总题：民数记结晶读经（一）
第十二篇 基督从祂的成为肉体，经过祂的升天，到祂的再来，乃是神在地上行动的中心
Christ as the Center of God's Move on the Earth from His Incarnation through His Ascension to His Second Coming
读经：民十33～36，诗六八
壹 神给祂百姓一般的引导是借着云彩和两枝银号（民九15～十10），而祂对祂百姓特别的引领是借着约柜（33～36）；约柜乃是在升天里钉死与复活之基督的预表：─引用经文
I. God's guidance to His people in a general way was by the cloud and the two silver trumpets (Num. 9:15-10:10), whereas His leading of His people in a particular way was through the Ark (vv. 33-36), a type of the crucified and resurrected Christ in His ascension:
一 因此，神子民独一的带领者不是任何人（参29～32），乃是钉死与复活的基督（太二三10）。─引用经文
A. Hence, the unique Leader of God's people is not any man (cf. vv. 29-32) but is the crucified and resurrected Christ (Matt. 23:10).
二 祂是带领者，在基督徒一生漫长、崎岖的路程上，领我们到合式的安歇之处─来四8～9与注。
B. He is the Leader, and He leads us to the proper place of rest on the long and rugged journey of the Christian life—Heb. 4:8-9 and footnotes.
三 约柜的引领指明基督的引领是信实的，是照着约的：
C. The leading of the Ark of the Covenant indicates that the leading of Christ is faithful, according to a covenant:
1 神与亚伯拉罕和他的后裔立约，要领他们进入美地─创十七1～8，参出二三20。
1. God made a covenant with Abraham and his descendants to bring them into the good land—Gen. 17:1-8; cf. Exo. 23:20.
2 至终，神的约放在柜里，所以这柜称为约柜。
2. Eventually, God's covenant was placed in the Ark; thus, the Ark was called the Ark of the Covenant.
3 因此，那领我们进入安息之处的基督，乃是立约的基督，这基督也是神的信实─参林后一19～20。
3. Hence, the Christ who leads us into a resting place is the Christ of the covenant, the Christ of God's faithfulness—cf. 2 Cor. 1:19-20.
贰 民数记十章三十五至三十六节说，“约柜往前行的时候，摩西就说，耶和华啊，求你兴起，愿你的仇敌四散；愿恨你的人从你面前逃跑。约柜停住的时候，他就说，耶和华啊，求你回到以色列的千万人中”：
II. Numbers 10:35 and 36 say, "When the Ark set out, Moses said, Rise up, O Jehovah, and let Your enemies be scattered; / And let those who hate You flee before You. And when it came to rest, he said, Return, O Jehovah, to the ten thousand thousands of Israel":
一 民数记十章三十五节被引用于诗篇六十八篇一节；保罗在以弗所四章八至十节将诗篇六十八篇的话，应用于基督的升天；因此，民数记十章三十五节的兴起，是指基督在祂的升天里升到诸天之上。─引用经文
A. Numbers 10:35 is quoted in Psalm 68:1; in Ephesians 4:8-10 Paul applied the word in Psalm 68 to the ascension of Christ; hence, the rising up in this verse refers to Christ's rising up to the heavens in His ascension.
二 本节的兴起，既然是指基督在祂的升天里升到诸天之上，三十六节摩西所说的“回到”，必是指基督的再来。─引用经文
B. Since the rising up in Numbers 10:35 refers to Christ's rising up to the heavens in His ascension, the word return spoken by Moses in verse 36 must refer to the second coming of Christ.
三 摩西在三十五至三十六节的话，描绘出神经纶的全景，从基督的成为肉体来作约柜，就是三一神的具体化身，经过祂的升天，到祂的再来。─引用经文
C. Moses' word in verses 35 and 36 portrays a full view of God's economy from Christ's incarnation to be the Ark, the embodiment of the Triune God, through His ascension to His second coming.
叁 诗篇六十八篇是民数记十章三十五至三十六节的解释，启示基督是神在地上行动的中心：─引用经文
III. Psalm 68 as an exposition of Numbers 10:35 and 36 reveals Christ as the center of God's move on the earth:
一 神的行动开始于竖立帐幕同约柜以后；帐幕同约柜表征基督成为肉体，作神在地上的居所，以祂自己为神在祂经纶中行动的中心─诗六八1，约一14上，民九15上。
A. God's move began after the rearing up of the tabernacle with the Ark, signifying Christ incarnated to be the dwelling place of God on the earth with Himself as the center for God's move in His economy—Psa. 68:1; John 1:14a; Num. 9:15a.
二 神在帐幕同约柜里，从西乃山（诗六八8下、17下）经过旷野（4中、7下）到锡安山（16）的行动，预表祂在基督里从成为肉体到升天的行动─约一17，弗四8～10。
B. God's move in the tabernacle with the Ark from Mount Sinai (Psa. 68:8b, 17b) through the wilderness (vv. 4b, 7b) to Mount Zion (v. 16) is a type of His move in Christ from the incarnation to the ascension—John 1:17; Eph. 4:8-10.
三 神仍在地上行动，祂正在召会中并借着召会行动，并且以基督为召会的中心而行动─约五17，徒二八31，提前三15～16，诗六八4、7。
C. God is still moving on this earth in and through the church, and He is moving with Christ as the center of the church—John 5:17; Acts 28:31; 1 Tim. 3:15-16; Psa. 68:4, 7.
四 神在人里的行动是要使人成为神，使人在生命和性情上与祂一样，但无分于神格─林前十五45下，罗八10、6、11。
D. God's move in man is to deify man, making man the same as He is in life and in nature but not in the Godhead—1 Cor. 15:45b; Rom. 8:10, 6, 11.
肆 诗篇六十八篇启示神在基督里以基督为中心（由约柜所预表）的得胜：
IV. Psalm 68 reveals God's victory in Christ as the center, typified by the Ark:
一 “愿神兴起；愿祂的仇敌四散；愿恨祂的人从祂面前逃跑”─约柜（基督的预表）无论往哪里去，总是赢得胜利─1节，民十35。
A. "Let God arise; let His enemies be scattered; / And let those who hate Him flee before Him"—wherever the Ark, a type of Christ, went, the victory was won—v. 1; Num. 10:35.
二 “统兵的君王逃跑了，逃跑了！”─这些被击败并四散的君王，预表撒但和管辖者，就是背叛的天使─诗六八12上、14，弗六12。
B. "The kings of the armies flee. / They flee!"—these kings, who were defeated and scattered, typify Satan and the rulers, the rebellious angels—Psa. 68:12a, 14; Eph. 6:12.

