舊約利未記 6:8–7:38
前情提要
上回說到
昨天():神吩咐為誤犯的罪獻贖罪祭,祭司、會眾、官長和平民各按身分獻不同的祭牲,窮人可以獻斑鳩、雛鴿或細麵。冒犯聖物或虧負鄰舍的,要獻贖愆祭,並照數賠還、另加五分之一。
今天你會讀到
前幾天的經文主要告訴百姓怎樣獻祭,今天是吩咐亞倫和他子孫的各種祭的條例:燔祭壇上的火不可熄滅;素祭、贖罪祭、贖愆祭哪些歸祭司、在哪裡吃;平安祭分為感謝、還願和甘心獻的,祭肉要在期限內吃完;脂油和血都不可吃;搖祭的胸和舉祭的腿歸給祭司。
閱讀小提示
留意 「在壇上必有常常燒著的火,不可熄滅」:燔祭壇的火最初是從神那裡來的(),祭司每天早晨添柴,使它永不熄滅。

利未記 第 6 章
燔祭的條例:壇上的火不可熄滅
8耶和華曉諭摩西說:Then the LORD said to Moses,
9「你要吩咐亞倫和他的子孫說,燔祭的乃是這樣:燔祭要放在壇的柴上,從晚上到天亮,壇上的火要常常燒著。“Command Aaron and his sons that this is the law of the burnt offering: The burnt offering is to remain on the hearth of the altar all night, until morning, and the fire must be kept burning on the altar.
10祭司要穿上細麻布衣服,又要把細麻布褲子穿在身上,把壇上所燒的燔祭灰收起來,倒在壇的旁邊;And the priest shall put on his linen robe and linen undergarments, and he shall remove from the altar the ashes of the burnt offering that the fire has consumed and place them beside it.
11隨後要脫去這衣服,穿上別的衣服,把灰拿到營外潔淨之處。Then he must take off his garments, put on other clothes, and carry the ashes outside the camp to a ceremonially clean place.
12壇上的火要在其上常常燒著,不可熄滅。祭司要每日早晨在上面燒柴,並要把燔祭擺在壇上,在其上燒平安祭牲的脂油。The fire on the altar shall be kept burning; it must not be extinguished. Every morning the priest is to add wood to the fire, arrange the burnt offering on it, and burn the fat portions of the peace offerings on it.
13在壇上必有常常燒著的火,不可熄滅。」The fire shall be kept burning on the altar continually; it must not be extinguished.
素祭的條例
14「素祭的條例乃是這樣:亞倫的子孫要在壇前把這祭獻在耶和華面前。Now this is the law of the grain offering: Aaron’s sons shall present it before the LORD in front of the altar.
15祭司要從其中─就是從素祭的細麵中─取出自己的一把,又要取些油和素祭上所有的乳香,燒在壇上,奉給耶和華為馨香素祭的紀念。The priest is to remove a handful of fine flour and olive oil, together with all the frankincense from the grain offering, and burn the memorial portion on the altar as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
16所剩下的,亞倫和他子孫要吃,必在聖處不帶酵而吃,要在會幕的院子裡吃。Aaron and his sons are to eat the remainder. It must be eaten without leaven in a holy place; they are to eat it in the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting.
17烤的時候不可。這是從所獻給我的火祭中賜給他們的分,是至聖的,和贖罪祭並贖愆祭一樣。It must not be baked with leaven; I have assigned it as their portion of My food offerings. It is most holy, like the sin offering and the guilt offering.
18凡獻給耶和華的火祭,亞倫子孫中的男丁都要吃這一分,直到萬代,作他們。摸這些祭物的,都要成為聖。」Any male among the sons of Aaron may eat it. This is a permanent portion from the food offerings to the LORD for the generations to come. Anything that touches them will become holy.”
祭司受膏日的素祭
19耶和華曉諭摩西說:Then the LORD said to Moses,
20「當亞倫受膏的日子,他和他子孫所要獻給耶和華的供物,就是細麵伊法十分之一,為常獻的素祭:早晨一半,晚上一半。“This is the offering that Aaron and his sons must present to the LORD on the day he is anointed: a tenth of an ephah of fine flour as a regular grain offering, half of it in the morning and half in the evening.
