聖經靈修版:
甘心如亞伯拉罕,連摯愛都獻上;我看我手所緊握的,我怕我捨不得啊……
22:12 把心中所摯愛的獻上是一件難事。愛自己的獨生子豈不是理所當然嗎?只要當我們肯獻上神所要的,他所賞賜的就遠超過我們所想的。他所賜的屬靈恩福比我們的犧牲更大。還有甚麼東西是你捨不得獻上的呢?你所愛的、你的孩子,還是你的時間?這些不都是從他而來的嗎?我們當信靠他必為我們預備一切(參22:8)。
昔日神為亞伯拉罕預備了公山羊,今日為我們預備的是……
22:13 請留意那代替以撒獻在壇上的公山羊,與在十字架上代替我們受死的耶穌,兩者之間的相似之處。神阻止亞伯拉罕殺他的兒子,卻不保留自己的獨生子耶穌,要他死在十字架上。若耶穌存活,則全人類都要死。神差獨生子為我們死,好使我們免受應得的永死,反得永生(參約3:16)。

神的預備(22:11-14)
11. 神介入的時間是絕對地完美和及時──不早不晚就在此時,
耶和華的使者呼叫了亞伯拉罕的名字!由於耶和華的使者可
能是基督在道成肉身之前的顯現,你能想象這情景對基督在
兩千年後親自在十字架上作燔祭時的影響嗎?!亞伯拉罕對
神呼召的反應永遠是一樣的,即“我在這裡”。
12. 試驗亞伯拉罕信心的實質和原因在22:12中一目了然。
“天使說:‘你不可在這童子身上下手,一點不可
害他!現在我知道你是敬畏神的了,因為你沒有將
你的兒子,就是你獨生的兒子,留下不給我。’”
請注意神要確切知道亞伯拉罕是否敬畏他,這包括:
毫無條件地順服
不打折扣的信靠
全副身心的敬拜
十分重要一點是:對信心的最大試驗不是我們給予神什
麼,而是我們試圖留下什麼(即我們不願放棄什麼)。
“你沒有將你的兒子,就是你獨生的兒子,留下
不給我。”
對亞伯拉罕來說,再沒有比他的兒子(在亞伯拉罕和撒拉已
經日暮西山時奇蹟般出生的應許之子)更珍貴的了!
然而,神沒有要求亞伯拉罕做任何神自己所不願做的事
(見約3:16),因神“舍了”自己的獨生子(羅8:32)。
神的愛已經向我們顯明,因他沒有為自己保留任何東西不給
我們,那麼我們將如何向神顯明我們的愛呢?
13. 神確實預備了燔祭的羔羊──以一隻公羊代來替亞伯拉罕的
兒子!(22:13)。神後來也預備基督在十字架上作贖罪的
羔羊,頂替了我們的罪!(見約1:29;來7:26-27,9:
12-14;彼前2:24)。
14. 亞伯拉罕給摩利亞山起了一個恰當的名字──“耶和華以
勒”(耶和華必預備)。神要求亞伯拉罕的是順服(信心),
其它就都是神的事了。這同樣適用於我們──在救贖與成聖
上都是如此。
