诗人对神殿与基督的爱

The Psalmist’s Love
for the House of God with Christ
1读经：诗篇八十四篇。在本篇信息中，我们要来看诗篇八十四篇；本诗是关于诗人对神殿与基督的爱。
1Scripture Reading: Psa. 84 In this message we will consider Psalm 84, which is concerned with the psalmist’s love for the house of God with Christ
壹 在神的对付和剥夺之后
I. After God’s dealing and stripping
2八十四篇是在好些关于神的对付和剥夺的诗篇之后。诗篇卷三说到神的许多对付和剥夺。例如，在七十三篇，诗人因著神的对付和剥夺感到困惑，直到他进入神的圣所才明白过来。在这样的诗篇里，诗人的情形与约伯几乎一样。主要的不同是诗人经历神的对付和剥夺，而约伯更经历了神的销毁。八十四篇用一个特别的辞－『流泪（巴迦）谷』。『巴迦』原文意『流泪』，所以巴迦谷就是流泪谷。这个特别的辞指明诗人受了神的对付和剥夺。
2Psalm 84 comes after a number of psalms on God’s dealing and stripping. Book 3 of the Psalms has much to say about God’s dealing and stripping. For example, the psalmist in Psalm 73 was puzzled by God’s dealing and stripping and did not become clear concerning this until he entered into the sanctuary of God. The situation of the psalmists in such psalms was nearly the same as Job’s. The main difference is that whereas the psalmists experienced God’s dealing and stripping, Job also experienced God’s consuming. Psalm 84 uses a special term—“the valley of Baca.” “Baca” means “weeping.” Hence, the valley of Baca is the valley of weeping. This special term indicates that the psalmist had been dealt with by God and had been stripped by Him
3贰住在神殿中的，便为有福四节说，住在神殿中的，便为有福。这里的『殿』表征召会整体。
3II. Blessed being those who dwell in God’sHo use Verse 4 says that those who dwell in God’sho use are blessed. Here “house” signifies the church as a totality
一 诗人羡慕渴想神的居所
A. The Psalmist Longing, Even Fainting, for God’s Habitations
4一至二节说，『万军之耶和华阿，你的居所何等可爱！我的魂羡慕渴想耶和华的院宇；我的心肠，我的肉体，向活神呼吁。』神的帐幕，神的居所，表征众地方召会。诗人当时还未在神的居所里，但他羡慕在那里。他的羡慕强烈到一个地步，甚至是渴想。这指明诗人爱神的居所到何等的程度。二在两座坛，麻雀找到了家；
4Verses 1 and 2 say, “How lovely are Your tabernacles, / O Jehovah of hosts! / My soul longs, indeed even faints, / For the courts of Jehovah; / My heart and my flesh cry out / For the living God.” God’s tabernacles, God’s habitations, signify the local churches. The psalmist was not yet in God’s habitations, but he longed to be there. His longing was so great that he even fainted. This indicates to what extent the psalmist loved God’s habitations. B. The sparrow finding a home and the swallow a nest for herself
燕子为自己找到了菢雏之窝
Where she may lay her youngat the two altars
5诗人继续将自己比喻为麻雀和燕子：『万军之耶和华，我的王，我的神阿，在你的两座坛，麻雀找到了家；燕子为自己找到了菢雏之窝。』（3。）这两座坛是金香坛和铜燔祭坛。（出四十5～6。）各种祭物献于其上的铜祭坛，是在帐幕门口的外院子里﹔洗濯盆也在外院子里。圣所里有陈设饼桌子、灯台和金香坛。
5The psalmist goes on to liken himself to the sparrow and the swallow: “At Your two altars, even the sparrow has found a home; / And the swallow, a nest for herself, / Where she may lay her young, / O Jehovah of hosts, my King and my God” (v. 3). These two altars are the golden altar for incense and the brass altar of burnt offering (Exo. 40:5-6). The brass altar, on which all kinds of offerings were offered, was in the outer court before the door of the tabernacle. The laver was also in the outer court. In the Holy Place were the table of showbread, the lampstand, and the golden altar for incense.
