每週一妥拉 2013/1/13-/1/19

從古時起,世界各地的猶太會堂會一週一次在安息日讀經,從摩西五經(妥拉)到先知的書(先知書)。每週的讀經內容都有一個希伯來名稱,其出自經文內容起頭的字。每週慣例讀經的實例剛好記載在路加福音四章16節,耶穌來到拿撒勒的會堂,讀了一段先知書(以賽亞書61章)。我們發現每週一次閱讀這些內容,不僅提供我們機會,與世界成千上萬的猶太人來確認神話語的內容,在我們為以色列與猶太人的代禱上,聖靈更時常貼切的啟發具體的內容禱告。


這週的閱讀(1/13-1/19)稱為『進去/來』(Bo)『耶和華對摩西說:你進去(來)見法老』,讀經進度為:

妥拉:出埃及記10:1-13:16

先知書:耶利米書46:13-28


*
出埃及記10:3. 『摩西、亞倫就進去見法老,對他說:耶和華─希伯來人的神這樣說:你在我面前不肯自卑要到幾時呢?容我的百姓去,好事奉我。』


就像在出埃及記9:1,主在這裡將祂的名字和神性與希伯來民族認同─一個民族可以追溯到亞伯拉罕、以撒和雅各前的許多世代,主又在燃燒的荊棘中與摩西認同。祂也是法老的父親在八十年前試圖除滅之種族的神(出1:16)。


請禱告:以色列能甦醒意識到他們所認識的是同樣的神,在法老面前稱自己是希伯來人的神,祂神蹟式地使這民族存留超過四千年以上,至今祂仍選擇與此民族認同,為著美善而非邪惡的目的。


*
出埃及記10:28-29. 『法老對摩西說:你離開我去吧,你要小心,不要再見我的面!因為你見我面的那日你就必死!摩西說:你說得好!我必不再見你的面了。』


在出埃及記7:1,主說:『我使你在法老面前代替神。』在希伯來聖經中充滿在主面前找著光、勝利與救恩的觀念(參考詩篇44:3, 80:3,7,19)。通常『面』(face)這個字與『同在』(presence)為同義字。在詩篇27:8-9,當主說:『當尋求我的面(Bakshu-Phanai)!』大衛誠心的回應神的勸告說:『你的面我正要尋求,不要向我掩面。』當法老拒絕摩西的面時,他正拒絕摩西之神的同在、生命與盼望,最後神只好答應他所求的。


請禱告:為著世俗的、宗教的、正統猶太教與極端正統猶太教的猶太人禱告,他們可以聽見並回應神放在所有人心中的呼喚:『當尋求我的面(Bakshu-Phanai)!』


*
出埃及記10:21-23. 『耶和華對摩西說:你向天伸杖,使埃及地黑暗;這黑暗似乎摸得著。摩西向天伸杖,埃及遍地就烏黑了三天。三天之久,人不能相見,誰也不敢起來離開本處;惟有以色列人家中都有亮光。』


生命在祂裡頭,這生命就是人的光。光照在黑暗裡,黑暗卻不接受光。那光是真光,照亮一切生在世上的人。』(約翰福音1:4-5,9)


請禱告:人們可以感到並憎恨黑暗─真光將照亮在以色列和埃及,為這兩族群的內在帶來照明、盼望與安全禱告。


*
出埃及記12:2. 『你們要以本月為正月,為一年之首。』


在希伯來曆,一年的數字(今年是5773年)是從秋天的吹角節開始,傳統上此與世界被造的季節有關。然而,亞筆月(Aviv在申命記16:1又稱尼散月)在希伯來宗教曆裡稱『正月,為一年之首』,今年的亞筆月開始於三月十二日。


*
出埃及記12:12-13. 『因為那夜我要巡行埃及地,把埃及地一切頭生的,無論是人是牲畜,都擊殺了,又要敗壞埃及一切的神。我是耶和華。這血要在你們所住的房屋上作記號;我一見這血,就越過你們去。我擊殺埃及地頭生的時候,災殃必不臨到你們身上滅你們。』


