马太福音-Matthew 1章7节

1:7 所罗门生罗波安,罗波安生亚比雅,亚比雅生亚撒,
And Solomon begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa,

Enlightenment:

After David committed murder and adultery, he was rebuked by the prophet Nathan, whom God sent purposely to condemn him (2 Sam. 12:1-12). After he was condemned, David repented. Psalm 51 is David’s psalm of repentance. David repented and God forgave (2 Sam. 12:13). There was repentance and there was forgiveness. Altogether we have three items here: transgression, repentance, and forgiveness. If we put all three together, the result is Solomon. First there were transgression and repentance plus forgiveness. After that, there was Solomon (2 Sam. 12:24), the one who built God’s temple. Solomon is the result not only of transgression and repentance, but of transgression, repentance, and God’s forgiveness. Here we see two marriages. The first was a marriage between David and Bathsheba. The second was a spiritual marriage, the marriage of David’s transgression and repentance with God’s forgiveness. God’s forgiveness married David’s transgression and repentance. This marriage brought forth the man named Solomon who built the temple of God. The church is always built up by this kind of person, Solomon, the issue of man’s transgression and repentance plus God’s forgiveness.

大卫犯了杀人、奸淫的罪以后,受到申言者拿单的责备。神特意打发拿单去定罪他。(撒下十二1~12。)大卫被定罪以后,就悔改了。诗篇五十一篇就是个的悔罪诗。大卫悔改,神就赦免。(撒下十二13。)有悔改,也有赦免。这里共有三项:过犯、悔改和赦免。我们若将这三项放在一起,结果就是所罗门。首先有过犯和悔改加上赦免,以后有所罗门,(撒下十二24,)就是建造神殿的人。所罗门不仅是过犯与悔改的结果,也是过犯、悔改与神赦免的结果。这里我们看见两种结合;第一种是大卫与拔示巴之间的结合。第二种是属灵的结合,就是大卫的过犯和悔改与神赦免的结合。神的赦免与大卫的过犯和悔改结合。这种结合生出了一个名叫所罗门的人,他建造了神的殿。召会总是藉着所罗门这样的人建造的,他是人的过犯和悔改加上神赦免的结果。
