Enter…Elijah
/in upwords /by meilingAncient Israel had the scruffy hills of Gilead, and somewhere in this rugged land Elijah came to believe in a mighty Yahweh who refused to share his glory with others. He confronted Ahab and Jezebel with a surgical strike. Baal was regarded as the god of fertility, yet Baal’s veil was about to be yanked back. Jehovah has declared a drought.
Does Elijah have some encouragement for our generation? Absolutely! The story of Elijah offers us hope. Elijah shows us that one person following a living God is greater than hundreds of people praying to a lifeless one.

这章里,《圣经》第一次称摩西为「神人」,英文是the man of God, 可以说是属神的人,也可以说是奉神差遣的人,或有圣灵的人。他形容神在西奈山与百姓的初见,「西奈山」又译为何烈山,神的山。因为神在那里赐下律法。「西珥」的原意是多毛,或长满粗毛,是以东地的山脉。「巴兰山」是旷野地的一座山。「万万圣者」有的人说可能是指众多的天使。在这里唯一的一次,把律法形容为烈火的律法,烈火可以烧尽渣滓,使万物洁净;神的律法也有洁净人心的作用。摩西指出,神把律法传给百姓,是因为神疼爱他们。
