旧约 - 历代记下(2 Chronicles)第33章

Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years.
He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, following the detestable practices of the nations the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
He rebuilt the high places his father Hezekiah had demolished; he also erected altars to the Baals and made Asherah poles. He bowed down to all the starry hosts and worshiped them.
He built altars in the temple of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, "My Name will remain in Jerusalem forever."
In both courts of the temple of the LORD, he built altars to all the starry hosts.
He sacrificed his sons in the fire in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, practiced sorcery, divination and witchcraft, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the eyes of the LORD, provoking him to anger.
He took the carved image he had made and put it in God's temple, of which God had said to David and to his son Solomon, "In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my Name forever.
I will not again make the feet of the Israelites leave the land I assigned to your forefathers, if only they will be careful to do everything I commanded them concerning all the laws, decrees and ordinances given through Moses."
But Manasseh led Judah and the people of Jerusalem astray, so that they did more evil than the nations the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
The LORD spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they paid no attention.
So the LORD brought against them the army commanders of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh prisoner, put a hook in his nose, bound him with bronze shackles and took him to Babylon.
In his distress he sought the favor of the LORD his God and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
And when he prayed to him, the LORD was moved by his entreaty and listened to his plea; so he brought him back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD is God.
Afterward he rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David, west of the Gihon spring in the valley, as far as the entrance of the Fish Gate and encircling the hill of Ophel; he also made it much higher. He stationed military commanders in all the fortified cities in Judah.
He got rid of the foreign gods and removed the image from the temple of the LORD, as well as all the altars he had built on the temple hill and in Jerusalem; and he threw them out of the city.
Then he restored the altar of the LORD and sacrificed fellowship offerings and thank offerings on it, and told Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
The people, however, continued to sacrifice at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
The other events of Manasseh's reign, including his prayer to his God and the words the seers spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, are written in the annals of the kings of Israel.
His prayer and how God was moved by his entreaty, as well as all his sins and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself--all are written in the records of the seers.
Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried in his palace. And Amon his son succeeded him as king.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years.
He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon worshiped and offered sacrifices to all the idols Manasseh had made.
But unlike his father Manasseh, he did not humble himself before the LORD; Amon increased his guilt.
Amon's officials conspired against him and assassinated him in his palace.
Then the people of the land killed all who had plotted against King Amon, and they made Josiah his son king in his place.

  代下 33:6> “观兆”与“用法术”所指为何? 

  33:6 观兆(可译为“行法术的”)是使用从邪灵所得到的力量。用法术(译者注:也可译作“占卜”),是藉着兆头预测未来。 

  代下 33:11> 一国之君被视为罪犯,是因为他违背了神的心意,故此要谨慎神的警戒与提醒…… 

  33:11 在公元前 652 和 648 年,巴比伦城背叛亚述,叛乱虽然被平定,但是亚述可能怀疑玛拿西支持叛乱,所以将玛拿西带到巴比伦,而不带到亚述的首都尼尼微去受审。 

  代下 33:12-13> 邪恶如玛拿西都悔悟归向神。我现在还不寻求神的赦免与拯救吗? 

  33:12-13 昏君的名单之中,玛拿西算是恶人之最。他一生尽行恶事,包括敬拜偶像、以他的儿女为祭献给偶像、污秽圣殿。不过,他后来认识了自己的罪,呼求神赦免,神也垂听了他的呼求。神既然能赦免玛拿西,祂就必能赦免任何人。你是否有不堪负荷的犯罪的内疚?你是否怀疑自己的所作所为能否得赦?你尽可以放心──一生一世都可以相信,人人都能得到神的赦罪之恩。 %5 

  代下 33:17> 要提防在敬拜中渗入了迷信色彩;我是否也常以中国人传统拜神的态度来敬拜真神? 

  33:17 犹大人虽然单单敬拜神,却用错误的方法。神曾经吩咐他们要在祂所指定的地方献祭(参申 12:13-14 ),好使他们不会改变敬拜的方式,保护他们免受异教习俗的危险影响。可惜,犹大人仍继续使用邱坛向神献祭,他们不知道:( 1 )所采用的习俗是神所反对的;( 2 )献祭的地方是神的律法所禁止的。他们将异教的信仰与敬拜神相混合,将异教的神只和独一的神混在一起,使人混淆不清。我们必须小心,不要让世俗的影响弄歪了我们敬拜的正道。──《灵修版圣经注释》
