A Perfect Sacrifice, January 11
高举主耶稣-第12章
“你要为我筑土坛,在上面以牛羊献为燔祭和平安祭。凡记下我名的地方,我必到那里赐福给你”(出20:24)。{LHU25.1}
高举主耶稣-第12章
An altar of earth you shall make for me and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen; in every place where I cause my name to be remembered I will come to you and bless you.Exodus 20:24, RSV.{LHU 25.1}[1]
高举主耶稣-第12章
亚当在遵守上帝的特别指示为罪献祭时,那对于他乃是极其痛苦的礼节。他必须亲手取那唯有上帝才能赐予的生命,而借以为罪献祭。这是他第一次看到死亡。当他看到那血淋淋的祭牲在垂死的痛苦中挣扎,他便要凭信心仰望那祭牲所预表的、要为人类牺牲受死的上帝的儿子。{LHU25.2}
高举主耶稣-第12章
When Adam, according to God’s special directions, made an offering for sin, it was to him a most painful ceremony. His hand must be raised to take life, which God alone could give, and make an offering for sin. It was the first time he had witnessed death. As he looked upon the bleeding victim, writhing in the agonies of death, he was to look forward by faith to the Son of God, whom the victim prefigured, who was to die man’s sacrifice.{LHU 25.2}[2]
高举主耶稣-第12章
上帝所命定的这种祭礼,要不住地使亚当想起他的罪来,也要作为他痛悔认罪的表现。这个杀害祭牲的举动,给予亚当对自己的犯罪以更深刻更完全的认识;那是除了上帝爱子的死,别无他法足能补赎的。他因上帝竟愿付出如此重大赎价来拯救罪人所表现的无限良善和无比慈爱而感惊奇。{LHU25.3}
高举主耶稣-第12章
This ceremonial offering, ordained of God, was to be a perpetual reminder to Adam of his guilt, and also a penitential acknowledgment of his sin. This act of taking life gave Adam a deeper and more perfect sense of his transgression, which nothing less than the death of God’s dear Son could expiate. He marveled at the infinite goodness and matchless love which would give such a ransom to save the guilty.{LHU 25.3}[3]
高举主耶稣-第12章
亚当在杀害那无辜的祭牲时,感觉自己好象是在亲手流上帝儿子的血。他深知要是他保持了对上帝忠诚不移,谨守祂神圣的律法,人类和兽类原本都不至于死亡。然而在这预表上帝爱子伟大而完全之牺牲的祭礼中,却出现了希望的星,照明了那黑暗而可怕的未来,解救了它脱离了全然的绝望和败亡。{LHU25.4}
高举主耶稣-第12章
As Adam was slaying the innocent victim, it seemed to him that he was shedding the blood of the Son of God by his own hand. He knew that if he had remained steadfast to God, and true to His holy law, there would have been no death of beast or of man. Yet in the sacrificial offerings, pointing to the great and perfect offering of God’s dear Son, there appeared a star of hope to illuminate the dark and terrible future, and relieve it of its utter hopelessness and ruin.{LHU 25.4}[4]
高举主耶稣-第12章
当初每一个家庭的家长,都认为是自己一家之主和祭司。后来,当人类在地上增多时,则由上帝所指派的人为众人举行了这一个严肃的献祭崇祀。罪人当因祭牲的血而联想到上帝儿子的宝血。祭牲的死将要向众人证明:罪的刑罚乃是死。罪人要借牺牲的礼节承认自己的罪,并且表现出自己的信心,仰望祭牲所预表的上帝儿子所作伟大与完全的牺牲。{LHU25.5}
高举主耶稣-第12章
In the beginning the head of each family was considered ruler and priest of his own household. Afterward, as the race multiplied upon the earth, men of divine appointment performed this solemn worship of sacrifice for the people. The blood of beasts was to be associated in the minds of sinners with the blood of the Son of God. The death of the victim was to evidence to all that the penalty of sin was death. By the act of sacrifice the sinner acknowledged his guilt and manifested his faith, looking forward to the great and perfect sacrifice of the Son of God, which the offering of beasts prefigured.{LHU 25.5}[5]
高举主耶稣-第12章
若没有上帝儿子赎罪之功,上帝的福祉或救恩就不可能传达给人类。上帝原是热心维护祂律法的尊严的。违背律法造成了上帝与人之间可怖的隔阂。当初亚当在清白无罪情况之下,蒙准和创造主保持直接,自由,而愉快的交往。在他犯了罪之后,上帝便要借着基督和众天使与人交往了。(SR.50,51).{LHU25.6}
高举主耶稣-第12章
Without the atonement of the Son of God there could be no communication of blessing or salvation from God to man. God was jealous for the honor of His law. The transgression of that law caused a fearful separation between God and man. To Adam in his innocency was granted communion, direct, free, and happy, with his Maker. After his transgression God would communicate to man through Christ and angels (The Story of Redemption, 50, 51).{LHU 25.6}[6]
高举主耶稣-第12章
这样的牺牲足能拯救全人类。……这个牺牲具有无限大的价值,能使接受的人较比精金更为珍贵,甚至使人比俄斐的纯金更为贵重。(SR.48,49).{LHU25.7}
高举主耶稣-第12章
Such a sacrifice was of sufficient value to save the whole world.... This sacrifice was of such infinite value as to make a man who should avail himself of it more precious than fine gold, even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir (The Story of Redemption, 48, 49).{LHU 25.7}[7]