1 在外院子里的铜祭坛，
1. The brass altar in the outer court where
一切消极的事物已为祭物所对付
all negative things have been dealt withby the offerings
6铜祭坛豫表基督的十字架。在这祭坛，一切消极的事物已为豫表基督的祭物所对付。在十字架那里，基督除去我们的罪，钉死旧人，废除撒但，审判属撒但的世界，并了结旧造和一切消极的事物。所以，在十字架那里，我们一切的问题都得了解决；在十字架那里，我们开始相信主耶稣。在十字架那里，我们承认自己的罪；在十字架那里，我们也蒙了赦免。这使我们有资格进入圣所，来到陈设饼桌子那里接受粮食，来到灯台那里接受光照，并来到金香坛那里，经历基督作我们蒙神悦纳的香。2在至圣所前的金香坛，
6The brass altar typifies the cross of Christ. At this altar all the negative things have been dealt with by the offerings, which typify Christ. At the cross Christ took away our sins, crucified the old man, destroyed Satan, judged Satan’s cosmos, and terminated the old creation and all the negative things. It was at the cross, therefore, that all our problems were solved, and it was at the cross that we first believed in the Lord Jesus. At the cross we confessed our sins, and at the cross we were forgiven. This qualified us to enter into the Holy Place and to come to the showbread table to receive food, to the lampstand to receive light, and to the golden altar to experience Christ as our incense acceptable to God. 2. The Golden Altar in Front of the Holy of Holies
神的子民在平安中蒙神悦纳
Where God’sP eople Are Accepted by God in Peace
7至圣所前的金香坛，是神的子民在平安中蒙神悦纳的地方。这香豫表在升天里复活的基督作神的悦纳。（启八3。）基督作我们的香乃是馨香、可爱、可蒙悦纳的。在基督以外，我们无法蒙神悦纳；基督是我们的悦纳。在消极一面，在铜祭坛那里，我们的问题因著钉十字架的基督得以解决；在积极一面，在金香坛那里，我们在升天、复活的基督里蒙神悦纳。在基督受死以前，有一层幔子分隔了约柜所在的至圣所和金香坛所在的圣所。因此，在约柜与金香坛之间有幔子。有些经文明说金香坛在幔子外，有些经文指明金香坛属于至圣所。（来九4，王上六22。）基督死的时候，祂裂开了那分隔圣所与至圣所的幔子，（太二七51，来十20，）所以如今在约柜与金香坛之间不再有幔子的间隔。出埃及四十章五至六节将金香坛与铜祭坛相题并论，这事实指明这两座坛有密切的关系。这两座坛在我们的经历中也有密切的关系。首先，我们来到铜祭坛－十字架，在那里一切消极的事物受了对付。我们经历这祭坛的结果，使我们得著洁净，有资格进入帐幕，在香坛那里接触神。
7The golden altar for incense in front of the Holy of Holies is where God’sp eople are accepted by God in peace. This incense typifies the resurrected Christ in His ascension as the acceptance to God (Rev. 8:3). As our incense Christ is fragrant, pleasant, and acceptable. Apart from Christ we cannot be accepted by God. Christ is our acceptance. On the negative side, at the brass altar our problems were solved by the crucified Christ; on the positive side, at the golden altar we become acceptable to God in the resurrected Christ in His ascension. Before Christ’s death there was a veil separating the Holy of Holies, where the ark was, from the Holy Place, where the golden altar was. Thus, there was a veil between the ark and the golden altar. Whereas some verses say clearly that the golden altar was outside the veil, other verses indicate that the golden altar belonged to the Holy of Holies (Heb. 9:4; 1 Kings 6:22, ASV). When Christ died He rent the veil that separated the Holy Place from the Holy of Holies (Matt. 27:51; Heb. 10:20), so now there is no longer a veil, a separation, between the ark and the golden altar. The fact that Exodus 40:5 and 6 mention the golden altar together with the brass altar indicates that these two altars are closely related. They are closely related also in our experience. First, we come to the altar of brass, to the cross, where all negative things are dealt with. As a result of our experience at this altar, we are clean and are qualified to enter into the tabernacle to contact God at the incense altar.
