旧约 - 创世记(Genesis)第28章

So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him and commanded him: "Do not marry a Canaanite woman.
Go at once to Paddan Aram, to the house of your mother's father Bethuel. Take a wife for yourself there, from among the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.
May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and increase your numbers until you become a community of peoples.
May he give you and your descendants the blessing given to Abraham, so that you may take possession of the land where you now live as an alien, the land God gave to Abraham."
Then Isaac sent Jacob on his way, and he went to Paddan Aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed Jacob and had sent him to Paddan Aram to take a wife from there, and that when he blessed him he commanded him, "Do not marry a Canaanite woman,"
and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and had gone to Paddan Aram.
Esau then realized how displeasing the Canaanite women were to his father Isaac;
so he went to Ishmael and married Mahalath, the sister of Nebaioth and daughter of Ishmael son of Abraham, in addition to the wives he already had.
Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.
When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep.
He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
There above it stood the LORD, and he said: "I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying.
Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.
I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you."
When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he thought, "Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was not aware of it."
He was afraid and said, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven."
Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it.
He called that place Bethel, though the city used to be called Luz.
Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me and will watch over me on this journey I am taking and will give me food to eat and clothes to wear
so that I return safely to my father's house, then the LORD will be my God
and this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be God's house, and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth."
创世记第廿八章   第 28 章 

  创 28:9> 以扫娶妻只为讨父母欢心,其实要真正的讨父母欢心…… 

  28:9 以实玛利是亚伯拉罕和撒拉的使女夏甲所生的儿子,是以撒同父异母的哥哥( 16:1-4 , 15 )。以扫娶了两个异教女子为妻以后( 26:34 ),希望从以实玛利家中再娶一个女子,以讨父母的欢心。 

  雅各前往哈兰 

  创 28:10-15> 要如雅各一样,亲自与神建立关系──这我知道,只是我…… 

  28:10-15 雅各虽然可以得到神跟亚伯拉罕及以撒立约的应许,但只作亚伯拉罕的孙子是不够的,他必须亲自与神建立关系。神是没有孙子的!我们必须跟祂建立个人的关系。父母是基督徒,他们的儿女不能就此成为神的儿女,每一个人都要亲身体验自己的信仰。 

  创 28:19> 从敬拜神的中心,到拜偶像的中心…… 

  28:19 伯特利在耶路撒冷以北大约十六公里、别是巴以北大约一百公里处。就在别是巴,雅各离家逃亡。伯特利是亚伯拉罕进入迦南地后,最初向神献祭的地方,起初是敬拜神的一个重要中心,后来却变成拜偶像的中心。先知何西阿曾谴责那里的恶行。 

  创 28:20-22> 将前路交托给神?将前路交托给神! 

  28:20-22 雅各是否跟神讨价还价呢?他可能因为对敬拜和事奉神的事无知,而把神当作为一点赏钱而做工的仆人。但是雅各也可能不是跟神讨价还价,而是把自己的前途交托给神。实际上他可能对神说:“因为你赐福与我,所以我顺从你。”不管他是跟神讨价还价,还是把自己交托给神,神都赐福给他,并要他学一些艰难的功课。──《灵修版圣经注释》
