2１ 新耶路撒冷，属天的耶路撒冷，在上的耶路撒冷，是我们的母，这母乃是恩典的新约—来八7~13，十二22~23：

The Father is the grace-giver; the grace is the covenant; the covenant is the city, the Jerusalem above, the New Jerusalem, who is our mother; the sons produced by the mother are the components of the mother; and the mother returns to the Father to be one with Him, having come out from the Father and then going back to the Father as the destination—1:3; 1 Cor. 8:6.

11加四26 但那在上的耶路撒冷是自主的，她是我们的母。
11Gal. 4:26 But the Jerusalem above is free, which is our mother.
12来十二22~23 但你们乃是来到锡安山，来到活神的城，属天的耶路撒冷，……来到……众长子的 召会……。

13Galatians 4:26-28 and 31 reveal that the New Jerusalem is the mother of the believers. This mother is the Jerusalem above, the heavenly Jerusalem… The New Jerusalem, the heavenly Jerusalem, the Jerusalem above, is our mother, and this mother is the new covenant of grace. The new covenant is our mother because it brought us forth as children of freedom. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 2673)

14撒拉表征在上的耶路撒冷，也表征新约。这指明新耶路撒冷就是新约。……一面，新耶路撒冷是新约；另一面，新约产生新耶路撒冷。这是主对亚伯拉罕所应许的，也是亚伯拉罕所仰望并等候的。
14Sarah signifies both the Jerusalem from above and the new covenant, the new testament. This indicates that the New Jerusalem is the new covenant… On the one hand, the New Jerusalem is the new covenant; on the other hand, the new covenant produces the New Jerusalem. This is what the Lord promised to Abraham, and this is what Abraham looked to and waited for.
15在加拉太四章那是我们之母的妇人，就是新约。我们已经生在新约之下，而那在上的耶路撒冷乃是我们的母。这妇人是新约并我们的母，我们的母乃是神的恩典。在希伯来十二章，我们乃是来到由我们信徒所组成的召会。……我们与召会是一。在加拉太四章，新耶路撒冷作我们的母，原则是一样的。这妇人是众子，众子也就是母。此外，这母是恩典，恩典也就是母，因为我们都已经从恩典并借着恩典而生。这母也是新约，并且新约就是母。最终，新约还是圣城，那在上的耶路撒冷。至终，这母，就是在上的耶路撒冷，乃与父是一。父是赐恩者；恩典就是约；约又是城，就是那在上的耶路撒冷，她是我们的母；母所产生的众子，乃是母的组成成分；母归回于父，与父成为一，乃是由父而出，然后归回于父这目的地。
15The woman who is our mother in Galatians 4 is the new covenant. We have been born under the new covenant, and the Jerusalem from above is our mother. This woman is the new covenant and our mother, and our mother is the grace of God. In Hebrews 12 we have come to the church, which is composed of us as believers…We and the church are one. The principle is the same with the New Jerusalem as our mother in Galatians 4. The woman is the sons, and the sons are the mother. Furthermore, the mother is grace, and grace is the mother, because we all have been born of grace and through grace. This mother is also the new covenant, and the new covenant is the mother. Finally, the new covenant is also the holy city, Jerusalem from above. Eventually, the mother, Jerusalem from above, is one with the Father. The Father is the grace-giver; the grace is the covenant; the covenant is the city, the Jerusalem above, who is our mother; the sons produced by the mother are the components of the mother; and the mother returns to the Father to be one with Him, having come out from the Father and then going back to the Father as the destination.
16接受并遵守新约，就是来到属天的耶路撒冷和召会这里（来八7~13，十二22~23）。新约、属天的耶路撒冷和召会乃是一。要领会这点，我们必须看见加拉太书和希伯来书之间的连结。加拉太书对付犹太教，警告信徒不要退回到犹太教，乃要留在恩典里。希伯来书嘱咐我们不要漂回到旧约，乃要留在新约里。来七~十论到更美之约，就是新约。八章指明旧约过去了，新约已经进来取而代之。然后在十二章保罗告诉我们，我们已经来到锡安山，来到活神的城，来到召会（22~23）。
16To receive the new covenant and to keep it is to come to the heavenly Jerusalem and to the church (Heb. 8:7-13; 12:22-23). The new covenant, the heavenly Jerusalem, and the church are one. In order to understand this we need to see the link between Galatians and Hebrews. Galatians deals with Judaism, warning the believers not to backslide into Judaism but to stay in grace. Hebrews charges us not to drift into the old covenant but to remain in the new covenant. Hebrews 7 through 10 are on the better covenant, the new covenant. Hebrews 8 indicates that the old covenant is over and that the new covenant has come in to replace it. Then…Paul tells us that we have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, and to the church (12:22-23).
17信徒的母，乃是亚伯拉罕所仰望的城。“他等候那座有根基的城，其设计者并建筑者乃是神。”（十一10）来十二22指明这座城是什么，这节告诉我们，我们乃是来到属天的耶路撒冷，就是基督的妻并新约信徒的母这里，这母是由神的众子所组成，而众子乃是由她而生。因此，亚伯拉罕所等候并我们所来到的城，乃是基督的妻。
17The mother of the believers is the city for which Abraham was looking. “He eagerly waited for the city which has the foundations, whose Architect and Builder is God” (11:10). This city is identified in Hebrews 12:22, which tells us that we have come to the heavenly Jerusalem, the wife of Christ and the mother of the New Testament believers composed of the sons of God, who have been born of her. The wife of Christ is thus the city for which Abraham was waiting and to which we have come.
18神拣选亚伯拉罕作新族类的父，与新耶路撒冷并我们对她的领会相关联。神拣选亚伯拉罕，目的不仅是要将堕落的人类恢复到起初神创造人的情形里；反之，神拣选亚伯拉罕，目的乃是要完成祂的经纶。……神拣选亚伯拉罕，目的不是要将人恢复到在神创造里人起初的情形，乃是要产生许多的儿子。神在亚伯拉罕身上所作的一切，从头一步到末了一步，都是按照这原则（新约总论第八册，一四一至一四二、一四四、一三四、一三六页）。
18God’s choosing Abraham to be the father of the new race is related to the New Jerusalem and to our understanding of it. In choosing Abraham it was not God’s intention simply to restore fallen man to his original, God-created condition. Rather, in choosing Abraham, God’s intention was to carry out His economy…God’s intention in choosing Abraham was not to restore man to man’s original condition in God’s creation but to bring forth many sons. All that God did with Abraham from the first step to the last was according to this principle. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 2671-2672, 2674, 2667-2668)
