2Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment On The Haughty Nations
及列国的救恩(三) 耶和华对狂傲的列国所施屈辱的审判,以及神人基督的引进,带来以色列国的复兴
And The Ushering In Of The God-Man, Christ, Issuing In The Restoration Of The Nation Of Israel
3读经:以赛亚书2:7-22,4:2-6,2:2-5,撒迦利亚书8:20-23,何西阿书2:18。
3Scripture Reading: Isa. 2:7-22; 4:2-6; 2:2-5; Zech. 8:20-23; Hosea 2:18
4在本篇信息中,我们要说到以赛亚书中另外两个秘密和奥秘的点。这两点比前面信息中所说到的更高,乃与基督这位神人并以色列有关。我们要看见,耶和华屈辱的审判引进神人基督,并带来以色列国的复兴。基督的引进和以色列的复兴都来自耶和华对列国所施公义的审判。神越审判列国,基督就越被引进;基督越被引进,就越带来以色列的复兴。基督的引进和以色列的复兴,要产生千年国。至终,千年国要总结于神经纶终极的时代,就是新天新地。
4In this message we will cover two more of the secret and mysterious points in the book of Isaiah. These two points, which are much higher than the matters covered in the previous messages, are related to Christ as the God-man and to Israel. As we will see, Jehovah’s humiliating judgment ushers in the God-man, Christ, and issues in the restoration of the nation of Israel. Both the ushering in of Christ and the restoration of Israel come from Jehovah’s righteous judgment on the nations. The more God judges the nations, the more Christ is ushered in; and the more Christ is ushered in, the more the restoration of Israel issues out. The ushering in of Christ and the restoration of Israel will result in the millennial kingdom. Finally, the millennium will consummate in the ultimate age of God’secon o my, that is, in the new heaven and new earth
5我们对以赛亚书的领会若仅限于诸如我们的罪变白如雪的事上,(赛一18,)我们的领会就太低了。以赛亚书里最高的点乃是基督这神人的引进,带来以色列国的复兴,这复兴带进国度并总结于新天新地。
5If our understanding of Isaiah is limited to matters such as our sins becoming white as snow (1:18), our understanding will be too low. The highest point in the book of Isaiah is the ushering in of Christ as the God-man, issuing in the restoration of the nation of Israel, which brings in the kingdom and consummates in the new heaven and new earth
壹 、耶和华对狂傲的列国所施屈辱的审判
I. Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment On The Haughty Nations
6因为列国非常狂傲,所以耶和华必须藉著审判屈辱他们,使他们降低。
6Because the nations were so haughty, it was necessary for Jehovah to humiliate them, to bring them down, through judgment
一 、申言者的控诉
A. The Prophet’s Accusation
7在二章七至九节,我们看见以赛亚对狂傲之列国的控诉。以赛亚对列国不满,他把他们的案件带到天上的法庭,在耶和华面前控诉他们。
7In 2:7-9 we have Isaiah’s accusation against the haughty nations. Isaiah was displeased with the nations, and he brought their case to the heavenly court and accused them before Jehovah.
