瑪拉基書 3

Studie

   

1 萬軍之耶和華:我要差遣我的使者在我前面預備道路。你們所尋求必忽然進入他的殿;立約的使者,就是你們所仰慕的,快要到。

2 的日子,誰能當得起呢?他顯現的時候,誰能立得住呢?因為他如煉金之人的,如漂布之人的鹼。

3 他必下如煉淨子的,必潔淨利未人,熬煉他們像一樣;他們就憑公獻供物給耶和華

4 那時,猶大耶路撒冷所獻的供物必蒙耶和華悅納,彷彿古時之日、上古之年。

5 萬軍之耶和華:我必臨近你們,施行審判。我必速速作見證,警戒行邪術的、犯姦淫的、起假誓的、虧負人之工價的、欺壓寡婦孤兒的、屈枉寄居的,和不敬畏我的。

6 因我─耶和華是不改變的,所以你們雅各之子沒有滅亡。

7 萬軍之耶和華:從你們列祖的日子以來,你們常常偏離我的典章而不遵守。現在你們要向我,我就向你們。你們卻問:我們如何才是向呢?

8 人豈可奪取之物呢?你們竟奪取我的供物。你們卻:我們在何事上奪取你的供物呢?就是你們在當納的十分之一和當獻的供物上。

9 因你們通國的人都奪取我的供物,咒詛就臨到你們身上。

10 萬軍之耶和華:你們要將當納的十分之一全然送入倉庫,使我家有糧,以此試試我,是否為你們敞開上的窗戶,傾福與你們,甚至無處可容。

11 萬軍之耶和華:我必為你們斥責蝗蟲(原文是吞噬者),不容他毀壞你們的土產。你們田間的葡萄樹在未熟之先也不掉果子。

12 萬軍之耶和華:萬國必稱你們為有福的,因你們的必成為喜樂之

13 耶和華:你們用頂撞我,你們還:我們用甚麼頂撞了你呢?

14 你們:事奉是徒然的,遵守所吩咐的,在萬軍之耶和華面前苦苦齋戒,有甚麼益處呢?

15 如今我們稱狂傲的人為有福,並且行惡的人得建立;他們雖然試探,卻得脫離災難。

16 那時,敬畏耶和華的彼此談論,耶和華側耳而,且有紀念冊在他面前,記錄那敬畏耶和華、思念他名的人。

17 萬軍之耶和華:在我所定的日子,他們必屬我,特特歸我。我必憐恤他們,如同憐恤服事自己的兒子

18 那時你們必歸回,將善人和惡人,事奉的和不事奉的,分別出來。

The Inner Meaning of the Prophets and Psalms # 249

  
/ 418  
  

249. Internal Meaning of Malachi, Chapter 3

1-3 The Lord will come into the world, and will teach the Word in its purity. (11)

4 The church, doctrine, and worship will then be as they had been among the ancients. (11)

5-6 The Lord will then execute judgment upon all who (15, 17)

have adulterated and destroyed the truths of the church. (2, 10)

7 They have done this from the beginning, and do not desist from it, (2, 3)

8-9 nor do they desist from adulteration, therefore this will bring about their ruin. (3, 2)

10-12 If they had lived according to the statutes, they would have been in the good of the church. (2)

13-15 They have confirmed themselves in this, that good is of no profit and that evil does no harm, because the good and the wicked are alike prosperous. (2)

16 It is otherwise with those who trust in the Lord;, (11, 1)

17 they will be blessed of the Lord when He comes. (11, 1)

18 Then the difference will be seen, (3, 11)

Malachi 3:10-12

Studie

      

10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says Yahweh of Armies, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for.

11 I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field," says Yahweh of Armies.

12 "All nations shall call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land," says Yahweh of Armies.
