约伯记生命读经 · 第32篇

整本圣经中关于神与人的关系

The Completed Divine Revelation in the Entire Scriptures
1完成的神圣启示（一）读经：创世记1:26-27;2:9-12。我们需要来看整本圣经中，关于神与人的关系完成的神圣启示。看见这启示会帮助我们明白约伯记。在本篇信息中，我们要来看这启示的头三部分。
1Concerning God’s Relationship with Man (1) Scripture Reading: Gen. 1:26-27; 2:9-12 We need to see the completed divine revelation in the entire Scriptures concerning God's relationship with man. Seeing this revelation will help us to understand the book of Job. In this message we will cover the first three sections of this revelation
壹 从神创造人
I. FROM GOD'S CREATION OF MAN
到呼召亚伯拉罕
TO THE CALLING OF ABRAHAM
2圣经中关于神与人的关系包括法前时代，其中一部分是从神创造人到呼召亚伯拉罕。
2God's relationship with man in the Scriptures includes the dispensation, the section of time, before the law, part of which is the time from God's creation of man to the calling of Abraham
一 神创造人，要人接受祂作生命
A. God Creating Man and Wanting Man to Take Him as Life
3神创造人，是要人接受祂作生命，使人彰显祂，并变化成为宝贵的材料，为著祂的建造，且得以建造成为祂2:9-的配偶，与祂相配。（创一1:26-27;18-24。）神从亚当身上取了一条肋骨，建造成为女人，与亚当相配，作他的配偶。这是个豫表，显示神在基督里如何是丈夫，需要一个配偶与祂相配。因此，在这豫表的应验里，从基督出来了神圣的生命，成为召会，就是基督的新妇，与基督相配。
3God created man and wanted man to take Him as life that man might express Him, be transformed into precious materials for His building, and be built up to be His counterpart to match Him (Gen. 1:26-27; 12, 18-24). God took a rib out of Adam and built it up 2:9-12, into a woman to match Adam to be his counterpart. This is a type showing how God in Christ is the Husband, needing a match, a counterpart. Therefore, in the fulfillment of this type, something came out of Christ—the divine life—to become the church, which is the bride to match Christ.
二 人堕落之后，神应许堕落的人，基督要来成为女人的后裔
B. After Man Became Fallen, God Promising the Fallen Man That Christ Would Come as the Seed of Woman
4人堕落之后，神应许堕落的人，基督要来成为女人的后裔，为人毁坏那『蛇』撒但，并用祭牲（豫表基督）所流的血和祭牲的皮衣，救赎并称义人。（3:8-9,15,21。）这些是神与我们之关系的一部分。
4After man became fallen, God promised the fallen man that Christ would come as the seed of woman to destroy the "serpent," Satan, for man and to redeem and justify man with the shed blood and the coats of the skins of the sacrifice, typifying Christ (3:8-9, 15, 21). These things are a part of God's relationship with us
三 神因著燔祭而看中人，悦纳人
C. God Regarding Man and Being Pleased with Man in the Burnt Offering
5创世记四章四节和八章二十至二十二节说到豫表基督的燔祭。神看中人（就是尊敬人），悦纳人，不是因著人的善行，而是因著燔祭。这就是亚伯前来向神献燔祭，神看中他和他供物的原因。
5Genesis 4:4 and 8:20-22 speak of the burnt offering, a type of Christ. God regarded man, that is, respected man, and was pleased with man, not in man's good doing, but in the burnt offering. This is why Abel came to offer the burnt offering to God and God regarded both him and his offering.
四 神用洪水审判败坏的世界，并藉著方舟拯救挪亚和他全家
D. God Judging the Corrupted World with the Flood and Saving Noah and His Family
6神用洪水审判败坏的世界，并藉著方舟拯救挪亚和他全家。（六１１～２０。）方舟是基督的另一个豫表。
6God judged the corrupted world with the flood and saved Noah and his family through the ark (6:11-20). The ark is another type of Christ
五 神在巴别审判背叛的人
E. God Judging the Rebellious Man at Babel
7在神创造人到呼召亚伯拉罕的时代，神也在巴别审判背叛的人；巴别就是古代的巴比伦。（十一４～９。）
7In the time from God's creation of man to the calling of Abraham, God also judged the rebellious man at Babel, which was the ancient Babylon (11:4-9
贰 从呼召亚伯拉罕
II. FROM THE CALLING OF ABRAHAM
到藉著摩西颁布律法
TO THE DECREE OF THE LAW THROUGH MOSES
8第二个时代是从呼召亚伯拉罕到藉著摩西颁布律法的这个时期。这个时代最重要的事，乃是神对亚伯拉罕的应许。因这缘故，圣经教师称这时代为应许时代。
8The second dispensation covers the period of time from the calling of Abraham to the decree of the law through Moses. The most important aspect of this dispensation was God's promise to Abraham. For this reason, Bible teachers calls this dispensation the dispensation of promise
一 神因著燔祭而看中人
A. God Regarding Man in the Burnt Offering
9神在这时代也是因著燔祭而看中人，（创十二7，十三18，二二13，三一54，伯一5，）这是前一个
9As a continuation of the previous dispensation, God again regarded man in the burnt offering (12:7; 13:18; 22:13; 31:54; Job 1:5
10时代的继续。
10
二 神应许亚伯拉罕，地上万国必因他的后裔得福
B. God Promising Abraham That in His Seed All the Nations of the Earth Would Be Blessed
11此外，神也应许亚伯拉罕，地上万国（包括我们）必因他的后裔（要来的基督）得福。（创二二１８，加三８，１６。）至终，这应许完全应验了，如加拉太三章所启示的。
11In addition, God promised Abraham that in his seed, the coming Christ, all the nations of the earth, including us, would be blessed (Gen. 22:18; Gal. 3:8, 16). Eventually this promise was absolutely fulfilled, as revealed in Galatians 3
