35.《單獨不孤單Alone yet not alone》(耶29:24-32)

知道的是我,作見證的也是我。這是耶和華說的。(29:23)

29:24-32 揭示另一場屬靈風暴:示瑪雅以假預言攻擊耶利米,試圖扭轉被擄者的信仰方向。這段經文讓我們看見神如何拆穿謊言、保護真道,並提醒群體在混亂聲音中辨識祂的心意。

A1
叫西番雅害耶利米(24-28):
示瑪雅顯然是一個被擄巴比倫的猶大人(從他的言說中可知應是與約雅斤一同被擄的猶大官員,並且支持兩年內回歸的假先知言語),他聽到了耶利米寄給被擄群體的信中內容,就寫信給當時在猶大的的祭司長西番雅,斥責耶利米叫人在巴比倫安居等待七十年的言說是假先知的話,示瑪雅去信叫西番雅捉拿耶利米,因為耶利米自稱為先知。
[1]

A2
假先知的陰謀失敗(29):
西番雅收到示瑪雅的信後,並沒有照做,反而把信讀給耶利米聽。這一舉動破壞了示瑪雅的陰謀。示瑪雅的暗中操作被公開,耶利米得以直接回應示瑪雅的指控,神藉此揭露示瑪雅對耶利米的謀害。這行動顯示神保護了耶利米,使陰謀不能得逞,這事實說明真理不怕被公開,更說明神親自拆穿假先知的計謀,讓耶利米的真信息得以站立。

B1 示瑪雅的假先知話(30-31):
於是耶和華叫耶利米再寫一信給被擄百姓,說明上主對示瑪雅的審判:因為他妄稱奉耶和華的名說話,其實是捏造信息,他誤導被擄者,使他們拒絕神的真旨意;他散播虛假盼望,使百姓不願在巴比倫安居,他破壞群體的信仰方向,使人遠離神的計劃。示瑪雅使百姓倚靠謊言,這是極嚴重的罪,因為假盼望會摧毀真信心,假信息使群體走向更大的災難,假先知的甜言蜜語比刀劍更致命。神的審判不是因為示瑪雅反對耶利米,而是因為他反對神的真話。

B2
刑罰示瑪雅與後裔(32):
神宣告示瑪雅的結局:他必不得存留後裔,不得見神要為祂子民所行的福樂。這是極具象徵性的審判,沒有後裔表示他的名字、影響力、聲望完全被神除去。不得見福樂表示他被排除在神的救贖計劃之外。神的理由很清楚,因為他教導悖逆,使百姓偏離神的道路。假先知的結局提醒群體: 拒絕神的真話,就是拒絕神的福樂。

示瑪雅的故事提醒今天的信徒:屬靈混亂中最需要的是辨識真話的能力。面對各種「速成盼望」與迎合人心的聲音,我們要回到神的話,學習在不理想的環境中仍忠心站立。真信仰不是逃避現實,而是在現實中持守神的旨意。

單獨卻不孤alone yet not alone),雖然很多人都反對耶利米,但原來神也派來其他人幫助他,耶利米並不孤單。今天我們在跟從主的路上也不會孤單,因為神會興起其他人和我們同工,因為主比我們更關心我們所關心的,並且要用更多人見證主自己的誠信真實,所以我們不孤單

【祈禱】
門徒出去,到處宣傳福音。主和他們同工,用神蹟隨著,證實所傳的道。阿們!(可16:20
主啊,服事你的人是有福的,感謝你興起人給我幫助,讓我更深經驗你的同在,叫我專心跟從你的腳蹤行,阿們。

I'm aloneyet not alone. God's the light that will guide me home.
With His love and tenderness
Leading through the wilderness
And wherever I may roam
I'm aloneyet not alone.

I will not be bent in fear. He's the refuge I know is near.
In His strength I find my own. By His faithful mercies shown.
That so mighty is His shield All His love is now revealed.

When my steps are lost. And desperate for a guide

I can feel his touch
A soothing presence by my side.

Alone
yet not alone. Not forsaken when on my own.
I can lean upon His arm
And be lifted up from harm.
If I stumble
or if I'm thrownI'm aloneyet not alone.

When my steps are lost. And desperate for a guide

I can feel his touch
A soothing presence by my side.

By my side
He has bound me with His love
Watchful angels look from above. Every evil can be braved

For I know I will be saved. Never frightened on my own

I'm alone
yet not alone. I'm aloneyet not alone.



[1] 文中的耶何耶大可能是當日的祭司長,甚至是大祭司。從示瑪雅的信中可知,西番雅當時已經當上原來耶何耶大的職份。
