1贰 石榴和金铃是在大祭司外袍(表征召会)底边的部分—出二八33~34
1
2一 召会在她的人性里该满了生命,这就是用细麻作的石榴的意义。
2
3二 召会有人性为着彰显生命的丰满,也有神性为着发出金铃的声音:
3
41 生命的丰满彰显在召会的人性里,而警告的声音则彰显在召会的神性(金铃)里。
4
52 首先我们有生命丰满的彰显,然后有金铃的响声,那就是出自召会之神性的说话。

63 生命的华美彰显在我们的人性里,并有神圣的声音从金铃而来,这些乃是正确召会生活的标记。

7出二八33~34 袍子周围底边上,要用蓝色、紫色、朱红色线作石榴。在袍子周围的石榴中间,要有金铃,一个金铃一个石榴,一个金铃一个石榴,在袍子周围的底边上。
7Exo. 28:33-34 And you shall make on its hem pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet strands, all around its hem, and bells of gold between them all around: a golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all around.
8出埃及二十八章三十三节说到石榴和铃,三十四节说到“一个金铃一个石榴”。作衣服时,石榴要在铃以先,而尽功用时,铃要在石榴以先。
8Exodus 28:33 speaks of pomegranates and bells, and verse 34, of “a golden bell and a pomegranate.” When the garment was being made, the pomegranates came before the bells. But in function, the bells come before the pomegranates.
9袍子的底边是丰满的标记,而基督的丰满就是召会;所以袍子底边上的石榴和铃必定与召会有关。
9The skirts are a sign of fullness, and the fullness of Christ is the church. Therefore, the pomegranates and bells on the skirts must be matters related to the church.
10石榴是用表征人性的麻作的,而铃是用表征神性的金作的。……在召会生活里,我们总是有人性与神性(出埃及记生命读经,一六五二至一六五三页)。
10The pomegranates were made of linen signifying humanity, and the bells were made of gold signifying divinity…In the church life we always have humanity and divinity. (Life-study of Exodus, pp. 1441-1442)

