Isaac a Figure of Christ, January 14
使我认识祂-第15章
“亚伯拉罕因着信,被试验的时候,就把以撒献上;这便是那欢喜领受应许的,将自己独生的儿子献上。论到这儿子,曾有话说:‘从以撒生的才要称为你的后裔’”(来11:17,18)。{TMK20.1}[1]
使我认识祂-第15章
By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called.Hebrews 11:17, 18.{TMK 20.1}[1]

上帝用献以撒作为祂牺牲自己儿子的预表。以撒象征着上帝的儿子,为世人的罪孽而被献。上帝希望让亚伯拉罕对救人的福音有深刻的印象。……要使他从自己的经验中体会到,无限的上帝赐下祂儿子以拯救人类脱离灭亡,是作出何等大的克己牺牲。{TMK20.2}[2]
使我认识祂-第15章
The offering of Isaac was designed by God to prefigure the sacrifice of His Son. Isaac was a figure of the Son of God, who was offered a sacrifice for the sins of the world. God desired to impress upon Abraham the gospel of salvation of men.... He was made to understand in his own experience how great was the self-denial of the infinite God in giving His Son to rescue man from ruin.{TMK 20.2}[2]

就亚伯拉罕而言,没有什么精神痛苦可与他遵命献上他儿子所忍受的相比了。……他心碎手颤地拿着火,以撒问道:“父亲哪,火与柴都有了,但燔祭的羊羔在哪里呢”(创3:7)?亚伯拉罕当时还不能告诉他!父子二人筑起祭坛来。可怕的时刻来到了。亚伯拉罕得将自己一路上所难过的心事告诉以撒,说以撒就是那牺牲。……儿子愿意牺牲,因为他相信父亲的正直。及至一切都准备好,父亲的信心和儿子的顺服都已得到充分证明之时,上帝的使者阻止了亚伯拉罕举起来要杀他儿子的手,告诉他够了。“现在我知道你是敬畏上帝的了,因为你没有将你的儿子,就是你独生的儿子,留下不给我”(创22:12)。(《青年导报》1900年3月1日){TMK20.3}[3]
使我认识祂-第15章
To Abraham no mental torture could be equal to that which he endured in obeying the command to sacrifice his son.... With a breaking heart and unnerved hand, he takes the fire, while Isaac inquires, “Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?” (Genesis 22:7). But oh, Abraham cannot tell him now! Father and son build the altar, and the terrible moment comes for Abraham to make known to Isaac that which has agonized his soul during all that long journey—that Isaac himself is the victim.... The son submits to the sacrifice because he believes in the integrity of his father. But when everything is ready, when the faith of the father and the submission of the son are fully tested, the angel of God stays the uplifted hand of Abraham, and tells him that it is enough. “Now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me” (verse 12).30{TMK 20.3}[3]

我们的天父献上祂的爱子忍受钉十字架的痛苦。千万的天使目睹上帝的儿子所受的羞辱与心灵的痛苦,可是却没有像在以撒的事例中蒙准许加以干预。没有听见什么声音说要止住牺牲。上帝的爱子,世人的救赎主,竟被侮辱、愚弄、嘲笑、苦害,直至祂垂首而死。试问无限的主还能给我们什么更大的凭证,表明祂神圣的爱与怜悯呢?“上帝既不爱惜自己的儿子为我们众人舍了,岂不也把万物和祂一同白白的赐给我们吗”(罗8:32)?(《时兆》1875年4月1日){TMK20.4}[4]
使我认识祂-第15章
Our heavenly Father surrendered His beloved Son to the agonies of the crucifixion. Legions of angels witnessed the humiliation and soul anguish of the Son of God, but were not permitted to interpose as in the case of Isaac. No voice was heard to stay the sacrifice. God’s dear Son, the world’s Redeemer, was insulted, mocked at, derided, and tortured, until He bowed His head in death. What greater proof can the Infinite One give us of His divine love and pity? “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?” (Romans 8:32).31{TMK 20.4}[4]