D. "She who abides at home / Divides the spoil"—the spoil signifies all the gains of the accomplishment, consummation, attainment, and obtainment of Christ as the reapings of the victory of His death, resurrection, and ascension—v. 12b.
五 “你们虽然躺卧在羊圈之间”─躺卧在羊圈之间，表征安息于神对祂选民的供备和眷顾中─13节上。
E. "Though you lie among the sheepfolds"—lying among the sheepfolds signifies resting in God's provision and care for His elect—v. 13a.
六 “像鸽子的翅膀镀了白银，翎毛镀了绿黄色的金”─这节经文启示掠物有四项─13节下：
F. "There are dove wings covered with silver, / And its pinions, with greenish-yellow gold"—this verse reveals four items among the spoil—v. 13b:
1 鸽子的翅膀表征那灵行动的能力。
1. The dove wings signify the moving power of the Spirit.
2 银表征基督的救赎，使我们得称义，就是白色─蒙称许的颜色─所指明的。
2. Silver signifies Christ in His redemption for our justification, which is indicated by the color white, the color of approval.
3 翎毛是鸟翅末端的羽毛，使鸟有力量飞翔并升腾，表征那灵飞翔并升腾的能力─参赛四十31。
3. Pinions (the feathers at the end of a bird's wings giving it the strength to fly and soar) signify the flying and soaring power of the Spirit—cf. Isa. 40:31.
4 翎毛所镀绿黄色闪耀的金，表征神的性情闪耀在神圣的生命和荣耀里─彼后一4，参约四24，约壹四8，一5。
4. The greenish-yellow, glittering gold with which the pinions are covered signifies God's nature glittering in the divine life and glory—2 Pet. 1:4; cf. John 4:24; 1 John 4:8; 1:5.
5 以上四项的内容，乃是基督在祂得胜里所得的掠物，作神选民的享受；这四项实际上就是三一神同祂完整、完全、包罗万有之救恩的一切项目─参罗五10、17、21。
5. The contents of the above four items, as Christ's spoil in His victory for the enjoyment of God's elect, are actually the Triune God with all the items of His complete, full, and all-inclusive salvation—cf. Rom. 5:10, 17, 21.
6 神的选民享受这些项目，作他们在基督里的分，并将这些作为好信息向别人宣报─诗六八11。
6. God's elect enjoy all the above items as their portion in Christ and announce them to others as the glad tidings—Psa. 68:11.

2. Christ defeated Satan and captured his captives (including us); then like a general leading his captives, Christ in His ascension to the heavens led us to the Father—cf. 2 Cor. 2:12-14.
3 扩大本新约圣经（Amplified New Testament）将以弗所四章八节里“祂……掳掠了那些被掳的”，译为“祂……帅领了一列被征服的仇敌”；基督升天时，有一列被征服，成了战俘的仇敌，庆祝基督的得胜。─引用经文
3. The Amplified New Testament renders He led captive those taken captive in Ephesians 4:8 as "He led a train of vanquished foes"; in Christ's ascension there was a procession of these vanquished foes, led as captives from a war, for the celebration of Christ's victory.

B. "Blessed be the Lord, who day by day loads us with good; / God is our salvation. Selah"—the good here is the Triune God—the dove wings covered with silver and its pinions covered with greenish-yellow, glittering gold—vv. 19, 13; Rom. 8:28; Matt. 19:17; Phil. 1:19-21a.
