1491. “法老就召了亚伯兰来” 表主的回忆. 这从 “法老” 表知识的含义清楚可知. 主在孩童时所吸收的知识本身, 就是记忆知识在此被称为 “法老”. 因此, 向主如此说话的正是知识本身, 也就是说, 耶和华藉着知识这样做. 由此明显可知, 此处这些话表主的回忆. 觉悟经由知识, 因而经由表知识的法老 (如前所述) 而来.

Title: Father Abraham

Topic: The Word

Summary: The true, spiritual meaning why many people in the Old and New Testaments are said to refer to Abraham as their father is that both "Abraham" and "father" mean love. A state of love is the "land of Abraham" that has been promised to us all, if we want it.
