纲目
1叁 主耶稣是我们的安息——太十一28~30
1
2一 “凡劳苦担重担的,可以到我这里来,我必使你们得安息”——28节:
2
31 这里所提到的劳苦,不仅是指为了遵守律法诚命和宗教规条而努力的劳苦,也是指为了工作成功而奋斗的劳苦;凡这样劳苦的,总是担重担的。
3
42 安息不仅是指从律法与宗教,或工作与责任的劳苦并重担中得着释放,也是指完全的平安和完满的满足。
4
5二 “我心里柔和谦卑,因此你们要负我的轭,且要跟我学,你们魂里就必得安息;因为我的轭是容易的,我的担子是轻省的”——29~30节:
5
61 负主的轭就是接受父的旨意;这不是受任何工作的规律或支配,乃是受父旨意的约束。
6
72 主过这样的生活,并不在意别的,只在意祂父的旨意(约四34五30六38);祂将自己完全降服于父的旨意(太二六3942);因此,祂要我们跟祂学。
7
83 跟祂学,不是外面模仿祂,乃是在我们的灵里借着负祂的轭—神的旨意—来翻印祂;神的旨意必须成为我们的轭,我们也必须将自己的颈项放在这轭内,好成为祂的复制——彼前二21
8
94 负主的轭、跟主学,就叫我们的魂得安息;这是里面的安息,不是任何仅仅在本质上是外面的事物。
9
105 主的轭是父的旨意,祂的担子是将父旨意实行出来的工作;这样的轭是容易(美好、亲切、柔和、温良、愉快,与艰难、严酷、尖锐、痛苦相对)的;这样的担子是轻省的,不是沉重的。

11太十一28~30 凡劳苦担重担的,可以到我这里来,我必使你们得安息。我心里柔和谦卑,因此你们要负我的轭,且要跟我学,你们魂里就必得安息;因为我的轭是容易的,我的担子是轻省的。
11Matt. 11:28-30 Come to Me all who toil and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.
12基督是安息。我们若取用基督作我们的智慧,我们也许变得非常忙碌。为这缘故,取用基督作我们的智慧,需要借着取用祂作我们的安息来平衡。……主耶稣发出呼召,要人到祂这里来,从劳苦重担中得安息。马太十一章二十八节所提的劳苦,不仅是指为了遵守律法诫命和宗教规条而努力的劳苦,也是指为了工作成功而奋斗的劳苦。凡这样劳苦的,总是担重担的。因此,主呼召劳苦的人到祂这里来得安息。安息不仅是指从律法与宗教,或工作与责任的劳苦并重担中得着释放,也是指完全的平安和完满的满足(新约总论第九册,四八至四九页)。
12Christ is rest. If we take Christ as our wisdom, we may become very busy. For this reason, taking Christ as our wisdom needs to be balanced by taking Him as our rest. The Lord Jesus sounded out a call to come to Him for rest from being burdened to toil. The toil mentioned in Matthew 11:28 refers not only to the toil of striving to keep the commandments of the law and religious regulations but also to the toil of struggling to be successful in any work. Whoever toils thus is always heavily burdened. Thus, the Lord calls the toiling ones to come to Him for rest. Rest refers not only to being set free from the toil and burden under the law and religion or under any work and responsibility but also to perfect peace and full satisfaction. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 2792)

