创世记第二十章: 20:1 亚伯拉罕从那里向南地迁去,寄居在加低斯和书珥中间的基拉耳。 20:2 亚伯拉罕称他的妻撒拉为妹子。基拉耳王亚比米勒差人把撒拉取了去。 20:3 但夜间, 神来在梦中对亚比米勒说:“你是个死人哪!因为你取了那女人来,她原是别人的妻子。” 20:4 亚比米勒却还没有亲近撒拉。他说:“主啊,连有义的国你也要毁灭吗? 20:5 那人岂不是自己对我说‘她是我的妹子’吗?就是女人也自己说:‘他是我的哥哥。’我做这事是心正手洁的。” 20:6 神在梦中对他说:“我知道你做这事是心中正直,我也拦阻了你,免得你得罪我,所以我不容你沾著她。 20:7 现在你把这人的妻子归还他,因为他是先知,他要为你祷告,使你存活。你若不归还他,你当知道,你和你所有的人都必要死。” 20:8 亚比米勒清早起来,召了众臣仆来,将这些事都说给他们听,他们都甚惧怕。 20:9 亚比米勒召了亚伯拉罕来,对他说:“你怎么向我这样行呢?我在甚么事上得罪了你,你竟使我和我国里的人陷在大罪里?你向我行不当行的事了!” 20:10 亚比米勒又对亚伯拉罕说:“你见了甚么才做这事呢?” 20:11 亚伯拉罕说:“我以为这地方的人总不惧怕 神,必为我妻子的缘故杀我。 20:12 况且她也实在是我的妹子,她与我是同父异母,后来作了我的妻子。 20:13 当 神叫我离开父家飘流在外的时候,我对她说:‘我们无论走到甚么地方,你可以对人说:他是我的哥哥;这就是你待我的恩典了。’” 20:14 亚比米勒把牛羊、仆婢赐给亚伯拉罕,又把他的妻子撒拉归还他。 20:15 亚比米勒又说:“看哪!我的地都在你面前,你可以随意居住。” 20:16 又对撒拉说:“我给你哥哥一千银子,作为你在合家人面前遮羞的(注:“羞”原文作“眼”),你就在众人面前没有不是了。” 20:17 亚伯拉罕祷告 神, 神就医好了亚比米勒和他的妻子,并他的众女仆,她们便能生育。 20:18 因耶和华为亚伯拉罕的妻子撒拉的缘故,已经使亚比米勒家中的妇人不能生育。

7.亚伯拉罕和亚比米勒(二O)

  二O1~18 我们或者会感到希奇,亚伯拉罕何以对法老犯的大错在二十年内再犯,伪称撒拉是他的妹子。他虽然是信心上的英雄,却没有汲取上次的教训,再一次屈服于试探之下——这是难以置信的,直至我们想起自己也常对罪卑躬屈膝!无论我们怎样爱神,总会遇上一些特别难以抵抗的诱惑──我们灵命上最常受攻击之处。当我们努力战胜自己的软弱时,知道神在看顾我们,正如他保守亚伯拉罕一样,我们就可以得到鼓励。

  在基拉耳王亚比米勒身上发生的事其实是亚伯拉罕在埃及表里不一事件的重演(一二10~17)。亚比米勒因无知而娶了已婚的妇人,几乎犯了奸淫罪;幸好神阻止他玷污撒拉,使他得免犯罪。神以死亡威吓亚比米勒,神对他是何等的怜悯!神也多次这样挽回我们,使我们不致犯罪,只是我们不察觉而已。这段经文告诉我们,神不只是历史边缘的旁观者那么简单,他能驾御他子民的邪恶,甚至借着那些不信人的生命行事。

  异教徒亚比米勒处理这事比“神的朋友”亚伯拉罕公义(亚比米勒是个称呼,而不是一个姓名)。信徒给世人斥责实在是非常的羞愧!半真半假的道理被说成是百分百的真理,那就是歪理。亚比米勒问亚伯拉罕到底是什么动机,竟然使这位信心的祖宗落到要用撒谎欺骗的手段。原来亚伯拉罕以为在一班不惧怕神的人中间,他必须凭着自己来作点什么,在神之外自己保护自己。这是何等的愚昧!后来他竟然说是神先要他飘流在外,企图把部分责任推卸在神身上。他若谦卑承认自己的过错,还算英明。无论如何,他仍是属乎神的人。

  主差遣亚比米勒到亚伯拉罕那里去,亚伯拉罕就祈求神医治亚比米勒一家,使他家不再不生育了。注意这时候亚伯拉罕自己还没有得着儿子,但是,他能为别人的生育祷告神。他为别人所代求的这件事,就是他自己所追求的,是他自己一生所没有的。现在他知道他的妻子能不能生育不在乎人,完全是神的事了。

  “作为你……遮羞的”(16节)直译作“给你遮眼的”,意思是用作平息事件的礼物。因此可以这样理解:“给你作满足的回馈,向所有与你一起的人和每一个过犯得以纠正的人作见证。”

神也多次这样挽回我们,使我们不致犯罪,只是我们不察觉而已。

那次,我处在犯罪的边沿,就是男女之事,但我还是没犯。

出来以后,天立刻下起雨来,我认为是神的震怒。

Genesis 20 Abraham's Treachery 1Now Abraham journeyed from (A)there toward the land of (B)the [a]Negev, and settled between Kadesh and Shur; then he sojourned in (C)Gerar. 2Abraham said of Sarah his wife, "(D)She is my sister " So (E)Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah. 3(F)But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, "Behold, (G)you are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken, for she is married." 4Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said, "Lord, (H)will You slay a nation, even though blameless? 5"Did he not himself say to me, 'She is my sister'? And she (I)herself said, 'He is my brother ' In (J)the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this." 6Then God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also (K)kept you from sinning against Me; therefore I did not let you touch her. 7"Now therefore, restore the man's wife, for (L)he is a prophet, and he will pray for you and you will live. But if you do not restore her, know that you shall surely die, you and all who are yours." 8So Abimelech arose early in the morning and called all his servants and told all these things in their hearing; and the men were greatly frightened. 9(M)Then Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, "What have you done to us? And how have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom (N)a great sin? You have done to me things that ought not to be done." 10And Abimelech said to Abraham, "What have you encountered, that you have done this thing?" 11Abraham said, "Because I thought, surely there is no (O)fear of God in this place, and (P)they will kill me because of my wife. 12"Besides, she actually is my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother, and she became my wife; 13and it came about, when (Q)God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, 'This is the kindness which you will show to me: everywhere we go, (R)say of me, "He is my brother."'" 14(S)Abimelech then took sheep and oxen and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored his wife Sarah to him. 15Abimelech said, "(T)Behold, my land is before you; settle wherever you please." 16To Sarah he said, "Behold, I have given your (U)brother a thousand pieces of silver; behold, it is your vindication before all who are with you, and before all men you are cleared." 17(V)Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his maids, so that they bore children. 18(W)For the LORD had closed fast all the wombs of the household of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
