西番雅书 2

Studie

   

1 不知羞耻的国民哪,你们应当聚集!趁命令没有发出,日子过去如风前的糠,耶和华的烈怒未临到你们,他发怒的日子未到以先,你们应当聚集前来。

2 a

3 世上遵守耶和华典章的谦卑人哪,你们都当寻求耶和华!当寻求谦卑,或者在耶和华发怒的日子可以隐藏起来。

4 迦萨必致见弃;亚实基伦必然荒凉。人在正午必赶出亚实突的民;以革伦也被拔出根来。

5 沿的基利提族有祸了!迦南非利士人啊,耶和华的与你反对,说:我必毁灭你,以致无人居住

6 沿之地要变为草场,其上有牧人的住处和羊群的圈。

7 这地必为犹大家剩下的人所得;他们必在那里牧放群羊,晚上必躺卧在亚实基伦的房屋中;因为耶和华─他们的必眷顾他们,使他们被掳的人归回。

8 摩押人的毁谤和亚扪人的辱骂,就是毁谤我的百姓,自夸自大,侵犯他们的境界。

9 万军之耶和华以色列的:我指着我的永生起誓:摩押必像所多玛,亚扪人必像蛾摩拉,都变为刺草、盐坑永远荒废之地。我百姓所剩下的必掳掠他们;我国中所馀剩的必得着他们的地。

10 这事临到他们是因他们骄傲,自夸自大,毁谤万军之耶和华的百姓。

11 耶和华必向他们显可畏之威,因他必叫世上的诸瘦弱。列国海的居民各在自己的地方敬拜他。

12 古实人哪,你们必被我的刀所杀。

13 耶和华必伸攻击北方,毁灭亚述,使尼尼微荒凉,又乾旱如旷野

14 群畜,就是各国(国:或译类)的走兽必卧在其中;鹕和箭猪要宿在柱顶上。在窗户内有鸣叫的声音;门槛都必毁坏,香柏木已经露出。

15 这是素来欢乐安然居住的城,心里:惟有我,除我以外再没有别的;现在何竟荒凉成为野兽躺卧之处!凡经过的人都必摇嗤笑他。

5. “Day” or “time” in these passages mean the Lord’s advent.

A day of gloom, of darkness, of haziness, one without light, one of devastation, of the final iniquity, or of destruction, means the Lord’s advent when He was no longer known and when as a consequence nothing any longer of the church remained.

A cruel day, a dreadful day, a day of wrath, of anger, of tumult, of visitation, of sacrifice, of retribution, of distress, of war, or of a cry, means the Lord’s coming to judge.

A day when Jehovah alone will be exalted; when He shall be one and His name one; when an offshoot of Jehovah shall be beautiful and glorious; when the righteous shall flourish; when Jehovah shall vivify; when He will seek His flock; when He will make a new covenant; when the mountains drip new wine; when living waters flow from Jerusalem; when people will look to the God of Israel; and the like — these mean the Lord’s advent to establish a new church, one that will acknowledge Him as the redeemer and savior.
