贰 在行传十三章保罗说，从大卫的后裔中，“神已经照着所应许的，给以色列带来一位救主，就是耶稣”（23），并且“神已经……完全应验〔这应许〕，叫耶稣复活了，正如诗篇第二篇上所记：‘你是我的儿子，我今日生了你’”（徒十三33）： |
Ⅱ In Acts 13 Paul says that from David's seed "God, according to promise, brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus" (v. 23), and that "God has fully fulfilled this promise…in raising up Jesus, as it is also written in the second Psalm, 'You are My Son; this day have I begotten You'" (v. 33): |
一 在行传十三章三十二至三十三节我们看见，基督作为神的长子，乃是神向祖宗的应许，并且神借着叫耶稣复活，应验这应许。 |
A In verses 32 and 33 we see that Christ as the firstborn Son of God was promised to the fathers, and God fulfilled this promise by raising up Jesus. |
二 复活对那人耶稣乃是出生： |
B Resurrection was a birth to the man Jesus: |
１ 在复活里，祂被神生为许多弟兄中的长子—罗八29。 |
１ He was begotten by God in His resurrection to be the firstborn Son of God among many brothers—Rom. 8:29. |
２ 祂从永远就是神的独生子—约一18，三16。 |
２ He was the only begotten Son of God from eternity—John 1:18; 3:16. |
３ 成为肉体以后，祂借着复活，在人性里被神生为神的长子—来一6。 |
３ After His incarnation, through resurrection He was begotten by God in His humanity to be God's firstborn Son—Heb. 1:6. |
三 保罗能在诗篇二篇七节看见主的复活：“你是我的儿子，我今日生了你”： |
C Paul was able to see the Lord's resurrection in Psalm 2:7: "You are My Son; / Today I have begotten You": |
１ 保罗把“今日”一辞应用到主复活的日子。 |
１ Paul applies the word today to the day of the Lord's resurrection. |
２ 这就是说，基督的复活就是祂生为神的长子。 |
２ This means that Christ's resurrection was His birth as the firstborn Son of God. |
３ 人子耶稣借着从死人中复活，生为神的儿子；所以，神使耶稣从死人中复活，乃是将祂生为神的长子—徒十三33。 |
３ Jesus, the Son of Man, was born to be the Son of God through being raised from the dead; therefore, God's raising up Jesus from the dead was His begetting of Him to be His firstborn Son—Acts 13:33. |
四 神的独生子借着成为肉体穿上人性，成了神人（约一14、18，路一35）；然后这神人在复活里由神而生，成为神的长子（徒十三33，来一6，罗八29）： |
D Through incarnation God's only begotten Son put on humanity and became the God-man (John 1:14, 18; Luke 1:35); then in resurrection this God-man was born of God to be His Firstborn (Acts 13:33; Heb. 1:6; Rom. 8:29): |
１ 神的独生子在成为肉体以前，没有属人的性情，只有神圣的性情。 |
１ Before incarnation God's only begotten Son did not have the human nature; He had only the divine nature. |
２ 神的长子在复活里，有神圣的性情，也有属人的性情。 |
２ In resurrection God's firstborn Son has the human nature as well as the divine nature. |
五 基督借着祂的复活，生为神的长子，同时祂所有的信徒也生为神许多的儿子—彼前一3，来二10： |
E Through His resurrection Christ was born to be the firstborn Son, and at the same time all His believers were born to be the many sons of God—1 Pet. 1:3; Heb. 2:10: |