在出埃及記一開始(參考出4:22-23),神警告法老若拒絕讓祂的『長子』以色列來事奉祂,神會殺了法老的長子。是主自己,而不單是『使者』巡行(巡行的希伯來文avar),在這地施行審判;然而,13節所提到的越過(pasach)意指『跳過』或『跨過』─因此神跳過他們,審判臨到其他的長子身上。


請禱告:這週在會堂讀到這段經文,以及四月份在家中的逾越節晚餐桌上再次讀到時─遮蓋與越過審判之羔羊寶血的信息,會超自然啟示在世界各地的猶太人中間。禱告聖靈會感動人心來認出『神的羔羊,除去世人的罪』─被神擊打、苦待的逾越節羔羊是為我們的過害受害,因祂受的鞭傷,我們得醫治(以賽亞書53:4-5)。


*
耶利米書 47:27-28. 『我的僕人雅各啊,不要懼怕!以色列啊,不要驚惶!因我要從遠方拯救你,從被擄到之地拯救你的後裔。雅各必回來,得享平靖安逸,無人使他害怕。我的僕人雅各啊,不要懼怕!因我與你同在。』


下週的閱讀進度(1/20-1/26)被稱為『容百姓去』(B'Shalach),妥拉─出埃及記13:17-17:16;先知書─士師記4:4-5:31


馬汀和娜瑪‧賽維士(Martin & Norma Sarvis)

於耶路撒冷

THIS WEEK'S TORAH PORTION:

From ancient times there has been a weekly portion (Parashah) from the first five books of Moses (The Torah) and an ending (Haftarah) from the Prophets read on the Sabbath in synagogues around the world. This portion is given a Hebrew name drawn from the opening words of the Torah passage. An illustration of this practice appears to have been recorded in Luke 4:16 where Yeshua (Jesus) arrived in the synagogue in Nazareth and was asked to read the portion (Isaiah 61) from the Prophets. We have found that in perusing these weekly readings, not only are we provided opportunity to identify in the context of God's Word with millions of Jewish people around the world, but very often the Holy Spirit will illumine specific passages pertinent that week in our intercession for the Land and people of Israel. A ll texts are those of English translations of the Scriptures.


The readings for this week are called Bo- "Come" (-to Pharaoh! For I have made his heart and the heart of his servants heavy-with-stubbornness."-Everett Fox: translation).

TORAH: Exodus 10:1-13:16

HAFTARAH: Jeremiah 46:13-28


*Exodus 10:3. "Thus says YHVH Elohei-ha'Ivrim ("Yehovah the Hebrews-God"): 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before Me? Send My people that they may serve Me.'"


As in Ex. 9:1, the LORD here identifies his Name YHVH and godhead Elohim with the Hebrews as a race-a people extending back many generations before the fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (with whom He had identified Himself to Moses in the Burning Bush). He is thus also the God of the race which Pharaoh's father had tried to exterminate 80 years previously (Ex 1:16).


PLEASE PRAY: for an awakened awareness in Israel that it is this same God who identified Himself by Name with the Hebrew race to Pharaoh.who has miraculously kept it in existence for over 4000 years-and who still chooses to identify Himself with this race for good and not evil.


*Exodus 10:28-29. "Then Pharaoh said to him, 'Get away from me! Take heed to yourself and see my face no more! For in the day you see my face you shall die!" So Moses said, 'You have spoken well. I will never see your face again.'"


In Ex 7:1, the LORD says, "See, I have made you Elohim to Pharaoh." The concept of finding light, victory and salvation in the LORD's face runs throughout the Hebrew Scriptures (See Psalms 44:3, 80:3,7,19). Often, the word "face" is synonymous with the word "presence". In Psalm 27:8-9, David's response to the admonition "Bakshu-Phanai!-Seek My Face!" is a heartfelt, "Your face O LORD will I seek.Do not hide your face from me." By rejecting Moses' face, Pharaoh was rejecting the presence and life and hope of Moses' God.and eventually God allowed him to be granted his request.


