纲目
1肆 以弗所五章二十六至二十七节与雅歌八章十三至十四节相符;二者都启示,我们是借着主向我们的说话,得以预备好,成为祂荣耀的新妇,渴望祂第二次的来——“你这住在园中的,我的同伴都要听你的声音,求你使我也得听见。我的良人哪,愿你快来,如羚羊或小牡鹿在香草山上”:
1
2一 在雅歌里,爱基督的寻求者求祂这位住在作祂园子之信徒里面的,使她同伴听见祂声音时,她也得听见——八13,参四13~16,五1,六2:
2
31 这指明我们这些爱基督的人,为我们的良人基督工作时,需要维持我们与祂的交通,一直听祂——路十38~42
3
42 我们的生命,乃是在乎主的话语;我们的工作,乃是在乎主的命令;(启二7撒上三9~10,参赛五十4~5出二一6;)没有主的话语,对于基督是我们的王,(赛六15,)我们的主,(林后五14~15,)我们的头(西二19)和我们的丈夫,(林后十一2,)就没有任何启示、亮光、或亲身的认识;信徒的一生,都系于主的说话。(弗五26~27。)
4
5二 作为雅歌这卷诗意之书结束的祷告,基督的佳偶求她的良人在复活的大能(羚羊和小牡鹿)里快快回来,设立那要充满全地,祂甘甜美丽的国(香草山)——八14,启十一15但二35
5
61 这样的祷告描绘基督这位新郎和祂的佳偶新妇之间,在新婚之爱里的联结与交通;这正如约翰这位爱基督者的祷告(作为圣经的结语)一样,乃是启示神关于祂神圣之爱里基督与召会的永远经纶——启二二20
6
72 “主耶稣啊,我愿你来!”乃是圣经中最后的祷告;(启二二20;)整本圣经结束于我们对主再来的渴望发表成为祷告。

8歌八13~14 你这住在园中的,我的同伴都要听你的声音,求你使我也得听见。我的良人哪,愿你快来,如羚羊或小牡鹿在香草山上。

9良人的佳偶求祂这位住在作祂园子之信徒里面的,使她同伴听见祂声音时,她也得听见〔歌八13〕。这指明我们这些爱基督,在外面彰显祂作我们生活的人,为那住在我们里面,在内里作我们生命的良人工作时,该在祂的说话中与祂交通。我们与祂同工时,需要维持我们与祂的交通,一直听祂。
9The lover of her Beloved asks Him who dwells in the believers as His gardens to let her hear His voice as her companions listen for His voice [S. S. 8:13]. This indicates that in the work, which we as the lovers of Christ who express Him as our living outwardly do for Him as our Beloved who indwells us as our life inwardly, we should fellowship with Him in His speaking. As we are working with Him, we need to maintain our fellowship with Him, always listening to Him.
10良人的佳偶祷告,求祂在复活的大能里快快回来〔14〕,设立那要充满全地,祂甘甜美丽的国(启十一15但二35)。这里我们该留意,这佳偶的祷告是〔雅歌〕这卷诗意之书的结语,描绘基督这位新郎和祂的佳偶新妇之间,在新婚之爱里的联结与交通;这正如约翰这位爱基督者的祷告一样,乃是启示神关于祂神圣之爱里基督与召会的永远经纶(启二二20)(雅歌生命读经,八五页)。
10The lover of her Beloved prays that He would make haste [v. 14] to come back in the power of His resurrection to set up His sweet and beautiful kingdom which will fill the whole earth (Rev. 11:15; Dan. 2:35). Here we should note that the prayer of this lover of her Beloved is the concluding word of this poetic book, portraying the union and communion between Christ as the Bridegroom and His lovers as the bride in their bridal love, as the prayer of John, a lover of Christ, is the concluding word of the Holy Scripture, revealing God’s eternal economy concerning Christ and the church in His divine love (Rev. 22:20).

