Nadab and Abihu
W4 2011-07-21 (利10)
經文: 利未記 10:1 亞倫的兒子拿答、亞比戶各拿自己的香爐，盛上火，加上香，在耶和華面前獻上凡火，是耶和華沒有吩咐他們的，就有火從耶和華面前出來，把他們燒滅，他們就死在耶和華面前。
默想: 我們昨天才看到有火從耶和華那裡出來，燒盡壇上所獻的燔祭，作為亞倫獻祭蒙耶和華悅納的見證。今天我們又看到有火從耶和華那裡出來，但是卻不是燒盡壇上的燔祭，而是燒死獻祭的祭司，也就是亞倫的兩個兒子，拿答與亞比戶。這個事件給我們留下很大的警誡以及很重要的屬靈教導。遵命遠比獻祭重要。記得當掃羅沒能等待撒母耳的到來而任意自己就上前獻祭時，被撒母耳斥責，說：：耶和華喜悅燔祭和平安祭，豈如喜悅人聽從他的話呢？聽命勝於獻祭；順從勝於公羊的脂油。(撒上15:22) 當該隱與亞伯各自獻祭時，亞伯所獻的祭蒙耶和華悅納，但是耶和華卻看不中該隱的祭物，該隱還為此大發脾氣，耶和華對該隱說，你若行得好，豈不蒙悅納？你若行得不好，罪就伏在門前。他必戀慕你，你卻要制伏他。(創4:7) 求主幫助我，好讓我能夠一生謹慎，遵行你的命令。
題目: 拿達、亞比戶獻凡火何以被神燒滅？你有何看法與提醒？(參耶19:5、申4:2)
The Lord dislikes what he does not command or mention or what does not enter His mind (Jer 19:5). Therefore, do not add to what He commands us and do not subtract from it, but keep His commands (De 4:2). Read the Bible regularly and we will likely develop a deeper instinct to distinguish between right and wrong.
回覆刪除Aaron’s sons, Nadab and Abi'hu, each took his fire pan, put live coals in it, added in-incense, and presented it to the Lord. But this fire was not holy, because the Lord had not commanded them to present it
回覆刪除Suddenly the Lord sent fire, and it burned them to death there in the presence of the Lord.
“Do not add anything to what I command you, and do not take anything away. Obey the commands of the LORD your God that I have given you.” (De 4:2)
I read the Ten Commandments everyday to remind myself that rule.

耶和華我們神喜悅亞倫的獻祭，因為亞倫照著耶和華所吩咐摩西的（命令）去作。
回覆刪除同樣地，耶和華我們神喜悅我們的事奉和敬拜，每天依靠真理的聖靈，遵守祂的話，祂的命令去行，祂必與我們同在。希望我們大家在生活中，自潔，脫離卑賤的事，依靠祂，經歷祂，就必作貴重的器皿，成為聖潔，合乎主用，預備行各樣的善事（提摩太後書 2:21）。
“You must be careful to distinguish between what is ritually clean an unclean, between animals that may be eaten and those that may not.”
回覆刪除“You must keep holy, because I am holy.”
This rule tells that we must be careful to obey some details in our eating.
