旧约 - 以西结书(Ezekiel)第24章

In the ninth year, in the tenth month on the tenth day, the word of the LORD came to me:
"Son of man, record this date, this very date, because the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day.
Tell this rebellious house a parable and say to them: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: "'Put on the cooking pot; put it on and pour water into it.
Put into it the pieces of meat, all the choice pieces--the leg and the shoulder. Fill it with the best of these bones;
take the pick of the flock. Pile wood beneath it for the bones; bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.
"'For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: "'Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now encrusted, whose deposit will not go away! Empty it piece by piece without casting lots for them.
"'For the blood she shed is in her midst: She poured it on the bare rock; she did not pour it on the ground, where the dust would cover it.
To stir up wrath and take revenge I put her blood on the bare rock, so that it would not be covered.
"'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: "'Woe to the city of bloodshed! I, too, will pile the wood high.
So heap on the wood and kindle the fire. Cook the meat well, mixing in the spices; and let the bones be charred.
Then set the empty pot on the coals till it becomes hot and its copper glows so its impurities may be melted and its deposit burned away.
It has frustrated all efforts; its heavy deposit has not been removed, not even by fire.
"'Now your impurity is lewdness. Because I tried to cleanse you but you would not be cleansed from your impurity, you will not be clean again until my wrath against you has subsided.
"'I the LORD have spoken. The time has come for me to act. I will not hold back; I will not have pity, nor will I relent. You will be judged according to your conduct and your actions, declares the Sovereign LORD.'"
The word of the LORD came to me:
"Son of man, with one blow I am about to take away from you the delight of your eyes. Yet do not lament or weep or shed any tears.
Groan quietly; do not mourn for the dead. Keep your turban fastened and your sandals on your feet; do not cover the lower part of your face or eat the customary food of mourners."
So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. The next morning I did as I had been commanded.
Then the people asked me, "Won't you tell us what these things have to do with us?"
So I said to them, "The word of the LORD came to me:
Say to the house of Israel, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am about to desecrate my sanctuary--the stronghold in which you take pride, the delight of your eyes, the object of your affection. The sons and daughters you left behind will fall by the sword.
And you will do as I have done. You will not cover the lower part of your face or eat the customary food of mourners.
You will keep your turbans on your heads and your sandals on your feet. You will not mourn or weep but will waste away because of your sins and groan among yourselves.
Ezekiel will be a sign to you; you will do just as he has done. When this happens, you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD.'
"And you, son of man, on the day I take away their stronghold, their joy and glory, the delight of their eyes, their heart's desire, and their sons and daughters as well--
on that day a fugitive will come to tell you the news.
At that time your mouth will be opened; you will speak with him and will no longer be silent. So you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the LORD."
以西结书第廿四章   第 24 章 

  结 24:1-14> 有时人以为最安全的地方,恰恰是最危险的…… 

  24:1-14 以西结于公元前 588 年发出这一信息,比前述最早的一个信息晚了三年( 20:1-2 )。仍在犹大的百姓认为自己是“被选中的肉”,因为在公元前 597 年巴比伦最后一次攻击该地的时候他们没有被掳走。以西结以前曾用过这样的图解( 11 章),说如果人们认为“在自己的锅里头”最安全保险,那么这个“锅”实际上就是他们被毁灭的地方。就在以西结向被掳到巴比伦的人传讲这段信息的同一天,巴比伦向耶路撒冷进攻( 24:2 ),并开始了历时两年的围城,最后毁灭了这座城。神的审判一到是毫不留情的。 

  结 24:6-13> 我是否像一口长锈的锅?我怎样才能得洁净? 

  24:6-13 耶路撒冷像一个盛满罪恶的锅,已无法洁净。神要洁净那些住在耶路撒冷的人,祂今天也要洁净我们。有时候神要用艰难困苦来炼净我们。当我们面对艰难的时候,要让我们生命中的罪在煎熬我们的火中烧掉。把我们的问题看成是我们信心成长的机会吧。当这些机会来到的时候,生活中不必要的优先考虑和转移就被除去了。我们可以重新省察自己的生活,这样我们的所作所为才真正算数。 

  结 24:15-18> 亲人死去却不可悲哀哭泣,这很难做到啊…… 

  24:15-18 神告诉以西结,他的妻子要死去,但他不可为她悲伤。就像何西阿接受吩咐去同一位不忠的妇女结婚一样(参何 1:2-3 ),以西结也顺服了神。这两件不寻常的事都是象征性的行动,描述了神同百姓的关系。顺服神的代价很高,但若不顺服神便失去了永生,这比失去伴侣又不能哭泣更痛苦。以西结总是全心全意地顺服神。我们也应该这样做。我们可以从学做神吩咐我们的事开始,即使是要做我们不想做的事情。我们愿意不愿意像以西结那样来事奉主呢? 

  结 24:20-24> 神的安排总是有意义的,即使我们不理解,也要相信…… 

  24:20-24 不允许以西结为他死去的妻子表示悲伤,是为了向被掳的人们说明,他们不要为耶路撒冷的被毁而悲伤。任何个人的悲哀都会很快地被国家的悲哀──耶路撒冷被毁的恐怖所遮盖。那里的人都会因自己的罪被毁灭,并引起该城的毁灭。 

  结 24:27> 以西结的哑口与众不同,那是神在控制── 

  24:27 有些时候神不许以西结说话,除非神有信息让他传递给百姓( 3:25-27 )。对以西结的这一限制在耶路撒冷被毁不久就解除了。以西结对犹大和耶路撒冷的预言全部实现了( 33:21-22 )。──《灵修版圣经注释》
