“我必使人比精金还少,使人比俄斐纯金更少”(赛13:12)。{BLJ144.1}[1]

I will make a mortal more rare than fine gold, a man more than the golden wedge of Ophir.Isaiah 13:12, NKJV.{BLJ 144.1}[1]
效法主耶稣-第134章
如果大卫把那分别为圣的饼拿来充饥是可以的,那么门徒在安息日的神圣光阴之内,掐麦穗来满足他们的需要,也不能算为不对的了。再说祭司们逢安息日在圣殿里所办的事比平日更多。若在属世的事务上同样劳力就是犯罪了。然而祭司的工作是为上帝服务。他们是在执行那些指着基督救赎之功的礼节,所以他们的劳力是与安息日的宗旨相合的。如今基督亲自来了,门徒既作基督的工,就是为上帝服务。所以凡为完成这工作所必需的,在安息日都可以作了。{BLJ144.2}[2]
效法主耶稣-第134章
If it was right for David to satisfy his hunger by eating of the bread that had been set apart to a holy use, then it was right for the disciples to supply their need by plucking the grain upon the sacred hours of the Sabbath. Again, the priests in the Temple performed greater labor on the Sabbath than upon other days. The same labor in secular business would be sinful; but the work of the priests was in the service of God. They were performing those rites that pointed to the redeeming power of Christ, and their labor was in harmony with the object of the Sabbath. But now Christ Himself had come. The disciples, in doing the work of Christ, were engaged in God’s service, and that which was necessary for the accomplishment of this work it was right to do on the Sabbath day.{BLJ 144.2}[2]

基督要使门徒和祂的仇敌们明白,为上帝服务是首要的。上帝在这个世界上工作的目的,就是救赎世人;所以凡在安息日需要作成的救人工作,是与安息日的律法相符合的。最后,耶稣又宣称自己是“安息的主,”──一位超乎一切问题和一切律法的主,用这句话来结束祂的讲论。这位至高的审判者,就根据门徒被控干犯的律法宣告他们无罪。{BLJ144.3}[3]
效法主耶稣-第134章
Christ would teach His disciples and His enemies that the service of God is first of all. The object of God’s work in this world is the redemption of humankind; therefore that which is necessary to be done on the Sabbath in the accomplishment of this work is in accord with the Sabbath law. Jesus then crowned His argument by declaring Himself the “Lord of the Sabbath,” One above all question and above all law. This infinite Judge acquits the disciples of blame, appealing to the very statutes they are accused of violating....{BLJ 144.3}[3]

在另一个安息日,耶稣进了会堂,看见一个枯干了一只手的人。法利赛人热切地注意耶稣,看祂要作什么。救主明知祂在安息日治病,就必被认为犯了律法,但祂毫不迟疑地拆毁有碍安息日的种种遗传规例的围墙。耶稣吩咐那病人站起来。又问众人说:“在安息日行善行恶,救命害命,哪样是可以的呢?”犹太人有句格言说:有行善的机会而不行善,便是行恶;疏忽救生,便是杀生。所以救主就用拉比们自己的武器来对付他们。“他们都不作声。耶稣怒目周围看他们,忧愁他们的心刚硬,就对那人说:伸出手来。他把手一伸,手就复了原”(可3:4-5)。(DA.285,286){BLJ144.4}[4]

Upon another Sabbath, as Jesus entered a synagogue, He saw there a man who had a withered hand. The Pharisees watched Him, eager to see what He would do. The Savior well knew that in healing on the Sabbath He would be regarded as a transgressor, but He did not hesitate to break down the wall of traditional requirements that barricaded the Sabbath. Jesus bade the afflicted man stand forth, and then asked, “Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill?” It was a maxim among the Jews that a failure to do good, when one had opportunity, was to do evil; to neglect to save life was to kill. Thus Jesus met the rabbis on their own ground. “But they held their peace. And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other” (Mark 3:4, 5).—The Desire of Ages, 285, 286.{BLJ 144.4}[4]
