Outline
1四 在十五7~21神与亚伯拉罕立的约，在十七1~14用割礼得了坚立：
1D. The covenant that God made with Abraham in Genesis 15:7-21 was confirmed in Genesis 17:1-14 with circumcision:
2１ 在一节，神向亚伯拉罕启示祂自己为全丰全足的神；作为全丰全足的大能者，祂是恩典的源头，用祂神圣所是的丰富供应祂所呼召的人，使他们能产生基督作后裔，以完成神的定旨。
21. In verse 1 God revealed Himself to Abraham as the All-sufficient God; as the all-sufficient Mighty One, He is the source of grace to supply His called ones with the riches of His divine being so that they may bring forth Christ as the seed for the fulfillment of His purpose.
3２ 在十六章，亚伯拉罕运用他的肉体生了以实玛利；在十七章，神要亚伯拉罕割除他的肉体，了结他天然的力量，使神可以进来借着祂的恩典产生以撒。
32. In Genesis 16 Abraham exercised his flesh to produce Ishmael; in Genesis 17 God charged Abraham to cut off his flesh, to terminate his natural strength, so that God could come in and bring forth Isaac by His grace.
4３ 割礼的属灵意义乃是借着基督的钉十字架，脱去肉体，脱去己和旧人—西二11、13上，腓三3：
43. The spiritual meaning of circumcision is to put off the flesh, to put off the self and the old man, through the crucifixion of Christ—Col. 2:11, 13a; Phil. 3:3:
5ａ 属灵的割礼乃是不断地将基督的死应用于我们的肉体—加五24，罗八13。
5a. Spiritual circumcision is the constant application of Christ's death to our flesh—Gal. 5:24; Rom. 8:13.
6ｂ 割礼对付那想要凭着自己行神旨意并完成神应许的肉体；割礼的意义是割去肉体的自信—腓三3。
6b. Circumcision deals with the flesh that tries to do God's will and to fulfill His promise by itself; the significance of circumcision is to cut off the confidence of the flesh—Phil. 3:3.
7４ 借割礼坚立约，与完成神定旨的后裔和地有关—创十七2~8：
74. The confirmation of the covenant with circumcision concerns the seed and the land for the fulfillment of God's purpose—Gen. 17:2-8:
8ａ 为了完成神要人彰显并代表祂的永远定旨，我们需要得着基督作我们的后裔和地，为此我们需要受割礼，并过钉十字架的生活—加五24，六14。
8a. In order to fulfill God's eternal purpose that man express and represent Him, we need to have Christ as our seed and as our land, and for this we need to be circumcised and to live a crucified life—Gal. 5:24; 6:14.
9ｂ 当肉体、己和旧人被了结，门就开了，让神进来而生出以撒—创十八10、14，二一1~3。
9b. When the flesh, the self, and the old man have been terminated, the door is open for God to come in and bring forth Isaac—Gen. 18:10, 14; 21:1-3.

10西二11 你们在祂里面也受了非人手所行的割礼，乃是在基督的割礼里，脱去了肉体的身体。
10Col. 2:11 In Him also you were circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ.
11腓三3 真受割礼的，乃是我们这凭神的灵事奉，在基督耶稣里夸口，不信靠肉体的。
11Phil. 3:3 For we are the circumcision, the ones who serve by the Spirit of God and boast in Christ Jesus and have no confidence in the flesh.
12神向亚伯拉罕启示祂的名是伊勒沙代，就是全丰全足的大能者，要作恩典丰富供应的源头，以信守祂的约，完成祂的旨意，并再次与〔亚伯拉罕〕立约（创十七1~2、4）。在这次的约中，神用割礼来作立约的证据，以坚定祂给亚伯拉罕应许的约。这给我们看见，神赐给祂选民美地的应许，虽然已经立为祂赐给祂选民的约，但还需要割礼的约来坚定神应许的约。割礼是神的选民承受神的应许所必须经过的手续，预表神新约中的选民必须经过十字架的对付，才能承受并得享神所应许在基督里的一切丰富（真理课程三级卷一，六八页）。
12God revealed to Abraham that His name is El Shaddai, the all-sufficient Mighty One, implying that He would be the source of the rich supply of grace to keep His covenant for the fulfillment of His purpose. Moreover, He again made a covenant with him (Gen. 17:1-2, 4). In making this covenant, God used circumcision as evidence of the covenant to confirm the covenant of promise which He gave to Abraham. This shows us that although the promise of the good land given by God to His chosen people had been made a covenant by God to His elect, there was still the need to confirm the covenant of God’s promise with the covenant of circumcision. Circumcision was the procedure which God’s chosen people had to pass through to inherit God’s promise. It signifies that God’s elect in the New Testament must pass through the dealing of the cross so that they may inherit and enjoy all the riches in Christ promised by God.

