Outline
1肆 得胜的信徒由碧玉和其他宝石所表征—二一9~11、18~21：
1Ⅳ The overcoming believers are signified by jasper and other precious stones—21:9-11, 18-21:
2一 碧玉表征神显出来的样子，凭神的荣耀作新耶路撒冷的光照耀，以彰显神—四3，二一11、18~19。
2A Jasper signifies the appearance of God shining with the glory of God as the light of the New Jerusalem for the expression of God—4:3; 21:11, 18-19.
3二 其他宝石表征基督的荣美在不同方面的丰富，作神永远居所的根基—19~21节。三 我们借着审判的那灵、焚烧的那灵和涌流的那灵—就是主灵—而由对作复活之神的基督之丰富的经历所变化；这乃是经过受苦、消耗的压力，以及十字架的杀死所得着的—赛四4，十一2，约四14下，林后一8~9。
3B The other precious stones signify the riches of the beauty of Christ in different aspects for the foundation of God’s eternal dwelling—vv. 19-21. C By the judging Spirit, the burning Spirit, and the flowing Spirit—the Lord Spirit—we are being transformed by the experiences of the riches of Christ as the God of resurrection gained through sufferings, consuming pressures, and the killing work of the cross—Isa. 4:4; 11:2; John 4:14b; 2 Cor. 1:8-9.
4四 经过变化的过程，我们夸我们的软弱，并在基督耶稣里夸口，使作恩典之基督的能力覆庇我们—12节，十一30~33，十二7~9，罗五3，林前一29~31，腓三3。
4D Through the process of transformation, we boast in our weaknesses and boast in Christ Jesus so that the power of Christ as grace might tabernacle over us—v. 12; 11:30-33; 12:7-9; Rom. 5:3; 1 Cor. 1:29-31; Phil. 3:3.
5五 我们借着在基督这活石里，在神圣的生命中长大，变化为宝石；借着这变化的过程，三一神就被作到我们里面，并与我们构造在一起，使祂恩典的荣耀得着称赞，这恩典是祂在那蒙爱者里面所恩赐我们的，使我们成为新耶路撒冷，作为整本圣经的总结，并作为给整个宇宙的福音—彼前二4，林前三12上，弗一6，启二一18~21。
5E By our growth in the divine life in Christ as the living stone, we are being transformed into precious stones; through the process of transformation, the Triune God is being wrought into and structured together with us to the praise of the glory of His grace with which He graced us in the Beloved for us to become the New Jerusalem as the conclusion of the entire Bible and the good news to the entire universe—1 Pet. 2:4; 1 Cor. 3:12a; Eph. 1:6; Rev. 21:18-21.

6启四3 那位坐着的，显出来的样子好像碧玉……。
6Rev. 4:3 And He who was sitting was like a jasper stone…
7二一11 ……城的光辉如同极贵的宝石，好像碧玉，明如水晶。
721:11 …Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, as clear as crystal.
818~19 墙是用碧玉造的，城是纯金的……。城墙的根基是用各样宝石装饰的。第一根基是碧玉……。
818-19 And the building work of its wall was jasper; and the city was pure gold…The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every precious stone: the first foundation was jasper…
9现在我们来到新约所说信徒末了、完成、最显著的象征—碧玉和其他宝石。……至终所有的信徒都要变化成为宝石。我们天生是泥土，然而从我们得重生的时候起，我们就开始变化。
9Now we come to the last, consummating, and most striking symbol of the believers in the New Testament—jasper and other precious stones… Eventually all believers will be transformed into precious stones. By nature we are clay. But from the time we were regenerated, we began to be transformed.
