And the king of the south shall be moved with choler, and shall come forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he shall set forth a great multitude; but the multitude shall be given into his hand. And when he hath taken away the multitude, his heart shall be lifted up; and he shall cast down many ten thousands: but he shall not be strengthened by it. Daniel 11:11, 12.
南方个王必大发忿怒,出来同伊交战,就是同北方个王交战;伊必陈设大军,军众却要交在伊手里。军众既被除去,伊心里就必自高;伊虽打倒千万多人,却弗能因之得坚强。Daniel 11:11, 12.
Verses eleven and twelve identifies the victory of Putin over the Ukraine and the European Union and the aftermath and fallout for Putin after his victory in the Ukrainian War as represented by Ptolemy in his victory at Raphia in 217 BC and his demise in verse twelve. The theme in the verses is the rise and fall of the king of the south.
第十一、十二節指出:普京戰勝烏克蘭佮歐洲聯盟,以及伊喺烏克蘭戰爭得勝以後所遭受个後果佮餘波;此乃由托勒密於公元前217年喺拉菲亞戰役个勝利,以及第十二節當中伊个敗亡所表徵。此數節个主題,乃是南方王个興起佮衰落。
Up to this point the articles have been identifying the basic themes of the prophetic lines of chapter eleven. Verse eleven needs a little more time before we move forward in the chapter. Daniel eleven, verse eleven aligns with Revelation eleven verse eleven.
到此为止,前头个文章一直㑚勒识别《但以理书》第十一章预言各条线索个基本主题。《但以理书》第十一章第十一节,还需要再多费一点工夫,然后阿拉再继续往下推进本章。《但以理书》十一章十一节,和《启示录》十一章十一节是相互对应个。
And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. Revelation 11:11.
過了三日半,對上帝而來个生命之靈進入伊拉裡向,伊拉就立起來,站勒自家脚根浪;看見伊拉个人,心裡就起了大驚。啟示錄 11:11。
In 2023, the two witnesses who had been slain by the beast from the bottomless pit stood upon their feet. The witness of the Republican horn had begun in 2015 with Donald Trump’s announcement to run for the presidency and in 2020 the dragon, represented by the globalists in the world, and the globalists that are the Democratic party in conjunction with the globalists of the Republican party (RINO’s) stole the election and installed Joe Biden, thus slaying Donald Trump in the street. The Protestant horn represented by the ministry Future for America was slain through propagating an erroneous prediction describing an attack by Islam against Nashville. In 2023, both the Republican and Protestant horns were resurrected. Verse eleven identifies the beginning of the Ukrainian War in 2014 onward through the ultimate victory of Putin and Russia.
到二〇二三年,两个曾经拨无底坑里上来个兽所杀个见证人,侪立起了脚。共和党个角个见证,是从二〇一五年唐纳德·特朗普宣布参选总统开始个;到二〇二〇年,龙——也就是世上个全球主义者——并且作为民主党个全球主义者,联合共和党里个全球主义者(RINO’s),偷窃了选举,立约瑟夫·拜登上台;因此,唐纳德·特朗普拨杀脱勒街上。新教个角,由事工 Future for America 所代表,因为传播了一项错误个预言,讲伊斯兰会攻击纳什维尔,所以也拨杀脱。到二〇二三年,共和党跟新教个两个角,侪复活了。第十一节指出:乌克兰战争自二〇一四年开始,直至普京与俄罗斯最终得胜。
Verse eleven is the visual test which culminates at judgment for Adventism in general, but also for those who have accepted the light of 9/11 and the arrival of the third woe, but primarily it is for those who will be held accountable to the light of prophecy that was unsealed progressively since July of 2023.
第十一節乃是一項見於異象个試驗,為復臨運動整體在審判時所達至个總結;亦是為著那些已接受九一一之亮光並第三樣災禍來到个人;但主要還是為著那些要對自二〇二三年七月以來漸次開啟之預言亮光負責个人。
The leadership of Adventism was passed by in 1989, as typified by the birth of Christ in that prophetic period. At Christ’s baptism He began to call the disciples who were “the foundation” of the Christian Church, thus typifying 9/11, when with the arrival of Islam of the third woe the Lord led His people back to Jeremiah’s old paths, which represent the foundations of Adventism. On 9/11 the judgment of the living began with the house of God, and Adventism rejected the light of the angel of Revelation eighteen as certainly as the Jews rejected Jesus as the Messiah. Those who accepted the light of the angel of Revelation eighteen were then tested by the disappointment of July 18, 2020.