Today's Reading
13在新约里，我们可以看到割礼的意义。割礼的属灵意义就是脱去肉体，脱去己和旧人〔参西二11~12〕。……严格说来，割礼与对付罪无关；割礼乃是与基督一同钉十字架，并一同埋葬。割礼的意思就是了结你的己，了结你的肉体。在创世记十六章亚伯拉罕用他的肉体，但在十七章这里，神要他割去肉体。在十六章他用天然的力量，但在十七章他的力量必须被了结。这就是受割礼。
13In the New Testament we can find out the significance of circumcision. The spiritual meaning of circumcision is to put off the flesh, to put off the self and the old man [cf. Col. 2:11-12]…In a strict sense, circumcision has nothing to do with the dealing with sin; it is a matter of being crucified and buried with Christ. Circumcision means to terminate your self, to terminate your flesh. Abraham exercised his flesh in Genesis 16, but here, in Genesis 17, God wanted his flesh to be cut off. In Genesis 16 he had exercised his natural strength, but in Genesis 17 his strength had to be terminated. This is circumcision.
14只要我们天然的力量还在，神就很难进来作我们的一切，来完成祂的定旨。神要进到我们里面作我们的一切，但我们的肉体、我们天然的人和力量、我们的旧人、我们老旧的己，阻挠神来作我们的一切。这个己，这个旧人，必须被了结，必须受割礼，也就是必须钉十字架。我要告诉你们好消息，我们的旧人已经钉了十字架（罗六6）。……我们都必须看见这事实，算定这事实，并且凭信接受这事实。我们能凭信宣告，我们的肉体，我们天然的人及其力量，已经钉了十字架。“我已经与基督同钉十字架；现在活着的，不再是我，乃是基督在我里面活着。”（加二20）旧人，己，已经钉了十字架；我们都需要凭这认识活着。我们若宣告这事实，并照着这事实生活，复活的神就立刻有路进到我们里面，作我们的一切，以完成祂的经纶。
14As long as our natural strength remains, it is difficult for God to come in to be our everything for the fulfillment of His purpose. God wants to come into us to be everything to us, but our flesh, our natural being and strength, our old man and our old self, are a frustration to God’s being everything to us. This self, this old man, must be terminated. It must be circumcised, that is, crucified. I want to tell you the good news that our old man has been crucified already (Rom. 6:6)…We all must see this, reckon on it, and take it by faith. By faith we can declare that our flesh, our natural man with its strength, has been crucified. “I am crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me” (Gal. 2:20). We all need to live with the realization that the old man, the self, has been crucified. If we declare this and live according to it, then the God of resurrection immediately has the way to come into us and to be everything to us for the carrying out of His economy.
15借割礼坚立约，与完成神定旨的后裔和地有关（创十七2~8）。……为了得着基督作我们的后裔和地，以完成神的定旨，我们需要受割礼，并过钉十字架的生活。……当肉体、己和旧人被了结，门就开了，让神进来而生出以撒。
15The confirmation of the covenant by circumcision concerned the seed and the land for the fulfillment of God’s purpose (Gen. 17:2-8)…In order to have Christ as the seed and the land for the fulfillment of God’s purpose, we need to be circumcised and to live a crucified life…When the flesh, the self, and the old man have been terminated, the door is open for God to come in and bring forth Isaac.
16所有不受割礼的人都与这约隔绝。在创十七14神对亚伯拉罕说，“但不受割礼的男子必从民中剪除，因他背了我的约。”今天这也是真实的。我们若不过钉十字架的生活，我们便与基督，与召会生活，并与神圣乳房的供应隔绝。什么时候我们不愿受割礼，在完成神永远的定旨上，我们就了了。今天我们享受神，凭基督活着，实行召会生活，全在于一件事，就是受割礼，过钉十字架的生活（创世记生命读经，七七二至七七五页）。
16All the uncircumcised people were cut off from this covenant. In 17:14 God said to Abraham, “As for the uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that person shall be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.” This is true today. If we do not live a crucified life, we are cut off from Christ, from the church life, and from the supply of the divine udder. Whenever we are unwilling to be circumcised, we are finished with the fulfilling of God’s eternal purpose. Today our enjoying God, our living by Christ, and our practicing the church life all depend upon one thing—upon circumcision, upon living a crucified life. (Life-study of Genesis, pp. 634-636)