10碧玉表征神显出来的样子，凭神的荣耀作新耶路撒冷的光照耀，以彰显神。启示录四章三节清楚告诉我们，坐在宝座上的神显出碧玉的样子。照二十一章十一节看，碧玉乃是“极贵的宝石……明如水晶”。它必是深绿色的，表征丰盛的生命。这里的碧玉，就如十一节所指明的，表征神在祂丰盛生命里可传输的荣耀（约十七22、2）。碧玉是神显出来的样子，也是圣城新耶路撒冷显出来的样子。城墙和第一根基也是用碧玉造的（启二一18~19）（新约总论第五册，二○四至二○五页）。
10Jasper signifies the appearance of God shining with the glory of God as the light of the New Jerusalem for the expression of God. In Revelation 4:3 we are clearly told that God sitting on the throne has the appearance of jasper which, according to 21:11, is “a most precious stone…clear as crystal.” Its color must be dark green, which signifies life in its richness. Jasper here, as 21:11 indicates, signifies God’s communicable glory in His rich life (John 17:22, 2). It is the appearance of God, which will also be the appearance of the New Jerusalem. The city’s wall and first foundation are built with it (Rev. 21:18-19). (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 1231)

11既然碧玉是神显出来的样子，是祂的彰显，既然我们要变化成为碧玉，那么这就是说，我们要成为三一神团体的彰显。……整座城要有神显出来的样子，神的彰显。这符合约壹三章二节的话：“我们晓得祂若显现，我们必要像祂；因为我们必要看见祂，正如祂所是的。”神与信徒要有同样的样子—碧玉的样子。这将是创世记一章二十六节终极的应验，因为这是三一神光辉、团体的彰显。在启示录二十一章十九至二十节，信徒由碧玉以外其他十一种宝石所象征。其他宝石表征基督的荣美在不同方面的丰富，作神永远居所的根基。基督是神在永世之建造的基石，所有的宝石是基督作根基之丰富的不同方面。
11Since jasper is God’s appearance, His expression, and since we shall be transformed into jasper, this means that we shall be the corporate expression of the Triune God…The entire city will bear God’s appearance, God’s expression. This corresponds to the word in 1 John 3:2: “We know that if He is manifested, we will be like Him because we will see Him even as He is.” God and the believers will have the same appearance—the appearance of jasper. This will be the ultimate fulfillment of Genesis 1:26, for this will be the splendid, corporate expression of the Triune God. In Revelation 21:19 and 20 the believers are symbolized by eleven other precious stones in addition to jasper [that] signify the riches of the beauty of Christ in different aspects for the foundation of God’s eternal dwelling. Christ is the foundation stone of God’s building in eternity, and all the precious stones are different aspects of the riches of Christ as the foundation.
12十九至二十节里宝石的颜色，显出一道彩虹的样子。这表征新耶路撒冷城是建造在神守约的信实上，并借着神这信实得以稳固（创九8~17）。因为根基建造在神用以守约的信实上，根基就是可信可靠的。所以，新耶路撒冷的根基乃是一道永远的彩虹担保神的信实。……神的信实是新耶路撒冷建造在其上的稳固根基（新约总论第五册，二○五至二○六页）。
12The colors of the precious stones in 21:19 and 20 give the appearance of a rainbow. This signifies that the city of New Jerusalem is built upon and secured by God’s faithfulness in keeping His covenant (Gen. 9:8-17). Because the foundation is built upon the faithfulness with which God keeps His covenant, it is trustworthy and reliable. Therefore, the foundation of the New Jerusalem will be an eternal rainbow guaranteeing the faithfulness of God… The faithfulness of God is the sure foundation upon which the New Jerusalem is built. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 1231-1232)
13〔启示录二十一章十九至二十节〕列出十二样宝石的名字，这十二样宝石是羔羊的十二使徒，每位使徒由一样宝石所表征。十二使徒的头一位，彼得，原名西门；当他被带到主面前时，主将他改名为彼得，意思就是石头（约一42）。后来，主说到召会的建造时，就以这名称呼他（太十六18）。……所有的使徒都是受造的泥土，但他们蒙了重生，并且变化成了为着神永远建造的宝石。每一位信徒都需要经过这样的重生和变化，才能成为新耶路撒冷的一部分。
13[Revelation 21:19-20 lists] the names of twelve precious stones, which are the twelve apostles of the Lamb, each of whom is signified by a precious stone. Peter, the first of the twelve apostles, was originally named Simon. When Simon was brought to the Lord, the Lord changed his name to Peter, meaning “a stone” (John 1:42). Later, the Lord called him by that name when He spoke concerning the building of His church (Matt. 16:18)…All the apostles were created as clay, but they were regenerated and transformed into precious stones for God’s eternal building. Every believer needs to be thus regenerated and transformed that he may be a part of the New Jerusalem.
14城墙的第一层根基和新耶路撒冷的整个城墙一样，都是用碧玉造的。这指明在圣城的建造里，主要的材料是碧玉。既然碧玉表征神彰显在祂可传输的荣耀里，圣城主要的功用也就是带着神的荣耀彰显神（启二一11）（启示录生命读经，八三○页）。
14The first layer of the wall’s foundation, as well as the entire wall of the New Jerusalem, is built with jasper. This indicates that the main material in the building of the holy city is jasper. Since jasper signifies God expressed in His transmittable glory, the main function of the holy city is to express God in bearing His glory (Rev. 21:11). (Life-study of Revelation, pp. 694-695)
