旧约 - 民数记(Numbers)第25章

While Israel was staying in Shittim, the men began to indulge in sexual immorality with Moabite women,
who invited them to the sacrifices to their gods. The people ate and bowed down before these gods.
So Israel joined in worshiping the Baal of Peor. And the LORD'S anger burned against them.
The LORD said to Moses, "Take all the leaders of these people, kill them and expose them in broad daylight before the LORD, so that the LORD'S fierce anger may turn away from Israel."
So Moses said to Israel's judges, "Each of you must put to death those of your men who have joined in worshiping the Baal of Peor."
Then an Israelite man brought to his family a Midianite woman right before the eyes of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
When Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, saw this, he left the assembly, took a spear in his hand
and followed the Israelite into the tent. He drove the spear through both of them--through the Israelite and into the woman's body. Then the plague against the Israelites was stopped;
but those who died in the plague numbered 24,000.
The LORD said to Moses,
"Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, has turned my anger away from the Israelites; for he was as zealous as I am for my honor among them, so that in my zeal I did not put an end to them.
Therefore tell him I am making my covenant of peace with him.
He and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood, because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites."
The name of the Israelite who was killed with the Midianite woman was Zimri son of Salu, the leader of a Simeonite family.
And the name of the Midianite woman who was put to death was Cozbi daughter of Zur, a tribal chief of a Midianite family.
The LORD said to Moses,
"Treat the Midianites as enemies and kill them,
because they treated you as enemies when they deceived you in the affair of Peor and their sister Cozbi, the daughter of a Midianite leader, the woman who was killed when the plague came as a result of Peor."
民数记第廿五章   第 25 章 

  民 25:1> 明枪易躲,诱惑难防。我易受至命伤的要害在哪?如何提防? 

  25:1 这一节经文说明以色列人必须面对的极大挑战。摩西与约书亚所面临的最大危机,不是耶利哥的强大敌军,乃是眼前外邦人的宗教及文化带来的引诱。 

  民 25:1-2> 行为受观念支配,观念被灵支配,怎样让神掌管才不致被罪控制? 

  25:1-2 圣经没有说以色列人是怎样与摩押女子行淫乱的。在迦南人的宗教生活中通常有庙妓。以色列人起初只为情欲,并未想过拜偶像,但不久就受不住引诱而敬拜巴力。他们很快就习惯了异教的习俗。这种寻乐之心,使他们的属灵光景一败涂地。你是否放松自己,不去持守圣经的标准,随心所欲任意妄为呢? 

  民 25:1-3> 罪是撒但的圈套,它引人犯罪的伎俩是…… 

  25:1-3 将性欲的罪恶和拜偶像二者混而为一,正是巴兰的诡计( 31:16 ,参启 2:14 ),这位巴兰刚祝福完以色列民,好像与他们是同路人,使百姓误信他所做的都是正当的事,至少好一段时间大家都这样以为( 22-24 );直到巴兰带来重大损害,众人才晓得他是贪婪的术士,是与外邦异教勾结的人。今天我们也要谨慎观人,注意前来在灵性上帮助我们的人是否言行一致。 

  民 25:3> 向假神妥协,耶和华必大怒! 

  25:3 巴力是迦南地最出名又受欢迎的神,以公牛来代表之,是象征力量、丰收、雨水与庄稼之神。以色列人在迦南地的时候,敌不过拜巴力与庙妓的引诱,惹耶和华大发怒气。 

  民 25:6> 神发怒,人痛悔,首领心利仍行淫,如何处置? 

  25:6 “到他兄弟那里去”这句话若译为“带到他的内室去”更佳,这是指心利带她到帐棚中行淫。心利轻视诫命,终遭神怒。 

  民 25:10-11> 义怒,理当发之如非尼哈;可是我们的怒气多数是…… 

  25:10-11 从非尼哈的这件事中我们清楚看到,有时人的怒气也是恰当且合理的;非尼哈为耶和华发义怒。不过我们怎样才知道自己的怒气是理所当然的,又在什么情况之下才要抑制呢?在你发怒之前,先想想下面的问题:( 1 )我为什么发怒?( 2 )是我,还是别人的权利受到损害?( 3 )真理(神的原则)是否被破坏?如果只是为了个人的得失,就要控制你的怒气,以智慧行事。如果是为真理力争,发怒是理所当然的。不过以暴力与报复来发泄怒气的话,通常都是错误的(非尼哈这件事是特例)。我们应当为罪而发义怒,使我们愈加像神。 

  民 25:12-13> 非尼哈的行动,带来了美好的结果── 

  25:12-13 非尼哈的行动,赎了以色列人全族的罪,使神不再惩罚他们。神更立他的子孙作以色列人的大祭司。──《灵修版圣经注释》