11你若看见一个成熟的石榴连同其子粒,就会得着一个印象:石榴满了生命。在圣经里,石榴表征生命的丰满。召会在她的人性里该满了生命。这就是用麻作的石榴的意义。
11If you see a ripe pomegranate with its seeds, you will receive an impression that a pomegranate is full of life. In the Bible pomegranates signify the fullness of life. The church should be full of life in her humanity. This is the significance of pomegranates made of linen.
12生命的丰满彰显在召会的人性里,而警告的声音则彰显在召会的神性里,正如金铃所表征的。召会正确的说话,总是来自她的神性。……这样的声音既悦耳又柔和,因它不是来自钢铃,乃是来自金铃。……我能见证在召会生活的年日里,许多时候我因着青年弟兄姊妹的说话而得着警告。……我似乎听见一个小金铃的响声,警告我不要随便地行事。
12Fullness of life is expressed in the church’s humanity, but the voice of warning is expressed in the church’s divinity, as signified by the golden bells. The proper speaking of the church always comes from her divinity…Such a sound is pleasant and gentle, for it comes not from a steel bell but from a golden one. I can testify that throughout the years in the church life, I have been warned a number of times by the speaking of young brothers and sisters…It seems that I hear the sounding of a little golden bell warning me not to walk carelessly.
13当我们都在我们的人性里,把作生命之基督的丰满彰显出来时,我们中间就会有许多的金铃。然后就有神的说话,神的声音就借着召会的神性彰显出来。我们每个人里面都有一些神性;从神性的这种成分里发出微小的声音,就像一个小铃的响声一样。……很难说出哪个在先—是铃的响声,还是生命丰满的彰显?在召会里有这二者,作为基督长袍下垂的部分。
13When we all express the fullness of Christ as life in our humanity, there will be among us many golden bells. Then there will be God’s speaking, God’s voice expressed through the divinity of the church. In each of us there is a certain amount of divinity. From this element of divinity a sound comes out in a small scale, like the ringing of a little bell…It is difficult to tell which comes first, the sounding of the bells or the expression of the fullness of life. Both are in the church as the long train of Christ.
14在召会里,我们不是在人的控制之下,……然而,我们都被石榴和铃所控制。……正确召会生活的……标记乃是石榴和铃。……石榴和铃乃是交互排列,一个铃一个石榴〔出二八34〕。这指明神圣的声音与神圣的生命交互相关。……在召会生活里若只有铃而没有石榴,就会有闲谈和批评,而没有金铃的响声。但如果石榴和铃交互排列,闲谈和批评就会消失;反之,会有正确、神圣的声音。
14In the church we are not under human control…However, we all are controlled by the pomegranates and the bells…The signs [of the proper church life] are the pomegranates and bells. The pomegranates and the bells were placed alternately, a bell and a pomegranate (Exo. 28:34). This indicates that the divine voice is interrelated with the divine life…If in the church life we have bells without pomegranates, there will be gossip and criticism, not the ringing of golden bells. But if pomegranates are placed alternately with bells, gossip and criticism will disappear, and instead there will be a proper, divine sound.
15我们……需要在生命里长大,最终在生命里开花,然后我们就成了石榴。……这种生命里的长大还会影响别人,使闲谈和批评被小小金铃的响声顶替。如果这是某位弟兄的经历,他就会来到聚会中,见证他在某件事上受了主的对付。因着他的说话,别人就会受到警告,因为他们会听见与石榴交互排列之金铃的声音。
15We need to grow in life and eventually blossom in life. Then we shall become pomegranates…This growth in life will influence others and cause gossip and criticism to be replaced by the proper sounding of little golden bells. If this is the experience of a certain brother, he may come to the meeting to testify of how he has been dealt with by the Lord in a particular matter. Through his speaking others may be warned, for they shall hear the sound of golden bells placed alternately with pomegranates.
16我们唯有借着经历才能领会,带着石榴和铃的长袍这预表的意义。首先我们看见,石榴和铃系于长袍的底边上,这指明它们与召会生活有关。……无论我们在召会里说什么,都必须是出于神圣的起源,出于神圣的源头。同时,我们也需要生命的丰满彰显在麻—人性里。所以,在召会里有生命的华美彰显在我们的人性里,也有神圣的声音从金铃而来;这些乃是正确召会生活的标记(出埃及记生命读经,一六五三至一六五六页)。
16By experience…we understand the significance of the typology of the long robe with pomegranates and bells. First we see that the pomegranates and bells are attached to the skirts of the long robe. This indicates that they are related to the church life…Whatever we speak in the church must be of divine origin, of the divine source. At the same time, we need the fullness of life expressed in linen, in humanity. Therefore, in the church we have the beauty of life expressed in our humanity and the divine sounding from the golden bells. These are signs of the proper church life. (Life-study of Exodus, pp. 1442-1444)

今日要点
18主题:借着经历基督作石榴,彰显生命的丰满,而有神的说话
18
19引经:出二八33~34
19
201.圣经中第一次出现石榴的启示:
20
21a. 圣经第一次出现石榴,乃是在出二八33~34,“袍子周围底边上,要用蓝色、紫色、朱红色线作石榴。在袍子周围的石榴中间,要有金铃,一个金铃一个石榴…”;我们要展开这节经文:
21
22b. 第一,大祭司的外袍表征召会,第二,用细麻作石榴表征召会在人性里该满了生命,第三,金铃表征神性的声音,第四,金铃和石榴交互排列,则说出召会在人性里满了生命,就有神性的说话,这些乃是正确召会生活的标记。
22
232.有石榴就有金铃,没有石榴就没有金铃:
23
24a.在召会生活中,总是缺少石榴和金铃,难怪召会生活有许多的问题与难处,若是信徒都在人性里,把作生命之基督的丰满彰显出来时,我们中间就会有许多的金铃,然后就有神的说话,神的声音就借着召会的神性彰显出来。
24
25b.因此,召会不是人治,召会不在人的控制之下,反之,我们都是被石榴与金铃所控制,正确召会生活该满有石榴和金铃这标记,也不能只有铃,而没有金铃,这样召会就满了闲聊和批评。
25
26应用:一面我们该追求生命长大,好叫我们脱离闲谈和批评,另一面,我们不仅当看重讲台弟兄的信息,也当看重弟兄姐妹的说话和祷告,因为里面可能有石榴,并有金铃,成为我们的警告。
