效法主耶稣-第20章
“这称为我名下的子民,若是自卑,祷告,寻求我的面,转离他们的恶行,我必从天上垂听,赦免他们的罪,医治他们的地”(代下7:14)。{BLJ26.1}[1]

If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.2 Chronicles 7:14, NKJV.{BLJ 26.1}[1]

希西家和他的同人这时所恢复的礼节,原是从前圣殿中所奉行的。当初所罗门在奉献圣殿时,曾发出预言性的祷告说:“你的民以色列若得罪你,败在仇敌面前,又归向你,承认你的名,在这殿里祈求祷告;求祢在天上垂听,赦免祢民以色列的罪”(王上8:33,34)。{BLJ26.2}[2]

In the prophetic prayer offered at the dedication of the Temple whose services Hezekiah and his associates were now restoring, Solomon had prayed, “When thy people Israel be smitten down before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house: then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people Israel” (1 Kings 8:33, 34).{BLJ 26.2}[2]

当时有上帝悦纳所罗门祷告的印证;因为祈祷完毕时,有火从天上降下,烧尽燔祭和其他祭物,并有耶和华的荣光充满那殿(见代下7:1)。当夜耶和华向所罗门显现,告诉他,他的祷告已蒙垂听,并说明凡在圣殿敬拜的人必可蒙上帝的怜悯。{BLJ26.3}[3]

The seal of divine approval had been placed upon this prayer; for at its close fire had come down from heaven to consume the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord had filled the Temple. (See?2 Chronicles 7:1.) And by night the Lord had appeared to Solomon to tell him that his prayer had been heard, and that mercy would be shown those who should worship there....{BLJ 26.3}[3]

以色列人已经多年没有遵守逾越节为一个全国性的节期了。所罗门死后国家的分裂,使这一件事似乎难以实行。但那降在十个支派身上的可怕刑罚,唤醒了一些人心中对于更美事物的愿望;同时众先知所讲动人的信息已经有了相当的效果。许多怙恶不悛的人轻蔑地不肯领受;然而有一些恳切寻求上帝并愿意更清楚地明白祂旨意的人,“自卑,来到耶路撒冷”(代下30:10,11)。{BLJ26.4}[4]

For many years the Passover had not been observed as a national festival. The division of the kingdom after the close of Solomon’s reign had made this seem impracticable. But the terrible judgments befalling the ten tribes were awakening in the hearts of some a desire for better things; and the stirring messages of the prophets were having their effect.... The impenitent turned lightly aside; nevertheless some, eager to seek God for a clearer knowledge of His will, “humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem” (2 Chronicles 30:10, 11).—Prophets and Kings, 335-337.{BLJ 26.4}[4]

被击打的以色列唯有一个的救治之方──转离那招致全能者责罚的罪恶,并全心归向耶和华。上帝早已应许他们:“我若使天闭塞不下雨,或使蝗虫吃这地的出产,或使瘟疫流行在我民中;这称为我名下的子民若是自卑,祷告,寻求我的面,转离他们的恶行;我必从天上垂听,赦免他们的罪,医治他们的地”(代下7:13-14)。上帝之所以在以色列没有发起决定性的改革之前不降雨露,就是为了要实现这种良好的结果。(PK128){BLJ26.5}[5]

For stricken Israel there was but one remedy—a turning away from the sins that had brought upon them the chastening hand of the Almighty, and a turning to the Lord with full purpose of heart. To them had been given the assurance, “If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:13, 14). It was to bring to pass this blessed result that God continued to withhold from them the dew and the rain until a decided reformation should take place.—Prophets and Kings, 128.{BLJ 26.5}[5]
