旧约 - 耶利米书(Jeremiah)第11章

The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
And say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Cursed be the man that obeyeth not the words of this covenant,
Which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God:
That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. Then answered I, and said, So be it, O LORD.
Then the LORD said unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.
For I earnestly protested unto your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even unto this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice.
Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do: but they did them not.
And the LORD said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.
Then shall the cities of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense: but they shall not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal.
Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.
What hath my beloved to do in mine house, seeing she hath wrought lewdness with many, and the holy flesh is passed from thee? when thou doest evil, then thou rejoicest.
The LORD called thy name, A green olive tree, fair, and of goodly fruit: with the noise of a great tumult he hath kindled fire upon it, and the branches of it are broken.
For the LORD of hosts, that planted thee, hath pronounced evil against thee, for the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done against themselves to provoke me to anger in offering incense unto Baal.
And the LORD hath given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then thou shewedst me their doings.
But I was like a lamb or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, saying, Let us destroy the tree with the fruit thereof, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.
But, O LORD of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I revealed my cause.
Therefore thus saith the LORD of the men of Anathoth, that seek thy life, saying, Prophesy not in the name of the LORD, that thou die not by our hand:
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will punish them: the young men shall die by the sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by famine:
And there shall be no remnant of them: for I will bring evil upon the men of Anathoth, even the year of their visitation.
耶利米书第十一章   第 11 章 

  耶 11-13 章 > 在责备、劝慰与警戒之中,为什么仍不会迷途知返?为什么? 

  11-13 章 这两章经文主要描写以色列人背约和耶利米对他们的责备。耶利米斥责犹大人在约西亚王时经过短暂的灵命复兴后又再去拜偶像。这些话几乎使他丧命于同胞手中。耶利米感到痛苦忧伤,不禁反覆思索何以恶人平步青云,而义人却命途多舛。最后他不再追问下去,以变坏的腰带和盛满酒的酒坛比喻神施行审判作为结束(参 13:1-11 注释)。 

  耶 11:14> 祷告难道也有受阻拦的时刻?有的,就在…… 

  11:14 神吩咐耶利米不要为百姓祈祷,并说就算百姓向祂呼求,祂也不会垂听。乍看起来,这个命令实在令人震惊。然而,时候到了,神就要显出祂的公义,审判罪恶。犯罪的必吃苦果,受到应有的惩罚。假如百姓仍然沉溺罪中,毫不悔改,到审判的时候,不论是他们自己的祈祷,还是耶利米的代求,神都不会再留情面了。他们惟一的盼望就是悔改:哀恸痛悔、离开罪恶、归向耶和华。如果我们尚未完全献身与神,不断祈求祂帮助又有什么用呢?惟有我们完全献身与神、不再偏行自己犯罪的道路,神的祝福才沛然降临我们身上。 

  耶 11:18-23> 在连最亲密的人也会加害于己的时候,还有什么可以做? 

  11:18-23 耶利米万想不到自己的同乡竟然要合谋害死他。他们禁止耶利米宣讲那些信息,主要有下列几个原因:( 1 )经济方面──他斥责百姓拜偶像,会打击制造偶像者的生意。( 2 )宗教方面──毁灭忧郁的信息令百姓意志消沉和内疚沮丧。( 3 )政治方面──他公然斥责领袖假冒为善的卑劣手段。( 4 )个人方面──百姓十分憎恶耶利米揭发他们的错误。耶利米只有两条路可以选择:一是逃亡,二是求告神。他选择求告神,神就答允他。我们为忠于神的缘故而招致大难,同样也只有两条路可以选择:惊惶而逃或是投靠神。逃避乃是妥协,求神帮助才能继续坚强振作,放胆为祂作见证。──《灵修版圣经注释》
