伍 公开的吗哪是我们没有吃过的吗哪,而隐藏的吗哪是指我们所吃、所消化并吸收的吗哪—启二17: |
Ⅴ The open manna is manna that we have not eaten, whereas the hidden manna refers to manna that we have eaten, digested, and assimilated—Rev. 2:17: |
一 “不要认为你不可能成为得胜者。借着享受基督作吗哪,你能成为得胜者。要吃公开的吗哪,基督就成为隐藏的吗哪。这隐藏的吗哪要把你构成得胜者”—出埃及记生命读经,第三十九篇。 |
A “Do not think that it is impossible for you to be an overcomer. You can become an overcomer by enjoying Christ as manna. Eat the open manna, and Christ will become the hidden manna. This hidden manna will constitute you into an overcomer”—Life-study of Exodus, pp. 459-460. |
二 我们所吃、所消化并吸收的基督,要成为永远的记念;我们在永世里将要回想关于基督的两方面:享受基督作为将我们重新构成的成分,以及基督作为使我们成为神在宇宙中居所的供应—出十六16、32。 |
B Whatever we eat, digest, and assimilate of Christ will be an eternal memorial; what we shall recall concerning Christ in eternity will have two aspects: the aspect of the enjoyment of Christ as our reconstituting element and the aspect of Christ as the supply to make us God's dwelling place in the universe—Exo. 16:16, 32. |
三 正如金罐里的吗哪是神居所的中心点,照样,基督作为我们所吃的吗哪,乃是今天神建造的中心点—来九3~4,弗四16,西二19。 |
C Just as the manna in the golden pot was the focal point of God's dwelling place, so Christ as the manna eaten by us is the focal point of God's building today—Heb. 9:3-4; Eph. 4:16; Col. 2:19. |

出十六32 ……耶和华所吩咐的是这样,要将一满俄梅珥吗哪留到世世代代,使后人可以看见我当日将你们领出埃及地,在旷野所给你们吃的食物。 启二17 ……得胜的,我必将那隐藏的吗哪赐给他,并赐他一块白石……。 隐藏的吗哪乃是为着得胜者。公开的吗哪是公开给主的子民享受的;隐藏的吗哪是特别的一分,保留给那些胜过属世召会之堕落的得胜寻求者。当召会走世界的路时,这些得胜者进前来,住在至圣所神的面光中,在那里享受隐藏的基督这特别的一分,作他们每日的供应。 不要认为你不可能成为得胜者。借着享受基督作吗哪,你能成为得胜者。要吃公开的吗哪,基督就成为隐藏的吗哪。这隐藏的吗哪要把你构成得胜者,也要满足里面生命律法的要求,把你带进平安里。结果,按照启示录二章十七节,你就是得胜者(出埃及记生命读经,五二九至五三○页)。 |
Exo. 16:32 …This is what Jehovah has commanded, Let an omerful of it be kept throughout your generations, that they may see the bread which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out from the land of Egypt. Rev. 2:17 …To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and to him I will give a white stone… The hidden manna is for the overcomers. The open manna was for the enjoyment of the Lord's people in a public way; the hidden manna is a special portion reserved for His overcoming seekers who overcome the degradation of the worldly church. While the church goes the way of the world, these overcomers come forward to abide in the presence of God in the Holy of Holies, where they enjoy the hidden Christ as a special portion for their daily supply. Do not think that it is impossible for you to be an overcomer. You can become an overcomer by enjoying Christ as manna. Eat the open manna, and Christ will become the hidden manna. This hidden manna will constitute you into an overcomer. It will also fulfill the requirements of the inner law of life and bring you into peace. As a result, you will be an overcomer according to Revelation 2:17. (Life-study of Exodus, pp. 459-460) |