21要在鐵鏊上用油調和做成,,你就拿進來;烤好了分成塊子,獻給耶和華為馨香的素祭。It shall be prepared with oil on a griddle; you are to bring it well-kneaded and present it as a grain offering broken in pieces, a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
22亞倫的子孫中,接續他為受膏的祭司,要把這素祭獻上,要全燒給耶和華。這是永遠的定例。The priest, who is one of Aaron’s sons and will be anointed to take his place, is to prepare it. As a permanent portion for the LORD, it must be burned completely.
23祭司的素祭都要燒了,卻不可吃。」Every grain offering for a priest shall be burned completely; it is not to be eaten.”
贖罪祭的條例
24耶和華曉諭摩西說:And the LORD said to Moses,
25「你對亞倫和他的子孫說,贖罪祭的條例乃是這樣:要在耶和華面前、宰燔祭牲的地方宰贖罪祭牲;這是至聖的。“Tell Aaron and his sons that this is the law of the sin offering: In the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, the sin offering shall be slaughtered before the LORD; it is most holy.
26為贖罪獻這祭的祭司要吃,要在聖處,就是在會幕的院子裡吃。The priest who offers it shall eat it; it must be eaten in a holy place, in the courtyard of the Tent of Meeting.
27凡摸這祭肉的要成為聖;這祭牲的血若彈在甚麼衣服上,所彈的那一件要在聖處洗淨。Anything that touches its flesh will become holy, and if any of the blood is spattered on a garment, you must wash it in a holy place.
28惟有煮祭物的要打碎;若是煮在銅器裡,這銅器要,在水中。The clay pot in which the sin offering is boiled must be broken; if it is boiled in a bronze pot, the pot must be scoured and rinsed with water.
29凡祭司中的男丁都可以吃;這是至聖的。Any male among the priests may eat it; it is most holy.
30凡贖罪祭,若將血帶進會幕在聖所贖罪,那肉都不可吃,必用火焚燒。」But no sin offering may be eaten if its blood has been brought into the Tent of Meeting to make atonement in the Holy Place; it must be burned.
利未記 第 7 章
贖愆祭的條例
1「贖愆祭的條例乃是如此:這祭是至聖的。“Now this is the law of the guilt offering, which is most holy:
2人在那裡宰燔祭牲,也要在那裡宰贖愆祭牲;其血,祭司要灑在壇的周圍。The guilt offering must be slaughtered in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, and the priest shall splatter its blood on all sides of the altar.
3又要將肥尾巴和蓋臟的脂油,And all the fat from it shall be offered: the fat tail, the fat that covers the entrails,
4兩個腰子和腰子上的脂油,就是靠腰兩旁的脂油,並肝上的網子和腰子,一概取下。both kidneys with the fat on them near the loins, and the lobe of the liver, which is to be removed with the kidneys.
5祭司要在壇上焚燒,為獻給耶和華的火祭,是贖愆祭。The priest shall burn them on the altar as a food offering to the LORD; it is a guilt offering.
6祭司中的男丁都可以吃這祭物;要在聖處吃,是至聖的。Every male among the priests may eat of it. It must be eaten in a holy place; it is most holy.
7贖罪祭怎樣,贖愆祭也是怎樣,兩個祭是一個條例。獻贖愆祭贖罪的祭司要得這祭物。The guilt offering is like the sin offering; the same law applies to both. It belongs to the priest who makes atonement with it.
祭司應得的分
8獻燔祭的祭司,無論為誰奉獻,要親自得他所獻那燔祭牲的皮。As for the priest who presents a burnt offering for anyone, the hide of that offering belongs to him.
9凡在爐中烤的素祭和煎盤中做的,並鐵鏊上做的,都要歸那獻祭的祭司。Likewise, every grain offering that is baked in an oven or cooked in a pan or on a griddle belongs to the priest who presents it,
10凡素祭,無論是油調和的是乾的,都要歸亞倫的子孫,大家均分。」and every grain offering, whether dry or mixed with oil, belongs equally to all the sons of Aaron.
平安祭的條例
11「人獻與耶和華平安祭的條例乃是這樣:Now this is the law of the peace offering that one may present to the LORD:
12他若為感謝獻上,就要用調油的無酵餅和抹油的無酵薄餅,並用油調勻細麵做的餅,與一同獻上。If he offers it in thanksgiving, then along with the sacrifice of thanksgiving he shall offer unleavened cakes mixed with olive oil, unleavened wafers coated with oil, and well-kneaded cakes of fine flour mixed with oil.
