1弟兄們,我不願意你們不曉得,我們的祖宗從前都在雲下,都從海中經過。
For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea.
2都在雲裏海里受洗歸了摩西。
They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.
3並且都吃了一樣的靈食。
They all ate the same spiritual food
4也都喝了一樣的靈水。所喝的是出於隨着他們的靈磐石。那磐石就是基督。
and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.
5但他們中間,多半是神不喜歡的人。所以在曠野倒斃。
Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered over the desert.
眾所周知,舊約人得救,是通過摩西,因摩西是神的舊約頒布者,摩西律法時代也!新約人得救,是通過耶穌基督,耶穌立新約,耶穌恩典時代也!
因着信神過紅海而倒斃曠野的以色列人,就是呼應以西結33和希伯來6的具體實例!