1 .他们的地满了金银,财宝也无穷
1. Their Land Being Full of Silver and Gold, and Their Treasures Being Limitless
8列国极其富有。(赛二7。)他们的地满了金银,财宝也无穷;他们的地满了马匹,车辆也无数。
8The nations were extremely rich (v. 7). Their land was full of silver and gold, and their treasures were limitless. Their land was also full of horses, and their chariots were limitless
2 .他们的地满了偶像
2. Their Land Being Full of Idols
9他们的地满了偶像;他们跪拜自己手所造的,就是自己指头所作的。(赛二8。)他们不仅富有钱财,更富有偶像。偶像总是与钱财并行的。今天属世的人也是这样。这样的人富有钱财时,他们也富有偶像。这就是为何钱财也称作『玛门。』(太六24,路十六9,11,13。)
9Their land was full of idols; they bowed down to the work of their hands, to that which their fingers had made (v. 8). They were rich not only in money but also in idols. Idols always go together with money. This is true of worldly people today. When such people are rich in money, they are also rich in idols. This is why money is called mammon (Matt. 6:24; Luke 16:9, 11, 13
10因为列国信靠他们的偶像,所以神审判他们,为要屈辱他们。因此,低贱人屈服,尊贵人降卑。(赛二9上。)
10Because the nations trusted in their idols, God judged them in order to humiliate them. Thus, the ordinary man was humbled, and the man of distinction was abased (Isa. 2:9a
3 .求耶和华不可饶恕他们
3. Asking Jehovah Not to Forgive Them
11以赛亚控告狂傲的列国时,求耶和华不可饶恕他们。(赛二9下)。
11In his accusation against the haughty nations, Isaiah asked Jehovah not to forgive them (v. 9b
二 、耶和华屈辱的审判
B. Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment
12在二章十至二十二节,我们看见耶和华对狂傲之列国所施屈辱的审判。
12In 2:10-22 we see Jehovah’s humiliating judgment on the haughty nations
131.耶和华屈辱之审判的对象:
131. The Object of Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment
a.人的高傲眼目,和人的骄傲
a. Man’s Haughty Look and Man’s Loftiness
14神审判的第一个对像乃是人的高傲眼目,和人的骄傲。(赛二11上,17上。)每一个人都有自己那一种的眼目。例如,银行家有银行家的眼目,教授有教授的眼目。有高傲眼目的人夸示他们的尊贵。骄傲的人也是一样。
14The first object of God’s judgment is man’s haughty look and man’s loftiness (vv. 11a, 17a). Each person has his own kind of look. For example, a banker has a banker’s look, and a professor has a professor’s look. Those with a haughty look make a display of their dignity. The same is true of those who are lofty
15b.一切骄傲狂妄的,和一切自高的
15b. Everything Proud and Lofty and Everything Lifted Up
16神审判一切骄傲狂妄的,和一切自高的。(赛二12。)我们若研读历史,就会看见历代以来,神审判了那些骄傲狂妄、并自高的。
16God judges whatever is lofty and proud and whatever is lifted up (v. 12). If we study history, we will see that throughout the ages God has judged those who are proud, lofty, and lifted up
c.利巴嫩一切高耸的香柏树,和巴珊的橡树
c. All the Lofty and Lifted-up Cedars of Lebanon and All the Oaks of Bashan
17神审判的对象也包括利巴嫩一切高耸的香柏树,和巴珊的橡树。(赛二13。)这些香柏树和橡树预表狂妄的人,就是自高的人。所有高举自己,变得狂妄的人,都要被神的审判『砍除。』
17The objects of Jehovah’s judgment also include all the lofty and lifted-up cedars of Lebanon and all the oaks of Bashan (v. 13). These cedars and oaks are types of lofty persons, those who lift themselves up. All those who uplift themselves and become lofty will be “chopped” through God’s judgment.
18d.一切高山和峻岭
18d. All the Lofty Mountains and All the Lifted-up Hills
19神也审判一切高山和峻岭。(赛二14。)在预像和预表上,这些山岭表征国家,列国,国度。
19God also judges all the lofty mountains and all the lifted- up hills (v. 14). In figure and in typology, these mountains and hills signify countries, nations, and kingdoms
e.一切高塔和坚固的城墙
e. Every High Tower and Every Fortified Wall
20十五节说到神审判一切高塔和坚固的城墙。这里高塔和坚固的城墙表征防卫和保护。
20Verse 15 speaks of God’s judgment one very high tower and every fortified wall. Here a high tower and a fortified wall signify defense and protection
f.他施的船只,并一切可喜悦的工艺品
f. All the Ships of Tarshish and All Their Pleasant Artifacts
21神的审判伸展到他施的船只,并一切可喜悦的工艺品。(赛二。)这里工艺品一辞指美丽、悦目的人工制成品。
21God’s judgment extends to all the ships of Tarshish and all their pleasant artifacts (v. 16). The word artifacts here refers to beautiful and pleasing 16 manufactured items.
g.偶像
g. The Idols
2218末了,神审判列国的偶像。十八节说,『偶像必全然消散。』
22Finally, God judges the idols of the nations. Verse says, “The idols will vanish completely.”