PLEASE PRAY: For secular, religious, Orthodox, and ultra-Orthodox Jews to hear and respond to the call which God places in the hearts of all men, "Bakshu-Phanai!-Seek my Face!"


*Exodus 10:21-23. "Then the LORD said to Moses, 'Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there ma y be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness which may even be felt.and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days. They did not see one another; nor did anyone rise from his place for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings."


"In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world" (John 1:4-5,9).


PLEASE PRAY: that the darkness will be felt and hated-and that the true Light will shine into both Egypt and Israel, bringing illumination, hope and security to the inner dwellings of both of these peoples.


*Exodus 12:2. "This month shall be your beginning of months; it shall be the first month of the year to you."


The "number" of the year in the Hebrew calendar (This year 5773) comes with the Feast of Trumpets in the fall and is traditionally related to the season associated with the creation of the world. However, this month of "Aviv" (Deut. 16:1; also called "Nisan") marks the "Beginning of Months" on the Hebrew religious calendar. This year it will begin on 12 March.


*Exodus 12:12-13. "For I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt.and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment; I am YHVH. Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt."


At the very beginning (see Ex. 4:22-23) YHVH had warned Pharaoh that refusal to release His "firstborn" Israel to serve Him, would result in the killing of his own firstborn. It was the LORD, not a mere 'angel', Who would pass through (Heb: avar) the land executing judgment; however, the word translated "pass over" in verse 13 (pasach) means to "skip" or "step over"-thus sparing them the judgment coming on all the other firstborn.


PLEASE PRAY: That this weekend when this passage will be read in synagogues-and at the Seder tables on March 25th when it will be read again in homes-that the message of the BLOOD of the Lamb which covers and diverts judgment would be imbued with supernatural revelation to Jews around the world. Pray that the Holy Spirit would move hearts to recognize the "Lamb of God, who carries away the sin of the world"-the Pesach Lamb who was "stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.He was wounded for our transgressions.and by His stripes we are healed" (Isaiah 53:4-5).


*Jeremiah 46:27. "'But do not fear, O My servant Jacob, and do not be dismayed, O Israel! For behold, I will save you from afar, and your offspring from the land of their captivity; Jacob shall return, have rest and be at ease; No one shall make him afraid. Do not fear, O Jacob My servant,' says the LORD, 'For I am with you.'"

從耶路撒冷來的代禱信與信息2013/1/11


親密關係

作者: Asher Intrater


人一生裡最寶貴的莫過於親密關係,而其中最首要的是與神的親密關係,其次才是與人的親密關係。這樣的關係如同貴重的珍珠,是我們應該捨去一切來追求的。這樣的親密,是從我們因信耶穌─彌賽亞,與神建立的個人關係而來。


亞伯拉罕成為神的朋友 (賽 41:8、雅 2:23),摩西是神面對面所認識的 (申 34:10) ,大衛說與神 kirvah (希伯來文,原意為親密、靠近)比世上的一切都來的重要 (詩 73:25),大衛渴望與他的朋友有「甘甜的談論」 (詩 55:14)。


約翰是與耶穌最親近的使徒,曾在逾越節晚餐(最後的晚餐)時靠在耶穌懷裡,並且是眾所周知的「耶穌所愛的門徒」(約 13:23),他也寫道:「父自己愛你們」(約 16:27)


如果父自己愛你們,那在神和我們之間是沒有隔閡、沒有距離、沒有拒絕、沒有分開的。神給的是最貼近的完全親密關係。申命記第四章 4 節,希伯來文直接的翻譯是 davek ─那些「像黏膠一樣黏著神的人」。還有能比黏膠再更親近的嗎?


