民六24~26　愿耶和华赐福给你，保护你；愿耶和华使祂的面光照你，赐恩给你；愿耶和华向你仰脸，赐你平安。

　　林后十三14　愿主耶稣基督的恩，神的爱，圣灵的交通，与你们众人同在。

　　民数记六章二十三至二十六节和林后十三章十四节的福分，都不是外在的、物质的。这里的福分不是优越的工作、美好的房屋、高等的教育和幸福的家庭生活。不仅如此，这福分也无关于在召会中有任何一种地位。有时我们想到自己的境况，也许会失望，觉得自己什么都没有。日光之下的一切，甚至属灵范围里的一切，对我们似乎都是虚空的虚空。我们也许觉得没有什么是真实的，甚至召会生活也是如此。当我们这样觉得的时候，我们该怎么办？我们该转向三一神。祂是我们真实的祝福，是我们的分。有祂作福分，是何等的祝福！有祂的面，祂的同在，并且天天享受祂作恩典，是何等的祝福！我们越受苦，就越享受祂作恩典。有祂的脸向我们微笑，向我们保证，向我们确认，这是何等的祝福！在祂里面、借着祂并同着祂有平安，又是何等的祝福！这是三一神来作我们的福分。哦，愿基督的恩，神的爱，圣灵的交通，与你们众人同在！（民数记生命读经，九一至九二页）

　　Num. 6:24-26 Jehovah bless you and keep you; Jehovah make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; Jehovah lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.

　　2 Cor. 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

　　In both Numbers 6:23-26 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 the blessing is not outward and material. The blessing here is not a matter of an excellent job, a nice house, a high education, and a good family life. Furthermore, this blessing is not related to having any kind of position in the church. Sometimes when we consider our situation, we may be disappointed and feel that we do not have anything. It may seem to us that everything under the sun and even everything in the spiritual field is vanity of vanities. We may feel that nothing is real, not even in the church life. What should we do when we feel this way? We should turn to the Triune God. He is our real blessing and portion. What a blessing it is to have Him as the blessing! What a blessing it is to have His face, His presence, and to enjoy Him daily as grace! The more we suffer, the more we enjoy Him as grace. What a blessing it is to have His countenance smiling upon us, assuring us, and confirming us! And what a blessing it is to have peace in Him, by Him, and with Him! This is the Triune God as our blessing. Oh, may the grace of Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all! (Life-study of Numbers, p. 83)

　　〔主的恩、神的爱、圣灵的交通〕不是三件分开的东西，乃是一件东西的三方面，正如主、神、圣灵不是三位分开的神，乃是“同一位不分开，也不能分开之神的三个实质”（Philip Schaff，薛夫）。

　　林后十三章十四节先说主的恩，因为本书是着重基督的恩（一12，四15，六1，八1、9，九8、14，十二9）。这样有爱、恩、交通三种美德的神圣属性，以及这样有父、子、灵三面神圣实质的三一神，乃是那些被岔开并受迷惑，却得了安慰并恢复的哥林多信徒所需要的。因此，使徒在同一句里，把这些神圣而宝贵的东西全用上了，以结束他这封可爱又可亲的书信。

　　十三章十四节很强地证明，神格的三一，不是为着人在道理上领会系统的神学，乃是为着神在祂的三一里，把自己分赐到所拣选并救赎的人里面。在圣经中，神圣三一从未仅仅当作道理启示人，总是在说到神与祂的造物，特别与祂所造的人，尤其是与祂所拣选并救赎之人的关系时，才启示或说到。

　　〔主〕复活以后，嘱咐门徒要使万民作祂的门徒，将他们浸入父、子、圣灵的名里（太二八19）；就是将信徒带进三一神里，带进与经过过程之神生机的联结里。这位神已经经过了成为肉体、为人生活、钉十字架，并且进入复活。基于这种生机的联结，使徒就在哥林多后书的结语里，以可称颂的神圣三一祝福他们，借着灵的交通，有分于子的恩与父的爱。

　　因此，圣经从创世记到启示录，对神格的三一所有的神圣启示，显然都不是为着神学上的研究，乃是为着叫我们领会，神在祂奥秘而奇妙的三一里，如何将祂自己分赐到祂所拣选的人里面，使我们这些蒙祂拣选、救赎的人，能像使徒对哥林多信徒的祝福所指明的，有分于、经历、享受并得着经过过程的三一神，从今时直到永远（圣经恢复本，林后十三14注1）。

　　参读：民数记生命读经，第十一篇。

　　[The grace of the Lord, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Spirit] are not three separate matters but three aspects of one thing, just as the Lord, God, and the Holy Spirit are not three separate Gods but three "hypostases...of the one same undivided and indivisible" God (Philip Schaff).

　　In 2 Corinthians 13:14 the grace of the Lord is mentioned first because this book is on the grace of Christ (1:12; 4:15; 6:1; 8:1, 9; 9:8, 14; 12:9). Such a divine attribute of three virtues-—love, grace, and fellowship—and such a Triune God of the three divine hypostases—the Father, the Son, and the Spirit—were needed by the distracted and confused yet comforted and restored Corinthian believers. Hence, the apostle used all these divine and precious things in one sentence to conclude his lovely and dear Epistle.

　　This verse is strong proof that the trinity of the Godhead is not for the doctrinal understanding of systematic theology but for the dispensing of God Himself in His Trinity into His chosen and redeemed people. In the Bible the Trinity is never revealed merely as a doctrine. It is always revealed or mentioned in regard to the relationship of God with His creatures, especially with man, who was created by Him, and more particularly with His chosen and redeemed people.

　　After His resurrection He charged His disciples to disciple the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (Matt. 28:19); that is, He charged the disciples to bring the believing ones into the Triune God, into an organic union with the processed God, who had passed through incarnation, human living, and crucifixion and had entered into resurrection. Based on such an organic union, the apostle, at the conclusion of this divine Epistle to the Corinthians, blessed them with the blessed Divine Trinity in the participation in the Son's grace with the Father's love through the Spirit's fellowship.

　　Thus, it is evident that the divine revelation of the trinity of the Godhead in the holy Word, from Genesis through Revelation, is not for theological study but for the apprehending of how God in His mysterious and marvelous Trinity dispenses Himself into His chosen people, that we as His chosen and redeemed people may, as indicated in the apostle's blessing to the Corinthian believers, participate in, experience, enjoy, and possess the processed Triune God now and for eternity. Amen. (2 Cor. 13:14, footnote 1)
