圣民在与基督的联合里,对神更深的经历

The Saints’ Deeper Experience of God in the Identification with Christ
1读经:诗篇九十至九十二篇。诗篇是圣经中最难读也最难懂的一卷书,共分为五卷。卷一由一至四十一篇组成;卷二由四十二至七十二篇组成;卷三由七十三至八十九篇组成;卷四由九十至一百零六篇组成;卷五由一百零七至一百五十篇组成。诗篇分为这五卷,并不是照著年代的次序,即不是照著写作的时间。各卷的排列也不是照著教导的性质。各卷都有一些诗篇,搀杂了关于基督的启示,和诗人关于善恶思想的混杂情绪。
1Scripture Reading: Psa. 90—92 The Psalms, the most difficult book in the Bible to read and understand, is divided into five books. Book 1 is composed of Psalms 1 through 41; Book 2, of Psalms 42 through 72; Book 3, of Psalms 73 through 89; Book 4, of Psalms 90 through 106; and Book 5, of Psalms 107 through 150. The division of the Psalms into these five books is not according to chronological order, that is, it is not according to the time of writing. Neither is the arrangement of the books according to the nature of the teaching found in these books. In each book there are psalms that are a mixture of the revelation concerning Christ and the complex sentiments of the psalmists, sentiments that are according to the writers’ thought regarding good and evil
2在本篇信息中我们来到卷四;卷四和卷三同样有十七篇。卷四这十七篇有三类。九十至九十二篇属第一类;九十三至一百零一篇属第二类;一百零二至一百零六篇属第三类。我们很难说诗篇如何分为五卷,但我们能确定这排列不是出于人的心思。当然,有人作了这些排列,但那灵也在其中有分。我们在一九六九年查读诗篇时主给我们看见,诗篇是由那灵照著四个关键的辞分为五卷的,这四个辞乃是:基督、殿、城、地。虽然在诗篇第一篇讲到律法,但在第二篇诗人从律法转向基督。七节有耶和华关于祂儿子的颁令:『你是我的儿子;我今日生了你。』这指明神不在意律法,乃在意祂的儿子基督。二十七篇四节说到殿:『有一件事,我曾求耶和华,我仍要寻求;就是我一生的年日,要住在耶和华的殿中,瞻仰祂的荣美,在祂的殿里求问。』三十六篇八节说到因神殿里的肥甘得以饱足,并喝祂乐河的水,因为在祂那里有生命的泉源。(9上。)四十六篇四节上半说,『有一道河,这河的支流使神的城欢喜。』在四十八篇我们看到『我们神的城』
2In this message we come to Book 4, which, like Book 3, has seventeen psalms. The seventeen psalms in Book 4 are in three categories. Psalms 90—92 are in one category; Psalms 93—101 are in a second category; and Psalms 102—106 are in a third category. It is hard to say how the Psalms were divided into five books, but we can be sure that this arrangement was not made by the human mind. Of course, certain persons made the arrangement, but the Spirit was also involved. As the Lord showed us during our study of the Psalms in 1969, the five books of the Psalms were divided by the Spirit according to four crucial words: Christ, house, city, earth. Although Psalm 1 is on the law, in Psalm 2 the psalmist turns from the law to Christ. In verse 7 we have Jehovah’s decree concerning His Son: “You are My Son; / Today I havebegotten You.” This indicates that God does not care for the law but for His Son, Christ. In Psalm 27:4 we have a word concerning the house: “One thing I have asked from Jehovah; / That do I seek: / To dwell in the house of Jehovah / All the days of my life, / To behold the beauty of Jehovah, / And to inquire in His temple.” Psalm 36:8 speaks of being saturated with the fatness of God’sho use and of drinking of the river of His pleasures, for with Him is the fountain of life (v. 9a). Psalm 46:4a says, “There is a river whose streams gladden the city of God.” In Psalm 48 we find expressions such as “the city of our God” (v. 1) and “the
3(1) 和『大君王的城』(2)这样的
3city of the great King” (v. 2). In Psalm 72, the last Psalm
48辞。七十二篇,即卷二最后一篇,说到地。八节宣告:『祂要执掌权柄,从这海直到那海,从大河直到地极。』八十九篇,即卷三最后一篇,揭示基督是全地独一的占有者。所以,在诗篇里我们看见基督、殿、城、和地。
4in Book 2, we have a word about the earth. Verse declares, “He will have dominion from sea to sea / And from the River unto the ends of the earth.” Psalm 89, the last psalm in Book 3, unveils Christ as the unique Possessor of the whole earth. Therefore, in the Psalms we see Christ, the house, the city, and the earth.
