約拿書 3

Funda

   

1 耶和華的二次臨到約拿說:

2 起來!往尼尼微城去,向其中的居民宣告我所吩咐你的話。

3 約拿便照耶和華的起來,往尼尼微去。這尼尼微是極的城,有日的路程。

4 約拿進城走了日,宣告:再等四十日,尼尼微傾覆了!

5 尼尼微人信服,便宣告禁食,從最的到至小的都穿麻衣(或譯:披上麻布)。

6 這信息傳到尼尼微王的耳中,他就下了寶座,脫下朝服,披上麻布在灰中。

7 他又使人遍告尼尼微通城,:王和臣有令,人不可嘗甚麼,牲畜、牛不可吃草,也不可

8 牲畜都當披上麻布要切切求告。各回頭離開所行的惡道,丟棄手中的強暴。

9 或者意後悔,不發烈怒,使我們不致滅亡,也未可知。

10 於是他們的行為,見他們離開惡道,他就後悔,不把所的災禍降與他們了。

God

  
Ancient of Days, by William Blake

When the Bible speaks of "Jehovah," it is representing love itself, the inmost love that is the essence of the Lord. That divine love is one, whole and complete in itself, and Jehovah also is one, a name applied only to the Lord. The divine love expresses itself in the form of wisdom. Love, then, is the essence of God -- His inmost. Wisdom -- the loving understanding of how to put love into action -- is slightly more external, giving love a way to express itself. Wisdom, however, is expressed in a great variety of thoughts and ideas, what the Writings collectively call divine truth. There are also many imaginary gods, and sometimes angels and people can be called gods (the Lord said Moses would be as a god to Aaron). So when the Bible calls the Lord "God," it is in most cases referring to divine truth. In other cases, "God" has reference to what is called the divine human. The case there is this: As human beings, we cannot engage the Lord directly as divine love. It is too powerful and too pure. Instead, we have to approach Him by understanding Him through divine truth. Divine truth, then, is the Lord in human form, a form we can approach and understand. Thus "God" is also used in reference to this human aspect, because it is an expression of truth.