13在马太十一章二十九节主耶稣给我们得安息的路。……主的轭,祂的生活方式,乃是安息,但我们的轭却是重担。因此,我们不该负我们的轭;反之,我们该负主的轭,就是祂的生活方式。
13In Matthew 11:29 the Lord Jesus gives us the way to rest…The Lord’s yoke, His way of living, is a rest, but our yoke is a burden. Therefore, we should not take our yoke. Rather, we should take the Lord’s yoke, His way of living.
14负主的轭就是接受父的旨意。……主耶稣过这样的生活,并不在意别的,只在意父的旨意(约四34五30六38)。祂将自己完全降服于父的旨意(太二六3942)。因此,祂要我们跟祂学。跟祂学不是外面模仿祂,乃是在我们的灵里借着负祂的轭—神的旨意—来翻印祂(十一29上彼前二21)。
14The Lord’s yoke is to take the will of the Father…The Lord Jesus lived such a life, caring for nothing but the will of His Father (John 4:34; 5:30; 6:38). He submitted Himself fully to the Father’s will (Matt. 26:39, 42). Therefore, He asks us to learn from Him. To learn from Him is not to imitate Him outwardly but to copy the Lord in our spirit by taking His yoke—God’s will (11:29a; 1 Pet. 2:21).
15负主的轭、跟主学,就叫我们的魂得安息;这是里面的安息,不是任何仅仅在本质上是外面的事物。最困难的事,就是我们魂里得安息。人会失眠,是因为他们的魂受搅扰。然而,借着负主的轭、跟祂学,我们魂里就有分于祂那满足中的安息(太十一28下29下30)(新约总论第九册,四九页)。
15The rest we find by taking the Lord’s yoke and learning from Him is for our souls. It is an inward rest, not anything merely outward in nature. The hardest thing is to rest in our souls. People lose sleep because their soul is bothered. Yet by taking the Lord’s yoke and learning from Him, we share in our soul His rest in satisfaction (Matt. 11:28b, 29b, 30). (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 2793)
16神的旨意就是我们的轭。因此,我们不能为所欲为;我们乃是负轭的。青年人,不要以为你们是这么自由逍遥。在主的恢复里,我们都负了轭。负轭是何等美好!……主的轭是父的旨意,祂的担子是将父旨意实行出来的工作。这样的轭是容易的,不是痛苦的;这样的担子是轻省的,不是沉重的。容易,原文表明合用;因此是美好、亲切、柔和、温良、容易、愉快,与艰难、严酷、尖锐、痛苦相对。
16God’s will is our yoke. Thus, we are not free to do as we please; rather, we are yoked. Young people, do not think you are so free or liberated. In the Lord’s recovery we all have been yoked. How good it is to be yoked!…The Lord’s yoke is the Father’s will, and His burden is the work to carry out the Father’s will. Such a yoke is easy, not bitter, and such a burden is light, not heavy. The Greek word rendered “easy” means “fit for use”; hence, good, kind, mild, gentle, easy, pleasant, in contrast to hard, harsh, sharp, and bitter.
17在马太十一章二十九节,主告诉我们要跟祂学。祂心里柔和谦卑。柔和,或,温柔;意即不抵抗任何反对。谦卑,意即不重看自己。在一切的敌对中,主是柔和的;在一切的弃绝里,祂心里是谦卑的。祂将自己完全降服于父的旨意,不为自己作什么,也不盼望为自己得什么。因此,无论环境如何,祂心里都有安息;祂完全以父的旨意为满足。
17In Matthew 11:29 the Lord told us to learn from Him. He is meek and lowly in heart. To be meek, or gentle, means not to resist any opposition, and to be lowly means not to esteem oneself highly. Throughout all the opposition the Lord was meek, and throughout all the rejection He was lowly in heart. He submitted Himself fully to the will of His Father, not wanting to do anything for Himself or expecting to gain something for Himself. Hence, regardless of the situation He had rest in His heart; He was fully satisfied with His Father’s will.
18主说,我们若负祂的轭,且跟祂学,我们魂里就必得安息。……我们尽职事遭受反对时,我们若抵抗,就没有平安。但我们若不抵抗,而降服于父的旨意,见证反对是出于父,我们魂里就会得着安息。施浸者约翰不认为他的下监是出于父,所以他没有安息。他若领悟他的下监是由于父的旨意,即使在监里,他也必得着安息。基督这位属天的君王,总是降服于父的旨意,接受神的旨意作祂的分,不抵抗任何事,所以祂一直有安息。我们必须跟祂学,也必须接受这样的观点。若是这样,我们魂里就会得着安息(马太福音生命读经,四四○至四四一页)。
18The Lord said that if we take His yoke upon us and learn from Him, we will find rest for our souls. If we are opposed as we minister, and we resist, we will not have peace. But if instead of resisting we submit to the will of the Father, testifying that the opposition is of the Father, we will have rest in our souls. John the Baptist did not regard his imprisonment as of the Father; therefore, he was not at rest. If he had realized that his imprisonment was due to the Father’s will, he would have been at rest, even in prison. Christ, the heavenly King, always submitted to the Father’s will, taking God’s will as His portion and not resisting anything. Hence, He was always at rest. We must learn of Him and also take this view. If we do, we will have rest in our souls. (Life-study of Matthew, 2nd ed., pp. 372-373)

今日要点
20主题:经历并享受主耶稣是我们的安息
20
21引经:太十一28~30
21
221.认识劳苦与安息的内在意义:
22
23a.当我们接受基督的牧养,甚至使我们有分主牧养的工作、扩展神的国时,太十一章启示主耶稣是我们的安息,29~30说,『凡劳苦担重担的,可以到我这里来,我必使你们得安息』,所以这里的劳苦,不仅是指遵守律法诫命和宗教规条而努力的劳苦,也指为着主的工作成功而奋斗的劳苦。
23
24b.这里的安息,也不仅是指从律法与宗教,或工作或责任的劳苦重担中得着释放,也是指完全的平安和完满的满足;我们若取用基督作智慧,我们也许变得非常忙碌,为这缘故,就需要取用基督作安息来取得平衡。
24
252.得安息的路:
25
26a.此外这段经文也启示得安息的路,30节说,『我心里柔和谦卑,因此你们要负我的轭,且要跟我学,你们魂里就必得安息;因为我的轭是容易的,我的担子是轻省的』,主的轭,就是主的生活方式,乃是安息,但我们的轭,却是重担,因此我们不该负自己的轭,反之,我们该负主的轭,就是祂的生活方式。
26
27b.负主的轭就是接受父的旨意,这不是受任何工作的规律或支配,乃是受父旨意的约束,主过这样的生活,不在意别的,只在意父的旨意,因此,我们要负主的轭,跟祂学,就不能外面模仿祂,而是要在灵里翻印祂,使神的旨意成为我们的轭,这样,主的轭就会是容易的,主的担子也会是轻省的,这样,我们得安息,神的旨意也要得著成就,神的国也要在地上得着建立。
27
28应用:面对与主同工,我们不该为所欲为,自由逍遥,想服事什么就服事,长老请我们配搭某一项我们不爱的,甚至要我们到一个地方配搭,我们就有自己的想法和选择,我们需要负主的轭,就是实行父的旨意,完全以父神的旨意为满足,这样我们一面有分主的工作,另一面满享安息。