基督復臨安息日會个領導權,喺一九八九年畀主越過咾;此事,正如喺該段預言時期當中基督个降生所預表个一樣。到基督受洗个辰光,伊就開始呼召門徒;此等門徒乃基督教會个「根基」,從而預表九一一——彼時,隨住第三樣災禍个伊斯蘭來到,主引領伊个百姓轉回耶利米所講个古道,而該古道正代表基督復臨安息日會个根基。喺九一一,活人个審判自神个家起首;而基督復臨安息日會棄絕《啟示錄》第十八章天使个亮光,正如猶太人棄絕耶穌為彌賽亞一樣確定無疑。凡接受《啟示錄》第十八章天使亮光个人,後來就受著二〇二〇年七月十八日失望个試驗。
In July of 2023, the light of Daniel eleven, verse eleven identifies the external line of present truth. That light of external prophetic fulfillment found in verse eleven of Daniel eleven was opened up to the resurrected virgins in verse eleven of Revelation chapter eleven. Revelation identifies the internal history that Daniel opens up as the external history.
2023年七月,〈但以理書〉十一章十一節个亮光指出現今真理个外在線。著落勒〈但以理書〉十一章十一節、關乎外在預言應驗个該個亮光,向〈啟示錄〉十一章十一節裡向復活个童女開明出來。〈啟示錄〉指出〈但以理書〉所打開、作為外在歷史个內在歷史。
Those who have considered the light that was opened up beginning in July of 2023 represent two distinct classes, for there have already been those who once walked together after July, 2023 who no longer walk together. The judgment is progressive and beginning at 9/11 the Seventh-day Adventist church was given “time to repent” of her rejection of the “rules of prophetic interpretation adopted by Miller and his associates,” which they have progressively rejected beginning in 1863. Beginning at 9/11 until July 18, 2020 the Seventh-day Adventist church was given its final opportunity to repent, and at that point those who had participated in the 2020 Nashville proclamation were tested. In July, the final phase of purification is represented by verses eleven of chapters eleven in the books of Daniel and the Revelation.
凡思量自2023年7月起所开启之亮光者,乃表明两班截然有别之人;盖因自2023年7月以后,早已有从前曾同行者,如今已不复同行。审判乃渐进而行,自9/11起,基督复临安息日会蒙赐“悔改的时间”,使其就她弃绝“米勒并其同工所采纳之预言解释规则”而悔改;而彼等对此等规则之弃绝,自1863年起即渐次而行。自9/11起,直到2020年7月18日,基督复临安息日会得其最终悔改之机会;至彼时,凡曾参与2020年纳什维尔宣告者,皆受试验。至7月,洁净之最终阶段,乃由《但以理书》与《启示录》第十一章第十一节所表征。
It is in this testing process that the second of three tests is accomplished. The second test is a visual test, that is preceded by a test of appetite and that concludes with the third test, which unlike the prior two tests is a litmus test. When the virgins awake at Midnight to the call “Behold the Bridegroom cometh,” one class has the necessary oil and the other is lost. The Millerites fulfilled this very experience and in so doing they manifested an understanding of both an external and internal line of prophecy.
就勒个试炼个过程里,三重试验当中个第二重得以成就。第二重试验乃是一重视觉个试验;伊前头有一重食欲个试验,后头以第三重试验作结束;而第三重试验搭前两重弗同,乃是一重试纸式个试验。当童女们半夜醒转,听见呼声说:“看哪,新郎来哉,”一等人有其所必需个油,另一等却失落了。米勒派正应验了这一番经历,并且借此显明了伊拉对于预言之外在线同内在线两者个领会。
When they proclaimed the second angel’s message by identifying the fallen Protestant churches as the daughters of Babylon, they were proclaiming a message that was external to their experience. In order to proclaim the message of the Midnight Cry they first needed to see themselves as the virgins who had been in a tarrying time. In verse eleven of both Daniel and the Revelation chapter eleven the internal and external messages were opened up as present truth since July of 2023.
当伊拉众传扬第二位天使个信息、认明已经堕落个新教诸教会是巴比伦个囡儿辰光,伊拉所传扬个,是一个外在于伊拉经历个信息。若要传扬半夜喊叫个信息,伊拉首先必须看见自家就是那些曾经处于耽延时期个童女。自二〇二三年七月以来,《但以理书》第十一章搭《启示录》第十一章个第十一节里向,内在搭外在个信息,作为现代真理,已经得着开启。
In chapter one of Daniel, the second and visual test was when they found Daniel and the three worthies countenances fairer and fatter in “appearance” than those who ate the Babylonian fare. In chapter two the visual test is represented as a prophetic test that demands to correctly interpret a hidden message that is ultimately shown to be the image of the kingdoms of Bible prophecy. Chapters one, two and three of Daniel represent the first, second and third angels of Revelation fourteen.
《但以理書》第一章裡,第二道並且屬於可見个試驗,係當人發見但以理同三位忠勇之人个面貌,比食巴比倫王膳个人「外觀」更加俊美肥健。到第二章,呢道可見个試驗就表現做一種先知性个試驗,要求人正確解明一個隱藏个信息;到末後,呢信息顯明出來,原來就係《聖經》預言裡列國个像。 《但以理書》第一、第二同第三章,代表《啟示錄》第十四章个第一、第二同第三位天使。
The second angel of Revelation fourteen addresses the external message of the Millerite history, and chapter two of Daniel also addresses the external line with the image of the beasts of prophetic history. The visual test in chapter one was based upon Daniel and the three worthies, and is therefore the internal line. The external and internal lines of prophecy represented with the parallel of Daniel chapters one through three with the three angels of Revelation fourteen, produce another witness to the second angels’ message as fulfilled by the Millerites.