232.耶和华屈辱之审判的目的
232. The Purpose of Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment
a.显示耶和华的惊吓,和祂威严的荣光
a. To Show the Dread of Jehovah and the Splendor of His Majesty
24耶和华屈辱之审判的目的,首先是要显示耶和华的惊吓,和祂威严的荣光。(赛二10下,19下,21下。)在神的审判里,耶和华的惊吓展示了出来,叫我们敬畏祂。神的审判也展示出祂威严的荣光。在历史上,耶和华的惊吓和威严都藉著祂的审判显示了出来。
24The purpose of Jehovah’s humiliating judgment is, first, to show the dread of Jehovah and the splendor of His majesty (vv. 10b, 19b, 21b). In God’s judgment the dread of Jehovah is displayed so that we would fear Him. God’s judgment also exhibits the splendor of His majesty. Throughout history, both the dread and majesty of Jehovah have been shown in His judgment
25b.表白惟独耶和华要得著尊崇
25b. To Vindicate the Fact That Jehovah Alone Will Be Exalted
26耶和华屈辱审判的目的,也是要表白惟独耶和华要得著尊崇。(赛二11下,17下。)这点特别在启示录一书中可以看到。至终,耶和华这显示出祂惊吓和威严的审判,结果使耶和华独得尊崇。
26The purpose of Jehovah’s humiliating judgment is also to vindicate the fact that Jehovah alone will be exalted (vv. 11b, 17b). This is seen especially in the book of Revelation. Eventually, as the result of Jehovah’s judgment, in which His dread and majesty are shown, Jehovah alone will be exalted.
273.耶和华屈辱之审判的方式
273. The Way of Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment
28耶和华屈辱之审判的方式乃是使地震动。(赛二19下。)在祂的审判里,祂要摇动全地,使地震动。
28The way of Jehovah’s humiliating judgment is to make the earth tremble (v. 19b). In His judgment, He will shake the entire earth and cause it to tremble
294、耶和华屈辱之审判的结果
294. The Result of Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment
a.人必降卑并屈服
a. Men Being Abased and Humbled
30耶和华屈辱之审判的结果,人必降卑并屈服。(赛二11上,17上。)
30As the result of God’s judgment, men will be abased and humbled (vv. 11a, 17a
b.人必将他们的银偶像、金偶像,抛给田鼠和蝙蝠
b. Men Casting Their Idols of Silver and Idols of Gold to the Moles and to the Bats
31神审判进一步的结果,人必将他们的银偶像、金偶像,抛给田鼠和蝙蝠。(赛二20。)
31As a further result of God’s judgment, men will cast their idols of silver and idols of gold to the moles and to the bats (v. 20
32c.人必进入岩穴,藏在土中
32c. Men Entering into the Rock and Hiding in the Dust
33因著耶和华的审判,人必进入岩穴,藏在土中。(赛二10。)他们必进入石洞,进入土穴;又进入盘石洞中,并岩石穴里。(赛二19,21。)人作这些事,想要躲避耶和华的惊吓,和祂威严的荣光。他们不爱神,只因看见神是可畏并满了荣光的,就惧怕神。
33Because of Jehovah’s judgment, men will enter into the rock and hide in the dust (v. 10). They will also go into caves in the rocks and into holes in the dust, and they will go into the crevices of the rocks and into the clefts of the cliffs (vv. 19, 21). Men will do all these things in the attempt to hide from the dread of Jehovah and from the splendor of His majesty. They will not love God but, seeing only that God is fearful and full of splendor, they will be afraid of Him
345.耶和华屈辱之审判的功课
345. The Lesson of Jehovah’s Humiliating Judgment
35耶和华屈辱之审判的功课,乃是叫我们不再重看世人,因『他鼻孔里不过有气息。』(赛二22上。)我们不该信靠人。论到世人,以赛亚问说,『他可算得什么?』(赛二22下。)答案是:人是一无所有的。
35The lesson of Jehovah’s humiliating judgment is that we should stop regarding man “whose life breath is in his nostrils” (v. 22a). We should not put our trust in man. Concerning man, Isaiah asks, “For of what value is he considered to be?” (v. 22b). The answer is that man is nothing
贰 、神人基督的引进,
II. The Ushering In Of The God-Man, Christ
36带进以色列国的复兴
36Issuing In The Restoration Of The Nation Of Israel
37耶和华对狂傲之列国的审判,引进神人基督,(赛四2,5~6,)带进以色列国的复兴。(赛四3~6,二2~5。)
37God’s judgment on the haughty nations ushers in the God-man, Christ (4:2, 5-6), issuing in the restoration of the nation of Israel (4:3-6; 2:2-5
一 、神人基督的引进
A. The Ushering In of the God-man, Christ
1 .到那日
1. “In That Day”
38按照四章二节,基督的引进要在『那日,』就是以色列国要来之复兴的日子。
38According to 4:2, the ushering in of Christ will be “in that day,” that is, in the day of the coming restoration of the nation of Israel.
