Elijah Before Ahab, July 21
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
(王上18:1-20)
“以利亚说:使以色列遭灾的不是我;乃是你和你父家,因为你们离弃耶和华的诫命,去随从巴力”(王上18:18)。{CC 208.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
1 Kings 18:1-20[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
经过长年的干旱与饥荒,以利亚恳切地祈求,巴不得以色列人的心能转离偶像,效忠上帝。先知在忍耐地等候着,同时耶和华的刑罚重重地降于全地。……{CC 208.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father’s house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and thou hast followed Baalim. 1 Kings 18:18. {CC 208.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
最后,“过了许久,……耶和华的话临到以利亚,说:你去,使亚哈得见你;我要降雨在地上。”……{CC 208.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
Through the long years of drought and famine, Elijah prayed earnestly that the hearts of Israel might be turned from idolatry to allegiance to God. Patiently the prophet waited, while the hand of the Lord rested heavily on the stricken land.... {CC 208.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
亚哈王和以利亚面面相对了。亚哈虽然满心愤恨,但他一来到以利亚面前,就似乎失魂落魄,软弱无能了。在他所讲的头一句期期艾艾的话中,他无意地显明了他内心的感想:“使以色列遭灾的就是你么”(王上18:17)?亚哈明知他“头上的天”之所以“变为铜”,乃是由于上帝的吩咐,但他还想把全地遭受严重刑罚的责任推在以利亚头上。……{CC 208.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
At last, “after many days,” the word of the Lord came to Elijah, “Go, show thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.” ... {CC 208.3}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
以利亚问心无愧地站立在亚哈面前,他既不为自己请求原谅,也不向亚哈说谄媚的话。他不把旱灾将要过去的好消息告诉王,来消除他的愤怒。他也不必向他辩解道歉。他却满怀义怒,为上帝的荣耀大发热心,随即将亚哈王的控告反过来控告他,无畏地向王声明:那使以色列遭受这次可怕灾祸的,乃是他的罪,和他祖先的罪。……{CC 208.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
The king and the prophet stand face to face. Though Ahab is filled with passionate hatred, yet in the presence of Elijah he seems unmanned, powerless. In his first faltering words, “Art thou he that troubleth Israel?” he unconsciously reveals the inmost feelings of his heart. Ahab knew that it was by the word of God that the heavens had become as brass, yet he sought to cast upon the prophet the blame for the heavy judgments resting on the land.... {CC 208.4}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
今日正需要听到对于罪恶的严正责备;因为可怕的罪恶已把百姓和上帝隔开了。……一般传道人所讲不痛不痒的道理,不能在听众心上留下深刻的印象。守望者所吹的,通常都是“无定的号声“(林前14:8)。所以人们也就没有因上帝圣言锐利的真理而感到扎心。……{CC 208.6}[6]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
Standing in conscious innocence before Ahab, Elijah makes no attempt to excuse himself or to flatter the king. Nor does he seek to evade the king’s wrath by the good news that the drought is almost over. He has no apology to offer. Indignant, and jealous for the honor of God, he casts back the imputation of Ahab, fearlessly declaring to the king that it is his sins, and the sins of his fathers, that have brought upon Israel this terrible calamity.... {CC 208.5}[6]

上帝呼召一班象以利亚,拿单、施洗约翰的人,──一班忠心传讲祂的信息,不顾后果,虽然必须牺牲一切,仍能勇敢讲说真理的人。(PK133-142){CC 208.7}[7]
奋斗与勇敢-第203章
Today there is need of the voice of stern rebuke; for grievous sins have separated the people from God.... The smooth sermons so often preached make no lasting impression; the trumpet does not give a certain sound. Men are not cut to the heart by the plain, sharp truths of God’s word.... {CC 208.6}[7]
