【Daily Bread】Unraveling the Mysteries 揭开奥秘




A commitment to read and follow God’s Word begins a daily journey of discovering His love and power.


日日研读并遵行主话语,天天看见祂慈爱与大能。


I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every wrong path. Psalm 119:104

我藉着祢的训词得以明白,所以我恨一切的假道。-诗篇119篇104节



I have always enjoyed the wit and insight of Peanuts creator, Charles Schulz. One of my favorite cartoons drawn by him appeared in a book about young people in the church. It shows a young man holding a Bible as he tells a friend on the phone, “I think I’ve made one of the first steps toward unraveling the mysteries of the Old Testament . . . I’m starting to read it!” (Teen-Ager Is Not a Disease).

我一直非常欣赏《花生》漫画作者查尔斯.舒兹(Charles Schulz)的幽默及独到的见解。我最喜欢他所画的一部漫画,是一本以教会里的年轻人为题材的作品。漫画中,一位手拿圣经的年轻人,正打电话告诉一位朋友说:“我想,我已经蓄势待发,准备要揭开旧约圣经的奥秘,我正开始读旧约呢!”


Psalm 119 overflows with the writer’s hunger to understand and experience the power of God’s Word each day. “Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long” (v. 97). This eager pursuit leads to growing wisdom, understanding, and obedience to the Lord (vv. 98–100).

诗篇119篇充分表露出诗人渴慕上帝的话语,他希望每天都能了解并经历上帝话语的能力,诗人说:“我何等爱慕祢的律法,终日不住地思想”(97节)。他对上帝话语的渴慕与追求,使他的智慧增长、更为通达明理,且能遵守上帝的训词(98-100节)。


The Bible doesn’t contain a magic formula for “unraveling the mysteries” in its pages. The process is more than mental and requires a response to what we read. While some passages may remain puzzling to us, we can embrace those truths we clearly understand, and say to the Lord, “How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every wrong path” (vv. 103–104).

圣经中并没有任何“揭开奥秘”的神奇方程式。我们不只是以理性来阅读圣经,也需要对所读的内容做出回应。尽管我们可能对某些经文感到困惑不解,但我们仍然可以抓紧那些已经清楚明白的真理,并对上帝说:“祢的言语在我上膛何等甘美,在我口中比蜜更甜!我藉着祢的训词得以明白,所以我恨一切的假道。”(103-104节)


A wonderful journey of discovery awaits us in God’s Word.

上帝的话语正等着我们去发掘其中的奥秘。


Lord, thank You for the Bible, which gives us wisdom and understanding to follow Your pathway of life today.


主,感谢祢,藉由圣经赐给我们智慧和聪明,
使我们今日能遵行祢的生命之道。


Psalm 119:97-104New International Version (NIV)

? Mem

97 Oh, how I love your law!
    I meditate on it all day long.
98 Your commands are always with me
    and make me wiser than my enemies.
99 I have more insight than all my teachers,
    for I meditate on your statutes.
100 I have more understanding than the elders,
    for I obey your precepts.
101 I have kept my feet from every evil path
    so that I might obey your word.
102 I have not departed from your laws,
    for you yourself have taught me.
103 How sweet are your words to my taste,
    sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104 I gain understanding from your precepts;
    therefore I hate every wrong path.