《啟示錄》第十四章个第二位天使所針對个,是米勒派歷史个外在線路;《但以理書》第二章亦藉着預言歷史中諸獸个像,論及外在个線路。第一章个視覺試驗,是根據但以理同三位義士,所以乃屬內在線路。將《但以理書》第一至第三章同《啟示錄》第十四章三位天使相互平行,所表明个預言外在與內在線路,便生出另一個見證,證明第二位天使个信息已在米勒派身上得着應驗。
The Millerites proclaimed both an external and internal message when they fulfilled the proclamation of the Midnight Cry. Their external message was the second angel of Revelation fourteen, thus directly tying the Millerite’s message with the second angel and the image of Daniel two. The image represents the external kingdoms of Bible prophecy from literal Babylon unto modern Babylon that comes to its end at the close of human probation. The Millerites connect again with the external message of Babylon. Daniel’s visual test was based upon the diet which he chose to eat, and the first angel of Revelation ten who came down and placed one foot on the earth and the other on the sea had a little book open, which John was commanded to eat. The first angel is represented by appetite and is followed by a visual test. The visual test includes and internal and external line of truth.
米勒派人喺应验“半夜呼声”之宣告个辰光,同时传扬了一则外在个信息并一则内在个信息。伊拉个外在信息,就是《启示录》第十四章个第二位天使;故此,米勒派个信息就直接同第二位天使以及《但以理书》第二章个像联结起来。该像表征《圣经》预言里个外在列国,自字义个巴比伦直到现代个巴比伦;此巴比伦要喺人类恩典时期终结个时刻走到末了。米勒派再次同巴比伦个外在信息相联结。《但以理》个视觉试验,系建立喺伊所拣选要吃个饮食之上;而《启示录》第十章个第一位天使,降下来,一只脚踏喺地上,另一只脚踏喺海上,手里有一本展开个小书,约翰受命要吃下去。第一位天使乃由食欲所表征,其后随之而来个就是一个视觉试验。此视觉试验包含一条内在个真理线,也包含一条外在个真理线。
Verse eleven of Daniel eleven, in parallel with verse eleven of Revelation eleven represents the two-fold visual test. The test concludes at the litmus test, when the virgins manifest whether they have the oil or not. That manifestation occurs just before the close of probation at the Sunday law in the United States. The close of probation at the Sunday law was typified by October 22, 1844. Just before October 22, 1844 on August 17, 1844 the Millerites carried the message like a tidal wave across the eastern seaboard of the United States.
《但以理書》第十一章第十一節,與《啟示錄》第十一章第十一節相對應,表明箇雙重个視覺試驗。該試驗喺試金石个考驗處告終;彼時,童女顯明伊拉到底有油抑無油。該種顯明發生喺美國星期日法案所標誌个恩典時期結束之前一息。星期日法案之時个恩典時期結束,乃由一八四四年十月二十二日所預表。喺一八四四年十月二十二日之前弗久,就是一八四四年八月十七日,米勒派將該信息有如怒潮一般,傳遍美國東部海岸。
1989 is the time of the end when the book of Daniel was unsealed and when the book of Daniel is unsealed there is always an increase of knowledge which produces two classes of worshippers. 1989 is the first of those three testing waymarks as typified by the arrival of the first angel in 1798. When the first angel descended on August 11, 1840 he typified the angel of Revelation eighteen descending on 9/11. The first disappointment of Millerite history marked the arrival of the second angel and typified July 18, 2020, and the beginning of the tarrying time. The Millerites progressively awakened to the message of the second angel and that they were the virgins in the parable of the ten virgins. They were fully awakened at the Exeter camp meeting in August of 1844. The one hundred and forty-four thousand were awakened in July 2023 when the message of the Midnight Cry began to be progressively unsealed.
1989年是末了辰光,彼辰《但以理书》得着开封;《但以理书》一开封,知识总归要增多,并且生发出两等敬拜者。1989年是三个试验路标当中头一个,正如1798年头一个天使来到所预表个一样。1840年8月11日,头一个天使降临,彼是预表《启示录》第十八章个天使于9/11降临。米勒派历史里头一回失望,标明第二个天使个来到,并且预表2020年7月18日,以及迟延时期个起头。米勒派逐步醒悟到第二个天使个信息,也醒悟到伊拉就是十个童女比喻里个童女。到1844年8月埃克塞特营会辰光,伊拉已经完全醒转。一十四万四千人在2023年7月醒转,因为半夜呼声个信息开始逐步得着开封。
The tarrying time ended for the Millerites at Exeter, just as it ended for the family of Lazarus when Jesus resurrected Lazarus to become the crowning act of Christ ministry, when Lazarus became the “seal” of His ministry. Lazarus resurrection marks the end of the tarrying time, and the sealing of God’s people. The Triumphal Entry that followed typified the proclamation of the Midnight Cry message in Millerite history. The theme of verse eleven of Daniel chapter eleven is the rise and fall of the king of the south and it leads to the battle of Panium in verses thirteen to fifteen. Those verses are the litmus test where the seal is placed upon the foreheads of the men and women who are to be lifted up as an ensign in verse sixteen.
