1The Second Coming Of Christ As The Servant Of Jehovah
耶和华仆人基督的再来，带来以色列和万物的兴，终极完成于新天新地
Bringing In The Restoration Of Israel And Of All Things, Which Consummates In The New Heaven And New Earth
2读经：以赛亚书64-66，61:6。
2Scripture Reading: Isa. 64—66; 61:6
3在本篇信息中，我们要来看六十四至六十六章。这几章启示耶和华的仆人基督第二次的来，带来以色列和万物的复兴，并终极完成于新天新地。这几章最显著的事，就是新天新地。
3In this message we will cover chapters sixty-four through sixty-six. These chapters reveal the second coming of Christ as the Servant of Jehovah, bringing in the restoration of Israel and of all things, which consummates in the new heaven and new earth. The most striking thing in these chapters is the new heaven and new earth
壹 、耶和华仆人基督的再来
I. The Second Coming Of Christ As The Servant Of Jehovah
4以赛亚六十四章一至五节上半，和六十六章十五至十六节，启示耶和华仆人基督的再来。（参赛三一4～5。）以赛亚六十四章一节说，『愿你裂天而降。』这是指基督从天降到地，从神来到人这里的终极完成。
4Isaiah 64:1-5a and 66:15-16 reveal the second coming of Christ as the Servant of Jehovah (cf. 31:4-5). Isaiah 64:1 says, “Oh that You would rend the heavens, that You would come down.” This refers to the consummation of Christ’s coming from heaven to earth, from God to man
5圣经给我们看见，基督没有意思要永远留在天上，祂愿意降临，并永远留在地上。然而，祂今天不能这么作，祂需要完成更新这地的工作。祂不是要停留在旧地上，乃是在新地上。
5The Bible shows us that Christ does not intend to remain in the heavens forever. Rather, He intends to come down to earth and remain on earth for eternity. However, before He can do this, He needs to accomplish His work of renewing the earth. He wants to stay not on the old earth but on the new earth
贰 、申言者的祷告
II. The Prophet’sPray er
6六十四章五节下半至十二节，乃是申言者的祷告。以赛亚认识神的心，并按著神的心祷告。首先，祂为以色列的罪恶、失败、罪孽、堕落、和败坏祷告。然后他求耶和华垂顾他们，他们都是祂的百姓。
6In 64:5b through 12 we have the prophet’spray er. Isaiah knew God’she art and prayed according to it . First , he confessed the sins, failures, iniquities, degradation, and corruption of Israel. Then he asked Jehovah to look at them as His people
参 、耶和华乐意那些素来没有访问祂的来求问祂
III. Jehovah Being Willing To Be Inquired Of By Those Who Did Not Ask For Him
7耶和华乐意那些素来没有访问祂的，来求问祂。祂整天伸出手招呼那悖逆的百姓，他们随自己的意念行不善之道，惹祂发怒；他们是祂鼻中的烟，是整天烧著的火。（赛六五1～7，11～12，六六1～6，17。）
7Jehovah is willing to be inquired of by those who did not ask for Him. He has stretched out His hands all day long to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts, who provoke Him to anger, and who are smoke in His nose, a fire that burns all day (65:1-7, 11-12; 66:1-6, 17).