神吩咐百姓保存一俄梅珥吗哪,就是他们每天所收取和所吃的分量〔出十六16、32〕。这指明我们所吃基督的分量,就是我们能保存的分量。神没有吩咐我们在祂面前保存别样的食物。但祂的确要求我们保存一定分量的基督,与我们吃祂的分量相等。 只有我们所吃、所经历的基督才值得记念。我们所享受的基督要成为永远的记念,因为我们所经历、所享受的基督成了我们的构成。事实上祂成为神百姓重新构成的成分,就是使他们被重新构成的成分。我们所是、所有或所能的,都不值得记念。只有成为我们构成的基督才值得永远记念。我们在永世里所记念的,除了基督以外,没有别的。基督将成为我们的记念,直到世世代代。 按照圣经,这个对吗哪的记念,指明作为真吗哪的基督,乃是供应的源头,为着神的居所。基督对于神的百姓乃是属天的供应,为着神在地上的居所。……以色列人凭着吗哪作他们的供应,建造了帐幕。帐幕象征以色列人,他们因着吗哪得供应并被重新构成,就成了神真正的居所。在这意义上,吗哪的供应甚至成了帐幕。 我们在永世里将要回想关于基督的两方面:享受基督作为将我们重新构成的成分,以及基督作为使我们成为神在宇宙中居所的供应。这两方面都清楚地与我们今天在主恢复中的经历有关。借着接受基督作我们生命的供应,我们一次又一次的聚会享受基督作我们的构成成分,并且我们正在建造神的居所。我们经历基督的这些方面,在永世里要成为记念。不要以为我们到了永世就不记念今天的经历。反之,我们要记念我们曾如何享受基督,并如何接受祂作我们的供应,而成为神的居所。这就是在神面前保存作为记念的吗哪。 我们就等于旧约的帐幕。我们里面深处的灵乃是至圣所。在我们的灵中有作为神约柜的基督。我们没有吃的吗哪仍然公开在天空之下;但我们所吃的吗哪就隐藏在我们里面。许多基督徒只知道公开的吗哪。因为他们没有吃基督作他们的吗哪,就没有隐藏的吗哪。但对我们天天吃吗哪的人而言,公开的吗哪正变成隐藏的吗哪(出埃及记生命读经,五一八至五二一页)。 参读:出埃及记生命读经,第三十八至三十九篇。 |
God commanded the people to keep one omer of manna, the very amount they collected and ate each day [Exo. 16:16,32]. This indicates that the amount of Christ we eat is the amount we can preserve. God does not command us to preserve any other kind of food before Him. But He does require us to preserve an amount of Christ which equals the amount we have eaten of Him. Only the Christ we have eaten and experienced is worthy of remembrance. The Christ whom we enjoy will be an eternal memorial, because the Christ we experience and enjoy becomes our very constitution. He actually becomes the reconstituting element for God's people, that element which causes them to be reconstituted. Nothing of what we are, what we have, or what we can do is worthy of remembrance. Only the Christ who has become our constitution is worthy to be an eternal memorial. What we remember in eternity will be nothing other than Christ. For generation after generation, Christ will be our memorial. According to the Bible, this memorial of manna indicates that as the real manna Christ is the source of supply for God's dwelling place. Christ is the heavenly supply to God's people for God's dwelling place on earth…. With manna as their supply the children of Israel built the tabernacle. The tabernacle was a symbol of the children of Israel, who were the real dwelling place of God by being supplied with manna and reconstituted with it. In this sense, the supply of manna even became the tabernacle. What we shall recall concerning Christ in eternity will have two aspects: the aspect of the enjoyment of Christ as our reconstituting element and the aspect of Christ as the supply to make us God's dwelling place in the universe. These two aspects are clearly related to our experience in the Lord's recovery today. By taking Christ as our life supply, meeting after meeting we are enjoying Christ as our constituent, and we are building up God's dwelling place. These aspects of our experience of Christ will become a memorial in eternity. Do not think that when we are in eternity we shall not remember our experience today. On the contrary, we shall remember how we enjoyed Christ and how we took Him as our supply to become God's dwelling place. This is manna preserved as a memorial before God. We are identical to the tabernacle in the Old Testament. Our spirit deep within is the Holy of Holies. In our spirit we have Christ as the Ark of God. The manna not eaten by us remains open, under the sky. But the manna we eat becomes hidden within us. Many Christians know only the open manna. Because they do not eat Christ as their manna, they do not have the hidden manna. But to those of us who are daily eating of the manna, the open manna is becoming the hidden manna.