5本篇信息叫作『圣民在与基督的联合里,对神更深的经历』,我们要来看九十至九十二篇。我们读这些诗篇时,需要寻求其中所启示关于对神更深的经历,以及与基督的联合。九十篇开头说到神是我们的居所:『主阿,你世世代代是我们的居所。』毫无疑问,圣经是惟一说到神能作我们居所的书。四十二篇一节说到切慕神,如鹿切慕溪水。在传扬福音时,我们也许告诉人,他们能喝、吃、并吸入主耶稣,但你曾否题到,他们能住在主里面?住在主里面比喝祂更深。我们许多人进入召会生活以后,到能见证喝、吃、并吸入基督,但你曾有住在基督里的思想么?诗篇不是关于善恶的书。诗篇是关于基督的书-关于喝基督、吃基督、吸入基督、并住在基督里的书。基督是活水,解我们的干渴。在三十六篇,神乐河的水是给我们喝的,神殿里的肥甘是给我们吃的。我们能喝、吃、并吸入主。如今在九十篇我们看见,我们也能住在主里面。
5In this message, entitled “The Saints’ Deeper Experience of God in the Identification with Christ,” we will consider Psalms 90 through 92. As we read these psalms, we need to seek what they reveal about the deeper experience of God and about the identification with Christ. Psalm 90 opens with a word concerning God as our dwelling place: “O Lord, You have been our dwelling place / In all generations.” To be sure, the Bible is the only book that tells us that God can be our dwelling place. Psalm 42:1 speaks of panting after God as a hart pants after streams of water. In preaching the gospel, we may tell others that they can drink, eat, and breathe the Lord Jesus, but have you ever told others that they can dwell in the Lord? Dwelling in the Lord is deeper than drinking Him. Many of us, after coming into the church life, can testify of drinking, eating, and breathing Christ, but have you ever had the thought of dwelling in Christ? Psalms is not a book on good and evil. Psalms is a book on Christ—a book on drinking Christ, eating Christ, breathing Christ, and dwelling in Christ. Christ is the living water to quench our thirst. In Psalm 36 the river of God’s pleasures is for our drinking, and the fatness of God’sho use is for our eating. We can drink, eat, and breathe the Lord. Now in Psalm 90 we see that we can also dwell in the Lord
6九十篇是摩西写的,他是颁赐律法同一切律例、和典章的人。在一节,这位年迈的律法颁赐者宣告,神世世代代是我们的居所。然后在二节他继续说,『诸山未曾生出,地与世界你未曾造成,从亘古到永远,你是神。』这是新的思想,全然是前所未有的事。你曾想过神是我们的居所么?从我年轻时,我就受圣经教师教导关于约翰十五章所题的住在基督里。主耶稣说,『你们要住在我里面,我也住在你们里面。』(4上)那时我领会『住』的意思是居留或停留,不是居住。但至终我学知『住』字原文的意思不仅仅是停留,也是居住。住在基督里,就是居住在祂里面,不仅是停留或居留而已。我们住在我们家里,就在那里过生活。我们的生命和生活全然与我们的居所紧密相联。我们在房子上所花的钱比在别的事上更多。有些人的确喜爱他们的房子,和其中一切的家具。不仅如此,我们的房子指明我们是怎样的人。例如,在苏格兰的人就以绝佳的照管他们的房子闻名。
6Psalm 90 was written by Moses, the one who gave the law with all the statutes and ordinances. In verse 1 this lawgiver, who was quite old, proclaimed that God is our dwelling place in all generations. Then in verse 2 he went on to say, “Before the mountains were brought forth, / And before You produced the earth and the world, / Indeed from eternity to eternity, You are God.” This was a new thought, something altogether unprecedented. Have you ever considered this matter of God’s being our dwelling place? From my youth I was taught by Bible teachers regarding the abiding in Christ mentioned in John 15. The Lord Jesus said, “Abide in Me and I in you” (v. 4a). At that time I understood the word “abide” as meaning to stay or to remain, not to dwell. But eventually I learned that the Greek word translated “abide” means not simply to remain but also to dwell. To abide in Christ is to dwell in Him, not just remain or stay in Him. When we dwell in our house, we have our life and our living there. This means that our life and living are altogether wrapped up with our dwelling place. We spend more money on our house than on any thing else. Some people really love their house and all the furniture in it. Furthermore, our house indicates the kind of person we are. In Scotland, for example, the people are known for the excellent way they care for their houses.