13要用有酵的餅和為感謝獻的平安祭,與供物一同獻上。Along with his peace offering of thanksgiving he is to present an offering with cakes of leavened bread.
14從各樣的供物中,他要把一個餅獻給耶和華為,是要歸給灑平安祭牲血的祭司。From the cakes he must present one portion of each offering as a contribution to the LORD. It belongs to the priest who sprinkles the blood of the peace offering.
15為感謝獻平安祭牲的肉,要在獻的日子吃,一點不可留到早晨。The meat of the sacrifice of his peace offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the day he offers it; none of it may be left until morning.
16若所獻的是為,或是甘心獻的,必在獻祭的日子吃,所剩下的第二天也可以吃。If, however, the sacrifice he offers is a vow or a freewill offering, it shall be eaten on the day he presents his sacrifice, but the remainder may be eaten on the next day.
17但所剩下的祭肉,到第三天要用火焚燒;But any meat of the sacrifice remaining until the third day must be burned up.
18第三天若吃了平安祭的肉,這祭必不蒙悅納,人所獻的也不算為祭,反為,吃這祭肉的,就必擔當他的罪孽。If any of the meat from his peace offering is eaten on the third day, it will not be accepted. It will not be credited to the one who presented it; it shall be an abomination, and the one who eats of it shall bear his iniquity.
不潔淨的人不可吃祭肉
19「挨了污穢物的肉就不可吃,要用火焚燒。至於平安祭的肉,凡潔淨的人都要吃;Meat that touches anything unclean must not be eaten; it is to be burned up. As for any other meat, anyone who is ceremonially clean may eat it.
20只是獻與耶和華平安祭的肉,人若不潔淨而吃了,這人必從民中。But if anyone who is unclean eats meat from the peace offering that belongs to the LORD, that person must be cut off from his people.
21有人摸了甚麼不潔淨的物,或是人的不潔淨,或是不潔淨的牲畜,或是不潔可憎之物,吃了獻與耶和華平安祭的肉,這人必從民中剪除。」If one touches anything unclean, whether human uncleanness, an unclean animal, or any unclean, detestable thing, and then eats any of the meat of the peace offering that belongs to the LORD, that person must be cut off from his people.”
脂油和血都不可吃
22耶和華對摩西說:Then the LORD said to Moses,
23「你曉諭以色列人說:牛的脂油、綿羊的脂油、山羊的脂油,你們都不可吃。“Speak to the Israelites and say, ‘You are not to eat any of the fat of an ox, a sheep, or a goat.
24和被野獸撕裂的,那脂油可以做別的使用,只是你們萬不可吃。The fat of an animal found dead or mauled by wild beasts may be used for any other purpose, but you must not eat it.
25無論何人吃了獻給耶和華當火祭牲畜的脂油,那人必從民中剪除。If anyone eats the fat of an animal from which a food offering may be presented to the LORD, the one who eats it must be cut off from his people.
26在你們一切的住處,無論是雀鳥的是野獸的血,你們都不可吃。You must not eat the blood of any bird or animal in any of your dwellings.
27無論是誰吃血,那人必從民中剪除。」If anyone eats blood, that person must be cut off from his people.’”
搖祭的胸和舉祭的腿歸祭司
28耶和華對摩西說:Then the LORD said to Moses,
29「你曉諭以色列人說:獻平安祭給耶和華的,要從平安祭中取些來奉給耶和華。“Speak to the Israelites and say, ‘Anyone who presents a peace offering to the LORD must bring it as his sacrifice to the LORD.
30他親手獻給耶和華的火祭,就是脂油和胸,要帶來,好把胸在耶和華面前作搖祭,搖一搖。With his own hands he is to bring the food offerings to the LORD; he shall bring the fat, together with the breast, and wave the breast as a wave offering before the LORD.
31祭司要把脂油在壇上焚燒,但胸要歸亞倫和他的子孫。The priest is to burn the fat on the altar, but the breast belongs to Aaron and his sons.
32你們要從平安祭中把作舉祭,奉給祭司。And you are to give the right thigh to the priest as a contribution from your peace offering.
33亞倫子孫中,獻平安祭牲血和脂油的,要得這右腿為分;The son of Aaron who presents the blood and fat of the peace offering shall have the right thigh as a portion.