12参从藉著摩西颁布律法
12III. FROM THE DECREE OF THE LAW THROUGH MOSES TO THE FIRST COMING OF CHRIST
到基督第一次来
13第三个时代是从藉著摩西颁布律法到基督第一次来，称为律法时代。
13The third dispensation is the period of time from the decree of the law through Moses to the first coming of Christ. This is called the dispensation of the law
一 神颁布律法，以暴露以色列人在遵守律法上是无能的
A. God Decreeing the Law to Expose the Incapability of the People of Israel in Keeping the Law
14由于以色列人的瞎眼和顽梗，神就藉著摩西颁布律法，（出十九８，１６～二十２１，）以暴露以色列人在遵守祂的律法上是无能的。（罗三２０下，五２０上，七７。）神给亚伯拉罕应许，但他的后裔不认识自己，以为他们能作神所要求的。于是有律法赐给他们，以试验他们，证明他们没有性能和能力这么作。
14Due to the blindness and stubbornness of the people of Israel, God decreed the law through Moses (Exo. 19:8, 16—20:21) to expose the incapability of the people of Israel in keeping His law (Rom. 3:20b; 5:20a; 7:7). God gave Abraham the promise, yet his descendants did not know themselves, considering that they could do everything God required. The law was given to test them, to prove that they did not have the capacity and the capability to do so
二 神赐给以色列人帐幕和祭司体系并各种祭物
B. God Granting the People of Israel the Tabernacle with the Priesthood and All Kinds of Offerings
15神不仅赐给以色列人律法，也赐给以色列人帐幕和祭司体系并各种祭物，使他们可以敬拜、事奉、接触、并有分于神作他们的享受。（出二五～利二七。）帐幕、祭司体系和祭物，都豫表基督。基督是帐幕，是我们的祭司体系，也是我们的祭物。藉著祂，我们敬拜、事奉、接触神，并有分于神作我们的享受。
15God not only gave the people of Israel the law, but God also granted them the tabernacle with the priesthood and all kinds of offerings for them to worship Him, serve Him, contact Him, and partake of Him as their enjoyment (Exo. 25—Lev. 27). The tabernacle, the priesthood, and the offerings all typify Christ. Christ is the tabernacle, our priesthood, and our offerings. Through Him we worship God, serve God, contact God, and partake of God as our enjoyment
三 神应许以色列人，祂要藉著他们而成为肉体，作他们的基督
C. God Promising the People of Israel That He Would Be Incarnated through Them to Be Their Christ
16在这时代里，神应许以色列人，祂要藉著他们而成为肉体，作他们的基督。（赛七１４，九６～７。）
16In this dispensation God promised the people of Israel that He would be incarnated through them to be their Christ (Isa. 7:14; 9:6-7
四 神应许以色列人，基督要临到他们，作他们的一切
D. God Promising the People of Israel That Christ Would Come to Them as Their Everything
17不仅如此，神也应许以色列人，基督要临到他们，作他们的一切，并作神经纶的中心与普及，使他们得复兴，并使宇宙得复兴。（弥5:2-6，诗2:6-7，玛3:1;4:2，何6:2，赛2:2-4;。）
17Furthermore, God promised the people of Israel that Christ would come to them as their everything and as the centrality and universality of God'secon o my for their revival and for the restoration of the universe (Micah 5:2-6; Psa. 2:6-7; Mal. 3:1; 4:2; Hos. 6:2; Isa. 2:2-4; 11:6-10; 65:17-25). 11:6-10; 65:17-25
五 神应许以色列人，祂要将
E. God Promising the People of Israel
18祂的灵浇灌在一切属肉体的人身上
18That He Would Pour Out His Spirit upon All Flesh
19神也应许以色列人，祂要将祂的灵浇灌在一切属肉体的人身上。（珥二２８～２９，３２上。）这是为著在神新约的经纶里产生祂所拣选的人－召会。
19As another part of His relationship with man, God promised the people of Israel that He would pour out His Spirit upon all flesh (Joel 2:28-29, 32a). This would be for the producing of God's chosen people in His New Testament economy—the church.
六 神应许以色列人，要与他们立约，将祂自己作到他们里面
F. God Promising the People of Israel That He Would Covenant with Them to Work Himself into Them
20最后，神应许以色列人，要与他们立约，将祂自己作到他们里面，作他们的生命、他们生命的律、并他们的一切。（耶三一３１～３４。）约伯和他的朋友们可能是活在亚伯拉罕的时代。那时摩西五经尚未写成。他们必然在口头上从他们的先祖接受了一些神圣的启示。但他们从他们的先祖所接受的，最多只能达到在亚伯拉罕时代之启示的水平。因此，在他们关于神与人之关系的辩论中，没有一点迹象指明他们得著了超过有关神的审判，以及神因著人的燔祭而看中人的神圣启示。他们也没有说任何话含示关于基督和神的灵的事。他们乃是在神圣启示的原始阶段。
20Finally, God promised the people of Israel that He would covenant with them to work Himself into them to be their life, their law of life, and their everything (Jer. 31:31-34). Job and his friends probably lived in the age of Abraham. At that time the Pentateuch of Moses was not yet written. Surely they had received some divine revelation from their forefathers verbally. However, what they had received of their forefathers could reach, at most, only the level of the revelation in the age of Abraham. Hence, in their debates concerning God's relationship with man, there was no hint that indicates that they had received divine revelation beyond the matters of God's judgment and God's regard for man in his burnt offering. And they did not speak any word that implies anything concerning Christ and the Spirit of God. They were in the primitive stage of the divine revelation
