Dec 10【每日活水】效法 SHEN 的性情

 

出埃及记34:1~9

复造法版
申10‧1-5
耶/和/华吩咐摩西说:「你要凿出两块石版,和先前你摔碎的那版一样;其上的字我要写在这版上。 
明日早晨,你要预备好了,上西奈山,在山顶上站在我面前。 
谁也不可和你一同上去,遍山都不可有人,在山根也不可叫羊群牛群吃草。」 
摩西就凿出两块石版,和先前的一样。清晨起来,照耶/和/华所吩咐的上西奈山去,手里拿着两块石版。 
耶/和/华在云中降临,和摩西一同站在那里,宣告耶/和/华的名。 
耶/和/华在他面前宣告:「耶/和/华,耶/和/华,是有怜悯有恩典的  SHEN ,不轻易发怒,并有丰盛的慈爱和诚实, 
为千万人存留慈爱,赦免罪孽、过犯,和罪恶,万不以有罪的为无罪,必追讨他的罪,自父及子,直到三、四代。」 
摩西急忙伏地下拜, 
说:「主啊,我若在你眼前蒙恩,求你在我们中间同行,因为这是硬着颈项的百姓。又求你赦免我们的罪孽和罪恶,以我们为你的产业。」
The New Stone Tablets
The Lord said to Moses, “Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on them the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke. 
Be ready in the morning, and then come up on Mount Sinai. Present yourself to me there on top of the mountain. 
No one is to come with you or be seen anywhere on the mountain; not even the flocks and herds may graze in front of the mountain.”
So Moses chiseled out two stone tablets like the first ones and went up Mount Sinai early in the morning, as the Lord had commanded him; and he carried the two stone tablets in his hands. 
Then the Lord came down in the cloud and stood there with him and proclaimed his name, the Lord
And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, 
maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.”
Moses bowed to the ground at once and worshiped. 
“Lord,” he said, “if I have found favor in your eyes, then let the Lord go with us. Although this is a stiff-necked people, forgive our wickedness and our sin, and take us as your inheritance.”
 

内容观察

1. SHEN 告诉摩西,他是怎样的一位 SHEN ?(6~7节)

2. 看见 SHEN 显现并宣告自己的属性,摩西作何反应?(8~9节)

 

思考与默想

 

3. SHEN 为什么向摩西详细描述他的属性?
 

个人感受

4. 看到 SHEN 如此宣告自己的属性,我有什么感想?
 

决心与应用

5. 我何时曾经历 SHEN 的慈爱、信实和赦免?

6. 为了效法 SHEN 的性情,以慈爱和信实来善待邻舍,我决定要怎么做?

为干代的人存留慈爱……直到三、四代(7节):和 SHEN 无限的慈爱相比, SHEN 的震怒极为微小,并不是指一个人的罪责要追究至后三代,而是罪的后果所会产生的影响力。

灵/修指南

摩西照着 SHEN 的吩咐预备好了两块石版,上了西奈山。 SHEN 在云中降临,他从摩西前面经过,显出自己的荣耀(1~5节),后来 SHEN 也显明了自己的属性,他称自己是“有怜悯,有恩惠的 SHEN ,不轻易发怒,且有丰盛的慈爱和信实”,又说他要施慈爱直到永远,赦免人的罪孽、过犯和罪恶(6~7节)。摩西听见这些,急忙俯伏在地敬/拜 SHEN ,并求 SHEN 赦免以色列人的罪,接纳他们为他的产业(8~9节)。摩西恳求满有怜悯和恩惠的 SHEN 宽恕硬着颈项的百姓,并与他们同行。如今作为 SHEN 百姓的我们,也要向这位满有怜悯和恩惠的 SHEN 所赐的救/恩献上感恩,并且效法 SHEN 的性情,在这地上彰显 SHEN 的慈爱和信实,怜悯和恩惠。
 

内室dao告

愿我学像 SHEN 的性情,在这地上彰显出他的蔽爱和信实、怜悯和恩惠。
