第二周 周四
纲目
14 拜偶像乃是假装敬拜真神—出三二4~6王上十二26~30,参太四8~11约四23~24
1
25 拜偶像是在敬拜上的搀杂—出三二4~621~24,参林前三12
2
3三 以色列人拜了金牛犊后,摩西因为晓得主的同在不再在百姓中间,就把他的帐棚迁移,支搭在离营一段距离的地方;他的帐棚于是成了神的帐棚,因为主的同在和说话都在那里一出三三7~11
3
4四 摩西迁移他的帐棚,远离拜偶像的营之后,主与他面对面说话,好像人与同伴说话一般(11、14);神与摩西是同伴、伙伴、同伙,同有一个事业,并在一个伟大事业中有共同的权益;摩西与神是亲密的,并且他是一个懂得神心的人,他是照着神的心,并且能摸着神的心。

5约四24 神是灵;敬拜祂的,必须在灵和真实里敬拜。
5John 4:24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truthfulness.
6出三三11 耶和华与摩西面对面说话,好像人与同伴说话一般……。
6Exo. 33:11 And Jehovah would speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his companion…
7还有另一个原则:拜偶像就是装假。凡是拜偶像的人都是假装敬拜真神。……许多基督徒敬拜牛犊,却自以为是敬拜主耶稣或真神。事实上他们所敬拜的,乃是他们的享受。今天许多基督徒的敬拜是坐下吃喝,起来玩乐、歌唱,并且绕着一种享受,就是绕着金牛犊跳舞。有些弟兄会的教师点出这一点……。他们说,在西乃山下拜金牛犊乃是一种搀杂,因他们以正确的祭物并以正确的方式敬拜牛犊,仿佛牛犊是神一样。祭物没有错,方式也没有错,但敬拜的对象错了。这就是我们所说搀杂的意思(出埃及记生命读经,二一一二至二一一三页)。
7Yet another principle is that idolatry is pretension. Every idolater pretends to be worshipping the true God. Many Christians worship a calf, but they think that they are worshipping the Lord Jesus or the true God. Actually what they are worshipping is their enjoyment. Much of today’s Christian worship is a matter of sitting down to eat and drink and rising up to sport, sing, and dance around a certain kind of enjoyment, around a golden calf. Some of the Brethren teachers pointed this out…They said that the worship of the golden calf at the foot of Mount Sinai was a mixture, for a calf was worshipped as if it were God with the proper offerings and in the proper way. The offerings were right and the way was right, but the object of worship was wrong. This is what we mean by mixture. (Life-study of Exodus, pp. 1840-1841)

