旧约 - 历代记上(1 Chronicles)第14章

Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, along with cedar logs, stonemasons and carpenters to build a palace for him.
And David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and that his kingdom had been highly exalted for the sake of his people Israel.
In Jerusalem David took more wives and became the father of more sons and daughters.
These are the names of the children born to him there: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
Elishama, Beeliada and Eliphelet.
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, they went up in full force to search for him, but David heard about it and went out to meet them.
Now the Philistines had come and raided the Valley of Rephaim;
so David inquired of God: "Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?" The LORD answered him, "Go, I will hand them over to you."
So David and his men went up to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He said, "As waters break out, God has broken out against my enemies by my hand." So that place was called Baal Perazim.
The Philistines had abandoned their gods there, and David gave orders to burn them in the fire.
Once more the Philistines raided the valley;
so David inquired of God again, and God answered him, "Do not go straight up, but circle around them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move out to battle, because that will mean God has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army."
So David did as God commanded him, and they struck down the Philistine army, all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
So David's fame spread throughout every land, and the LORD made all the nations fear him.
历代志上第十四章   第 14 章 

  代上 14:1> 这位希兰王后来又帮助了── 

  14:1 日后推罗王希兰也将木材与建筑师傅送往以色列,协助所罗门建造圣殿(参代下 2 章)。 

  代上 14:2> 若我有大卫的地位,我会有何感受? 

  14:2 神赐大卫尊荣和勋业(“使他的国兴旺”),不过,并非仅为他个人的利益。大卫认识到神使他的国强盛事出有因──一切全为祂的子民!我们常常以为自己的地位与财富,全是自己努力而来的。但是我们必须切记,是神使我们成为这样的人,并赐给我们一切,为要使我们扶助别人、赒济贫穷。 

  代上 14:3> 大卫所做的只是当时的惯例,没有什么不妥?真的没有问题? 

  14:3 立三宫六院是昔日中东许多国家君王的惯例,但并不符合神一夫一妻制的标准(参创 2:24 )。大卫的多妻,虽增加他的权力和影响力,却也使他的家宅不和,屡生嫉妒纷争,甚至有凶杀之事(参撒下 12 章附表列出的多妻的恶果)。 

  代上 14:8-16> 14:8-16 在撒母耳记下 5 章,有这场战役的地图。 

  代上 14:10> 我在每件事情上以什么心态求问神? 

  14:10 大卫在出征之前,先求问神,求祂同在并引导。我们常常等到事情一团糟的时候才求问神,却为时晚矣。你是否到计穷力竭之时才求问神?你应当首先求问祂,这样就可以像大卫一样,得到意想不到的帮助,避去大灾难。 

  代上 14:12> 我也曾立下决心除去心中的偶像…… 

  14:12 大卫迅速果断地除灭偶像,有助全国的统一,使人民专心一意地敬拜独一的真神。他顺服律法的吩咐:“你们却要这样待他们:拆毁他们的祭坛,打碎他们的柱像,砍下他们的木偶,用火焚烧他们雕刻的偶像”(申 7:5 )。他的继任人之中,鲜有完全除灭偶像的,因此导致以色列民众道德的极度衰败。 

  代上 14:12> 我有什么神不喜悦的行为仍未完全除掉呢? 

  14:12 兵士常喜欢从战争之中留些战利品作为纪念(撒下 5:21 说,跟随大卫之人拿去非利士人所弃的偶像),所以大卫吩咐将偶像统统烧毁。对于罪应有的惟一反应,就是与它一刀两断、完全隔绝。你不能一方面信从神,同时又保留部分的旧生活,因为如此你的思想行动必日渐远离神。凡在你生活之中占据神当有地位的,一概要除去,好使你一心一意地跟从祂。──《灵修版圣经注释》
