旧约 - 历代记上（1 Chronicles）第26章

Concerning the divisions of the porters: Of the Korhites was Meshelemiah the son of Kore, of the sons of Asaph.

And the sons of Meshelemiah were, Zechariah the firstborn, Jediael the second, Zebadiah the third, Jathniel the fourth,

Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, Elioenai the seventh.

Moreover the sons of Obededom were, Shemaiah the firstborn, Jehozabad the second, Joah the third, and Sacar the fourth, and Nethaneel the fifth,

Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peulthai the eighth: for God blessed him.

Also unto Shemaiah his son were sons born, that ruled throughout the house of their father: for they were mighty men of valour.

The sons of Shemaiah; Othni, and Rephael, and Obed, Elzabad, whose brethren were strong men, Elihu, and Semachiah.

All these of the sons of Obededom: they and their sons and their brethren, able men for strength for the service, were threescore and two of Obededom.

And Meshelemiah had sons and brethren, strong men, eighteen.

Also Hosah, of the children of Merari, had sons; Simri the chief, (for though he was not the firstborn, yet his father made him the chief;)

Hilkiah the second, Tebaliah the third, Zechariah the fourth: all the sons and brethren of Hosah were thirteen.

Among these were the divisions of the porters, even among the chief men, having wards one against another, to minister in the house of the LORD.

And they cast lots, as well the small as the great, according to the house of their fathers, for every gate.

And the lot eastward fell to Shelemiah. Then for Zechariah his son, a wise counsellor, they cast lots; and his lot came out northward.

To Obededom southward; and to his sons the house of Asuppim.

To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came forth westward, with the gate Shallecheth, by the causeway of the going up, ward against ward.

Eastward were six Levites, northward four a day, southward four a day, and toward Asuppim two and two.

At Parbar westward, four at the causeway, and two at Parbar.

These are the divisions of the porters among the sons of Kore, and among the sons of Merari.

And of the Levites, Ahijah was over the treasures of the house of God, and over the treasures of the dedicated things.

As concerning the sons of Laadan; the sons of the Gershonite Laadan, chief fathers, even of Laadan the Gershonite, were Jehieli.

The sons of Jehieli; Zetham, and Joel his brother, which were over the treasures of the house of the LORD.

Of the Amramites, and the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites:

And Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was ruler of the treasures.

And his brethren by Eliezer; Rehabiah his son, and Jeshaiah his son, and Joram his son, and Zichri his son, and Shelomith his son.

Which Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasures of the dedicated things, which David the king, and the chief fathers, the captains over thousands and hundreds, and the captains of the host, had dedicated.

Out of the spoils won in battles did they dedicate to maintain the house of the LORD.

And all that Samuel the seer, and Saul the son of Kish, and Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah, had dedicated; and whosoever had dedicated any thing, it was under the hand of Shelomith, and of his brethren.

Of the Izharites, Chenaniah and his sons were for the outward business over Israel, for officers and judges.

And of the Hebronites, Hashabiah and his brethren, men of valour, a thousand and seven hundred, were officers among them of Israel on this side Jordan westward in all the business of the LORD, and in the service of the king.

Among the Hebronites was Jerijah the chief, even among the Hebronites, according to the generations of his fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought for, and there were found among them mighty men of valour at Jazer of Gilead.

And his brethren, men of valour, were two thousand and seven hundred chief fathers, whom king David made rulers over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to God, and affairs of the king.

历代志上第廿六章　　第 26 章　

　　代上 26:1> 在教会中经常要做些毫不起眼的事情，我觉得……　

　　26:1　圣殿守门的利未人共有四千名（ 23:4-5 ），他们也做其他工作。他们的任务包括：（ 1 ）查看每天使用的器物，确保还原。（ 2 ）储存、供应、安排给祭司与献祭者的食物。（ 3 ）看管器物。（ 4 ）调和每天所烧之香。（ 5 ）数算人民所献上的礼物。（关于圣殿守门的详情，参 9:17-18 的注释）　

　　代上 26:5> 在经济有困难的家庭，如何看出儿女是神赐的福？　

　　26:5　神赐福给俄别以东。从人类的整个历史中可以看到，子女的地位常有不同，他们有的被人极其看重，有的却被虐待与欺骗。但是圣经的看法是一贯不变的──儿女是神所赐的福分，是耶和华所赐的产业。神从来没有说儿女是父母的重担（参诗 127:3-5 ；可 10:13-15 ）。　

　　代上 26:27> 你对神的奉献是出于乐意，还是不得已的呢？　

　　26:27　战利品属于得胜的军队自是理所当然的，但是有些军人将战时所夺的财物其中一部分分别为圣、送入圣殿，以表示他们对神全心全意的奉献。我们应当效法这班战士，诚心献上自己所能献的，而不是出于规定才献上。你要对神作喜乐和爱的回应。──《灵修版圣经注释》　