罪破壞了這樣的親密關係,耶利米形容這就像是弄髒的腰帶 (耶13:1-13)。我們過去跟神的關係就像內衣與身體般地貼近,然後變得汙穢不悅。就像丈夫或妻子有了婚外性行為,背叛了婚姻裡的性親密關係 (何 1:2、3:1),罪是對親密關係的背叛。


親密的關係,能使人向對方分享心裡最隱密的想法。藉著聖靈,神將祂的最深心意與我們分享 (林前 2:10-12)。聖靈知道神的心意,然後向我們傳達。這種深處與深處的觸碰,就是親密關係。如果我們向神敞開心扉,神也會向我們敞開心扉 (林前 8:3)


親密的關係是很脆弱的。如果我們向人分享了我們心中敏感的事,我們是很脆弱的、是有可能會受傷。脆弱帶有傷痛,傷痛就是親密關係的代價。我們是會「被朋友傷害的」 (亞 13:6)。


所以親密的關係需要信任。如果對神沒有信心,我們不可能靠近神(來 11:6)。我們需要信心來信任別人。如果想要贏得別人信任,自己必須先證明自己是值得被信任的。神對我們的信實使得我們能信任祂。信實使得別人信任我們。


耶穌被釘上十字架,就是在代替我們走這一段過程。耶穌自己變得脆弱,以打開我們與父神親密的通路。我們讓祂受傷,祂付上使我們能與祂建立親密關係的代價。祂為了我們,被脫去衣服,被毒打,被辱罵。這就是愛的犧牲,承擔脆弱所帶來的痛,為我們能與神建立親密的關係而付上代價。


我們每天背起我們的十字架,為要與祂同行 (路 9:23)。我們反覆思量經文,為要理解神的心意 (賽 55:8-11)。我們在聖靈裡禱告,為要能有認識神的啟示 (弗 1:17)。我們謙卑我們自己,為要到神的面前 (太 11:25-29)。我們順服,以至於死,為要更多認識祂、更多像祂 (腓 3:10)。


耶穌最後也是最重要的禱告,是我們能「合而為一」(約 17:11、21-23)。除了是為了我們之間的聯合、合一禱告,更是為了我們與神的合而為一。耶穌禱告我們能在神的裡面,神在我們的裡面,如同父神在祂的裡面和祂在父神的裡面。耶穌正邀請我們,經歷祂與父神之間完美的親密關係。


與神親密的聯合,是世界上最偉大、最能使人改變的經歷。這樣的親密,是很榮耀、很純淨的 (約 17:5、10、17、24) 。它是喜樂滿盈的 (詩 16:11)。這正是神創造我們的目的。


2013 年以色列大選

作者: Mati Shoshani, Jerusalem Institute of Justice


今年的 1 月 22 號,以色列人將選出下一任內閣官員和總理。大部分的政黨,都選擇以黨內領導人的形象作為這次競選的主題。就新政府所將要處裡的問題(像是以巴和平進程、伊朗的威脅、政府負債、傳統猶太教信徒兵役問題、以色列中產階級的經濟問題) ,大家都不是很願意發表政見,因為這些問題無法在短期間解決。


當選舉結束後,新的總理和政府,勢必要展現出創新的領導能力和清楚的方向來要面對一堆等在前頭問題。請為神的旨意能夠在這次大選中成就,及新領袖們有智慧和清楚的思緒來禱告。


雪的祝福
這個禮拜,以色列的境內下起了二十年來最大的暴風雪雨,加利利海的水面漲了 73 公分,預計在今年冬天結束前可達到最高水位,耶路撒冷也有 13 公分的積雪。雖然這次的暴風雪雨帶來的淹水,在境內各地造成損失 (Bat Hefer 屯墾區裡,有超過一百個家庭需要疏散),但很開心看到地下水井又蓄滿了水。我們相信這代表著 2013年裡,屬靈的祝福會像水井一樣滿溢。