对米勒派而言,迟延的时期在埃克塞特结束了,正如对拉撒路一家而言,当耶稣使拉撒路复活,使这件事成为基督职事的冠冕之举、并且当拉撒路成为祂职事的“印记”之时,那迟延的时期也结束了一样。拉撒路的复活标志着迟延时期的终结,也标志着上帝子民受印的完成。其后随之而来的荣耀进入,乃是米勒派历史中午夜呼声信息之宣告的预表。〈但以理书〉第十一章的主题,乃是南方王的兴起与倾覆,并且这引向第十三至十五节中的帕尼乌姆之战。那些经文乃是试金石;在那里,印要盖在那些男人与女人的额上,他们将在第十六节中被高举起来,作为旌旗。
Verse fifteen was fulfilled at the Battle of Panium which aligns with Christ’s visit to Caesarea Philippi. There at Caesarea Philippi Christ turned Simon Barjonah’s name unto Peter marking the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. From then on the light of the soon-coming cross was opened up to the disciples. When Christ changed Simon’s name to Peter just before the cross, it aligned with the litmus test of Exeter and Lazarus leading the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. The Exeter camp meeting from the 12th to the 17th of August represents the final settling into the truth before the shaking that is the earthquake of the Sunday law in chapters eleven of Daniel and Revelation.
第十五節應驗於帕尼翁之戰,箇場戰事同基督造訪該撒利亞腓立比相對應。勒該撒利亞腓立比,基督將西門巴約拿个名字改做彼得,標明十四萬四千人受印个事。自彼辰起,將臨十字架个光向門徒開明。基督勒十字架以前、將西門个名字改做彼得个辰光,佢同 Exeter 同拉撒路个試金石相對應,並引向榮耀進入耶路撒冷。八月十二號到十七號个 Exeter 營會,表明但以理同啟示錄第十一章所講、就是主日法地震个搖動來到以前,對真理最後个安定。
“The work in Battle Creek is after the same order. The leaders in the sanitarium have mingled with unbelievers, admitting them to their councils, more or less, but it is like going to work with their eyes shut. They lack the discernment to see what is going to break upon us at any time. There is a spirit of desperation, of war and bloodshed, and that spirit will increase until the very close of time. Just as soon as the people of God are sealed in their foreheads—it is not any seal or mark that can be seen, but a settling into the truth, both intellectually and spiritually, so they cannot be moved—just as soon as God’s people are sealed and prepared for the shaking, it will come. Indeed, it has begun already. The judgments of God are now upon the land, to give us warning, that we may know what is coming.” Manuscript Releases, volume 10, 252.
巴特爾溪个工作也是照样个一路。療養院个領袖已經摻雜了弗信个人,或多或少准伊拉參預伊拉个議事;只是迭种做法,正像閉牢雙眼去做工一樣。伊拉欠缺分辨力,看弗出隨便啥辰光會有啥事臨到阿拉。現今有一種絕望、戰爭同流血个靈;迭個靈還要一直增長,直到時代个極終。上帝个子民額角上一受印——迭並弗是啥看得見个印記抑是號記,乃是於真理之中,無論按着悟性抑是按着靈性,都得着堅定安立,致使伊拉弗能再被搖動——上帝个子民一受印,一預備好去經歷震動,震動就要來。其實,伊已經開始了。上帝个審判現今正在臨到迭塊土地,為着警戒阿拉,叫阿拉曉得將要來个是啥。 《文稿發表》卷十,252。
The sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand was represented by the Exeter camp meeting, Christ changing Simon’s name to Peter and the resurrection of Lazarus. That resurrection typifies the resurrection of the two witnesses in Revelation chapter eleven. Verses ten through sixteen represent the hidden history of verse forty. The unsealing of the hidden history of verse forty began within the historical fulfillment of verse eleven and the Ukrainian war. From July of 2023 that hidden history has been in the process of being unsealed by the Lion of the tribe of Judah.
十四万四千人个受印,借着埃克塞特营会、基督将西门个名字改作彼得,并拉撒路个复活来表明。该个复活,预表《启示录》第十一章里向两位见证人个复活。第十节到第十六节,表明第四十节个隐藏历史。第四十节之隐藏历史个开印,开始于第十一节并乌克兰战争个历史应验之中。自二〇二三年七月起,该个隐藏历史一直处于由犹大支派个狮子所开印个过程之中。
When the candidates to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand were resurrected in verse eleven of Revelation chapter eleven the visual prophetic test that must be passed before probation closes at the Sunday law, which Sister White identifies as the test of the image of the beast, began.
