6利二三39 你们收藏了地的出产，从七月十五日起，要守耶和华的节七日；第一日要有完全的安息，第八日也要有完全的安息。
6Lev. 23:39 Then on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the produce of the land, you shall keep the feast of Jehovah seven days; on the first day shall be a complete rest, and on the eighth day shall be a complete rest.
743 好叫你们世世代代知道，我领以色列人出埃及地的时候曾使他们住在棚里……。
743 So that your descendants may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Egypt…
8利未记二十三章说，神为祂的选民每年设立了七个节期。第一个节期是逾越节（5），最后一个节期是住棚节（34）。逾越节是我们对基督之享受的起头，住棚节是我们对基督之享受的完成。逾越节是神为祂子民所设立之一切节期中的第一个节期，预表基督是我们对祂之享受的开端，使我们开始过属灵的生活。整个基督徒的生活，应当是一个节期。……基督徒的生活是受苦的生活，但我们受苦是为使我们能更多地过节。我们的受苦帮助我们享受主。至终，我们的受苦成了我们的筵席。这就是为什么诗篇二十三篇五节说，主在我们仇敌面前，为我们摆设了筵席。“仇敌”指明争战和受苦，但主使我们的争战和受苦成为筵席（李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第四册，四九一至四九二页）。
8Leviticus 23 says that God ordained seven annual feasts for His elect. The first one was the Passover (v. 5), and the last one was the Feast of Tabernacles (v. 34). The Passover is the initiation, and the Feast of Tabernacles is the consummation of our enjoyment of Christ. The Passover, the first feast of all the feasts ordained by God for His people, typifies that Christ is the beginning of our enjoyment of Him that originates our spiritual life. The entire Christian life should be a feast…The Christian life is a suffering life, but we suffer so that we can feast more. Our suffering helps us to enjoy the Lord. Eventually, our suffering becomes our feasting. This is why Psalm 23:5 says that the Lord has prepared a table before us in the presence of our enemies. Enemies indicates fighting and suffering, but the Lord makes our fighting a feasting and our suffering a table. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 4, “Crystallization-study of the Gospel of John,” p. 388)

9在〔逾越节〕里，主要的享受乃是逾越节的羊羔，带着其为着救赎的血和为着争战与行动的肉，以及表征无罪之生活的无酵饼（出十二5~8）。……血在法理一面救赎〔以色列人〕，羊羔的肉是给神选民吃的，在生机一面使他们得着滋养和加强，能以走出埃及。今天基督是羔羊，祂的血是为着救赎，祂的自己是为着加强并滋养我们，使我们能走在神的道路上，从埃及出来。我们同时也吃作为无酵饼的基督，表征我们过着无罪的生活。
9In this Feast [of the Passover] the main enjoyments were the passover lamb with its blood for redeeming and its flesh for fighting and walking, and the unleavened bread, signifying a sinless living (Exo. 12:5-8)…The blood redeemed the children of Israel judicially, and the flesh of the lamb was for God’s elect to eat so that they could be nourished and strengthened to walk out of Egypt organically. Christ today is the Lamb with His blood for redemption and with Himself for strengthening and nourishing us so that we can walk on God’s way out of Egypt. At the same time, we also eat Christ as the unleavened bread, signifying that we are living a sinless life.
10在享受基督时，我们必须吃祂的肉，喝祂的血，好得着祂永远的生命（约六54），也必须吃祂这天上的粮，好借着祂那对我们是灵也是生命的话（63），而永远活着（58）。在约翰三章，我们看见基督作新郎，乃是在万有之上（29~31），祂讲说神的话，使神扩展。在使神扩展之后，祂就赐那灵没有限量（34）。然后祂赐给人永远的生命（36）。
10In the enjoyment of Christ we must eat His flesh and drink His blood so that we may have His eternal life (John 6:54) and eat Him as the heavenly bread so that we may live forever (v. 58) through His word, which is spirit and life to us (v. 63). In John 3 we see that Christ as the Bridegroom, who is above all things (vv. 29-31), speaks the words of God to spread God. Following the spreading of God, He gives the Spirit without measure (v. 34). Then He gives the eternal life (v. 36).