3 藉此二坛，蒙神救赎的人找到他们与神安息的家
3. Through These Two Altars God’s Redeemed Finding Their Home with God in Rest
8藉此二坛，蒙神救赎的人能找到他们与神安息的家。诗篇八十四篇三节说到家和窝。家和窝之间的不同是甚么？家是安息的地方，而窝是避难的地方。今天对我们而言，铜祭坛乃是避难所。我们将自己藏在十字架之下，逃避我们的难处，因此我们就得著遮盖且有避难所。然后在金香坛那里，我们接触我们在诸天之上的基督。这接触不是为著避难，乃是为著安息。
8Through these two altars God’s redeemed can find their home with God in rest. Psalm 84:3 speaks both of a home and of a nest. What is the difference between a home and a nest? Whereas a home is a place of rest, a nest is a place of refuge. For us today, the brass altar is a refuge. We hide ourselves under the cross, escaping our troubles, and thus we are covered and have refuge. Then at the golden altar we contact our Christ in the heavens. This contact is not for refuge—it is for rest
9燕子是微小、软弱的，且被暴风和许多其他的事物所搅扰。但燕子有窝，就是避难所。如同燕子来到能菢雏之窝，我们也来到作我们避难所之基督的十字架这里。在这里我们可带来我们的『雏』，就是我们传扬福音时所接触的人。按属灵说，在十字架的『窝』这里，我们该『菢』雏，就是产生属灵的儿女。菢雏就是藉著传扬福音而产生他们。要这样作，我们需要将罪人带到基督的十字架。在十字架这里，我们有我们的窝，我们的避难所可以『菢雏』，就是产生属灵的儿女。在接触十字架以前，他们是罪人，但藉著接触十字架，他们成为信徒，就是在主里年幼的儿女。我们教导年幼的人呼求主时，他们就学习在香坛那里向神献上祷告。因此在他们的经历中，这两座坛有密切的关系。我们已指出，这篇关于诗人对神殿与基督之爱的诗篇，说到神的居所与神的殿。在豫表里，帐幕－居所－是众地方召会，殿是召会整体。我们来到召会－神的殿时，就被两座坛所吸引，这二者是非常显著的。在第一座坛－铜祭坛那里，我们承认我们的罪、失败和缺点。在十字架这里，我们的问题得以解决，并且我们彀资格进入神里面。然后我们可以来到金香坛接触神。
9A swallow is small and weak and is troubled by storms and by many other things. But a swallow has a nest, a refuge. Like a swallow coming to the nest where she may lay her young, we may come to the cross of Christ as our refuge. Here we may bring our “young,” those whom we contact in our preaching of the gospel. Spiritually speaking, at the “nest” of the cross we should “lay” our young, our spiritual children. To lay the young is to produce them through the preaching of the gospel. To do this we need to bring sinners to the cross of Christ. It is here, at the cross, that we have our nest, our refuge, and it is here that we “lay our young,” that is, produce our spiritual children. Before contacting the cross they were sinners, but by contacting the cross they become believers, young children in the Lord. As we teach our young to call on the Lord, they will learn to offer prayer to God at the altar of incense. Then in their experience these two altars will be closely related. We have pointed out that this psalm on the psalmist’s love for the house of God with Christ speaks of God’s tabernacles and God’sho use. In type, the tabernacles, the habitations, are the local churches, and the house is the church as a totality. When we come to the church, the house of God, we are attracted by the two altars, both of which are very striking. At the first altar, the brass altar, we confess our sins, failures, and defects. Here at the cross our problems are solved, and we are qualified to enter into God. Then we may come to the golden altar to contact God
10在铜祭坛我们遇见钉十字架的基督，但在金香坛，钉十字架的基督成了升天的基督；基督在祂的升天里成为我们的悦纳。无论我们在自己里面是多么善良或纯洁，我们一在基督以外，就无法蒙神悦纳。我们惟有在基督里，才能蒙神悦纳。这是基督成为我们的香的意义。
10At the brass altar we meet the crucified Christ, but at the golden altar the crucified Christ becomes the ascended Christ. In His ascension Christ becomes our acceptance. No matter how good or pure we may seem to be in ourselves, we cannot be acceptable to God apart from Christ. We can be acceptable to God only in Christ. This is what it means for Christ to become our incense.