历代志上　　注释　　　　　　

　　二十六 1-19 守门的人　

　　这一组名单基本上是 1 至 3 节、 9 至 11 节和 19 节组成。利未的三大家族中（六 1 ），此处只出现了哥辖的子孙（ 1 节，根据六 22 ，可拉是哥辖的子孙）和米拉利的子孙（ 10 节）；第 1 节的亚萨并非二十五章 1 节那着名的亚萨，因后者是革顺的子孙（六 39-43 ）；他是九章 19 节的以比雅撒。可能有一个革顺族守门者的名单，但却找到俄别以东的家族（ 4-8 节）。作者没有为这个突出的人物提供一个利未家谱，但若每一次提到俄别以东，所指的都是同一人的话，在十五章 18 节可见他是个利未人，他有资格列入这名单内，并领受第 5 节和十三章 14 节那特别的祝福（并参看十五 17-25 之注释）。　

　　俄别以东的子孙可能在戴维时代（即建殿之前多年）已是作守门的（十五 17-18 ），但在建殿后，即最少是所罗门时代，他的名字也在这里出现（ 15 节）；九章 17 至 32 节（给我们详述了守门者实际的职务），更在 4 个世纪后圣殿重建时，列出相同的名字。这都是由于作者把各时代的数据重迭起来，为神子民的生活和敬拜构造一幅有深度的图画。其中一个守门者有精明之谋士的美誉（ 14 节），作者又提及王宫及其它守门者在值班（ 18 节「游廊」的意义不得而知），暗示了无论作者如何把各部分巧妙地拼合在一起，不同部分仍是真实和准确的。　

　　二十六 20 至二十七 34 各部之长官　

　　二十三章 4 至 5 节中 4 个利未人之部分，是按着人数来列出的。详细名单的次序却有所不同，名单是从中央往外逐步列出，即圣所中的人员，然后是乐师、守门的人，现在最后列出文武百官，有些负责圣殿外的事务（二十六 29 ）；他们包括全以色列的官吏，有负责俗务的，也有负责宗教事宜的（二十六 30 、 32 ）。第二十七章的名单更是在利未支派以外。　

　　二十六章 20 至 32 节谈及掌管「府库」，或贮物室的官员（ 20 节；跟二十七 25 的用字相同）。有些似乎是圣所用品的管理者（二十六 21-22 ），像在九章 28 至 32 节所记；有些则负责管理其它财物，如战时的掠物（二十六 24-28 ）。其余的人的职责是司法（二十六 29 ）或财政（若二十六 30 、 32 暗示有宗教和世俗的税项）。这图画也是从不同时代剪裁而成的：二十六章 30 至 32 节描述的辽阔土地，是属于早期的疆界；利未人参与行政则是后期的事（代下十九 8-11 ）。当以色列历史被看为一个整体，我们才能掌握个中精髓，所以只有把所有重要人物（甚至是扫罗，二十六 28 ）聚合起来，我们才能掌握不同的人物和角色。　

　　二十六章 29 至 32 节离开了宗教进入世俗的范畴，也论及不属利未的事情──一个军队的名单（二十七 1-15 ）。这也是最完整时的以色列。众军长是历史中最出色的领袖楷模，他们就是十一章 10 至 31 节戴维的 12 位勇士，而其中的数字可能是理想中的军力── 12 班，各有 24 「千人」，叫人想起 24 班祭司，特别是 24 班各有 12 人的乐师（二十四 7-18 ，二十五 6-31 ）。因此，虽然亚撒黑在戴维成为全以色列的王以前已逝世，但名字也在一班之首（二十七 7 ；撒下二 18-23 ），而这军队的组织是较似所罗门时代的风格。　

　　二十七章 16 至 24 节列出之官长，可能负责二十七章 23 至 24 节的人口普查。此处提到 12 个「支派」（若玛拿西算是一个支派），虽然这是十分奇怪的名单；只能猜测为何迦得和亚设被删去，而亚伦则被加上。这次数点民数，可能就是二十一章 1 至 8 节所记述那一次；那里的记载，不一定如一些人的看法，是跟这记载互相冲突的。　

　　二十七章 25 至 31 节是另一组 12 人的名单，这次所记的，是朝中的大臣──文官的首领。历代志作者又再乐于记下参与事奉以色列之神的非以色列人（阿比勒和雅悉，二十七 30-31 ）。　

　　最后是戴维的内阁（二十七 32-34 ），包括一些身分难辨的人，好像他的「叔叔」乔纳单，和其它在别处已熟悉的人（十八 14-17 ；撒下十五至十七章）。这些名单中着名的人物和巧妙的整理，再次告诉我们，作者的用意是展示一幅神子民的理想图画。尤其是第二十三至二十七章，所显出的是「戴维」典型的耶路撒冷圣殿和以色列王国的组织，这正是神所拣选的王理应达至的光景，也是日后传给其后各代的组织架构。