11约翰在他的福音书中，首先向我们提到逾越节，作为我们对基督之享受的开端，引进神在法理一面的救赎。……然后他又向我们提到住棚节，表征神在生机一面完全救恩的完成。犹太人从美地得了丰满的收成之后，就守住棚节，敬拜神并享受他们的收成（申十六13~15）。事实上，他们来在一起，乃是一幅相调的真实图画。为着这样的相调，所有以色列人都必须一年三次上耶路撒冷去。最后一次是在秋天收割之后，以享受他们从美地收割的出产，向神献上他们的赞美和敬拜，说美言称颂神。
11John in his Gospel refers to first the Feast of the Passover as the beginning of our enjoyment of Christ for the initiation of God’s redemption judicially. Then he also refers to the Feast of Tabernacles, signifying the consummation of God’s full salvation organically. After the full harvest of their crops from the good land, the Jewish people observed the Feast of Tabernacles to worship God and enjoy what they had reaped (Deut. 16:13-15). Actually, their coming together was a real picture of blending. All the people of Israel were required to go to Jerusalem three times a year for this blending. The last time was in the fall after the harvest to enjoy their produce from the harvest of the good land in their praise to God with adoration, to bless God and speak well of God.
12神设立住棚节，是要以色列人记念他们的先祖在旷野飘流时，如何住在帐棚里（利二三39~43），期望进入美地的安息。每一个人都有一个帐棚，在这些帐棚中间，神有一个会幕，所以住棚节乃是记念神的故事。这指向主在设立祂的桌子时所说的话。祂告诉我们，要吃饼喝杯，为的是记念祂（路二二19~20）。主的桌子是一个记念，正如住棚节是一个记念一样（李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第四册，四九二至四九四页）。
12God ordained the Feast of Tabernacles so that the children of Israel would remember how their fathers, while wandering in the wilderness, had lived in tents (Lev. 23:39-43), expecting to enter into the rest of the good land. Everyone had a tent, and God had a tabernacle among these tents, so the Feast of Tabernacles was a remembrance of God’s story. This points to what the Lord said when He established His table. He told us to eat the bread and drink the wine in remembrance of Him (Luke 22:19-20). The Lord’s table is a remembrance just as the Feast of Tabernacles was a remembrance. (CWWL, 1994-1997, vol. 4, “Crystallization-study of the Gospel of John,” pp. 388-389)

今日要点
14主题：借着来在一起相调，享受基督作住棚节
14
15引经：利二三39，利二三42，补充约七2
15
161.约翰六、七章中的逾越节与住棚节：
16
17a.前一篇说到约翰六章，在第一个节期，逾越节，是说到人生的开始，追求满足却落到虚空情形，约六章的背景，乃是基督满足我们的饥饿，这是人第一个节期，人生的开始，寻求成功与满足，却落到饥饿的情形，需要经历、享受基督作生命的粮。而在约七2说，「当时犹太人的住棚节近了」。
17
18b.本周说到约翰七章，在第七个节期，住棚节，则是说到人生的末了，在完全成功之后，却是干渴的，需要借着经历、享受基督作住棚节，并作为那灵如同活水的江河从信徒流出来，而带到永远的安息与满足；逾越节表征基督作为神在法理一面救赎的开端，而住棚节表征基督作为神在生机一面完全救恩的完成。
18
192.神设立住棚节的目的：
19
20A.在利二三39说到当百姓收藏了地的出产之后，『要守耶和华的节七日...要有完全的安息』，而43节接着说，『好叫你们世世代代知道，我领以色列人出埃及地的时候曾使他们住在棚里』，这启示神设立住棚节的目的，乃是要以色列人记念他们的先祖在旷野飘流时，曾如何住在帐棚里。
20
21B.这段经文也启示，住棚节的设立，为使百姓都要来到耶路撒冷，在一起过节七日，在这节日里敬拜神并且享受他们美地的出产，向神献上他们的赞美和敬拜，事实上，这是一幅图画，豫表今天新约的信徒，需要经历基督作住棚节，使我们在一起相调，使神与人得着完全的安息与满足。
21
22应用：基督徒的生活不能避免受苦，但基督徒受苦与世人不同，我们受苦是为着使我们能更多的过节，受苦帮助我们享受主，最终，受苦成了我们的筵席，使我们能享受筵席，经历住棚节的基督，能够口出美言，向神赞美与敬拜。