8肆、耶和华必用『新酒』的福祝福
8IV. Jehovah Blessing Israel With The Blessing Of “New
以色列，他们必承受祂的山
Wine,” And They Possessing His Mountain
9耶和华必用『新酒』的福祝福以色列，他们必承受祂的山（锡安），并要住在那里，吃、喝、欢喜。（赛六五8～10，13～16。）在复兴的时候，必有新酒叫神和祂的百姓欢呼。不仅如此，以色列不再工作、劳苦，乃要吃、喝、欢喜。
9Jehovah will bless Israel with the blessing of “new wine,” and they will possess His mountain (Zion), dwelling there, eating, drinking, and rejoicing (65:8- 10, 13-16). In the restoration there will be new wine that will cheer God and His people. Furthermore, instead of working or laboring, Israel will eat, drink, and rejoice
伍 、必有复兴带给以色列，并带给万物
V . A Restoration Being Brought In Both To Israel And To All Things
10以赛亚六十五章十八至二十五节启示，必有复兴带给以色列，并带给万物。十八节说，『你们当因我所造的永远喜乐欢腾；因我造耶路撒冷使人欢腾，造其中的居民使人喜乐。』耶路撒冷必使人喜乐欢腾，她的百姓必喜乐。甚至神自己也要因耶路撒冷欢腾，因祂的百姓喜乐，其中必不再听见哭泣的声音，和哀号的声音。（赛六五19。）
10Isaiah 65:18-25 reveals that a restoration will be brought in both to Israel and to all things. Verse 18 says, “Rejoice and exult forever, / In what I create, / For I am now creating Jerusalem as an exultation / And her people as a rejoicing.” Jerusalem will be a joy and an exultation, and her people will rejoice. Even God Himself will exult in Jerusalem and rejoice in His people, and there will no longer be heard in her the voice of weeping and of crying (v. 19
11二十节接著说，『其中必没有数日夭亡的婴孩，也没有寿数不满的老者；因为百岁死的仍算孩童，有百岁死的罪人算被咒诅。』在复兴的时候，婴孩不会在成年以前夭亡，而百岁的人还被视为孩童。
11Verse 20 continues, “There will no longer be in her / An infant who reaches the age of only a few days / Nor an old man who does not fill up his days; / For the lad will die at a hundred years of age, / And the sinner, being a hundred years of age, will be cursed.” In the restoration, an infant will not die before reaching maturity, and one who dies at the age of a hundred will be regarded as a youth
12二十一至二十二节接著说，『他们要建造房屋，自己居住；栽种葡萄园，吃其中的果子。他们建造的，别人不得住；他们栽种的，别人不得吃。因为我民的日子必像树木的日子，我选民亲手工作得来的，必长久享用。』这里所说的工作是甚么？复兴的时候，神选民惟一所要作的工作，就是歌唱、赞美、敬拜、喜乐。
12Verses 21 and 22 go on to say, “They will build houses and inhabit them, / And they will plant vineyards and eat the fruit thereof. / They will not build and another inhabit; / They will not plant and another eat; / For like the days of a tree are the days of My people, / And My chosen ones will enjoy the work of their hands to the full.” What is the work mentioned here? The unique work carried out by God’sp eople in the restoration will be to sing, praise, worship, and rejoice
13『他必不徒然劳碌，所生产的，也不遭灾害；因为都是蒙耶和华赐福的后裔，他们的子孙也是如此。他们尚未求告，我就应允；正说话的时候，我就垂听。』（赛六五23～24。）呼求主将是他们的职业。甚至在他们求告以先，祂就应允。
13“They will not labor in vain, / Nor bear children unto turmoil; / For they are the seed of those blessed of Jehovah, / And their offspring with them. / And it will be that before they call, I will answer; / Even while they are speaking, I will hear” (vv. 23-24). Calling on the Lord will be their occupation. Even before they call, He will answer.
14二十五节下结语说，『豺狼必与羊羔同食，狮子必吃草与牛一样，尘土必作蛇的食物；在我圣山的遍处，这一切都不伤人不害物，这是耶和华说的。』这里的说法与十一章六至九节非常相似，那里也说到藉基督所带来的复兴。在这复兴里，死亡受到限制，并且有丰盛的生命和许多的赞美与喜乐。
14Verse 25 concludes, “The wolf and the lamb will feed as one, / And the lion will eat straw like the ox, / And dust will be the serpent’s food; / They will not harm nor destroy / In all My holy mountain, says Jehovah.” The expressions here are very similar to those in 11:6-9, which also speaks of the restoration brought in through Christ. In this restoration death will be limited, and there will be abundant life and much praise and rejoicing
陆 、锡安和耶路撒冷的复兴