當啟示錄第十一章第十一節裡,欲列入十四萬四千人之候選者復活個辰光,主日法之時恩典時期終結以前所必須通過個可見先知性試驗——懷愛倫姊妹認明此試驗就是獸像個試驗——便開始了。
“The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. Your position is such a jumble of inconsistencies that but few will be deceived.
「主清清爽爽向我顯明,獸个像會勒恩典時期結束之前形成;因為伊要成為上帝子民个重大試驗,藉此決定𠊎等永遠个命運。儂个立場是許般雜亂、前後矛盾,致使受迷惑个人只會有極少數。」
“In Revelation 13 this subject is plainly presented; [Revelation 13:11–17, quoted].
「勒《啟示錄》第十三章裡,此項題目分明顯明出來;[《啟示錄》13:11–17,引文。]」
“This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed. All who proved their loyalty to God by observing His law, and refusing to accept a spurious sabbath, will rank under the banner of the Lord God Jehovah, and will receive the seal of the living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and accept the Sunday sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.
“迭个就系上帝个百姓受印以前所必须经过个试验。凡系遵守上帝个律法、弗肯接受一个伪造个安息日,借此证明伊拉对上帝忠诚个人,都要归列勒主上帝耶和华个旌旗下头,并且要领受永生上帝个印记。凡系放弃从天上来个真理、接受礼拜日安息日个人,都要领受兽个印记。”《Manuscript Releases》,第15卷,15。
The external line of prophecy is unsealed in the history of verse eleven of Daniel eleven and the internal line is unsealed in Revelation chapter eleven verse eleven. The external line identifies how the image of the beast, which represents the combination of church and state with the church in control of the relationship is formed during the period of the judgment of the living. The internal line identifies how the image of Christ which represents a combination of divinity with humanity is formed during the judgment of the living.
外在线个预言,㑚《但以理书》第十一章第十一节个历史当中得着开启;内在线个预言,㑚《启示录》第十一章第十一节当中得着开启。外在线表明,兽个像——其所代表者,乃教会搭国家相结合,而于此关系当中由教会执掌主权——是怎样勒活人审判个时期当中形成个。内在线表明,基督个像——其所代表者,乃神性搭人性相结合——是怎样勒活人审判个时期当中形成个。
The reform movement of the third angel and the one hundred and forty-four thousand began at the time of the end in 1989 as represented in verse ten of Daniel eleven. The perfect fulfillment of Daniel chapter twelve then began.
第三位天使同一十四萬四千人个改良運動,喺末時辰一九八九年開始,正如《但以理書》第十一章第十節所表明个。嗰辰光,《但以理書》第十二章个完全應驗就開始了。
And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. Daniel 12:9, 10.
伊讲,丹以理啊,侬只管去罢;因为迭个话语要关闭封住,直到末了个辰光。许多人必得洁净,成为雪白,也要受试炼;不过恶人仍旧行恶:恶人当中一个也勿会明白;惟有智慧个人会明白。丹以理书 12:9, 10.
Verse ten of chapter eleven represents the beginning of a “purification process” that is represented by the first angel as fearing God. Verses eleven and twelve represent where the one hundred and forty-four thousand are made white. The book of Zechariah identifies that experience.
十一章第十節表明一個「潔淨過程」个起頭,該過程由頭一位天使以敬畏上帝來表徵。第十一節搭第十二節表明十四萬四千人得著潔白个所在。《撒迦利亞書》指出了該個經歷。
And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel. And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment. And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the Lord stood by. Zechariah 3:1–5.
伊又指示我看见大祭司约书亚,立勒耶和华个使者面前;撒但立勒伊个右边,要敌挡伊。耶和华对撒但讲:“撒但哪,耶和华责备侬;拣选耶路撒冷个耶和华责备侬;箇个勿是一根从火里抽出来个柴吗?”约书亚身穿污秽个衣裳,立勒使者面前。使者应声,对立勒伊面前个人讲:“替伊脱去箇污秽个衣裳。”又对伊讲:“看哪,我已经使侬个罪孽离开侬,我也要替侬穿上华美个衣裳。”我讲:“要替伊头浪戴一顶洁净个冠冕。”伊拉就替伊头浪戴了一顶洁净个冠冕,替伊穿上衣裳;耶和华个使者立勒旁边。撒迦利亚书 3:1–5。
This passage is fulfilled in the final work of Christ as the High Priest and represents the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand.