11启示录八章三节指明，我们的祷告要蒙神悦纳，就必须有基督作香加在其中。这就是我们需要在主的名里祷告的原因。有的时候，我们会以『在主耶稣的名里』这句话来结束我们的祷告。我们若在自己的名里祷告，就不会蒙神悦纳；惟有在主的名里祷告，我们才会蒙神悦纳，因那时基督是香，是可悦的馨香之气，成为我们的悦纳。在基督里面，我们对神不仅是可蒙悦纳的，对祂也是馨香、可悦的。我们在召会里首先找到避难所，然后找到家。在我们得救并进入召会以前，我们不仅在流浪，无家可归，我们也没有任何防卫、保护或藏身之处。当我们来到召会中，就立刻来到铜祭坛，基督的十字架那里，解决了我们的问题，找到了藏身之处，就是避难所。我们将自己藏在十字架里。然后当我们继续接触神，在香坛那里祷告神时，我们就觉得我们是安息在家里。我们许多人能见证，这是我们来到召会时的感觉。我们在召会中经历这两座坛时，就能与保罗同说，『我曾定了主意，在你们中间不知道别的，只知道耶稣基督，并这位钉十字架的。』（林前二2。）我们只知道基督和祂的十字架。十字架是我们的避难所，我们的藏身之处，基督自己是我们的悦纳。日复一日，我们来到这两座坛这里﹔日复一日，我们在此隐藏并安息。我们来到十字架跟前，在这里我们有避难所；我们也来到基督跟前，在这里我们有安息并且在家里。
11Revelation 8:3 indicates that in order for our prayer to be accepted by God, it must have Christ as the incense added to it. This is why we need to pray in the Lord’s name. Sometimes we may conclude our prayer with the words “in the name of the Lord Jesus.” If we pray in our own name, we will not be acceptable to God. Only when we are in the Lord’s name will we be acceptable to God, for then Christ as the incense, as a pleasant fragrance, will be our acceptance. In Him we will be not only acceptable to God but also fragrant and pleasant to Him. In the church we first find a refuge, and then we find a home. Before we were saved and came into the church, we not only were wandering and homeless, but we were also without any safeguard, protection, or hiding place. When we came to the church, we came immediately to the brass altar, the cross of Christ, and there, having the solution to our problems, we found a hiding place, a refuge. We hid ourselves in the cross. Then as we went on to contact God, praying at the incense altar, we had the sense that we were resting at home. Many of us can testify that this was our feeling when we came to the church. As we experience these two altars in the church, we can say with Paul, “I did not determine to know anything among you except Jesus Christ, and this One crucified” (1 Cor. 2:2). We know only Christ and His cross. The cross is our refuge, our hiding place, and Christ Himself is our acceptance. Day by day we come to these two altars. Day by day we are hiding and resting. We come to the cross, where we have refuge, and we come to Christ, where we rest and are at home
三 住在神殿中的，便为有福，他们要赞美祂
C. Those Being Blessed Who Dwell in God’sHo use, Praising Him
12诗篇八十四篇四节说，『住在你殿中的，便为有福。他们仍要赞美你。』住在神的殿中乃是要赞美祂。然而，我们常常缺少赞美。我们的活力排该满了赞美。不赞美主就沉睡，赞美祂就有活力。赞美主该是我们的生活，我们的召会生活该是赞美的生活。
12Psalm 84:4 says, “Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; / They will yet be praising You.” To dwell in God’sho use is to praise Him. Quite often, however, we are lacking in praise. Our vital groups should be full of praising. Not to praise the Lord is to be dormant, but to praise Him is to be vital. Praising the Lord should be our living, and our church life should be a life of praising.