392.耶和华的苗和地的果子
392. The Shoot of Jehovah and the Fruit of the Earth
40四章二节里有两个显著的辞:耶和华的苗和地的果子。二者乃是一对,描述基督的两种性情:神圣的性情和属人的性情。耶和华的苗,指基督的神性,显示祂神圣的性情;地的果子,(路一42,)指基督的人性带著祂人的性情。作为耶和华的苗,基督是出于神的。作为地的果子,基督有土造的人的身体,是从地长出来的。
40In 4:2 there are two striking expressions: the Shoot of Jehovah and the Fruit of the earth. These two are one pair, illustrating Christ’st wo natures: the divine nature and the human nature. The Shoot of Jehovah refers to Christ’s deity, showing His divine nature, and the Fruit of the earth (Luke 1:42) refers to Christ’s humanity with His human nature. As the Shoot of Jehovah, Christ comes out of God. As the Fruit of the earth, Christ, having a human body made of dust, grows out of the earth
41以赛亚书揭示基督是神人,祂是耶和华的苗,带著华美尊荣,祂也是地的果子,带著夸耀光彩。在复兴的时候,对以色列逃脱的人,基督在祂的神性里必成为他们的华美尊荣,基督在祂的人性里必成为他们的夸耀光彩。
41In the book of Isaiah, Christ is unveiled as the God- man, the Shoot of Jehovah with beauty and glory and the Fruit of the earth with excellence and splendor. In the restoration, to those of Israel who have escaped, Christ in His deity will be beauty and glory, and in His humanity He will be excellence and splendor
42耶和华的苗,指明基督是耶和华神新的分枝,使三一神能将祂神性的自己分枝到人性里。这是为著耶和华神在宇宙中的扩增与开展。地的果子指明基督这耶和华神圣的苗,也成了出于地之肉体的人。这是为著三一神在人性里得著繁增与繁衍。祂这带著神圣生命的人,乃是种子,是一粒麦子,要藉著祂的死与复活产生许多子粒。(约十二24。)
42The Shoot of Jehovah denotes that Christ is a new development of Jehovah God for the Triune God to branch out Himself in His divinity into humanity. This is for Jehovah God’sin crease and spread in the universe. The Fruit of the earth denotes that Christ, as the divine Shoot of Jehovah, also becomes a man of flesh from the earth. This is for the Triune God to be multiplied and reproduced in humanity. As a man with the divine life, He is a seed, a grain of wheat, to produce many grains through His death and resurrection (John 12:24
43这样一位是耶和华的苗,也是地的果子的神人基督,乃是由神的审判引进的。祂特别是藉著神用以审判列国的战争引进的。战争越多,基督就越被引进。许多信徒能见证,他们是在战乱时得救的。
43Such a God-man, Christ as the Shoot of Jehovah and the Fruit of the earth, is ushered in by God’s judgment. In particular, He is ushered in by war, which is used by God to judge the nations. The more war there is, the more Christ will be ushered in. Many believers can testify that they were saved during a time of war
44藉著审判所引进的基督,带进以色列国的复兴。所以,神的审判至终产生神人基督同复兴。
44Out of the Christ who is ushered in by judgment issues the restoration of the nation of Israel. Therefore, God’s judgment eventually results in Christ, the God-man, with restoration
3 .罩盖和帐棚
3. A Canopy and a Tabernacle
45以赛亚四章五、六节另有两个显著的辞,向我们更多启示基督的神性和人性。这二辞来自头一组,是论到基督之启示的另一组。这一组的头一个辞是罩盖。神人基督也是罩盖,就是基督在祂神性里遮覆的荣耀,这罩盖遮覆锡安山全境以及所有的会众,也就是说,遮覆耶和华神在地上一切的权益。基督的荣耀要分两部分作罩盖遮覆这全境:日间部分,有烟云作避暑的遮荫;夜间部分,有火焰照亮的云驱除黑暗。
