人在旷野漂流的四十年中,上帝第七日不降吗哪并神奇地保存预备日所降的双份吗哪不致臭坏,藉此经常将祂所指定的安息日提醒以色列人。{LHU137.3}
高举主耶稣-第124章
At Sinai the law was spoken; and a copy of it, on two tables of stone, “written with the finger of God,” was delivered to Moses (Exodus 31:18). And through nearly forty years of wandering the Israelites were constantly reminded of God’s appointed rest day, by the withholding of the manna every seventh day and the miraculous preservation of the double portion that fell on the preparation day.{LHU 137.3}[3]
高举主耶稣-第124章
在以色列人进入应许之地以前,摩西又劝勉他们“守安息日为圣日”(申5:12)。耶和华的旨意是要以色列人忠心遵守安息日的命令,不断地记念自己对于创造主和救赎主所应负的责任。如果他们常以正确的精神遵守安息日,拜偶像的恶习就不能存在;但如果他们将十诫的要求置于脑后,认为不再有遵守的必要,那么,创造主就要被人忘记,世人也就要去敬拜假神了。{LHU137.4}
高举主耶稣-第124章
Before entering the Promised Land, the Israelites were admonished by Moses to “keep the sabbath day to sanctify it” (Deuteronomy 5:12). The Lord designed that by a faithful observance of the Sabbath command, Israel should continually be reminded of their accountability to Him as their Creator and their Redeemer. While they should keep the Sabbath in the proper spirit, idolatry could not exist; but should the claims of this precept of the Decalogue be set aside as no longer binding, the Creator would be forgotten and men would worship other gods.{LHU 137.4}[4]
高举主耶稣-第124章
上帝说:“又将我的安息日赐给他们,好在我与他们中间为证据,使他们知道我耶和华是叫他们成为圣的。”然而“他们厌弃我的典章,不顺从我的律例,干犯我的安息日;他们的心随从自己的偶像。”所以当祂恳劝他们归向祂时,祂叫他们重新注意守安息日为圣的重要性。祂说:“我是耶和华你们的上帝;你们要顺从我的律例,谨守遵行我的典章,且以我的安息日为圣;这日在我与你们中间为证据,使你们知道我是耶和华你们的上帝”(结20:12;16,19-20)。……{LHU137.5}
高举主耶稣-第124章
“I gave them my sabbaths,” God declared, “to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.” Yet “they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.” And in His appeal to them to return to Him, He called their attention anew to the importance of keeping the Sabbath holy. “I am the Lord your God,” He said; “walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the Lord your God” (Ezekiel 20:12, 16, 19, 20)....{LHU 137.5}[5]
高举主耶稣-第124章
基督在地上传道的时候,曾强调遵守安息日的本分;祂在一切教训中都尊重祂自己所颁布的制度。当时安息日被人曲解,以致遵守这日只反映自私和专横之人的品性,没有反映上帝的品德。基督废弃了那些自称认识上帝之人所用以误表祂的虚假教训。祂虽然受到拉比们无情的反对,但祂一点也没有遵从他们的规条,而只知勇往直前,依照上帝的律法遵守安息日。(PK180-183).{LHU137.6}
高举主耶稣-第124章
Christ, during His earthly ministry, emphasized the binding claims of the Sabbath; in all His teaching He showed reverence for the institution He Himself had given. In His days the Sabbath had become so perverted that its observance reflected the character of selfish and arbitrary men rather than the character of God. Christ set aside the false teaching by which those who claimed to know God had misrepresented Him. Although followed with merciless hostility by the rabbis, He did not even appear to conform to their requirements, but went straight forward keeping the Sabbath according to the law of God (Prophets and Kings, 180-183).{LHU 137.6}[6]
