Scripture Reading: Ezra 1:2-5; 5:1-2; Hag. 1:1-14; 2:7b; Matt. 16:18; John 2:19-22; 14:2-3, 20
壹 
神需要一个家,祂要在其中作父,也需要一个国,祂要在其中作王;为此祂需要恢复─拉一2~5,约十四2,三5:
God needs a house where He is the Father and a kingdom where He is the King, and for this He needs the recovery—Ezra 1:2-5; John 14:2; 3:5:
一 
神的仇敌撒但霸占了地,使地成为他的家和他的国─太十二25~29。
Satan, the enemy of God, has usurped the earth, keeping the earth as his house and kingdom—Matt. 12:25-29.
二 
主需要祂的家和祂的国,以完成祂永远的经纶;这是神需要祂的子民从被掳中归回的原因─提前三15,罗十四17,弗二19~22。
The Lord wants His house and His kingdom in order to carry out His eternal economy; this is the reason that He needs a return of His people from their captivity—1 Tim. 3:15; Rom. 14:17; Eph. 2:19-22.
贰 
神的渴望是要我们在地上为祂建造一个居所,但只有在我们蒙拯救脱离世界,并且在神以外一无所有时,这事才能成就─出二五8,诗七三25~26,弗二1~12:
God's desire that we build a dwelling place for Him on earth can be fulfilled only if we have been delivered from the world and have nothing besides God Himself—Exo. 25:8; Psa. 73:25-26; Eph. 2:1-12:
一 
世界抵挡神的建造,神的建造反对世界─约十五18,约壹二17。
The world is against God's building, and God's building is opposed to the world—John 15:18; 1 John 2:17.
二 
我们要成为神的居所,就必须彻底认识世界,并且世界的元素必须从我们里面除净─罗十二2。
In order to be God's dwelling place, we must know the world in a thorough way, and the element of the world must be purged out of our being—Rom. 12:2.
叁 
关于建造神居所这件事,在神和祂仇敌之间有一场冲突,一场激烈的争战─拉四1~4,24,太十六18:
Regarding the building up of God's dwelling place, there is a conflict, a severe fighting, between God and His enemy—Ezra 4:1-4, 24; Matt. 16:18:
一 
仇敌不喜欢看见神居所的建造顺利进行,所以他尽其所能的打岔、干扰、拦阻、攻击并毁坏。
The enemy does not like to see the building of God's dwelling place going on in a good way; therefore, he will do everything he can to interrupt, interfere, frustrate, attack, and destroy.
二 
一切攻击、反对和恶言的目标,乃是要阻挠神居所的建造,使神的定旨不得完成。
The aim of all attack, opposition, and evil speaking is to hinder the building of God's dwelling place for the fulfillment of His purpose.
肆 
哈该的预言加强并鼓励百姓,使他们重建神的家,就是殿─该一1~14,二7下,拉五1~2:
The prophecy of Haggai strengthened and encouraged the people to build God's house, the temple—Hag. 1:1-14; 2:7b; Ezra 5:1-2:
一 
那些被掳归回的人只顾自己不顾神,只照顾自己的房屋,而不顾到耶和华的殿;(该一4;)九节的“奔向”一词,指明百姓忙于照顾自己的房屋。
The self-serving and God-neglecting returned captives were taking care of their houses but not Jehovah's house (Hag. 1:4); the word run in verse 9 indicates that the people were busy caring for their own houses.
二 
关于恢复建造神的殿,我们无法中立;我们必须绝对,或是先顾到自己的房屋,或是先顾到主的家─太六33,腓二20~21。
Regarding the recovery of the building of God's house, we cannot be neutral; we must be absolute, either taking care of our houses first or taking care of the Lord's house first—Matt. 6:33; Phil. 2:20-21.
伍 
主的恢复乃是恢复生命与建造─圣经里基本并中心的启示─创二9,启二一2:
The Lord's recovery is the recovery of life and building—the basic and central revelation in the Bible—Gen. 2:9; Rev. 21:2:
一 
生命与建造是整本圣经里的两个钥词。
Life and building are the two key words in the entire Bible.
二 
生命是为建造;建造是出于生命─约一1,4,十一25,十四2。
Life is for building, and building comes out of life—John 1:1, 4; 11:25; 14:2.
