旧约 - 以西结书(Ezekiel)第40章

In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.
In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south.
And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long by the cubit and an hand breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.
Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the east, and went up the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad; and the other threshold of the gate, which was one reed broad.
And every little chamber was one reed long, and one reed broad; and between the little chambers were five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate within was one reed.
He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.
Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.
And the little chambers of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.
And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.
The space also before the little chambers was one cubit on this side, and the space was one cubit on that side: and the little chambers were six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
He measured then the gate from the roof of one little chamber to the roof of another: the breadth was five and twenty cubits, door against door.
He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto the post of the court round about the gate.
And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.
And there were narrow windows to the little chambers, and to their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the arches: and windows were round about inward: and upon each post were palm trees.
Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty chambers were upon the pavement.
And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates was the lower pavement.
Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits eastward and northward.
And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.
And the little chambers thereof were three on this side and three on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were after the measure of the first gate: the length thereof was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
And their windows, and their arches, and their palm trees, were after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and they went up unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.
And the gate of the inner court was over against the gate toward the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to gate an hundred cubits.
After that he brought me toward the south, and behold a gate toward the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the arches thereof according to these measures.
And there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
And there were seven steps to go up to it, and the arches thereof were before them: and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, upon the posts thereof.
And there was a gate in the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits.
And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;
And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, according to these measures: and there were windows in it and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.
And the arches thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it had eight steps.
And he brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.
And the little chambers thereof, and the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, were according to these measures: and there were windows therein and in the arches thereof round about: it was fifty cubits long, and five and twenty cubits broad.
And the arches thereof were toward the outward court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps.
And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to these measures;
The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and the arches thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth five and twenty cubits.
And the posts thereof were toward the utter court; and palm trees were upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up to it had eight steps.
And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt offering.
And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering.
And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side, which was at the porch of the gate, were two tables.
Four tables were on this side, and four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew their sacrifices.
And the four tables were of hewn stone for the burnt offering, of a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and one cubit high: whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice.
And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.
And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and their prospect was toward the south: one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.
And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.
And the chamber whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to minister unto him.
So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the house.
And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.
The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; and he brought me by the steps whereby they went up to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
以西结书第四十章   第 40 章 

  结 40 章 > 以西结描述的那座城建成了吗? 

  40 章 从建造圣殿的异象中,我们看到了被掳的百姓归国的光景──神将其百姓召回来的光景。圣殿于公元前 520-515 年重新建成(参拉 5-6 章),但不符合以西结的蓝图(参该 2:3 ;亚 4:10 )。对于这个圣殿异象,可分为四个主要方面解释:( 1 )这是所罗巴伯应于公元前 520-515 年建造的殿,且也是以西结心目中的蓝图。但由于百姓对神不顺服( 43:2-10 ),所以从未得以实现。( 2 )基督掌权的千禧年中的圣殿。( 3 )是今天基督教会对神真正敬拜的象征。( 4 )这象征着神的同在和祝福充满了大地,神在未来掌权和永远掌权。 

  无论这座殿是象征性的还是字义上的,有一点很清楚:这是神最终完美国度的异象。以西结时代的人刚刚看到他们的国家和圣殿被毁灭,而且在短期内毫无重建的希望。这个信息给了他们希望,这希望更多来自于异象中的细节:以西结所看到的异象从神而来,所以在将来必定实现。 

  结 40 章 > 圣城的异象代表的是什么?理由是什么? 

  40 章 有一种观念认为,以西结看见的殿并不是字面意义上的未来建筑。其理由是其中提到了献祭( 40:38-43 )。如果在末日里还要重设献祭,那基督的献祭就不是最后的了。新约清楚地指出,基督向罪而死,只有一次(参罗 6:10 ;来 9:12 ; 10:10 , 18 )。我们的罪已经被除去,不需要再献祭了。 

  在以西结时代,百姓所知道的惟一敬拜的方式,是从出埃及记到申命记中描述的那种献祭和礼仪。以西结只好用百姓能理解的术语来解释新的敬拜次序。下面的九个章节告诉我们,圣殿如何成为万物的焦点,并且说明当生命都以它为中心的时候,那才是同神的理想关系。 

  结 40 章 > 这个异象好像只是些数字而已──再仔细看呢? 

  40 章 以西结要用百姓明白的语言和形像来解释神的居所。神要他们看见神为以信心生活的人所设计的伟大荣耀。这种圣殿从未造过,它只是个异象。这异象的目的在于,它为神的百姓展现出神的美好计划:敬拜的中心,主的同在,从神而来的祝福,敬拜的次序和义务。但我们不要只看到异象的细节而弄不清其重点。这重点是:终有一天一切对神忠心的人都将同神共享永生。愿这庄严的异象使我们得到升华,并且教导我们如何敬拜和事奉神。 

  结 40:1-43:27> 神为何要详细给出这些尺寸?用意何在? 

  40:1-43:27 以西结于公元前 573 年得到了这个异象。第 40 至 43 章交代了圣殿的尺寸,然后描绘了里面如何充满神的荣耀。由于以西结是个祭司,所以他很熟悉所罗门殿中的礼仪和陈设。在启示录 11 章 1 至 2 节中“衡量”的命令,定出了神为特殊用途而划出的区域。当我们读到所有这些细节的时候,请记住神在掌管着我们的敬拜,和忠心的百姓归来的时间表。 %5 

  结 40:3-4> 这个人是谁? 

  40:3-4 也许这不是一个人,也许这是 9 章 1 至 11 节中的天使,或者是位像他的人。有人说,那也许是基督,因为他跟以西结说话时,就像神一样称以西结为“人子”。 

  结 40:5> 经文中的长度是怎样换算的? 

  40:5 一长肘约为 50 公分,一普通肘约为 46 公分。 

  结 40:38-39> 洗燔祭牲也是有律法规定的…… 

  40:38-39 洗燔祭牲是根据利未记 1 章 6 至 9 节中设立的预备祭牲的标准来进行的。清洗的程序是向神献上蒙悦纳的祭物的一部分。──《灵修版圣经注释》