四 住在神的院宇一日，胜似在别处千日
D. A Day to Dwell in God’s Courts Being Better than a Thousand
13『在你的院宇一日，胜似在别处千日；我宁愿在我神殿的门槛，不愿住在恶人的帐棚里。』（诗八四10，参结四七3～5，启二十4～6。）这里诗人说到站在门槛那里的人；门槛是里面和外面的分界线。我的确愿意作站在神殿门槛那里的人。
13For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand; / I would rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God / Than dwell in the tents of the wicked” (v. 10; cf. Ezek. 47:3-5; Rev. 20:4-6). Here the psalmist speaks of one who stands at the threshold, which is the dividing line between the inside and the outside. I surely would like to be one who stands at the threshold of the house of God
参 心中想往锡安大道的，这人便为有福
III. Blessed being the man whose heart is on the highways to Zion
14诗篇八十四篇五至七节启示，心中想往锡安大道的人便为有福。想往锡安大道，意思是我们想要进入召会中。事实上，我们想要在召会生活里的心意，就是我们进入召会的大道。
14Psalm 84:5-7 reveals that the one is blessed whose heart is on the highways to Zion. To be on the highways to Zion means that we intend to come into the church. Actually, our intention to be in the church life is a highway for us to come into the church
一 在神里面有力量
A. Having Strength in God
15『在你里面有力量…，这人便为有福。』（5。）这指明在锡安大道，在神里面，使我们有力量。我们许多人能见证，在我们进入召会生活以前，我们软弱、犹豫，但我们一旦定意来到召会中，就在神里面得了加强。
15Blessed is the man whose strength is in You” (v. 5a). This indicates that on the highways to Zion we have strength in God. Many of us can testify that before we came into the church we were weak and hesitant, but once we made the decision to come to the church, we were strengthened in God
二 经过流泪谷
B. Passing through the Valley of Baca
16六节上半说到经过流泪谷。我们已经指出，『巴迦』原文意『流泪』。一面，当我们有意进入召会生活时，就在神里面得了加强；另一面，我们也受到撒但的反对；他使许多圣徒遭受逼迫。撒但所引起的难处和逼迫，使我们的大道成为流泪谷。
16Verse 6a speaks of passing through the valley of Baca. As we have pointed out, “Baca” means “weeping.” On the one hand, when we had the intention to come into the church life, we were strengthened in God; on the other hand, we were opposed by Satan, who has caused many saints to suffer persecution. The trouble and persecution caused by Satan can make our highway a valley of weeping
三 叫流泪谷变为泉源之地
C. Making the Valley of Weeping a Spring
17我们经过流泪谷时，神叫这谷变为泉源之地。（6中。）我们若走大道往神的殿去，难处和逼迫会临到我们，这样的事使我们流泪。但神要将我们的眼泪变为泉源。惟有流泪的人会有泉源。我们流泪越多，泉源就越大。
17When we pass through the valley of Baca, God makes this valley a spring (v. 6b). If we take the highway to go to God’sho use, trouble and persecution will come to us, and such things will cause us to weep. But God will turn our tears into a spring. Only those who weep will have a spring. The more tears we shed, the greater will be the spring
四 秋雨之福盖满了全谷
D. The Early Rain Covering the Valley of Weeping with Blessings
18六节下半说，『并有秋雨之福，盖满了全谷。』按我们的经历，这意思是我们的眼泪成为泉源，这泉源成为盖满全谷的秋雨之福。秋雨就是那灵，那灵是我们的福。
18Verse 6c says, “Indeed the early rain covers it with blessings.” According to our experience, this means that our tears become a spring and that this spring becomes the early rain that covers the valley with blessings. This early rain is the Spirit, and the Spirit is our blessing