7照著摩西在诗篇九十篇一节的话,我们的家,我们的居所,乃是我们的主三一神。住在神里面,乃是对神更深的经历。当我们经历三一神到以祂为居所的地步,我们对神就有更深的经历。正如我们所指明的,九十至九十二篇是关于圣民在与基督的联合里,对神更深的经历。我们看过,对神更深的经历就是住在神里面,但关于与基督的联合,这些诗篇里启示了甚么?要答覆这问题,我们需要读九十一篇九节:『因你已将耶和华我的避难所,就是那至高者,当作你的居所。』九十篇的作者摩西,以耶和华为他的11居所,九十一篇的作者也是如此。十一至十二节指明,九节的『你』和『你的』指基督。这些经文在马太四章六节被引用,且被应用到基督身上。这启示不仅摩西以神为他的居所,甚至主耶稣在地上的时候,也以父神为祂的居所。赐律法的摩西,和赐恩典基督,同样以神为他们的居所,为他们的住处。
7According to Moses’ word in Psalm 90:1, our house, our dwelling place, is the Triune God as our Lord. Dwelling in God is the deeper experience of God. When we experience the Triune God to the degree that we take Him as our dwelling place, we have the deeper experience of God. As we have indicated, Psalms 9 0 through 9 2 are about the saints’ deeper experience of God in the identification with Christ. We have seen that the deeper experience of God is to dwell in God, but what is revealed in these psalms concerning the identification with Christ? To answer this question we need to read 91:9: “You have made Jehovah, who is my refuge, / Even the Most High, Your habitation.” Moses, the writer of Psalm 90, took Jehovah as his dwelling place, and the writer of Psalm 91 did the same thing. Verses and 12 indicate that “You” and “Your” in verse 9 refer to Christ. These verses are quoted in Matthew 4:6 and applied to Christ. This reveals that not only Moses took God as his dwelling place, but even the Lord Jesus, while He was on earth, took God the Father as His habitation. Moses, the lawgiver, and Christ, the grace- giver, were the same in taking God as their dwelling place, as their habitation.
8以神为我们的住处,我们的居所,是对神最高、最完全的经历。以神为我们的居所,乃是经历祂到最完全的地步。我们中间可能没有人敢说,他一直住在神里面。但这是基督所作的。祂在地上过人性生活时,一直以父神为祂的居所。与基督联合,不仅联于祂的死、祂的复活、祂的升天,也联于祂以神为居所。我们需要与基督联合到这样的地步。有许多很好的书,写到我们在基督的死、复活、和升天里与祂联合。宾路易(JessiePenn-Lewis)师母强调在基督的死里与祂联合;史百克(T.)弟兄强调在基督的复活里与祂联合;倪弟兄强调在基督的升天里与祂联合。我们若要在基督的死、复活和升天里与祂联合,就需要住在基督里。我们若不住在基督里,就与祂分开,因而没有与祂联合。我们能在基督的死、复活和升天里与祂联合,惟一的路就是住在基督里;而住在基督里不仅是停留在祂里面,更是居住在祂里面,以祂为我们的一切。
8To take God as our habitation, our dwelling place, is the highest and fullest experience of God. To take God as our dwelling place is to experience Him to the fullest extent. Probably no one among us would dare to say that he dwells in God all the time. But this is what Christ did. When He was living His human life on earth, He continually took God the Father as His habitation. To be identified with Christ is to be identified with Him not only in His death, in His resurrection, and in His ascension but also in His taking God as His habitation. We are identified with Christ to such an extent. A number of good books have been written on our identification with Christ in His death, resurrection, and ascension. JessiePenn - Lewis emphasized the identification with Christ in His death; T. Austin-Sparks, Austin-Sparks the identification with Christ in His resurrection; and Brother Nee, the identification with Christ in His ascension. If we would be identified with Christ in His death, resurrection, and ascension, we need to abide in Christ. If we do not abide in Christ, we are separated from Him and thus are not identified with Him. The only way that we can be identified with Christ in His death, resurrection, and ascension is to abide in Christ, and to abide in Christ is not only to remain in Him but also to dwell in Him, taking Him as our everything.