VI. The Restoration Of Zion And Jerusalem
15以赛亚六十六章七至十四节说到锡安和耶路撒冷的复兴。这些经节指明，复兴的时候将是美妙的时候。比方，十二节说，『我要使平安延及她，好像江河；使列国的荣耀延及她，如同涨溢的河。』这荣耀是指列国的财富和产物，（参创三一1，16，斯一4，）这些都要带到耶路撒冷去。不仅如此，耶和华的仆人必知道祂手所行的；祂也要向祂的仇敌发恼恨。（赛六六14。）
15Isaiah 66:7-14 speaks of the restoration of Zion and Jerusalem. These verses indicate that the time of the restoration will be a wonderful time. For example, verse 12 says, “I now am extending to her / Peace like a river, / And the glory of the nations / Like an overflowing stream.” Here glory denotes the riches and produce of the nations (cf. Gen. 31:1, 16; Esth. 1:4), which will be brought to Jerusalem. Furthermore, whereas the hand of Jehovah will be made known to His servants, He will be indignant toward His enemies (v. 14
柒 、耶和华必招聚万民在耶路撒冷敬拜
VII. Jehovah Gathering The Nations To Worship At Jerusalem
16耶和华必招聚万民在耶路撒冷敬拜，他们必将分散的以色列人带来，作为素祭献给耶和华；耶和华也必从这些以色列人中间取人为祭司（参赛六一6）和利未人。（赛六六18～21。）今天我们将罪人作为祭物献给神，（罗十五，）但在复兴的时候，列国要将分散的以色列人带来，作为素祭献给神。就像古时候一样，有些人要被指派为祭司事奉，有些人要作利未人的事奉。
16Jehovah will gather the nations to worship at Jerusalem, and they will bring with them the scattered children of Israel as a meal offering to Jehovah, of whom Jehovah will take some for priests (cf. 61:6) and some for Levites (66:18-21). Today we offer sinners to God as sacrifices (Rom. 1 5:1 6), but in the restoration the nations will bring the 16 scattered Israelites as a meal offering to God. Just as in the ancient time, some will be appointed to serve as priests, and others will do the Levitical service.
17捌、终极完成于新天新地按照以赛亚六十五章十七节，和六十六章二十二至二十四节，耶和华的仆人基督所带进以色列和万物的复兴，要终极完成于新天新地。以赛亚书说到许多事，包括神的惩治与审判，却终极完成于新天新地。在许多事过去之后，存留下来的，将是新天新地同新耶路撒冷。
17VIII. Consummating In The New Heaven And New Earth According to Isaiah 6 5:1 7 and 6 6:2 2-2 4, the restoration of Israel and of all things brought in by Christ as the Servant of Jehovah consummates in the new heaven and new earth. The book of Isaiah covers many things, including God’s chastisement and judgment, but it consummates in the new heaven and new earth. After so many things have passed away, what will remain will be the new heaven and new earth with the New Jerusalem.
18在千年国里，犹太人是地上的祭司，信徒是天上的祭司。那时圣城新耶路撒冷只包括新旧约得胜的圣徒，不包括主再来时得救的以色列人。在千年国末了，撒但会鼓动反对者（主要是从歌革和玛各来的），攻击犹太人的营，和圣徒的城；但会有火从天降下，烧灭他们。（启二十9。）在千年国后的新天新地里，那些在主耶稣再来时得救的犹太人，要与新耶路撒冷调和。所以，在新天新地里，只有两种人。第一是新耶路撒冷，由信徒与犹太人组成，神的众子作为王室来管治列国，并作祭司事奉神，直到永远。第二是列国，他们是未得重生、只得著恢复的人，他们要在新耶路撒冷城外作神的百姓。（启二一3。）
18In the millennial kingdom the Jews will be priests on the earth, and the believers will be priests in the heavens. At that time, the holy city, New Jerusalem, will comprise only the overcoming Old Testament and New Testament saints, but not the Israelites who will be saved at the Lord’s coming back. At the end of the millennium, Satan will stir up opposers, mainly from Gog and Magog, to attack the camp of the Jews and the city of the saints, but fire will come down out of heaven to devour them (Rev. 20:9). In the new heaven and new earth after the millennium, the Jews who were saved at the coming of the Lord Jesus will be mingled with the New Jerusalem. Therefore, in the new heaven and new earth, there will be only two peoples. First, there will be the New Jerusalem, composed of the believers and the Jews, God’ss ons as the royal family to rule over the nations and as the priests to serve God forever. Second, there will be the nations, who will not be regenerated but only restored and who will live on the earth outside the New Jerusalem to be God’sp eople (Rev. 21:3