45In Isaiah 4:5 and 6 there are another two striking expressions, revealing to us more of Christ in His divinity and humanity. These two are another pair concerning the revelation of Christ which issues from the first pair. The first of this pair is a canopy. The God-man, Christ, will also be a canopy, which is the covering glory of Christ in His divinity that covers the entire region of Mount Zion and all its convocations, that is, all the interests of Jehovah God on the earth. The glory of Christ will cover this entire region as a canopy which will be of two sections: the section in the daytime will be a cloud of smoke for a shade from the heat, and the section at night will be a cloud of brightness of a fiery flame to keep the darkness away
46第二组的第二个辞是帐棚,白日成荫,可以避暑,并作避难所和藏身处,可以躲避狂风暴雨。这覆庇就如林后十二章九节所描绘的,乃是在祂人性里带著祂恩典的神人基督。这是基督作我们覆庇的保护和防卫。当我们在作我们帐棚的基督里时,就得著覆庇,不至因攻击、暑热、狂风、暴雨受害。
46The second of the second pair is a tabernacle which in the daytime will be a shade from the heat and will be a refuge and a cover (a hiding place that covers a person’s body) from storm and rain. This overshadowing tabernacle is the God-man, Christ, in His humanity with His grace, as illustrated in 2 Corinthians 12:9. This is Christ as our overshadowing protection and defense. When we are in Christ as our tabernacle, we will be overshadowed from the attacks of heat, storm, and rain
47二、带进以色列国的复兴
47B. Issuing in the Restoration of the Nation of Israel
1 .主要洗去锡安女子的污秽
1. The Lord Washing Away the Filth of the Daughters of Zion
48主要用审判的灵,和焚烧的灵,将锡安女子的污秽洗去,又将耶路撒冷中杀人的血除净。(赛四4。)那灵要来先审判,然后焚烧。
48The Lord will wash away the filth of the daughters of Zion and will cleanse away the bloodstains of Jerusalem from her midst by the judging Spirit and the burning Spirit (Isa. 4:4). The Spirit will come first to judge and then to burn
492.剩在锡安留在耶路撒冷的,必称为圣
492. He Who Is Left Over in Zion and Remains in Jerusalem
Being Called Holy
50剩在锡安留在耶路撒冷的,就是一切记名在耶路撒冷存活的,必称为圣。(赛四3。)这指明将有生命册记著所有的名。
50He who is left over in Zion and remains in Jerusalem will be called holy, everyone who has been written down in Jerusalem for life (v. 3). This indicates that there will be a book of life in which all the names are kept
513.耶和华在锡安及会众之上创造罩盖,又为祂的选民预备帐棚
513. Jehovah Creating a Canopy over Zion and Her Convocations and Providing His Chosen
People with a Tabernacle
52耶和华必创造日间的烟云,并夜间火焰的照亮,遮覆锡安山全境,且遮覆其所有的会众,(赛四5上,)使祂神圣的荣耀成为罩盖,遮覆祂在地上一切的权益;这就是说,神人基督要成为大罩盖,遮覆锡安山和以色列人。这与旷野中随著以色列人的云柱、火柱相似。不仅如此,在以色列的复兴里,神要为他们预备帐棚,白日成荫,可以避暑,并作避难所和藏身所,可以躲避狂风暴雨。
52Jehovah will create over the entire region of Mount Zion and over all her convocations a cloud of smoke by day and the brightness of a fiery flame by night (v. 5a) to be a canopy of His divine glory over all His interests on the earth, that is, the God-man, Christ, as the great canopy covering Zion and the children of Israel. This is similar to the pillar of smoke and the pillar of fire that went with the children of Israel in the wilderness. Furthermore, in the restoration of Israel, God will provide them with a tabernacle for a shade in the daytime from the heat and for a refuge and a cover from the storm and rain.