Today’s Reading
11〔在雅歌八章〕十三节,……“你”是指着主说的;“园”是多数的。祂不只住在女子的园中(六2),并且也住在许多的园里。祂乃是住在人心里的主—不只是住在这一个完全跟随祂者的心里,祂也住在一切祂心所喜悦者的心里。现在女子就是借着这一个来称呼祂,对祂说,“我的同伴都要听你的声音。”〔八13〕这“听”字的意思,就是都在那里听着。和她一同寻求主的人,现在都取了这个态度。她们已经经过了对付,知道“说”是何等的无益,“听”是何等的有用。她们已经知道要快快地听,就要慢慢地说。……现在她们也不像一般的人那样必须讲话,为着爱讲话而讲话。凡对琐细的事情,一直谈论不休的,都是因为属地的生命在那里掌权。现在她们都听着,都取听的态度。因为她们知道她们的生命,乃是在乎主的教训,她们的工作,乃是在乎主的命令。所以,她们听,自己是不可动的了,自己是不能动的了。没有主的声音,就没有启示;没有亮光,就没有知识。信徒的一生,都系于主的声音上。
11In Song of Songs 8:13…”You” refers to the Lord. “The gardens” are plural in number. He is not only dwelling in the garden of the maiden (6:2) but dwelling in many other gardens as well. He is the Lord who dwells in the hearts of men. He is not only dwelling in the heart of one who follows Him absolutely, but He is dwelling in the hearts of all those whom He delights in. The maiden addresses Him according to this relationship. She says to Him, “My companions listen for your voice” [8:13]. The word “listen” means that everyone is listening. All those who are seeking the Lord together with her adopt the same attitude. They have been dealt with, and they know the futility of speaking and the profit of listening. They know that they have to be slow to speak in order to be quick to hear…They no longer insist on speaking like others do, and they no longer speak for the sake of speaking. Those who cannot stop talking about trivial things still have the earthly life reigning within them. But these are listening; they adopt the attitude of a hearer. They know that their lives depend on the Lord’s words and their work depends on the Lord’s commands. They will only listen, because they cannot and will not move by themselves any longer. Without the Lord’s words, they will not have any revelation, light, or knowledge. The life of the believers hinges totally upon the Lord’s speaking.
12“主啊,正在我们等候听着的时候,求主使我能够听见。如果祈求就得着,寻找就寻见,叩门就开门,就求你叫我听,也能听见。耶和华如果不对我们说话,我们就像死了的人。……所以,求你让我听见你的声音,因为唯独这一个会引导我,一直到你再来。”〔佳偶〕现在已经学会了功课。所以,她在这顶末了的时候,就有了这一个顶深的祷告。
12“O Lord, while we are waiting to listen, make us hear. If those who seek find, and if those who knock have the door opened to them, make us hear, and make us able to hear. If Jehovah will not speak to us, we will be like those who are dead…Please allow us to hear Your voice, because only this can guide us until Your return.” She has learned her lessons by now; therefore, she offers up such a profound prayer toward the end.
13八章十四节……乃是主的再临和祂国度的情形。在那一个时候,又要有锦绣的世界,好像香草山一样。……到了这里,我们看见女子的经历,好像一滴的水,已经流到海里,已经无可再进步,虽然还可越流越深。现在她所有的一切,留在世界里的,只有一个身体,其余的已经都到另外一个世界里去了。所以她就不能不发出呼求的声音说,“我的良人哪!愿你快来!”“愿你来的时候,如同羚羊或小牡鹿那样的快来。羚羊或小牡鹿如何在香草山上,当你来的时候,你也要如何降临在你的国度中。”今天的爱虽然是完全的,但未免还有缺欠。当祂来的时候,真的,“信则变见,赞代祈”,爱就要达到毫无阴翳、完全的地位,能够丝毫无罪地在主面前事奉祂。这是什么日子呢?所以主耶稣啊,求你快来!(倪柝声文集第二辑第三册,一四七至一五○页)。
13Verse 14…describes the condition of the Lord’s coming and His kingdom. At that time, it will be a marvelous world, one like the mountains of spices. Then the maiden’s experience will be like a drop of water that has disappeared into the ocean; there will be no more room for advancement, though the tide can always go deeper. All that is left in the world is just her body. Everything else has gone to another world. Therefore, she cannot help but cry, “Make haste, my beloved.” “Come as quickly as the gazelle or a young hart. Just as a gazelle or a young hart appears on the mountains of spices, may You come in Your kingdom.” Although the love is perfect, something is still lacking. When He comes, faith will be turned to facts, and praise will replace prayer. Love will consummate in a shadowless perfection, and we will serve Him in the sinless domain. What a day that will be! Lord Jesus, come quickly! (CWWN, vol. 23, “The Song of Songs,” pp. 124-126)

今日要点
15主题:借着主的话,有分新妇的预备,好带进主的再来
15
16引经:歌八13~14
16
171.美丽新妇的预备,在于主的话:
17
18A.弗五26~27说到话中之水的洗涤,以及将新妇献上,这与歌八13~14相符,在歌八13~14说,『你这住在园中的,我的同伴都要听你的声音,求你使我也得听见。我的良人哪,愿你快来,如羚羊或小牡鹿在香草山上』,在雅歌里,爱基督的寻求者求祂这位住在作祂园子之信徒里面的,使她同伴听见祂声音时,她也要得听见。
18
19B.这与弗五的话中之水对照,二段经文都启示,我们是借着主向我们的说话,得以预备好,成为祂荣耀的新妇,这指明我们这些爱基督的人,为我们的良人工作时,需要维持我们与祂的交通,一直听祂,因为我们的生命,乃是在乎主的话语,我们的工作,乃是在乎主的命令,可以说,信徒的一生,都系于主的说话。
19
202.新妇预备好了,要带进主的回来:
20
21A.在歌八13~14,有作为雅歌这卷诗意之书结束的祷告,基督的佳偶求她的良人在羚羊和小牡鹿所表征的复活大能里快快回来,设立那要充满全地,祂甘甜美丽的国,也就是香草山,这样的记载与弗五将新妇献上相对应,因为这都联于主第二次的来,这样的祷告,描绘基督这位新郎和祂的佳偶之间,在新婚之爱里的联结与交通,这正如约翰这位爱基督的祷告一样。
21
22B.这样的祷告,乃是启示神关于祂神圣之爱里基督与召会的永远经纶,佳偶留在世界里的,只剩下一个身体,其余的都到另一个世界里去了,所以她会发出这样的祷告,当主回来的时候,信则变见,赞美代替祈祷,爱就要达到毫无阴翳,完全的地位,这是什么日子呢?所以主耶稣啊,求你快来!
22
23应用:我们不仅有团体的,「园子」的召会生活,也需要有个别的,只有「你」的召会生活,能够划定时间安静下来,不是到主面前倒东倒西,拼命发表,而是坐着听祂,一切都在乎主的教训、主的命令,我们的一生都系于主的声音上。