9住在我们家里,意思是我们在家里以许多不同的方式过生活。例如,我在家里,坐在餐桌前舒适的座位上吃饭。同样,住在神里面,就是在神里面过生活。我们常说到吃基督,但我们需要看见,当我们吃基督的时候,应当住在祂里面。现在我们逐篇来看这三篇。
9To dwell in our house means that we have our living there in many different ways. For instance, I eat my meals at home, sitting in my comfortable seat at the dining table. Likewise, to dwell in God is to have our living in God. Often we speak about eating Christ, but we need to see that when we eat Christ, we should be dwelling in Him. Let us now consider these three psalms one by one
10壹诗篇卷四揭示圣民在与基督更深的联合里,对神更深的经历,以及神恢复祂对地的主权与权利诗篇卷四揭示圣民在与基督更深的联合里,对神更深的经历,以及神恢复祂对地的主权与权利。这指明我们住在神里面的经历,乃是为基督来占有地铺路,使神恢复祂对地的主权与权利。主权指所有权,权利指神对地所有的权利。若没有圣民对神更深的经历,神就无法恢复祂的主权与权利。这就是说,我们若只喝基督、吃基督、并吸入基督,而没有以基督为我们的居所,神仍无法恢复地。这思想见于约翰十五章。在约翰十四章二节主耶稣说,『在我父的家里,有许多住处…我去是为你们豫备地方。』这些住处不是一般所认为天堂15:4的房间,乃是父家里的地方。在十五章四节主继续说,『你们要住在我里面。』这启示基督不仅是通往家的路,祂就是家本身。住在基督里,就是居住在祂里面。藉著我们住在基督里,祂就有路恢复地。一诗篇卷一揭示基督,
10I. Psalms Book 4 unveiling the saints’ deeper experience of God in the identification with Christ and God’s recovery of his title and right over the earth Psalms Book 4 unveils the saints’ deeper experience of God in the identification with Christ and God’s recovery of His title and right over the earth. This indicates that our experience of dwelling in God paves the way for Christ to come to posses the earth that God may recover His title and right over the earth. Title refers to ownership, and right refers to all God’s rights over the earth. Without the saints’ deeper experience of God, God has no way to recover this title and right. This means that if we drink Christ, eat Christ, and breathe Christ without taking Christ as our habitation, God has no way to recover the earth. This thought is found in John 15. In John 14:2 the Lord Jesus said, “In My Father’s house are many abodes...I go to prepare a place for you.” These abodes are not rooms in a heavenly mansion, as commonly supposed, but places in the Father’sho use. In the Lord went on to say, “Abide in Me.” This reveals that Christ is not only the way to the house—He is the house itself. To abide in Christ is to dwell in Him. By our dwelling in Him Christ has a way to recover the earth. A. Psalms Book 1 Unveiling Christ, and Books 2 and 3

贰 圣民在与基督的联合里,
II. The Saints’ Deeper Experience of God
一 圣民对神更深的经历
A. The Saints’ Deeper Experience of God
13九十篇揭示圣民对神更深的经历。
13Psalm 90 unveils the saints’ deeper experience of God
1 以从亘古到永远的神为他们的居所
1. Taking God from Eternity to Eternity as Their Dwelling Place
14正如我们所指出的,一至二节说到圣民以从亘古到永远的神为他们的居所。祂世世代代是我们的居所。从亘古到永远,祂是神。
14As we have pointed out, verses 1 and 2 speak of the saints’ taking God from eternity to eternity as their dwelling place. He has been our dwelling place in all generations. From eternity to eternity He is God
2 领悟人生的短暂,及其罪恶与痛苦
2. Realizing the Short Span of Human Life and Its Sins and Afflictions
15你若以神为你的居所,就会领悟你在地上的人生是短暂的。(3~11。)在十节摩西说,『我们一生的年日是七十岁,若是强壮,可到八十岁;但其中所矜夸的,不过是劳苦愁烦,转眼成空,我们便如飞而去。』然而,对主而言,千年『如已过的昨日,又如夜间的一更。』(4。)照著圣经,活得最久的人是玛土撒拉;他活了九百六十九岁。然而,在神看来,这还不到一日。我们短暂的人生满了罪恶与痛苦。人若有这样的领悟,他必是以神为他居所的人。我要住在神里面,每分钟活在祂里面,因为在祂以外只有罪恶与痛苦。
15If you take God as your dwelling place, you will realize that the span of your life on earth is short (vv. 3-11). In verse 10 Moses said, “The days of our years are in sum seventy years, / Or, if because of strength, eighty years; / But their pride is labor and sorrow, / For it is soon gone, and we fly away.” With the Lord, however, a thousand years are “like yesterday when it passes by / And like a watch in the night” (v. 4). According to the Bible, the person who lived the longest was Methuselah; he lived nine hundred sixty-nine years. In the sight of God, however, this was less than a day. The short span of our life is full of sins and afflictions. If one has such a realization, he must be one who takes God as his dwelling place. I want to dwell in God, living in Him every minute, for outside of Him there are sins and afflictions