34因為我從以色列人的平安祭中,取了這搖的胸和舉的腿給祭司亞倫和他子孫,作他們從以色列人中所永得的分。」I have taken from the sons of Israel the breast of the wave offering and the thigh of the contribution of their peace offerings, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and his sons as a permanent portion from the sons of Israel.’”
35這是從耶和華火祭中,作亞倫受膏的分和他子孫受膏的分,正在摩西(原文是他)叫他們前來給耶和華供祭司職分的日子,This is the portion of the food offerings to the LORD for Aaron and his sons since the day they were presented to serve the LORD as priests.
36就是在摩西(原文是他)膏他們的日子,耶和華吩咐以色列人給他們的。這是他們世世代代永得的分。On the day they were anointed, the LORD commanded that this be given them by the sons of Israel. It is a permanent portion for the generations to come.
各種祭的總結
37這就是燔祭、素祭、贖罪祭、贖愆祭,和平安祭的條例,並承接聖職的禮,This is the law of the burnt offering, the grain offering, the sin offering, the guilt offering, the ordination offering, and the peace offering,
38都是耶和華在西奈山所吩咐摩西的,就是他在西奈曠野吩咐以色列人獻供物給耶和華之日所說的。which the LORD gave Moses on Mount Sinai on the day He commanded the Israelites to present their offerings to the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai.
摘要
利未記六章8節至七章38節詳述燔祭、素祭、贖罪祭、贖愆祭與平安祭的具體條例,包括祭司執行各祭的程序、壇火不可熄滅的規定、祭物歸屬與食用方式。經文強調贖愆祭要求犯罪者如數歸還所虧負的並加上五分之一,而平安祭的肉有嚴格的食用時限與潔淨要求,違者必從民中剪除。這些條例顯明神對敬拜的聖潔要求,以及祭司在神與人之間的中保角色。
反思問題
- 壇上的火要常常燒著、不可熄滅,這提醒你在屬靈生活中需要持續維護什麼?
- 贖愆祭要求犯罪者歸還虧負並加上五分之一,這對你處理人際關係中的虧欠有什麼啟發?
- 這些獻祭條例反覆強調「至聖」與潔淨的要求,你如何在日常生活中活出分別為聖的態度?
新約馬太福音 27:27–56
前情提要
上回說到
昨天():耶穌被解去交給巡撫彼拉多。猶大後悔,把三十塊錢丟在殿裡,出去吊死了。彼拉多知道祭司長是出於嫉妒,連他的夫人都稱耶穌為「這義人」;但眾人喊著要釋放巴拉巴、把耶穌釘十字架,彼拉多就洗手,把耶穌交給人釘十字架。
今天你會讀到
兵丁戲弄耶穌,給祂穿朱紅色袍子、戴荊棘冠冕;古利奈人西門被勉強背十字架。在各各他,耶穌被釘十字架,路人、祭司長和同釘的強盜都譏誚祂。從午正到申初遍地黑暗,耶穌大聲喊叫,氣就斷了;殿裡的幔子裂為兩半,百夫長說「這真是 神的兒子了」。
閱讀小提示
留意 耶穌的呼喊「我的 神!我的 神!為甚麼離棄我?」,這是 的第一句。這篇詩從苦難的呼求開始,結尾卻是讚美和得勝的宣告。
點時代可看說明
傳統認為耶穌在逾越節期間的星期五被釘十字架;馬太記載從中午到下午三點左右遍地黑暗。
馬太福音 第 27 章
兵丁戲弄耶穌
27巡撫的兵就把耶穌帶進,叫都聚集在他那裡。Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole company around Him.
28他們給他脫了衣服,穿上一件,They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.
29用荊棘編做冠冕,戴在他頭上,拿一根葦子放在他右手裡,跪在他面前,戲弄他,說:「,猶太人的王啊!」And they twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on His head. They put a staff in His right hand, knelt down before Him, and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30又吐唾沫在他臉上,拿葦子打他的頭。Then they spit on Him and took the staff and struck Him on the head repeatedly.
31戲弄完了,就給他脫了袍子,仍穿上他自己的衣服,帶他出去,要釘十字架。After they had mocked Him, they removed the robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him away to crucify Him.
西門背十字架
32他們出來的時候,遇見一個人,名叫西門,就他同去,好背著耶穌的十字架。Along the way they found a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross of Jesus.