１ 在神许多儿子当中，只有长子是神的独生子—彼前一3，来二10。2 这位神的独生子在祂复活的人性里，也是神的长子—罗八29。 |
１ Among these many sons, only the Firstborn is God's only begotten Son—1 Pet. 1:3; Heb. 2:10. |
３ 神的长子兼有神性和人性，我们这些作神许多儿子的信徒，也兼具属人的性情和神圣的性情—彼后一4。 |
２ This only begotten Son of God, in His resurrected humanity, is also the firstborn Son of God—Rom. 8:29. |
晨兴喂养
徒十三32~33 我们也传福音给你们，就是那给祖宗的应许，神已经向我们这作儿女的完全应验，叫耶稣复活了，正如诗篇第二篇上所记：“你是我的儿子，我今日生了你。” 〔基督〕是神的长子，是大卫那圣的，那可靠的。赦罪是借这一位传给人的，凡信祂的，就在一切事上得了称义。 在行传十三章三十二至三十三节，……我们……看见，基督作神的长子，乃是神向祖宗的应许，神借着叫耶稣复活，向他们的儿女应验这应许。……在复活里，祂被神生为许多弟兄中的长子（罗八29）。祂从永远就是神的独生子（约一18，三16）。成为肉体以后，祂借着复活，在人性里被神生为长子（新约总论第九册，二八○页）。 |
信息选读
保罗能在诗篇第二篇，“你是我的儿子，我今日生了你”（7）这话中，看见主的复活。保罗把“今日”一辞应用到主复活的日子。……人子耶稣借着神使祂从死人中复活，生为神的儿子。所以，神使耶稣从死人中复活，乃是将祂生为神的长子。 主耶稣有两次出生。首先，祂由马利亚生为人子。然后，在三十三年半以后，祂被钉十字架、埋葬并从死人中复活。借着复活，祂有了第二次的出生。作为人，祂在复活里生为神的儿子。因此，在祂的第一次出生里，祂是由马利亚生为人的儿子；在祂的第二次出生里，祂是在复活里由神生为神的儿子。 按照新约，祂在两方面是神的儿子。第一，祂是神的独生子；第二，祂如今是神的长子。“独生”一辞指明神只有一个儿子。约翰一章十八节和三章十六节说到神的独生子。就永远来说，基督是神的独生子，这是祂永远的身分。但是借着复活，祂乃是人而生为神的长子。“长子”一辞指明神如今有许多儿子（来二10）。罗马八章二十九节和希伯来一章六节都说到基督是长子。我们这些相信基督的人，是神许多的儿子，是主许多的弟兄，神长子的许多弟兄（罗八29）。 就神的独生子而言，主是神圣生命的具体化身。约翰福音强调耶稣基督是神的儿子；作为神的儿子，祂乃是神圣生命的具体化身（一4）。借着复活，基督成为神的长子，就是生命的分赐者，来为着生命的繁殖。首先祂是独生子，是生命的具体化身；现今祂是长子，是为着生命的繁殖。借着祂在复活里成为神的长子，神圣的生命已经分赐到所有相信祂的人里面，使具体化身在祂里面的生命得以繁殖。 在行传十三章……保罗不是传讲基督为神的独生子，如约翰福音所作的；保罗在这里乃是传讲基督为神的长子，为着繁殖。为这缘故，他传讲主耶稣的复活是祂第二次的出生。借着祂第二次的出生，祂在复活里的出生，基督成了神的长子，为着神圣生命的繁殖。 在行传十三章三十四节保罗进一步说到基督的复活：“论到神叫祂从死人中复活，不再归于朽坏，就这样说：‘我必将大卫那圣的，那可靠的，赐给你们。’”三十三至三十四节论到复活的基督。三十三节指明，基督的复活是祂第二次的出生，将祂生为神的长子（新约总论第九册，二八○至二八二页）。 参读：新约总论，第二百九十三篇。 |
Acts 13:32-33 And we announce to you the gospel of the promise made to the fathers, that God has fully fulfilled this promise to us their children in raising up Jesus, as it is also written in the second Psalm, “You are My Son; this day have I begotten You.” As the Firstborn of God, [Christ] is the holy and faithful things of David. Through such a One, forgiveness of sins is announced, and whoever believes in Him is justified from all things. In Acts 13:32-33…we see that Christ as the Firstborn of God was promised to the fathers, and God fulfilled this promise to their children in raising up Jesus…He was begotten by God in His resurrection to be the firstborn Son of God among many brothers (Rom. 8:29). He was the only begotten Son of God from eternity (John 1:18; 3:16). After incarnation, through resurrection, He was begotten by God in His humanity to be God’s firstborn Son.