3 求神指教他们数算自己的日子
3. Asking God to Teach Them to Number Their Days
16摩西照著住在神里面的领悟写作,他祷告说,『求你指教我们怎样数算自己的日子,好叫我们得著智慧的心。』(12。)得著智慧的心,使我们能过欢呼喜乐的生活。(13~17。)摩西深刻的体会,他需要学习如何数算自己的日子,使他能过快乐的生活。我们回顾昨日,也许觉得羞耻;这指明我们需要神教导我们如何数算自己的日子。年轻人也许不领会这话的意义,但身为年长者,我能见证我的确知道如何数算自己的日子。每一天我都数算。
16Moses, writing according to the realization that comes from dwelling in God, prayed, “Teach us then to number our days / That we may gain a heart of wisdom” (v. 12). Gaining a heart of wisdom enables us to live a glad and rejoicing life (vv. 13-17). Moses had the deep feeling that he needed to learn how to number his days so that he could live a happy life. As we look back upon yesterday, we may feel shameful. This indicates that we need to let God teach us how to number our days. Young people may not understand the meaning of this, but as an elderly person I can testify that I do know how to number my days. I number every day
二 在与基督的联合里
B. In the Identification with Christ
17与基督联合的事揭示在九十一篇。1以耶和华至高者为他们的居所,
17The matter of the identification with Christ is unveiled in Psalm 91. 1. Making Jehovah the Most High Their Habitation,
住在祂的隐密处,并住在祂翅膀的荫下
Dwelling in the Secret Place and Abiding in His Shadow under His Wings
18在与基督的联合里,圣民以耶和华至高者为他们的居所,住在祂的隐密处,并住在祂翅膀的荫下。(1~9。)我们都需要住在隐密处,藉此住在神里面。这乃是与神真正的一。在这里神成了我们,我们由祂来构成,并且与神同活如同一人。
18In the identification with Christ, the saints make Jehovah the Most High their habitation, dwelling in His secret place and abiding in His shadow under His wings (vv. 1-9). We all need to dwell in God by dwelling in the secret place (v. 1). This is the real oneness with God. Here God becomes us; we are constituted with Him; and we and God live together as one.
2 在使者的保守照顾之下,并且践踏仇敌撒但
2. Being under the Keeping Care of the Angels and Treading upon the Enemy Satan
19在与基督的联合里,我们就在使者的保守照顾之下,并且践踏仇敌撒但。(诗九一11~13,太四6。)诗篇九十一篇十三节说,『你必踹在狮子和虺蛇的身上,践踏少壮狮子和大蛇。』这里撒但被比喻为吞吃神子民的狮子,和毒害神子民的大蛇。在马太四章我们看见,主耶稣在地上过人性生活时,祂在天使的看顾之下,天使保护祂脱离撒但和邪灵;十一节说,天使进前来服事祂。今天天使也保护并防卫我们,如希伯来一章所指明的。
19In the identification with Christ, we are under the keeping care of the angels, and we tread upon the enemy Satan (vv. 11-13; Matt. 4:6). Psalm 91:13 says, “You will tread upon the lion and the cobra; / You will trample the young lion and the serpent.” Here Satan is likened to a lion that devours God’sp eople and to a serpent that poisons God’sp eople. In Matthew 4 we see that while the Lord Jesus was living a human life on earth, He was under the care of the angels, who protected Him from Satan and the evil spirits. Matthew 4:11 says that angels came and ministered to Him. The angels are also protecting and safeguarding us today, as indicated by Hebrews 1
3 将他们的爱定于神身上;蒙神安置在高处;并在他们延长的日子里,看见神的救恩
3. Setting Their Love upon God, Being Set on High by Him, and Seeing His Salvation in the Extension of Their Days
20在与基督的联合里,圣民将他们的爱定于神身上;蒙神安置在高处;并在他们延长的日子里,看见神的救恩。(诗九一14~16。)这些经文是指著基督所说的豫言。基督将祂的爱定于父神身上。祂已被高举到诸天之上的至高处,并且如今在祂复活里,延长的日子里,看见神的救恩。基督死了,但在复活里祂要活到永远。所以,祂能说,『我曾死过,看哪,现在又活了,直活到永永远远。』(启一18上。)这是祂在复活里延长的日子,不仅要完成诗篇九十一篇所豫言的救恩,也要完成以赛亚五十三章所豫言的救恩。
20In the identification with Christ, the saints set their love upon God; they are set on high by Him; and they see His salvation in the extension of their days (Psa. 91:14-16). These verses are a prophecy referring to Christ. Christ set His love upon God the Father. Christ has been exalted to the highest place in the heavens, and He is now seeing God’ss alvation in the extension of His days in resurrection. Christ died, but in resurrection He will live forever. Therefore, He could say, “I became dead, and behold, I am living forever and ever” (Rev. 1:18a). This is the extension of His days in resurrection for the carrying out of His salvation prophesied not only in Psalm 91 but also in Isaiah 53.
