In fact they were never supposed to even make images of God. 但是對於以色列人而言,他們通常不將自己的國王視為神。事實上,他們甚至不會為自己的神明建造雕像。 It's exactly right and that was really unique for that time and culture. 而這是完全可以接受的。這個觀念無論是在當時而言、或以當地而論都是很獨特的 This is rooted first of all in Israel's belief that you can´t reduce the creator God down to any one thing in creation. 這個在最初就已根植在以色列人的信仰,即你不能將身為造物主的神,眨為任何人手所造之物 But there is another reason. PEOPLE AREN'T TO MAKE IMAGE OF GOD BECAUSE GOD HAS ALREADY MADE IMAGE OF HIMSELF. 但是還有另外一個理由:人不可以為神製作偶像,因為神已經使用過祂的形象了 When did he do that 神什麼時候做的? Lets go to page 1 of the bible and the first person we meet there is God. 我們可以翻到聖經第一頁,我們在書中讀到的第一個角色就是上帝 He is the one with authority over all creation. He speaks and the creation obeys and He defines what is good and not good 祂的權柄超出所有受造物之上。祂下達旨意,受造物受旨奉行。祂也同時定義了善、惡的法度 In other words, He alone is King but then surprisingly as the pinnacle of all of God's creative work He makes humans. 換句話說,祂本身就扮演君王的角色,但是出乎意料上帝的創造顛峰,就是祂造了人類 and he calls all of them the Image of God 而且上帝稱呼人是「神的形象」 So he gives all humans the authority to rule 因此,上帝給予人類治理大地的權力 Exactly. That is what He goes on to say. 的確是這樣。 He tells the humans to subdue the earth and to rule it. And so this task, 祂告訴人類去征服、統治這個大地。所以這個任務 that once belonged only to elite kings is here in the bible, the task of every human being 本來只屬於那些貴族君王,卻清楚明載於聖經。統治大地變成是「所有人類」的任務 This was a revolutionary statement in its day because all humans are being called 在那個時代,這是一個很具革命性的聲明,因為所有人類都被呼召 to rule and to participate in the human project. 去治理、參與這個人類計劃 So what does this mean, I mean, how are we all supposed to rule. 所以這到底指的是什麼,我是指,我們應該如何去治理? So, the picture we get in Genesis is 所以,我們從聖經「創世紀」中所得知的概念是 gardening, "Gardening?!" 園藝。「園藝?」 Yes, Gardening. So, they rule the earth 是「園藝」無誤。所以,他們治理大地 by cultivating it, by harnessing all of the earth's raw potential and then making something more and new out of it 是藉由耕種、和利用地球上的資源潛力,來製作出更多、更新的東西 So, growing food for each other. 所以,為彼此栽種食物 Yes, but that also includes growing families which then becomes neighborhoods 是的,但這也促進了家庭擴張,形成鄰居 and then they create communities where people are going to work and take care of each other 再建立社區,使人工作在其中、可以相互照應 and build businesses and cities and will expand to new places and so on 再產生商業行為,建造城市,並繼續擴大腹地,以此類推 So, ruling is really the day to day acts of our work and creativity 所以,所謂「統治」基本上是指日以繼日的工作、發揮我們的創意 Yes, we take the world somewhere 是的,我們引領世界向前 This is humanity's divine and sacred task. 這是人類的神聖工作 This all sounds really nice 這聽起來真是相當不錯 And humans have designed some pretty great things 而且人類的確也設計了許多偉大的事物 But just as often we create things that cause a lot of sufferring and a lot of injustice 但是我們也同時也創造出許多的痛苦、不公義的事情 So, maybe we shouldn't actually be ruling 所以,也許我們不應該治理大地 Yah, so the bible addresses this 是呀,所以在聖經中對此有記載 In Genesis, what happens is that God gives humans 在「創世紀」中,上帝給了人們 a choice of how they are going to rule. 「選擇」他們要如何去統治 So, are they going to use their authority for the benefit of others 人類是要以「利他」為出發點來行使職權 which is God's definition of good 這在上帝眼中是良善的 Or are they going to turn away and define good and evil for themselves 或著他們要背離神,以他們自己的標準來定義善惡 and use their authority for self advantage 以「自利」的角度來行使職權 and in the story they choose to define good and evil on their own terms 而在聖經故事中,人類最後選擇以自己的標準來定義善惡 And so this is the bible's depiction of the human condition 這就是聖經對於人類狀況的描述 so sometimes we pull off amazingly good stuff but just as often 所以有時候我們的確達成了許多偉業,但我們也常常 despite our best intentions we act selfishly and we create