在各各他被釘十字架
33到了一個地方名叫,意思就是「」。And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means The Place of the Skull,
34兵丁拿調和的酒給耶穌喝。他嘗了,就不肯喝。they offered Him wine to drink, mixed with gall; but after tasting it, He refused to drink it.
35他們既將他釘在十字架上,就分他的衣服,When they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments by casting lots.
36又坐在那裡看守他。And sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.
37在他頭以上安一個牌子,寫著他的罪狀,說:「這是猶太人的王耶穌。」Above His head they posted the written charge against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
38當時,有兩個強盜和他同釘十字架,一個在右邊,一個在左邊。Two robbers were crucified with Him, one on His right and the other on His left.
眾人譏誚
39從那裡經過的人他,搖著頭,說:And those who passed by heaped abuse on Him, shaking their heads
40「你這拆毀聖殿、三日又建造起來的,可以救自己吧!你如果是 神的兒子,就從十字架上下來吧!」and saying, “You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
41祭司長和文士並長老也是這樣戲弄他,說:In the same way, the chief priests, scribes, and elders mocked Him, saying,
42「他救了別人,不能救自己。他是以色列的王,現在可以從十字架上下來,我們就信他。“He saved others, but He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel! Let Him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in Him.
43他倚靠 神, 神若喜悅他,現在可以救他;因為他曾說:『我是 神的兒子。』」He trusts in God. Let God deliver Him now if He wants Him. For He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
44那和他同釘的強盜也是這樣地譏誚他。In the same way, even the robbers who were crucified with Him berated Him.
遍地黑暗,耶穌呼喊
45從午正到申初,遍地都黑暗了。From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land.
46約在申初,耶穌大聲喊著說:「以利!以利!?」就是說:「我的 神!我的 神!為甚麼離棄我?」About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” which means, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
47站在那裡的人,有的聽見就說:「這個人呼叫以利亞呢!」When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He is calling Elijah.”
48內中有一個人趕緊跑去,拿蘸滿了醋,綁在葦子上,送給他喝。One of them quickly ran and brought a sponge. He filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed, and held it up for Jesus to drink.
49其餘的人說:「且等著,看以利亞來救他不來。」But the others said, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save Him.”
耶穌斷氣
50耶穌又大聲喊叫,。When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, He yielded up His spirit.
幔子裂開,地也震動
51忽然,殿裡的從上到下裂為兩半,地也震動,磐石也崩裂,At that moment the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth quaked, and the rocks were split.
52墳墓也開了,的身體多有起來的。The tombs broke open, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.
53到耶穌復活以後,他們從墳墓裡出來,進了聖城,向許多人顯現。After Jesus’ resurrection, when they had come out of the tombs, they entered the holy city and appeared to many people.
這真是神的兒子
54和一同看守耶穌的人看見地震並所經歷的事,就極其害怕,說:「這真是 神的兒子了!」When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified and said, “Truly this was the Son of God.”
婦女們遠遠觀看
55有好些婦女在那裡,遠遠地觀看;她們是從加利利跟隨耶穌來服事他的。And many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed Jesus from Galilee to minister to Him.
56內中有抹大拉的馬利亞,又有雅各和約西的母親馬利亞,並有西庇太兩個兒子的母親。Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee’s sons.
摘要
兵丁戲弄耶穌,給祂穿朱紅袍、戴荊棘冠冕,嘲諷祂為猶太人的王,隨後帶祂到各各他釘十字架。耶穌被釘時,路人、祭司長與同釘的強盜都譏誚祂,挑戰祂若是神的兒子就從十字架上下來。午正到申初遍地黑暗,耶穌大聲呼喊「我的神!我的神!為什麼離棄我?」後斷氣,殿裡幔子從上到下裂為兩半,百夫長驚呼「這真是神的兒子」,忠心跟隨的婦女們則遠遠觀看。
反思問題
- 耶穌面對嘲諷與極大痛苦時選擇沉默與順服,這對你在遭受不公對待時有什麼榜樣作用?
- 殿裡的幔子從上到下裂開,象徵人與神之間的阻隔被除去,這對你親近神的信心有什麼意義?
- 那些從加利利跟隨耶穌的婦女在十字架旁遠遠觀看、始終不離開,她們的忠心如何挑戰你在困難中對主的跟隨?
