奋斗与勇敢-第153章
(撒上15:)
“你既厌弃耶和华的命令,耶和华也厌弃你作王”(撒上15:23)。{CC 158.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
1 Samuel 15[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
扫罗因先知的谴责而惊惶,故承认了他先前所固执否认的罪;但他仍顽固地把过错推到百姓身上,说自己是因为惧怕他们,才犯了这罪。{CC 158.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king. 1 Samuel 15:23. {CC 158.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
以色列王扫罗心中的动机并不是为罪忧伤,乃是为了罪的刑罚而惧怕。……他最关切的乃是要维护自己的威信,保持百姓的忠顺。……撒母耳转身要走,王因恐惧而悲痛,扯住他的外袍想要拉他回来,但衣襟在扫罗手中撕破了。先知因此说:“今日耶和华使以色列国与你断绝,将这国赐与比你更好的人。”……{CC 158.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
Terrified by the denunciation of the prophet, Saul acknowledged his guilt, which he had before stubbornly denied; but he still persisted in casting blame upon the people, declaring that he had sinned through fear of them. {CC 158.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
但是扫罗因自己崇高的地位而犯了僭越自恃的罪,并因不信和悖逆而侮辱了上帝。虽然他在起初蒙召作王的时候有谦卑和不敢自恃的精神,但一到他的工作有了成功,他就自满起来了。……在上帝看来,牺牲的祭物本身,是没有价值的。其用意乃是帮助奉献的人表示悔改罪恶,相信基督,并保证将来必顺从上帝的律法。但献祭的人如果没有悔改,信靠和顺从的心,祭物就毫无价值了。当扫罗直接违犯了上帝的命令,并建议用上帝所注定当灭之物来献祭时,这就公然藐视了上帝的权威。那礼节反而成了对上天的一种侮辱。{CC 158.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
It was not sorrow for sin, but fear of its penalty, that actuated the king of Israel.... It was his chief anxiety to maintain his authority and retain the allegiance of the people.... As Samuel turned to depart, the king, in an agony of fear, laid hold of his mantle to hold him back, but it rent in his hands. Upon this, the prophet declared, “The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbor of thine, that is better than thou.” ... {CC 158.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
我们虽然有扫罗的罪恶及其结果摆在面前,但是还有多少人正在蹈其覆辙啊!他们一方面不肯相信并顺从耶和华的某一个诫命,但同时还坚持他们那徒具形式的宗教礼节来敬拜上帝。对于这样的礼节,上帝的圣灵是没有感应的。如果他们一直故意违犯上帝的某一条诫命,那么不管他们在遵守宗教礼节上是多么热诚,耶和华还是不能悦纳他们的。(PP.631-634){CC 158.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第153章
Saul presumed upon his exaltation, and dishonored God by unbelief and disobedience. Though when first called to the throne he was humble and self-distrustful, success made him self-confident.... The sacrificial offerings were in themselves of no value in the sight of God. They were designed to express on the part of the offerer penitence for sin and faith in Christ and to pledge future obedience to the law of God. But without penitence, faith, and an obedient heart, the offerings were worthless. When, in direct violation of God’s command, Saul proposed to present a sacrifice of that which God had devoted to destruction, open contempt was shown for the divine authority. The service would have been an insult to Heaven. {CC 158.4}[5]
