1六 亚伯拉罕的神是至高的神,天地的主,见于祂在亚伯拉罕与四王争战后,借着祂的祭司麦基洗德,将祂神圣的供应带给亚伯拉罕,并为他祝福—创十四17~20。
1F. The God of Abraham is God the Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth, in His divine supply with His blessing to Abraham through His priest Melchizedek after Abraham fought the battle against the four kings—Gen. 14:17-20.
2七 亚伯拉罕的神是那是盾牌并极大赏赐的神,见于祂在亚伯拉罕惧怕四王报复,而向他第五次说话时(这次是在异象中),向他指出那些按神圣性情是他属天后裔的,要如天上的星那样多,是地上任何人所不能摸着的;亚伯拉罕信耶和华,耶和华就以此算为他的义—十五1~6。
2G. The God of Abraham is the God of shield and exceedingly great reward, in His fifth speaking (this time in a vision) to Abraham, when he was afraid of the four kings' avenging, in pointing out to Abraham that his heavenly seed in their divine nature would be as many as the stars in heaven who could never be touched by anyone on earth; Abraham believed in Jehovah, and Jehovah accounted it to him as righteousness—15:1-6.
3八 亚伯拉罕的神是信实的神,见于祂在亚伯拉罕沉睡中,第六次向他说话时,对他预言,那些按属人性情是他属地后裔的,必寄居埃及,服事埃及人,被他们苦待四百年,到了第四代必回到迦南;祂是信实的神,也见于祂与亚伯拉罕立约,要把从埃及河直到伯拉大河之地赐给他的后裔—12~21节。
3H. The God of Abraham is the God of faithfulness, in foretelling to Abraham, in His sixth speaking to him in his deep sleep, that his earthly seed in their human nature would be sojourners in Egypt, serve the Egyptians, be afflicted by them for four hundred years, and in their fourth generation return to Canaan; and He is the God of faithfulness, in making a covenant with him that He would give to his seed the land from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates—vv. 12-21.
4九 亚伯拉罕的神是静默的神,由于亚伯拉罕在八十六岁时听从他妻子撒拉,娶了夏甲,凭着肉体得着一个儿子(十六1~4、15~16);然后神向亚伯拉罕静默了十三年,直到他九十九岁,神才再向他显现(十七1)。
4I. The God of Abraham is the God of silence, due to the fact that Abraham listened to his wife Sarah and married Hagar to get a son by the exercise of his flesh when he was eighty-six years old (16:1-4, 15-16); then God became silent to Abraham for thirteen years, until he became ninety-nine years old, and God appeared to him again (17:1).

5创十五5~6 于是领他走到外边,说,你向天观看,数算众星,能数得过来么?又对他说,你的后裔将要如此。亚伯兰信耶和华,耶和华就以此算为他的义。
5Gen. 15:5-6 And He brought him outside and said, Look now toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are able to count them. And He said to him, So shall your seed be. And he believed Jehovah, and He accounted it to him as righteousness.
6亚伯拉罕的神是至高的神,天地的主,这是见于祂在亚伯拉罕与四王争战后,借着祂的祭司麦基洗德,将祂神圣的供应带给亚伯拉罕,并为亚伯拉罕祝福(创十四17~20)。……亚伯拉罕带了三百一十八个精练的家仆,击败了掳去罗得的四王(14~15)。在那次胜利中,亚伯拉罕救回了罗得和他的家人,以及他们的财物(16)。那时亚伯拉罕需要一些供应和使人舒爽的饮食。神的祭司来供应他饼和酒,作为一种使人舒爽的饮食,那样使人舒爽的饮食与主的桌子相似(太二六26~28)。在主的桌子上,主供应我们,使我们这些疲累困乏的罪人得舒畅(李常受文集一九九一至一九九二年第四册,一三一页)。
6The God of Abraham is seen as God the Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth, in His divine supply with His blessing to Abraham through His priest Melchizedek after Abraham fought the battle against the four kings (Gen. 14:17-20)…Abraham took three hundred eighteen of his trained servants to defeat the four kings who captured Lot (v. 14). In that victory he recovered Lot and his family with their possessions (v. 16). At that time Abraham needed some supply and refreshment. The priest of God came to serve him with bread and wine as a kind of refreshment, and that refreshment resembled the Lord’s table (Matt. 26:26-28). In the Lord’s table, He supplies us and refreshes us, the tired, weary sinners. (CWWL, 1991-1992, vol. 4, “The History of God in His Union with Man,” p. 98)

7神在第五次向亚伯拉罕说话时(这次在异象中),显示为那是盾牌并极大赏赐的神(创十五1~6)。……亚伯拉罕击败四王之后,可能惧怕四王报复;因此神来告诉亚伯拉罕,神要作盾牌保护他。神也要因亚伯拉罕救了罗得而作他的赏赐。神关心罗得,而亚伯拉罕与神合作,救了罗得。……这给我们看见,神在照顾祂子民的事上,是很细致的。
7The God of Abraham is revealed as the God of shield and exceedingly great reward in His fifth speaking (this time in a vision) to Abraham (Gen. 15:1-6)…After defeating the four kings, Abraham may have been afraid of their avenging. Thus, God came in to tell Abraham that He would be a shield to protect him. He would also be Abraham’s reward for his rescue of Lot. God was concerned for Lot, and Abraham cooperated with God to rescue him… This shows us that God is very fine in taking care of His people.
