开朗的宗教-第289章
“犹大人有光荣,欢喜快乐而得尊贵。王的谕旨所到的各省各城,犹大人都欢喜快乐,设摆筵宴,以那日为吉日。那国的人民,有许多因惧怕犹大人,就入了犹大籍”(斯8:16,17)。[1]

The Jews had light, and gladness, and joy, and honour. And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king’s commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.Esther 8:16, 17.{RRe 290.1}[1]

那多方善待犹太人的大流士一世为薛西斯所接替。当他在位的时候,那些不肯听从逃命信息的犹大人,终于临到了一次可怕的危机。他们不肯善用上帝为他们所预备的逃生机会,这时就面临死亡的威胁。……[2]

Darius Hystaspes, under whose reign the Jews had been shown marked favor, was succeeded by Xerxes the Great. It was during his reign that those of the Jews who had failed of heeding the message to flee, were called upon to face a terrible crisis. Having refused to take advantage of the way of escape God had provided, now they were brought face to face with death....{RRe 290.2}[2]

In the providence of God, Esther, a Jewess who feared the Most High, had been made queen of the Medo-Persian kingdom. Mordecai was a near relative of hers. In their extremity, they decided to appeal to Xerxes in behalf of their people....{RRe 290.3}[3]

随之而发生的事件──以斯帖晋谒国王,王对于她的特别宠爱,王与王后以哈曼为贵宾的筵席,王的失眠,末底改当众所受的尊荣,以及哈曼毒计被揭穿后的羞辱与挫败──这一切都是大家所熟悉的故事。上帝为祂悔改的子民大施拯救,结果王发布了第二道旨令,让犹太人为自己的生存作战,这道旨令由“被王命催促,急忙起行”的驿使迅速传遍全国。“王的谕旨所到的各省各城,犹大人都欢喜快乐,设摆筵宴,以那日为吉日。那国的人民,有许多因惧怕犹大人,就入了犹太籍”(斯8:14,17)。(PK 600-602)[4]

The events that followed in rapid succession,—the appearance of Esther before the king, the marked favor shown her, the banquets of the king and queen with Haman as the only guest, the troubled sleep of the king, the public honor shown Mordecai, and the humiliation and fall of Haman upon the discovery of his wicked plot,—all these are parts of a familiar story. God wrought marvelously for His penitent people; and a counter decree issued by the king, allowing them to fight for their lives, was rapidly communicated to every part of the realm by mounted couriers, who were “hastened and pressed on by the king’s commandment.” “And in every province, and in every city, whithersoever the king’s commandment and his decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a good day. And many of the people of the land became Jews; for the fear of the Jews fell upon them.”—Prophets and Kings, 600-602.{RRe 290.4}[4]
