7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。
7Matt. 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.
8〔马太十一章二十八节的劳苦〕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。主颂扬父,承认父的道路,并宣告神圣的经纶之后,便呼召这样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(圣经恢复本,太十一28注1,注2)。
8[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. After the Lord extolled the Father, acknowledging the Father’s way and declaring the divine economy, He called this kind of people to come to Him for rest. (Matt. 11:28, footnote 1) Rest refers not only to being set free from the toil and burden under the law or religion or under any work or responsibility, but also to perfect peace and full satisfaction. (Matt. 11:28, footnote 2)
9负主的轭就是接受父的旨意。这不是受律法或宗教义务的规律或支配,也不是受任何工作的奴役,乃是受父旨意的约束。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(太十一29注3)。
9To take the Lord’s yoke is to take the will of the Father. It is not to be regulated or controlled by any obligation of the law or religion or to be enslaved by any work, but to be constrained by the will of the Father. The Lord 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). Hence, He asks us to learn from Him. (Matt. 11:29, footnote 2)

10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。……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(圣经恢复本,太十一29注1,注4)。
10To be meek, or gentle, means not to resist opposition, and to be lowly means not to have self-esteem. 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. (Matt. 11:29, footnote 3) The rest that we find by taking the Lord’s yoke and learning from Him is for our souls. It is an inward rest; it is not anything merely outward in nature. (Matt. 11:29, footnote 4)
11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(太十一30注1,注2)。
11The Lord’s yoke is the Father’s will, and His burden is the work of carrying out the Father’s will. Such a yoke is easy, not bitter, and such a burden is light, not heavy. (Matt. 11:30, footnote 1) The Greek word [translated “easy”] means “fit for use”; hence, good, kind, mild, gentle, easy, pleasant—in contrast to hard, harsh, sharp, bitter. (Matt. 11:30, footnote 2)
12在我们的经历中,有时候我们就是不知道要思考什么。……这指明我们的心思需要主耶稣作牧人。……祂牧养的结果,就使我们的心思受指引,摆在正路上。……我们的情感是复杂的,容易受搅扰。……所以,我们需要主耶稣在我们的情感里牧养我们。祂的牧养安慰我们的情感。……我们的意志也需要主的牧养。我们人常常发觉很难作正确的决定,有时候最难为的事就是作决定。不信的人没有人带领并引导他们作决定,但我们有牧人带领并引导我们。主的带领和引导主要与我们的意志有关。主是活的牧人,不断指引我们的意志。……主实在是我们魂的牧人。祂指引我们的心思,安慰我们的情感,带领并引导我们的意志。
12In our experience sometimes we just do not know…where to direct our thoughts. This is an indication that our mind needs the Lord Jesus as the Shepherd…As a result of His shepherding, our mind is directed and set in the right way. Our emotion, being complicated, is easily upset…Therefore, we need the Lord Jesus to shepherd us in our emotion. His shepherding comforts our emotion. Our will also needs the Lord’s shepherding. As human beings, we often find it difficult to make the right decision. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to make a decision. Unbelievers have no one to lead them and guide them in making decisions. But we have a Shepherd to lead us and guide us. The Lord’s leading and guiding are primarily related to our will. As the living Shepherd, the Lord continually directs our will…The Lord is truly the Shepherd of our soul. He directs our mind, comforts our emotion, and leads and guides our will.
13照着我的经历,带领与引导之间有所不同。带领与目的地有关。假定你从家里开车到一个城市,公路地图可以带领你到目的地。但一旦你到达那城市,你会需要一个向导,指引你到你要去的准确地点。……〔例如,〕一面,主带领祂的子民到圣地。但祂带领他们到了那里之后,就要引导他们到锡安山。
13According to my experience, there is a difference between leading and guiding. Leading is related to a destination. Suppose you are driving from your home to a certain city. A road map may lead you to your destination. But once you arrive at that city, you will need a guide, someone to direct you to the exact place where you want to go…For instance, on the one hand, the Lord will lead His people to the Holy Land. But once He has led them there, He will guide them to Mount Zion.
14主是我们的牧人,首先带领我们,然后引导我们。祂带领我们到正确的地方,并且引导我们到准确的地点。这就是基督,我们的牧人(彼得前书生命读经,二二九至二三○页)。
14As our Shepherd, the Lord leads us first and then guides us. He leads us to the right place, and He guides us to the exact spot. This is Christ, our Shepherd. (Life-study of 1 Peter, p. 192)

今日要点
16主题:经历祂作魂的牧人,使我们的魂得安息
16
171.经历祂作魂的牧人,使我们的魂得安息:
17
18A.我们经历基督作我们魂的牧人,牧养我们的魂,使我们的魂得着安息,太十一28说,『凡劳苦担重担的,可以到我这里来,我必使你们得安息』,这段话的背景,是主选差工人去传福音,扩展主的国度,这些工人面对一切的反对,就容易没有安息,为此28节的话,不仅是呼召那些为了遵守律法而努力的人,或为了工作成功而奋斗的人,更是呼召主的工人到祂这里来得安息。
18
19B.这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,
19
202.信徒的魂得着安息的路:
20
21A.太十一29接着说,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』,这里说主的心里柔和谦卑,柔和,意即不抵抗任何反对,谦卑,意即不看重自己,在一切的敌对中,主是柔和的,在一切的弃绝中,主心里是谦卑的,主过一种受父旨意约束,并在意父旨意的生活,祂以父的旨意为满足,所以主的心里有安息。
21
22B.此外,这里启示了得安息的路,在于负主的轭,跟主学,那么,什么是主的轭呢?主的轭就是父的旨意,因此主在30节才说,『因为我的轭是容易的,我的担子是轻省的』,所以负主的轭,就是接受主的旨意,我们要得安息,就需要接受主的旨意,这不是受律法或宗教义务的规律或支配,也不是受任何工作的奴役,乃是受父旨意的约束,使我们经历祂的牧养,带领并引导我们的魂。
22
23应用:我们当每一周分别两小时过传福音的生活,但遇到反对,甚至不信者的咒骂,觉得没有功劳,也该有苦劳,没有苦劳,只剩疲劳,这说出我们成了劳苦担重担者,我们没有来到主这里得安息,我们一面传福音,该一面连于主,使我们只管实行主的旨意,只要与主同行同工,就算没有人接受,我们仍有完全的平安和完满的满足。