Today’s Reading
8出埃及三十三章七节说,“摩西将帐棚支搭在营外,离营一段距离,他称这帐棚为会幕。凡求问耶和华的,就出到营外的会幕那里去。”……主的荣耀就在会幕的门口〔9~10〕。十一节告诉我们:“耶和华与摩西面对面说话,好像人与同伴说话一般。”凡想要求问主的以色列人,就出到营外的会幕那里去。
8Exodus 33:7 says, “Now Moses would take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, some distance from the camp; and he called it the tent of meeting…” The glory of the Lord was at the door of the tent [vv. 9-10]. In verse 11 we are told that “Jehovah would speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his companion.” All the children of Israel who wanted to seek the Lord went out to the tent of meeting, which was outside the camp.
9摩西非常老练,懂得神照着祂圣别的性情,不会再留在百姓中间,因为营已经成为拜偶像的了。因此,摩西将先前在营里的帐棚支搭在营外,这个行动乃是照着神的心。
9Moses, an experienced person, knew that God according to His holiness would no longer stay among the people, for the camp had become idolatrous. Therefore, Moses took his tent, which formerly had been in the camp, and pitched it outside the camp. This action was according to God’s heart.
10这帐棚成了神的帐棚。帐幕还没有建造起来,所以摩西的帐棚就成了神与百姓之间相会的会幕。“摩西进会幕的时候,云柱就降下来,停在会幕的门口,耶和华便与摩西说话。”(9)百姓若要求问神,就必须到摩西的帐棚那里去。……就在这个时候,圣经承认摩西是神的同伴〔11〕。……“同伴”这辞包含了友谊的成分,但它更进一步包含了亲密伙伴的思想。……你若和某人是伙伴,你们就有共同的权益、共同的企业、共同的事业。……神与摩西在伟大事业中是同伙到极点。……摩西与主不仅是亲密的朋友,他们也是伙伴、同伙、同伴。
10This tent then became the tent of God. The tabernacle had not yet been constructed. Hence, Moses’ tent became the tent of meeting for the meeting between God and His people. “And whenever Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stay at the entrance of the tent, and Jehovah would speak with Moses” (v. 9). If the people wanted to seek God, they had to go to the tent of Moses. The Bible recognizes that Moses was a companion of God [33:11]…The word companion includes the elements of friendship, but it goes much further to include the thought of intimate association…If you and someone else are associates, you have a common interest, a common enterprise, in a common career…To the uttermost God and Moses were partners in a great enterprise…Moses and the Lord were not only intimate friends; they were associates, partners, companions.
11因着摩西知道神心中所存的是什么,他处理拜金牛犊的事,件件都讨神喜悦。譬如,将神用手刻了十诫的石版扔掉,是件非常严重的事,但甚至这个举动也没有得罪神,因为这是照着神的心作的。摩西领悟将那两块石版摔碎,乃是照着神的心。摩西是神的同伴,与神有亲密的关系,且知道神心上的事。因此,凡摩西所行的,都是照着神的心。
11Because Moses knew what was on God’s heart, everything he did concerning the worship of the golden calf was pleasing to God. For example, it was a very serious matter to cast away the tablets on which were engraved the commandments carved by God’s hand. But not even that act offended God, for it was done according to God’s heart. Moses realized that it was according to God’s heart to break those tablets. As a companion of God, Moses had an intimate relationship with Him and knew what was on His heart. Therefore, everything Moses did was according to the heart of God.
12由三十二章三十节至三十三章二十三节,我们学到一个严肃的功课,就是我们必须懂得神的心,也必须是一个照着神心的人。然后我们就会和摩西一样有神的同在。……对以色列人来说,神的同在……非常有限,因为他们远离神的心。然而,摩西是个非常接近神的心,并照着神心的人。这就是他有神同在到了完满地步的原因。我们都必须学习,唯有像摩西这样的人,才能作神的同伴。唯有这样的人,才能与神有共同的权益,并且被神使用,执行祂在地上的事业(出埃及记生命读经,二一五六、二一四五至二一四六、二一四八、二一六二页)。
12From 32:30—33:23 we learn the serious lesson that we need to know God’s heart and also be a person according to God’s heart. Then we shall have God’s presence as Moses did…The children of Israel had God’s presence in a very limited way, for they were far from God’s heart. Moses, however, was a person very near to God’s heart, a person according to His heart. This was the reason he could have God’s presence to the full extent. We all need to learn that only a person like Moses can be a companion of God. Only this kind of person can share a common interest with God and be used by God to carry out His enterprise on earth. (Life-study of Exodus, pp. 1878-1879, 18691871, 1883)

今日要点
14主题:远避偶像,享主同在,成为照着神心的人
14
15引经:约四24出三三11
15
161.我们需要看见拜偶像的原则:
16
17A.接续周三的内容,我们要继续看拜偶像的五个原则当中,最后两个原则:四,假装敬拜真神,拜偶像就是装假,在出三二章,以色列人对着金牛犊作一切敬拜神的事情,摩西下山时,就听见他们歌唱的声音,靠近一点就看见他们跳舞,坐下吃喝,起来玩耍,这些都是说出,他们敬拜他们的享受。
17
18B.五,在西乃山下拜金牛犊,乃是一种搀杂,因为他们以正确的祭物并以正确的方式敬拜,但对象错了,竟然是金牛犊,仿佛牛犊就是神一样,祭物没错,方式也对,但敬拜的对象错了,这就是搀杂,我们若要完全据有美地,就需要逃避拜偶像的事这五个原则。
18
192.远离拜偶像的营,顾到神的权益:
19
20A.以色列人拜了金牛犊后,摩西因为晓得主的同在不再在百姓中间,就把他的帐篷迁移,支搭在离营一段距离的地方,他从拜偶像的营分别出来,他的帐棚于是成了神的帐棚,因为主的同在和说话不在营里,而在神的帐棚里。
20
21B.在出三三11,主与摩西面对面说话,好像人与同伴说话一般,指明神与摩西乃是同伴、伙伴、同伙,同有一个事业,并在一个伟大事业中有共同的权益,这样看来,摩西乃是懂得神心的人,因此他处理拜金牛犊的事件,样样都得神的喜悦,保罗告诉哥林多信徒不要拜偶像的话,也该成为我们承受美地,必须留意之基督警戒和警告的话。
21
22应用:我们必须学习,发展与主的关系,甚至成为主的同伴、同伙、伙伴,与祂有共同的权益,为此需要祷告,主啊,使我想你所想,爱你所爱,要你所要,而能为你所用,执行你在地上的事业。