21在这一切事上,我们该与基督联合。我们若与基督联合,就要以神为我们的居所。我们要在基督的钉十字架、复活、升天、并以神为祂居所的事上,与祂成为一。然后我们要与祂同活,将我们的爱定于神身上。因此,我们要被高举,并且要在我们延长的日子里,看见神的救恩。
21In all these matters we should be identified with Christ. If we are identified with Christ, we too will take God as our habitation. We will be one with Christ in His crucifixion, in His resurrection, in His ascension, and in His taking God as His habitation. Then we will live with Him and set our love upon God. Thus, we will be exalted, and we will see God’ss alvation in the extension of our days
三 结果
C. The Issue
22诗篇九十二篇给我们看见,在与基督的联合里,对神更深经历的结果。
22Psalm 92 shows us the issue of the deeper experience of God in the identification with Christ
1 因耶和华极大的工作而高兴
1. Rejoicing in the Great Works of Jehovah
23第一个结果是圣民因耶和华极大的工作而高兴。(1~9。)我们若不住在神里面,以神为我们的居所,我们即使看见许多事,这些事也没有意义。但我们若住在神里面,以祂为我们的居所,我们就要看见祂极大的工作。例如,今天我住在神里面,我就能看见祂的恢复扩展到俄罗斯和波兰;这当然是极大的工作。藉著住在神里面,我们要看见祂极大的工作,并因此而欢乐。
23First, the issue is that the saints rejoice in the great works of Jehovah (vv. 1-9). If we do not dwell in God, not taking God as our habitation, we may see many things, but these things will be insignificant. But when we dwell in God, taking Him as our habitation, we see His great works. For example, as I dwell in God today, I can see the spreading of His recovery to Russia and to Poland. Surely this is a great work of God. By dwelling in God we will see His great works and rejoice in them
2 耶和华高举他们的角,他们被新油调和
2. Their Horns Being Exalted by Jehovah, and They Being Mingled with Fresh Oil
24在十节诗人说,『你却高举了我的角,如野牛的角;我是被新油膏了的。』这里的『膏』(与利未记二章四节所用者同),原文也可译为『调和』。新油是终极完成的灵,是新鲜且即时的。我能见证已过五年,我比从前更享受被新油调和,并且在主里满了喜乐。
24In verse 10 the psalmist says, “You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; / I am anointed with fresh oil.” The Hebrew word translated “anointed” here (the same word used in Leviticus 2:4) can also be rendered “mingled.” The fresh oil is the consummated Spirit, who is fresh and present. I can testify that in the last five years I have enjoyed being mingled with fresh oil more than ever, and I have been full of joy in the Lord
3 发旺如棕树,生长如利巴嫩的香柏树
3. Flourishing like the Palm Tree and Growing like a Cedar in Lebanon
25诗篇九十二篇十二至十四节说,『义人要发旺如棕树,生长如利巴嫩的香柏树。他们栽种在耶和华的殿中,发旺在我们神的院里。他们年老的时候,仍要结果子;要满了汁浆而常发青。』这是一班人的图画;他们住在神里面,在神殿中以祂为生活的一切,藉此更深的经历神。
25Psalm 92:12 through 14 says, “The righteous man will flourish like the palm tree; / He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon. / Planted in the house of Jehovah, / They will flourish in the courts of our God. / They will still bring forth fruit in old age; / They will be full of sap and green.” The poetry here is a picture of those who experience God in a deeper way by dwelling in Him, taking Him as everything in their living in the house of God.
