申命记1：9-18
摩西指派审判官
（出18‧13－27）
9「那时，我对你们说：『管理你们的重任，我独自担当不起。
（出18‧13－27）
9「那时，我对你们说：『管理你们的重任，我独自担当不起。
10耶和华－你们的 神使你们多起来。看哪，你们今日像天上的星那样多。
11惟愿耶和华－你们列祖的 神使你们比如今更多千倍，照他所应许你们的话赐福与你们。
12但你们的麻烦，和管理你们的重任，并你们的争讼，我独自一人怎能担当得起呢？
13你们要按着各支派选举有智慧、有见识、为众人所认识的，我立他们为你们的首领。』
14你们回答我说：『照你所说的行了为妙。』
15我便将你们各支派的*首领，有智慧、为众人所认识的，照你们的支派，立他们为官长、千夫长、百夫长、五十夫长、十夫长，管理你们。
16「当时，我嘱咐你们的审判官说：『你们听讼，无论是弟兄彼此争讼，是与*同居的外人争讼，都要按公义判断。
16「当时，我嘱咐你们的审判官说：『你们听讼，无论是弟兄彼此争讼，是与*同居的外人争讼，都要按公义判断。
17审判的时候，不可看人的外貌；听讼不可分贵贱，不可惧怕人，因为*审判是属乎 神的。若有难断的案件，可以呈到我这里，我就判断。』
18那时，我将你们所当行的事都吩咐你们了。」
The Appointment of Leaders
9 At that time I said to you, “You are too heavy a burden for me to carry alone.
9 At that time I said to you, “You are too heavy a burden for me to carry alone.
10 The Lord your God has increased your numbers so that today you are as numerous as the stars in the sky.
11 May the Lord, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised!
12 But how can I bear your problems and your burdens and your disputes all by myself?
13 Choose some wise, understanding and respected men from each of your tribes, and I will set them over you.”
14 You answered me, “What you propose to do is good.”
15 So I took the leading men of your tribes, wise and respected men, and appointed them to have authority over you—as commanders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and of tens and as tribal officials.
14 You answered me, “What you propose to do is good.”
15 So I took the leading men of your tribes, wise and respected men, and appointed them to have authority over you—as commanders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and of tens and as tribal officials.
16 And I charged your judges at that time, “Hear the disputes between your people and judge fairly, whether the case is between two Israelites or between an Israelite and a foreigner residing among you.
17 Do not show partiality in judging; hear both small and great alike. Do not be afraid of anyone, for judgment belongs to God. Bring me any case too hard for you, and I will hear it.”
18 And at that time I told you everything you were to do.

5. 最近你在所属群体中承担什么事奉？
6. 为了让自己所属的群体更加健康，你今天可以做什么？
首领（15节）： 指千夫长、百夫长、五十夫长、十夫长等管理者，摩西希望借此制度建立公正、健康的军事群体。
同居的外人（16节）： 非指一般旅客，而是已融入以色列群体的外邦人。
审判是神的事（17节）： 审判的权柄来自于神，所以需按神所赐的律法来进行审判。
创15:5： “于是领他走到外边，说：「你向天观看，数算众星，能数得过来吗？」又对他说：「你的后裔将要如此。」’”
弗4:11~12： “他所赐的，有使徒，有先知，有传福音的，有牧师和教师， 为要成全圣徒，各尽其职，建立基督的身体”
