旧约 - 何西阿书(Hosea)第13章

When Ephraim spoke, men trembled; he was exalted in Israel. But he became guilty of Baal worship and died.
Now they sin more and more; they make idols for themselves from their silver, cleverly fashioned images, all of them the work of craftsmen. It is said of these people, "They offer human sacrifice and kiss the calf-idols."
Therefore they will be like the morning mist, like the early dew that disappears, like chaff swirling from a threshing floor, like smoke escaping through a window.
"But I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt. You shall acknowledge no God but me, no Savior except me.
I cared for you in the desert, in the land of burning heat.
When I fed them, they were satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; then they forgot me.
So I will come upon them like a lion, like a leopard I will lurk by the path.
Like a bear robbed of her cubs, I will attack them and rip them open. Like a lion I will devour them; a wild animal will tear them apart.
"You are destroyed, O Israel, because you are against me, against your helper.
Where is your king, that he may save you? Where are your rulers in all your towns, of whom you said, 'Give me a king and princes'?
So in my anger I gave you a king, and in my wrath I took him away.
The guilt of Ephraim is stored up, his sins are kept on record.
Pains as of a woman in childbirth come to him, but he is a child without wisdom; when the time arrives, he does not come to the opening of the womb.
"I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. Where, O death, are your plagues? Where, O grave, is your destruction? "I will have no compassion,
even though he thrives among his brothers. An east wind from the LORD will come, blowing in from the desert; his spring will fail and his well dry up. His storehouse will be plundered of all its treasures.
The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open."
何西阿书第十三章   第 13 章 

  何 13:1> 以法莲的辉煌,因他的罪而不被记念;今天我们该看重的是…… 

  13:1 以色列(“以法莲”)曾经很强盛,但到了何西阿时代,他们背叛了神,并在各国中失去了往日的权威。过去的杰出成就不能保证未来的辉煌。最好是记住神为我们所做和通过我们所做的事;同样重要的是要把我们与神的关系保持在一种生气勃勃的、历久弥新的状态,时时刻刻把自己交托给神。 

  何 13:4-6> 神赐人饱足,人反而高傲忘记神,难道这就是我们的写照? 

  13:4-6 当充足的财富使以色列感到自满时,他们就骄傲,并且忘记了神。今天,自满的破坏性与何西阿时代是一样的。你是否觉察到不断地需要神的同在和帮助?要学会在顺境时和逆境中都倚靠神。若你现在一帆风顺,谨防忘记谁给你这好运;不要依靠自己的才能,而要倚赖那位赐才能与我们的神(参申 6:10-12 ; 8:7-20 )。 

  何 13:11> 我们看不到强求中神勉强允准的事实,不知道珍惜,反再三地背弃神,结果…… 

  13:11 当以色列人求有王治理他们时,神就警告他们,国王不会为他们带来福祉。但祂答应了他们,把扫罗赐给他们作第一个王(参撒上 8:4-22 );第二任国王大卫是一个好君王,他的儿子所罗门王也颇有其父之风范。但在以色列分裂成两国后,北国再没有出过好君王。那些邪恶的王把北国领向敬拜偶像和不智的政治结盟中,随着最后一任国王何细亚被亚述人囚禁,北国终于断送在这些恶王的手上(参王下 17:1-6 )。 

  何 13:12> 以法莲的罪都被记录在案!至于我们暗中所犯的罪,你猜神知道不知道? 

  13:12 以法莲(以色列)的罪被记录在案,以资未来的审判。我们的罪神都知道,在末日审判时都将被显明出来(参林后 5:10 ;启 20:11-15 )。 

  何 13:14> 罪的工价就是死!那么我们的指望在乎…… 

  13:14 使徒保罗曾用这段经文教导有关人将来从死里复活的事情(参林前 15:55 )。对于相信基督赦罪拯救的人来说,死亡并不带来被毁灭的恐惧。