此段經文應驗於基督作爲大祭司个末後工作,並表明對十四萬四千人个印封。
“Zechariah’s vision of Joshua and the Angel applies with peculiar force to the experience of God’s people in the closing scenes of the great day of atonement. The remnant church will then be brought into great trial and distress. Those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus will feel the ire of the dragon and his hosts. Satan numbers the world as his subjects; he has gained control even of many professing Christians. But here is a little company who are resisting his supremacy. If he could blot them from the earth, his triumph would be complete. As he influenced the heathen nations to destroy Israel, so in the near future he will stir up the wicked powers of earth to destroy the people of God. Men will be required to render obedience to human edicts in violation of the divine law.” Prophets and Kings, 587.
「撒迦利亞所見約書亞同天使个異象,對於上帝子民喺贖罪大日將收尾个景象當中个經歷,有特別強烈个應用。到辰光,餘民教會會被帶進極大个試煉搭苦難裡向。凡遵守上帝誡命、並守耶穌真道个人,會感受到龍及其黨羽个忿怒。撒但將世界算作伊个臣民;連許多自稱基督徒个人,也已被伊奪去控制。毋過,喺此地有一小群人,正喺抵擋伊个霸權。若是伊能將渠等從地上塗抹淨盡,伊个得勝就要完全。正如伊曾影響外邦列國來毀滅以色列,照樣,喺將近个未來,伊也會煽動地上邪惡个勢力去毀滅上帝个子民。人會被要求服從人間个法令,以致違犯上帝个律法。」《先知與君王》,587。
The “closing scenes of the great day of atonement” is the sealing of first the one hundred and forty-four thousand which is followed thereafter with the sealing of God’s other children wo are currently in Babylon.
「贖罪大日」个「末了場景」,就是起先對十四萬四千人个印封;其後,緊接牢,對上帝其餘今朝還勒巴比倫裡向个囝兒進行印封。
“As the people of God afflict their souls before Him, pleading for purity of heart, the command is given, ‘Take away the filthy garments,’ and the encouraging words are spoken, ‘Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.’ Zechariah 3:4. The spotless robe of Christ’s righteousness is placed upon the tried, tempted, faithful children of God. The despised remnant are clothed in glorious apparel, nevermore to be defiled by the corruptions of the world. Their names are retained in the Lamb’s book of life, enrolled among the faithful of all ages. They have resisted the wiles of the deceiver; they have not been turned from their loyalty by the dragon’s roar. Now they are eternally secure from the tempter’s devices. Their sins are transferred to the originator of sin. A ‘fair miter’ is set upon their heads.
“當上帝个百姓㧻伊面前苦待自家个心靈、懇求心裏清潔个辰光,命令就發出:『褪脫嗰污穢个衣裳。』並且有安慰个話講出來:『看哪,我使儂个罪孽離開儂;我要予儂着上華美个衣裳。』撒迦利亞書 3:4。基督公義个無玷衣袍,加勒喺受過試煉、受過誘惑、總歸忠信个上帝兒女身上。嗰啲受人藐視个餘民,着上榮耀个禮服,再也勿會受世界敗壞所玷污。伊拉个名號存留喺羔羊个生命冊上,登記喺歷世歷代一切忠信之人當中。伊拉曾抵擋迷惑者个詭計;伊拉勿曾因龍个吼叫就離開忠誠。如今伊拉永永遠遠脫離試探者个機關,得着穩妥。伊拉个罪轉歸喺罪恶个創始者身上。伊拉个頭上戴起一頂『華美个冠冕。』”
“While Satan has been urging his accusations, holy angels, unseen, have been passing to and fro, placing upon the faithful ones the seal of the living God. These are they that stand upon Mount Zion with the Lamb, having the Father’s name written in their foreheads. They sing the new song before the throne, that song which no man can learn save the hundred and forty and four thousand which were redeemed from the earth. ‘These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever He goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the first fruits unto God and to the Lamb. And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.’ Revelation 14:4, 5.
「當撒但一逕催逼伊个控告辰光,聖天使——人看弗着个——一直來來往往,將永生上帝个印記蓋勒忠信个人身上。此等人就是徛勒錫安山頂、同羔羊一道个,伊拉額角上寫着父个名。伊拉勒寶座前唱新歌;此歌除開從地上贖轉來个十四萬四千人以外,無一儕學得會。『此等人就是無論羔羊往何處去,伊拉總跟隨伊个人。此等人是從人中間贖出來个,做獻與上帝並羔羊个初熟果子。伊拉口中查弗出詭詐;因為伊拉勒上帝寶座前是無瑕疵个。』啟示錄 14:4, 5。」
“Now is reached the complete fulfillment of the words of the Angel: ‘Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth My Servant the Branch.’ Zechariah 3:8. Christ is revealed as the Redeemer and Deliverer of His people. Now indeed are the remnant ‘men wondered at,’ as the tears and humiliation of their pilgrimage give place to joy and honor in the presence of God and the Lamb. ‘In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel. And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even everyone that is written among the living in Jerusalem.’ Isaiah 4:2, 3.” Prophets and Kings, 591, 592.