19烟台有一位弟兄的情形正是如此。他在相信主耶稣以前是回教徒。他得救并进入召会生活以后，遭受许多逼迫。这些逼迫几乎叫他丧命，他也流了许多眼泪。但那些眼泪成了泉源，泉源成了如秋雨的那灵；结果这位弟兄变得非常的活。因著经过流泪谷而进入召会生活的人，会发觉这样流泪至终对他们成为大福。就是那灵。他们所流的眼泪是自己的，但这些眼泪成为泉源；这泉源成为秋雨，就是那灵的福。
19This was the situation with a certain brother in Chefoo. Before he believed in the Lord Jesus, he was a Moslem. After he was saved and came into the church life, he suffered a great deal of persecution. This persecution nearly killed him, and he shed many tears. But those tears became a spring; the spring became the Spirit as the early rain; and as a result this brother was very living. Those who come into the church life by passing through the valley of weeping will find that this weeping eventually becomes a great blessing to them. This blessing is the Spirit. The tears they shed are their own, but these tears become a spring, which becomes the early rain, the Spirit as the blessing
五 行走力上加力
E. Going from Strength to Strength
20『他们行走，力上加力。』（7上。）这指明力量加上力量。走锡安大道的人，已经在神里面有力量，如今他们进一步得著加力，因此行走力上加力。
20They go from strength to strength” (v. 7a). This indicates that strength is added to strength. Those who take the highway to Zion already have strength in God, and now they are strengthened further and thus go from strength to strength
六 到锡安朝见神
F. To Appear before God in Zion
21『各人到锡安朝见神。』（7下。）往前的结果就是我们到锡安朝见神。我们宝贵神的居所，因为锡安在这里。我们宝贵召会生活，因为我们在锡安这里。虽然我们是在地上，但我们也是在属天的锡安。（来十二22。）
21Each appears before God in Zion” (v. 7b). The issue of the foregoing is that we appear before God in Zion. We treasure God’s habitation because Zion is here. We treasure the church life because here we are in Zion. Even though we are on earth, we are nonetheless in the heavenly Zion (Heb. 12:22
肆 诗人的祷告
IV. THE PSALMIST’SPRAY ER
22诗篇八十四篇八、九、十一和十二节
22Verses 8, 9, 11, and 12 are the psalmist’spray er
23是诗人的祷告。
23
一 祷告神垂顾他们的盾牌，看祂受膏者的面
A. Praying That God Will Behold Their Shield and Look upon the Face of His Anointed
24『神阿，垂顾我们的盾牌，看你受膏者的面。』（9。）这节的『盾牌』指豫表基督的大卫王，『受膏者』也指大卫王。这里诗人的祷告说到大卫，说他是保护他们的盾牌，并且是神的受膏者。然而在豫表里，这受膏者乃是基督。我们在祷告中可以说，『神阿，看你受膏者基督的面；祂是我们的救主。』
24Behold our shield, O God; / And look upon the face of Your anointed” (v. 9). The “shield” in this verse refers to David the king, and the “anointed” refers also to David the king, typifying Christ. Here the psalmist prayed concerning David, saying that he was the shield to protect them and that he was God’san o in ted. In typology, however, this anointed one, is Christ. In our prayer we may say, “O God, look upon the face of Christ, Your anointed One, who is our Savior
二 在基督里享受耶和华我们的神作日头、盾牌、恩惠和荣耀，一无所缺
B. To Enjoy Jehovah Our God in Christ as a Sun, a Shield, Grace, and Glory, Lacking Nothing
