马太福音-Matthew 1章6节
| 1:6 |
耶西生大卫王。大卫从作过乌利亚妻子的生所罗门， And Jesse begot David the king. And David begot Solomon of her who had been the wife of Uriah, |
Enlightenment:
Although the Bible does not have much to say about Jesse, what it does say about him is important. Isaiah chapter eleven speaks twice regarding Jesse. Isaiah 11:1 says that Christ will be the shoot (“rod” should be “shoot,” Heb.) out of the stem of Jesse and a branch out of the root of Jesse. Christ came out of him. Isaiah 11:10 says that Christ is the root of Jesse, indicating that Jesse came out of Christ. Jesse is a man altogether out of Christ; he is also a person who brings forth Christ. Christ comes out of him, and he comes out of Christ. Christ was his branch, and Christ was also his root. We need light from the Lord to understand these things.
What is a Jesse? A Jesse is a person who brings forth Christ, who branches out Christ by being rooted in Christ. When you branch out Christ, do not forget that Christ is not only your branch, but also your root. Christ branches out of you, and you come out of Christ. Christ is our source, and Christ is also our issue. This means that we are one with Christ and very closely associated with Him. We are in Him, and He is in us. He issues out of us, and we are rooted in Him. This is the kind of person who enjoys the birthright of Christ.
亮光
关于耶西，圣经没有说得很多，但所说的却很重要。以赛亚十一章两次说到耶西。以赛亚十一章一节说，基督将是从耶西的不发出的枝条，从他的根生出的枝子。（直译。）基督乃从耶西而出。以赛亚十一章十节说，基督是耶西的根，指明耶西是从基督而出。耶西是全然出于基督的人；他也是带进基督的人。基督出于他，他也出于基督。基督是他的枝条，基督也是他的根。我们需要从主来的光，好领会这些事。
耶西是什么？耶西是带进基督、藉着生根于基督而长出基督枝条的人。当你长出基督枝条的时候，不要忘了基督不仅是你的枝条，也是你的根。基督从你而出，你也从基督而出。基督是我们的源头，基督也是我们的流出。这就是说，我们与基督是一，与祂非常紧密的联结在一起。我们在祂里面，祂也在我们里面。祂从我们流出，我们也生根于祂。这就是享受基督长子名分的人。