“到此,天使个话语已完全应验:‘大祭司约书亚啊,现今侬当听;还有坐勒侬面前个同伴,也当听:因为伊拉是可惊异个人;因为看哪,我要使我个仆人,大卫个苗裔,生发出来。’撒迦利亚 3:8。基督今朝显明为伊子民个救赎主搭拯救者。此时,余民的确是‘可惊异个人,’因为伊拉朝圣旅途里个眼泪搭屈辱,现今让位于勒上帝搭羔羊面前个喜乐搭尊荣。‘到那日,耶和华发生个苗,必华美尊荣,地个出产,必为以色列逃脱个人显为荣华茂盛。主必将锡安女子个污秽洗去,又将耶路撒冷中杀人个血除净。那时,留勒锡安、剩勒耶路撒冷个人,就是一切住耶路撒冷、勒生命册上记名个人,必称为圣。’以赛亚书 4:2, 3。”《先知与君王》,591, 592。
The sealing is the second step of Daniel’s “purified, made white and tried.” Verses eleven and twelve identify the final rise and fall of Russia, the prophetic king of the south which precedes the Battle of Panium in verses thirteen through fifteen. When the one hundred and forty-four thousand have their filthy garments removed by Christ in the closing scenes of the great day of atonement, they receive a “fair miter,” which is Daniel’s promotion to the third ruler, along with the scarlet robe and the golden chain. That is also Joseph’s gift of the golden chain, his promotion to the second ruler and the gift of the king’s ring. The “ring” represents the royal seal which a ruler used to impress his laws with the royal seal.
封印是但以理所讲个“洁净、漂白、受试炼”个第二步。第十一节搭第十二节指出俄罗斯个末后兴起搭倾倒;俄罗斯就是预言里向个南方王,而伊个兴衰是在第十三节到第十五节所讲个帕尼乌姆之战以前。迭一十四万四千人勒大赎罪日将尽个场景当中,由基督替伊拉除去污秽个衣裳辰光,伊拉就领受“一顶华美个冠冕”;迭就是但以理被擢升为第三位掌权者,连同朱红袍搭金链一淘赐下。迭也就是约瑟所得个金链,是伊被擢升为第二位掌权者,并领受王个戒指。迭个“戒指”表明王家个印玺,就是掌权者用来将王家印玺盖勒自家律法之上个印记。
Darius used his signet to seal the pit where Daniel was placed among the lions.
大利烏用伊个璽印封牢關但以理擺勒獅子當中个坑。
Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spake and said unto Daniel, Thy God whom thou servest continually, he will deliver thee. And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed concerning Daniel. Daniel 6:16, 17.
介辰,王下令,伊拉就拨但以理带来,抛进狮子坑里。王对但以理讲:“侬所常常事奉个上帝,伊必拯救侬。” 有一块石头搬来,搁勒坑口浪;王用自家个印,连同伊大臣个印,封牢伊,好叫关乎但以理个事勿得更改。Daniel 6:16, 17.
The Hebrew word translated as “signet” is H5824 in Strongs, and it is derived from a root word corresponding to H5823; meaning a signet ring (as engraved). Joshua before the angel, Daniel in the lion’s den, Joseph before Pharaoh represent the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand, which is the second test in Daniel twelve where those who have been purified, are then “made white,” in advance of being “tried.” These lines are also represented by “ Zerubbabel,” “the son of Shealtiel.”
譯做「印」个希伯來字,係 Strongs 編號 H5824,伊係出自一隻對應 H5823 个字根;意思係印戒(照其所刻个印記而言)。約書亞立勒天使面前、但以理勒獅子坑裡、約瑟立勒法老面前,攏表明十四萬四千人个蓋印;此乃《但以理書》第十二章裡个第二番試驗,彼些已經得著潔淨个人,接下來便「變白」,在「受試煉」以前。這幾條線也由「所羅巴伯」、「撒拉鐵个兒子」來表明。
In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the Lord, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the Lord of hosts. Haggai 2:23.
萬軍个耶和華講:「到該日,我必提拔儂,我个僕人撒拉鐵个囝所羅巴伯,」耶和華講,「使儂成爲印戒;因爲我揀選了儂。」這是萬軍个耶和華講个。哈該書 2:23。
Zerubbabel means offspring of Babylon, and his father was Shealtiel, meaning “asked of God.” Zerubbabel represents the second angel’s message which calls the offspring of Babylon into God’s flock in the last days. The element of “prayer” is associated with the one hundred and forty-four thousand who call the final offspring of Babylon out, for that revival only occurs with prayer.