4 .基督作耶和华的苗是以色列的华美荣耀,祂作地的果子乃是以色列的夸耀光彩
4. Christ as the Shoot of Jehovah Being Beauty and Glory and as the Fruit of the Earth Being Excellence and Splendor to Israel
53在复兴的日子,神人基督这耶和华神圣的苗,要成为以色列的华美荣耀;而祂作地的属人果子(人的种子),乃要成为他们的夸耀光彩。(赛四2。)在要来的复兴里,包罗万有的基督在祂的神性里,要成为以色列人的华美荣耀;而在祂那彰显神性之华美和荣耀的人性里,祂要成为他们的夸耀光彩。那时,以色列人所显出并彰显的,就是包罗万有的基督自己。
53In the day of restoration, the God-man, Christ, as the divine Shoot of Jehovah, will be beauty and glory to Israel, and as the human seed of the earth will be excellence and splendor to them (4:2). In the coming restoration, the all-inclusive Christ will be the children of Israel’s beauty and glory in His divinity and their excellence and splendor in His humanity that expresses the beauty and glory of His divinity. Then what the children of Israel will manifest and express will be the all-inclusive Christ Himself
5 .耶和华殿的山,
5. The Mountain of the House of Jehovah
54必建立于诸山之顶,高举于众岭之间
54Being Established on the Top of the Mountains
and Being Lifted Up among the Hills
55以赛亚二章二节启示,耶和华殿的山(表征以色列国),必建立于诸山(表征外邦诸国)之顶,高举于众岭(表征外邦诸国)之间;万民(外邦人)必流归这山-以色列国。这指明以色列国要成为列国中领头的。
55Isaiah 2:2 reveals that the mountain (signifying the kingdom of Israel) of the house of Jehovah will be established on the top of the mountains (signifying the kingdoms of the nations) and will be lifted up among the hills (signifying the kingdoms of the nations); and all the nations (the Gentiles) will stream to the mountain—the kingdom of Israel. This indicates that the nation of Israel will be foremost among the nations
6 .教诲必出于锡安,耶和华的言语必出于耶路撒冷
6. From Zion Going Forth Instruction, and the Word of Jehovah from Jerusalem
56多国的民要来,说,『来罢,让我们登耶和华的山,往雅各神的殿去,好让祂将祂的道路教导我们,使我们行祂的路径;因为教诲必出于锡安,耶和华的言语必出于耶路撒冷。』(赛二3。)这指明全地都要受到以色列的教导。
56Many peoples will come and say, “Come and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah,/To the house of the God of Jacob,/That He may instruct us in His ways,/ And that we may walk in His paths./For from Zion will go forth instruction, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem” (2:3). This indicates that all the earth will be under the teaching of Israel
57按照撒迦利亚八章二十至二十三节,在以色列中间有祭司职任。这就是说,在千年国的时候,复兴的以色列要作祭司。实际上,在千年国的时候,祭司职任将有属地的部分和属天的部分。复兴的以色列国要成为属地部分的祭司;在基督里得胜的信徒要成为属天部分的祭司。藉著这祭司职任,所有的民要得著教导和训诲。
57According to Zechariah 8:20-23, among Israel there will be the priesthood. This means that during the millennium, the thousand - year kingdom, restored Israel will be priests. Actually, in the millennium the priesthood will have both an earthly part and a heavenly part. Those of the restored nation of Israel will be the priests in the earthly part, and the overcoming believers in Christ will be the priests in the heavenly part. By this priesthood all the peoples will be taught and instructed.
7 .耶和华必在列国之间施行审判,
7. Jehovah Judging between the Nations
58为多国的民下定决断
58and Deciding Matters concerning Many Peoples
59耶和华必在列国之间施行审判,为多国的民下定决断。(赛二4上。)那时,基督要成为地上惟一的管理者。
59Jehovah will judge between the nations and decide matters concerning many peoples (Isa. 2:4a). At that time, Christ will be the unique Ruler on earth
8 .列国和多国的民要把刀打成犁头,把矛打成镰刀
8. The Nations and Many Peoples Beating Their Swords into Plowshares and Their Spears into Pruning Hooks
60列国和多国的民要把刀打成犁头,把矛打成镰刀;这国不举刀攻击那国,他们也不再学习战事。(赛二4下,何二18。)不再有战争,不再有武器,也不再学习战事。
60The nations and many peoples will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, nor will they learn war anymore (v. 4b; Hosea 2:18). There will be no war, no weapons, and no learning of war
619.雅各家必行在耶和华的光中
619. The House of Jacob Walking in the Light of Jehovah
62至终,当以色列国得著复兴时,雅各家必行在耶和华的光中。(赛二5。)
62Finally, when the nation of Israel is restored, the house of Jacob will walk in the light of Jehovah (Isa. 2:5
63以赛亚在几段不同的预言里,说到基督的引进和以色列国的复兴;我们把这些段落摆在一起,就会清楚看见这卷书中关于这两件秘密、奥秘之事的启示。
63Isaiah speaks concerning the ushering in of Christ and the restoration of the nation of Israel in several different sections of his prophecy. When we put these sections together, we will have a clear view of the revelation in this book regarding these two secret and mysterious matters