三 
生命是神自己;建造是经历神作生命的结果,也是神这生命在团体身体里的彰显─弗四18,16。
Life is God Himself, and building is the issue of the experience of God as life and the expression of God as life in a corporate Body—Eph. 4:18, 16.
陆 
约翰福音这卷奥秘的福音书,启示父的家在基督复活生命里的建造─二19~22:
The Gospel of John, the mystical Gospel, is a revelation of the building of the Father's house in the resurrection life of Christ—2:19-22:
一 
约翰福音是一卷论到生命与建造的书─三15,十四2~3:
The Gospel of John is a book on life and building—3:15; 14:2-3:
1 
生命是神借以得着并维持建造的凭借。
Life is the means by which God obtains and maintains the building.
2 
建造乃是三一神的扩大,扩展,使祂以团体的方式彰显祂自己─十五1~8。
Building is the enlargement, the expansion, of the Triune God, enabling Him to express Himself in a corporate way—15:1-8.
3 
按照约翰福音的启示,三一神正将祂自己分赐到祂的信徒里面,使他们成为神的建造,祂团体的彰显─十四1~31。
According to the revelation in the Gospel of John, the Triune God is dispensing Himself into His believers so that they may become the building of God, His corporate expression—14:1-31.
4 
我们说到神的建造,意思是三一神这生命正不断地作到我们里面,使我们成为祂独一的团体彰显─弗三16~17上,19下,21。
When we speak of the building of God, we mean that the Triune God as life is being wrought into us continually in order that we may become His unique corporate expression—Eph. 3:16-17a, 19b, 21.
二 
约翰二章启示生命的原则和生命的目的:
Chapter 2 of John reveals the principle of life and the purpose of life:
1 
生命的原则是变死亡为生命─1~11节。
The principle of life is to change death into life—vv. 1-11.
2 
生命的目的是建造神的家─12~22节。
The purpose of life is to build the house of God—vv. 12-22.
3 
生命的原则和生命的目的,二者都与复活有关:
The principle of life and the purpose of life are both related to resurrection:
a 
“第三日”(1节)是复活的日子─林前十五4,徒十40。
The third day (v. 1) is the day of resurrection—1 Cor. 15:4; Acts 10:40.
b 
“三日内”(约二19)指在复活里所发生的事。
In three days (John 2:19) refers to something that takes place in resurrection.
三 
主在约翰二章十九节的话,是预言祂的死与复活:
The Lord's word in John 2:19 was a prophecy concerning His death and resurrection:
1 
祂启示祂要在复活里重建圣殿─21~22节。
He revealed that He would rebuild the temple in resurrection—vv. 21-22.
2 
二章十九节里所预言神殿(家)的重建和扩大,应验于十四章二节,在那里主说到父的家连同其许多住处。
The rebuilding and enlargement of the temple, the house, of God prophesied in 2:19 is fulfilled in 14:2, where the Lord speaks of the Father's house with its many abodes.
四 
基督借着祂的死并在祂的复活里,建造父的家─二19,十四2:
It was through His death and in His resurrection that Christ built the Father's house—2:19; 14:2:
1 
召会作基督的身体和神的家,乃是在复活里─弗一22~23,提前三15。
The church as the Body of Christ and the house of God is in resurrection— Eph. 1:22-23; 1 Tim. 3:15.
2 
因着召会的性质是复活,因此召会乃是能耐得住死亡攻击的实体─太十六18,徒二24。
Because the nature of the church is resurrection, the church is a being that can endure the attack of death—Matt. 16:18; Acts 2:24.
五 
我们若要在基督身体的实际里,就需要完全在基督复活的生命里─约十一25,林前十五45下。
If we would be in the reality of the Body of Christ, we need to be absolutely in the resurrection life of Christ—John 11:25; 1 Cor. 15:45b.
六 
我们应当借着基督的死与复活建造起来,使我们与神调和在一起,成为相互的居所,就是父的家,神的建造─三一神团体的彰显─约十四2~3,20。
We should be built up through Christ's death and resurrection so that we and God can be mingled together to become a mutual abode, the Father's house, God's building—the corporate expression of the Triune God—John 14:2-3, 20.