25十一节上半说，『耶和华神是日头、是盾牌。』日头是光的源头，光赐下生命。植物、动物、和人类都需要日光，好存活并长大。在我们属灵的生命中，我们也需要日光，为此有基督作我们光和生命的源头。在十一节中至下半诗人继续说，耶和华赐下恩惠和荣耀，祂未尝留下一样好处。恩惠和荣耀都是神自己。恩惠是神作我们的享受，荣耀是神作我们的荣美。所以，在这些经文里，在基督里的耶和华神之于我们是四样东西：盾牌、日头、恩惠和荣耀。八十四篇是照著诗人的背景写的，与约伯的背景非常类似。在十一节下半诗人说，神『未尝留下一样好处，不给那些行动正直的人』。在十二节他继续宣告：『万军之耶和华阿，信靠你的人，便为有福。』十一节下半里『那些行动正直的人』，在诗人纷杂的情绪中，可能指那些遵守律法的人。十二节『信靠你的人』，在诗人纷杂的情绪中，也可能指住在神殿里的人。
25Verse 11a says, “Jehovah God is a sun and a shield.” The sun is the source of light, and light gives life. Plants, animals, and human beings all need sunlight in order to live and grow. In our spiritual life, we also need sunlight, and for this we have Christ as our source of light and life. In verse 11b - c the psalmist goes on to say that Jehovah gives grace and glory with nothing good withheld. Grace and glory are both God Himself. Grace is God for our enjoyment, and glory is God for our splendor. Therefore, in these verses Jehovah God in Christ is four things to us: the shield, the sun, the grace, and the glory. Psalm 8 4 was written according to the psalmist’s background, which was very similar to Job’s background. In verse 1 1 c the psalmist says that God “does not withhold anything good / From those who walk uprightly.” In verse 12 he goes on to declare, “O Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man / Who trusts in You.” In verse 11d “those who walk uprightly” probably refers, in the complex sentiments of the psalmist, to those who keep the law. In verse 12 “the man who trusts in You” probably refers, also in the complex sentiments of the psalmist, to the man who dwells in God’sho use.
26这里所有的乃是诗人纷杂情绪的混杂发表，这样的情绪不是照著神的启示。约伯行动正直，但神不仅留下东西不给他，并且剥夺他，销毁他。不仅如此，约伯信靠神，但未必有神的祝福。你信因为我们行动正直，所以我们今天享受基督作我们的日头、盾牌、恩惠和荣耀么？你信因为我们信靠神，祂就祝福我们么？我们必须承认，我们在自己里面无法行动正直，或坚定的信靠神，但我们因此会失去基督作我们的日头、盾牌、恩惠和荣耀么？不，这不是我们的情形。在豫表里，八十四篇给我们看见召会生活何等佳美，以及我们该如何宝贵召会生活。在此我们享受基督的十字架，也享受基督自己。我们都该走大道来到召会，然后住在这里。在此我们享受我们的大卫，我们的受膏者，我们的基督；祂是我们的日头、我们
26What we have here is the complex expression of the mixed sentiments of the psalmist. Such sentiments were not according to God’sr evelation. Job walked uprightly, yet God not only withheld something from him but also stripped him and consumed him. Furthermore, Job trusted in God, yet he did not always have God’s blessing. Do you believe that it is because we walk uprightly that we today enjoy Christ as our sun, shield, grace, and glory? Do you believe that it is because we trust in God that He blesses us? We must confess that in ourselves we cannot walk uprightly or have a firm trust in God. Does this mean that we lose Christ as our sun, shield, grace, and glory? No, this is not our situation. In type, Psalm 84 shows us how excellent the church life is and how we should treasure it. Here we enjoy the cross of Christ, and here we enjoy Christ Himself. We all should take the highway to come to the church and then dwell here. Here we enjoy our David, our anointed One, our Christ, who is our sun, our shield, our grace, and our glory
27的盾牌、我们的恩惠、和我们的荣耀。
27
