11罗十三14 总要穿上主耶稣基督,不要为肉体打算,去放纵私欲。
11Rom. 13:14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh to fulfill its lusts.
12出二八2 你要给你哥哥亚伦作圣衣,为荣耀为华美。
12Exo. 28:2 And you shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, for glory and for beauty.
13虽然我们已经浸入基督,已经在基督里面(罗六3加三27),但我们还必须在日常的生活中,穿上基督,就是凭基督活着(二20),并活出基督(腓一21),而显大基督(20)(圣经恢复本,罗十三14注1)。
13Although we have been baptized into Christ and are already in Christ (Rom. 6:3; Gal. 3:27), we must still put Him on. To put on Christ is to live by Christ (Gal. 2:20) and to live out Christ (Phil. 1:21), thus magnifying Christ (Phil. 1:20). (Rom. 13:14, footnote 1)
14祭司的衣服主要是为荣耀为华美,表征基督神圣荣耀和人性华美的彰显。荣耀与基督的神性(祂的神圣属性)有关(约一14来一3);华美与基督的人性(祂的人性美德)有关。基督的神性,由祭司衣服上的金所预表,是为着荣耀;祂的人性,由蓝色、紫色、朱红色线和细麻所预表,是为着华美。我们过彰显基督神圣荣耀和人性华美的生活,就得着圣别,并够资格成为祭司体系(出二八2注2)。
14The priestly garments, being mainly for glory and for beauty, signify the expression of Christ’s divine glory and human beauty. Glory is related to Christ’s divinity, His divine attributes (John 1:14; Heb. 1:3), and beauty, to Christ’s humanity, His human virtues. Christ’s divinity, typified by the gold of the priestly garments, is for glory, and His humanity, typified by the blue, purple, and scarlet strands and the fine linen, is for beauty. A life that expresses Christ with the divine glory and the human beauty sanctifies us and qualifies us to be the priesthood. (Exo. 28:2, footnote 2)

15对基督富有经历的保罗,也是以基督为他的彰显。他一切的生活和工作都不是为着彰显他自己,表现他的学问、才干或其他的优点特长。他所是并所作的都是为彰显基督,甚至为显大基督,使基督在他身上,不只得着彰显,甚至得着显大(生命课程卷三,二一七至二一八页)。
15Paul, who was rich in the experience of Christ, took Christ also as his expression. All his life and work were not for expressing himself or for displaying his knowledge, his ability, or his other merits and strong points. What he was and what he did were for expressing Christ, even for magnifying Christ, that Christ would be not only expressed through him but even magnified in him. (Life Lessons, vol. 3, p. 36)
16在腓立比一章十九节,保罗提到耶稣基督之灵全备的供应。如果我们让那灵全备的供应在我们里面运行,我们的日常生活就会改变。我们就会有负担凡事放胆,总叫基督显大。我们显大基督,别人就要看见祂的伟大和无限。这样显大基督,当然就是活基督。
16In Philippians 1:19 Paul mentions the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. If we allow the bountiful supply of the Spirit to work in us, our daily living will be changed. We shall be burdened to magnify Christ always and with all boldness. Through our magnifying of Christ, others will see His greatness and His unlimitedness. To magnify Christ in such a way surely is to live Him.
17保罗写腓立比书的时候,已经是个长者。毫无疑问的,狱卒盼望他因着坐监心力交瘁而死。但保罗一点也不疲乏枯竭,反倒满了喜乐,他一直在主里喜乐。我确信他一直让基督从他身上照耀出来,一直在彰显基督。这种彰显乃是宣告基督无限的伟大,并宣告基督是取之不尽、用之不竭的。
17At the time Paul wrote the book of Philippians, he was an elderly person. No doubt, the guards expected him to be exhausted by his imprisonment. But far from being exhausted, Paul was full of joy and rejoicing in the Lord. I am confident that he was shining forth Christ and expressing Him. Such an expression was a declaration of the unlimited greatness of Christ and a declaration that Christ is inexhaustible.
18我们的爱总有一天会枯竭,然而基督作为爱却是取用不竭的。照样,我们天然的忍耐是有限的,但基督作我们的忍耐是无限的。我们多少都有忍耐,但只到某个限度,过了这个限度之后,我们就会受不了,发起脾气来。例如,弟兄可能操练要对妻子有忍耐;然而,这样的忍耐是有限度的,过了这个限度之后,他就会向妻子发脾气。虽然我们天然的忍耐这样有限,但基督作为忍耐却是无穷无尽、无法测度的。
18Our love is eventually exhausted, but Christ as love is inexhaustible. Likewise, our natural patience is limited, but Christ as our patience is without limit. We all have the capacity to be patient, but only to a certain extent. Then we become provoked and angry. For example, a brother may exercise patience with his wife. Eventually, however, this patience reaches its limit, and he becomes angry with her. Although our natural patience is so limited, Christ as patience is inexhaustible and immeasurable.
19保罗在监狱中一定受了许多的虐待,但他还能够喜乐,并且向狱卒显明基督无限的伟大。保罗特别显出基督无穷无尽的忍耐。……保罗天天在主里喜乐,他的喜乐没有随着时间消减。他能够在喜乐中显出他所经历、所享受那无法测度的基督。保罗就这样彰显、展览、高举并颂扬基督。我不相信狱卒会跟保罗过不去,或是保罗会跟狱卒过不去。相反的,他是基督活的见证人,见证基督的力量、大能、忍耐、爱心和智慧,都是无限无量的。狱卒可能认为保罗很奇怪、很特别,认为他有一些东西是他们没有的。他们在保罗身上所感觉到的,乃是显大的基督。保罗在监狱里,把基督的伟大扩大的彰显了出来。……因着保罗这样显大基督,他就能胜过一切的环境(腓立比书生命读经,五七至五八页)。
19Even though Paul must have been mistreated in prison, he could be happy and display to the guards the unlimited greatness of Christ. In particular, Paul displayed Christ’s inexhaustible patience…Day by day, Paul was happy in the Lord. His happiness did not diminish as time went by. In his happiness he could show forth the immeasurable Christ he experienced and enjoyed. By this way Paul expressed, exhibited, exalted, and extolled Christ. I do not believe that Paul was offended by the jailers or that he offended them. Rather, he was a living witness of Christ, testifying of His ability, power, patience, love, and wisdom, all without measure. The guards may have considered Paul to be strange or peculiar, viewing him as possessing something which they did not have. What they sensed in Paul was Christ magnified. While he was in prison, Paul expressed the greatness of Christ in an enlarged way…By magnifying Christ in this way, Paul could overcome any situation. (Life-study of Philippians, pp. 49-50)