evil in the world 因為私欲而犯下罪行,僅管我們有時不是出自惡意 and so we are stuck as mediocre rulers 所以我們成為了平庸的統治者 making a mess of things 常把事情搞砸 But that's not the end of the story 但是這個不是故事的結局 so, the bible goes on and makes this claim 聖經的故事仍繼續著,並且宣稱 that all of this was resolved when God bound himself 這些問題全部都被解決了,當上帝 to humanity through Jesus and 藉由耶穌顯示了牠的慈愛 He showed us what it looks like to truly rule as a human 並籍此教導我們:身為人類,要如何行才像是真正的統治者 So what does it look like 那到底是如何呢? Well, Jesus ruled by serving and by seeking 嗯,耶穌是藉著服侍他人,並且 the best for others by putting himself underneath them 將自己降卑來為他人得著好處 and loving not just His friends but also His enemies 不只是愛自己的朋友,同時也愛他的敵人 And that's not a typical way to rule 這可不是一個尋常的方式來治理 And not only that Jesus confronted the consequences of 不僅如此,耶穌面對了 all the evil and death that we have created by 我們一手創造的罪惡與死亡 our messed up ways of ruling 因為我們的治理不善 and he takes it, I mean he lets it kill Him 耶穌而且承受了它。我是說耶穌因此而犧牲了 And so, when the new testament writers looked back 因此,當聖經新約的作者回顧 to Jesus's resurrection they see 耶穌的復活時,他們看到了 a whole new future opening up for all humanity 一個為全人類所開創的新未來 Jesus is a new way to be human 耶穌活出了人新的方式 Yah, that's why they call Jesus the Image of God or New Human 是呀,這是為什麼他們稱耶穌為「上帝的形象」或「新人類」 And not only that they also believe that Jesus is divine 不僅如此,他們也相信耶穌神聖的 life and power is now available to 生命和力量得以 heal and transform us to become our life and power 治癒、轉變我們,成為我們的生命和力量 and this sounds really nice 這聽起來真是不錯 but what does it really look like 但是這到底是怎麼樣的呢? So, practically the apostle Paul said it looks 實際上,使徒保羅說這就像 like people being filled by Jesus's own presence and spirit 人被耶穌的同在、聖靈所充滿 filled with love and joy and peace and patience 充滿了愛心、喜樂、和平、忍耐 and kindness and goodness and integrity and gentleness and self control 仁慈、良善、信直、溫柔、節制 He says this is the new humanity that God wants 他說這是上帝所希望建造在我們心中的新人性 to create in us. So that we become people 所以我們成為 in whom God's image is being restored 一個恢復上帝形象的新人 people who will move the human project forward 一個可以推動人類計劃的新人 and that's actually how the story of the bible ends 而這個才是聖經故事的結局 It's a renewed world where God is on 這是一個嶄新的世界,上帝位於 His throne and His servants are all around Him 祂的寶座上,而祂統治的萬民環繞著祂 But they are the ones ruling over this new world 但這些新人才是真正統治了新世界 Taking it into new uncharted territory with Jesus 和耶穌一同進入新的未知領域 as their healer and their God. 做為他們的治癒者和他們的神 Thanks for watching this channel 謝謝觀看這個頻道 We do this because we believe the bible is 我們製作這個影片,是因為我們相信聖經是 one unified narrative that leads to Jesus 前後一致,並彰顯耶穌的故事 It has profound wisdom for the modern world 它對於今天的世界仍提供了淵博的智慧 So we are making different video 所以我們製作了不同糸列的影片 series some that walk people through the 帶領觀眾來了解 design and message of books of the bible 聖經中不同書卷的架構和訊息 or whole sections of the bible 或是聖經的整個章節 We also do a series that take one biblical 我們也製作了一個糸列影片,針對一個 theme and trace that through the whole narrative 聖經主題,貫穿了整本聖經故事 arch of the bible kinda like the one 有點像是你正在看的這一集 you just watched and we have a lot more 我們將會推出更多的 series coming up that we have planned 糸列影片,在我們的計劃之中 The Bible project is possible because of 這個「聖經計劃」之所以能成真,是因為 your support, so if some people give one time 大家的支持。所以希望有些人可以做單次的捐獻 gifts and there is a growing number of monthly supporters 也希望有更多的人每月可以固定捐獻 as well and we are all behind this. 我們都會在背後繼續努力 we want to make these videos free and available 我們想要讓這些影片免費,並且 to anyone anywhere. 使住在各地的每個人都可以方便觀賞 Yah, you can join us and be a part of this 是的,你可以加入我們,變成這個計劃的一部份 Go to jointhebibleproject.com.