8神……也应许亚伯拉罕,那些按神圣性情是他属天后裔的,要如天上的星那样多,是地上任何人所不能摸着的。亚伯拉罕信耶和华,耶和华就以此算为他的义(5~6)。在罗马四章,保罗把这事看作称义的表样。神是盾牌,神是极大的赏赐,神也是称义者。神称义亚伯拉罕,意思是说,神对亚伯拉罕感到快乐,亚伯拉罕也完全与神和谐一致。他完全蒙神悦纳,与神没有问题。
8God also promised Abraham that his heavenly seed in their divine nature would be as many as the stars in heaven, which could never be touched by anyone on earth. Abraham believed in Jehovah, and Jehovah accounted this believing to him for righteousness (vv. 5-6). In Romans 4 Paul considers this as the example of justification. God is the shield, God is the exceedingly great reward, and God is also the Justifier. God’s justifying of Abraham meant that God became happy with Abraham and that Abraham was altogether in harmony with God. He was altogether acceptable to God, having no problem with God.
9神……第六次向〔亚伯拉罕〕说话时,显示为信实的神。……在创十五12~21,……神在梦中对亚伯拉罕说话,预言那些按属人性情是“地上的尘沙”(十三16),是他属地后裔的,必寄居埃及……,到了第四代要回到迦南。因着神信守祂的应许,所以神也与亚伯拉罕立约,向亚伯拉罕保证,祂必信守祂的应许,把从埃及河(就是尼罗河),直到伯拉大河(就是幼发拉底河)之地赐给他的后裔。
9God is revealed as the God of faithfulness in His sixth speaking to Abraham…In Genesis 15:12-21…God spoke to Abraham in a dream, foretelling that his earthly seed in their human nature as “the dust of the earth” (13:16) would be sojourners in Egypt…and in the fourth generation return to Canaan. Because of His faithfulness in keeping His promise, He also made a covenant with him to assure him of His faithfulness in His promise that He has given to his seed the land from the river of Egypt, the Nile, to the great river, the river Euphrates.
10我们也看见,神对亚伯拉罕是静默的神。这是由于亚伯拉罕在八十六岁时听从他妻子撒拉,娶了夏甲,凭着肉体得着一个儿子(十六1~4、15~16)。那件事得罪神到了极点。然后神向亚伯拉罕静默了十三年,直到他九十九岁,神才再向他显现(十七1)。
10God is also seen as the God of silence to Abraham. This was due to the fact that Abraham listened to his wife Sarah and married Hagar to get a son by the exercise of his flesh when he was eighty-six years old (16:1-4, 15-16). That offended God to the uttermost. Then God became silent to Abraham for thirteen years, until he became ninety-nine years old, and God appeared to him again (17:1).
11亚伯拉罕的侄儿罗得与他离别之后,留下他孤单一人,没有后嗣承受他的产业,那时神对他说,“凡你所看见的一切地,我都要赐给你和你的后裔,直到永远。我也要使你的后裔如同地上的尘沙那样多。”(十三15~16)这是重复在十二章七节对亚伯拉罕的应许,坚定的保证神的应许是不变的,必使亚伯拉罕的后裔如同地上的尘沙那样多。
11When Abraham’s nephew Lot was separated from him, leaving him lonely with no heir to inherit his possession, God said to him, “All the land that you see I will give to you and to your seed forever. And I will make your seed as the dust of the earth” (13:15-16). This was to repeat the promise to Abraham in 12:7, with a strong confirmation of God’s unchangeable promise to make his seed as numerous as the dust of the earth.
12当亚伯拉罕救回他的侄儿罗得和他家人脱离掳掠的四王之后,他惧怕四王可能来寻仇,那时神在十五章,在异象中对亚伯拉罕说话。神应许亚伯拉罕,他的后裔必像天上的星那样多(5),并且与他立约(李常受文集一九九一至一九九二年第四册,一三一至一三四页)。
12When Abraham was afraid that the four kings might come to seek vengeance, after he had recovered his nephew Lot and his family from the four capturing kings, at this point in Genesis 15 God spoke to Abraham in a vision. God promised him that his seed would be as many as the stars in heaven (v. 5) and made a covenant with him. (CWWL, 1991-1992, vol. 4, “The History of God in His Union with Man,” pp. 98-100)