所羅巴伯个意思是巴比倫个後裔,伊个父親是撒拉鐵,意思是「向上帝求來个」。所羅巴伯代表第二位天使个信息,佢呼召巴比倫个後裔,在末後个日子歸入上帝个羊群。「祈禱」个要素,是跟那十四萬四千相聯繫个;佢拉呼叫巴比倫末了个後裔出來,因為該場復興唯有藉著祈禱纔會發生。
“A revival of true godliness among us is the greatest and most urgent of all our needs. To seek this should be our first work. There must be earnest effort to obtain the blessing of the Lord, not because God is not willing to bestow His blessing upon us, but because we are unprepared to receive it. Our heavenly Father is more willing to give His Holy Spirit to them that ask Him, than are earthly parents to give good gifts to their children. But it is our work, by confession, humiliation, repentance, and earnest prayer, to fulfill the conditions upon which God has promised to grant us His blessing. A revival need be expected only in answer to prayer. While the people are so destitute of God’s Holy spirit, they cannot appreciate the preaching of the Word; but when the Spirit’s power touches their hearts, then the discourses given will not be without effect. Guided by the teachings of God’s Word, with the manifestation of His Spirit, in the exercise of sound discretion, those who attend our meetings will gain a precious experience, and returning home, will be prepared to exert a healthful influence.
“㑚拉当中眞正敬虔个复兴,系㑚拉一切需要当中顶大、也顶紧要个一样。寻求者件事,应当做为㑚拉头一桩工夫。必须有恳切个努力,来得着主个赐福;弗是因为上帝弗肯将伊个福气赐拨㑚拉,乃是因为㑚拉还弗曾豫备好去领受。㑚拉天上个父,比起地上个父母肯将好东西赐拨自家个儿女,更加愿意将伊个圣灵赐拨求伊个人。然而,借着认罪、自卑、悔改并恳切个祷告,去成全上帝所应许赐福拨㑚拉所定个条件,乃是㑚拉应当做个工夫。复兴只可望于祷告个应允。百姓若还恁般缺乏上帝个圣灵,伊拉就弗能赏识圣道个宣讲;但当圣灵个能力摸着伊拉个心辰,所传讲个道理就弗会无效。若照上帝圣言个教训来引导,又有伊个圣灵显明出来,并且运用健全个见识,凡赴㑚拉聚会个人,必得着宝贵个经历;等伊拉归回自家屋里,就要豫备好去发挥一种有益健康个感化。”
“The old standard bearers knew what it was to wrestle with God in prayer, and to enjoy the outpouring of His Spirit. But these are passing off from the stage of action; and who are coming up to fill their places? How is it with the rising generation? Are they converted to God? Are we awake to the work that is going on in the heavenly sanctuary, or are we waiting for some compelling power to come upon the church before we shall arouse? Are we hoping to see the whole church revived? That time will never come.
“老早个旗手晓得勒祷告里向上帝摔跤是啥个意思,也晓得享受伊个灵个浇灌。勿过,这些人正从行动个场所浪向退落;啥人会兴起来补伊拉个位子?后起个一代景况哪能?伊拉归向上帝了无没?阿拉对天上圣所里现在进行个工作是勿是警醒,抑或阿拉正等候有一种强制个能力临到教会,随后阿拉才肯奋兴起来?阿拉是勿是在指望看见全教会复兴?该个辰光永远勿会来到。
“There are persons in the church who are not converted, and who will not unite in earnest, prevailing prayer. We must enter upon the work individually. We must pray more, and talk less. Iniquity abounds, and the people must be taught not to be satisfied with a form of godliness without the spirit and power. If we are intent upon searching our own hearts, putting away our sins, and correcting our evil tendencies, our souls will not be lifted up unto vanity; we shall be distrustful of ourselves, having an abiding sense that our sufficiency is of God.” Selected Messages, book 1, 121, 122.
「教會裡有些人尙未悔改,也弗肯同心切切、得勝个祈禱。我伲必須一個一個咁進入這項工夫。我伲應當多多祈禱,少少講話。罪惡增多,百姓必須受教,弗好滿足於單有敬虔个外貌,卻無其靈與能力。若是我伲專心查察自家个心,除去自家个罪,改正自家个惡傾向,我伲个心靈就弗會高舉歸於虛妄;我伲也會弗信靠自家,常常覺得我伲个充足是出於上帝。」《信息選粹》卷一,121、122。
The waymark of prayer is set forth in Daniel, describing a prayer to understand the external message in chapter two, and also a prayer to fulfill the internal message represented in chapter nine. Zerubbabel and his father Shealtiel represent the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand at the second test, which is the visual test of the image of the beast, which is also the internal test represented in Revelation chapter eleven, verse eleven, and also the external test represented in Daniel chapter eleven, verse eleven.
祈祷之路标载于《但以理书》之中,所述者,一为欲明白第二章之外在信息而献之祈祷,一为欲成就第九章所表之内在信息而献之祈祷。所罗巴伯同其父撒拉铁,表征于第二次试验之时对十四万四千人之印封;此试验乃兽像之外显试验,亦即《启示录》第十一章第十一节所表之内在试验,并亦为《但以理书》第十一章第十一节所表之外在试验。
We will continue to address verse eleven in the next article.
阿拉将会勒下一篇文章里继续讲解第十一节。
