一
基督的丰富就是基督之于我们的所是，就如光、生命、公义、圣别，祂为我们所有的、所完成的、所达到的、以及所得着的；基督的这些丰富是测不透、追不尽的。
The riches of Christ are what Christ is to us, such as light, life, righteousness, and holiness, what He has for us, and what He accomplished, attained, and obtained for us; these riches of Christ are unsearchable and untraceable.

二
基督的丰富包括祂之于我们的所是─作为神有神圣的属性、作为人有人性的美德、并作为宇宙中一切正面事物的实际─约一1，14，罗九5，提前二5，西二16~17。
The riches of Christ include what He is to us as God with the divine attributes, as man with the human virtues, and as the reality of every positive thing in the universe—John 1:1, 14; Rom. 9:5; 1 Tim. 2:5; Col. 2:16-17.

三
那有追测不尽之丰富的包罗万有的基督，乃是真实的光、生命、气息、水、食物、衣服和住处─约一4~5，八12，十一25，二十22，四14，六48，十四2~3，十五1，4~5，路十五22。
The all-inclusive Christ with His unsearchable riches is the real light, life, breath, water, food, clothing, and dwelling place—John 1:4-5; 8:12; 11:25; 20:22; 4:14; 6:48; 14:2-3; 15:1, 4-5; Luke 15:22.

四
我们是信徒，需要认识并经历基督那追测不尽的丰富，这些丰富是为着产生召会作祂的彰显─弗三8，10，21，一22~23：
As believers, we need to know and experience the unsearchable riches of Christ, which are for the producing of the church as His expression—Eph. 3:8, 10, 21; 1:22-23:
As believers, we need to know and experience the unsearchable riches of Christ, which are for the producing of the church as His expression—Eph. 3:8, 10, 21; 1:22-23:
１
这经历是借着神圣的分赐将基督分赐到我们里面所发生的；基督越多分赐到我们里面，我们所得着的生命就越多、越刚强、越丰富，召会生活也就越拔高─3~14节。
This experience takes place through the divine dispensing of Christ into us; the more Christ is dispensed into us, the more life we have, the stronger life we have, the richer life we have, and the more uplifted the church life becomes—vv. 3-14.
This experience takes place through the divine dispensing of Christ into us; the more Christ is dispensed into us, the more life we have, the stronger life we have, the richer life we have, and the more uplifted the church life becomes—vv. 3-14.
２
基督的丰富产生召会，乃是借着我们对基督的经历和享受─三8，四16，西二9，19，一18：
The riches of Christ produce the church through our experience and enjoy-ment of Christ—3:8; 4:16; Col. 2:9, 19; 1:18:
The riches of Christ produce the church through our experience and enjoy-ment of Christ—3:8; 4:16; Col. 2:9, 19; 1:18:
ａ
在基督那一面，是分赐的事；在我们这一面，是经历和享受的事─弗一3~14，彼前一8，二2~3。
On Christ's side it is a matter of dispensing; on our side it is a matter of experience and enjoyment—Eph. 1:3-14; 1 Pet. 1:8; 2:2-3.
On Christ's side it is a matter of dispensing; on our side it is a matter of experience and enjoyment—Eph. 1:3-14; 1 Pet. 1:8; 2:2-3.
ｂ
我们经历并享受那分赐到我们里面的基督，就成为正确召会生活的一部分─罗八11，十二4~5，十六1，4~5。
When we experience and enjoy the Christ who is dispensed into us, we become part of the proper church life—Rom. 8:11; 12:4-5; 16:1, 4-5.
When we experience and enjoy the Christ who is dispensed into us, we become part of the proper church life—Rom. 8:11; 12:4-5; 16:1, 4-5.
ｃ
借着吸取基督的丰富，我们就成为基督的身体，作祂的丰满彰显祂─西二6~7，9~10，19，弗三16~21。
By absorbing the riches of Christ, we become the Body of Christ as His fullness to express Him—Col. 2:6-7, 9-10, 19; Eph. 3:16-21.
By absorbing the riches of Christ, we become the Body of Christ as His fullness to express Him—Col. 2:6-7, 9-10, 19; Eph. 3:16-21.
ｄ
基督的身体是由我们所经历、享受、并吸收之基督的丰富构成的─8节，一22~23。
The Body of Christ is constituted with the riches of Christ that have been experienced, enjoyed, and assimilated by us—v. 8; 1:22-23.
The Body of Christ is constituted with the riches of Christ that have been experienced, enjoyed, and assimilated by us—v. 8; 1:22-23.
３
基督那追测不尽的丰富就是神格的丰满；神格的丰满成了基督那追测不尽的丰富，得以分赐到我们里面，给我们经历并享受─西二9，弗三8。
The unsearchable riches of Christ are the fullness of the Godhead; the fullness of the Godhead has become the unsearchable riches of Christ to be dispensed into us for our experience and enjoyment—Col. 2:9; Eph. 3:8.
The unsearchable riches of Christ are the fullness of the Godhead; the fullness of the Godhead has become the unsearchable riches of Christ to be dispensed into us for our experience and enjoyment—Col. 2:9; Eph. 3:8.
贰
保罗论到基督那追测不尽之丰富的话，见于以弗所书，这是很有意义的─8节：
It is significant that Paul's word concerning the unsearchable riches of Christ is found in the book of Ephesians—v. 8:
It is significant that Paul's word concerning the unsearchable riches of Christ is found in the book of Ephesians—v. 8:
一
我们若要认识这些追测不尽之丰富的真实意义，就需要看整卷以弗所书的上下文，看见这卷书中所启示深奥之事的异象─一10，三16~21，四4~6，15~16，五32。
If we would know the real significance of these unsearchable riches, we need to consider the context of the whole book of Ephesians, seeing a vision of the profound matters revealed in this Epistle—1:10; 3:16-21; 4:4-6, 15-16; 5:32.

二
三章八节的“追测不尽”一辞，该使我们看见，基督那追测不尽的丰富必是指那些深奥、远超我们所能领会的事。
The word unsearchable in 3:8 should cause us to realize that the unsearchable riches of Christ must refer to matters that are profound, far beyond our under-standing.
The word unsearchable in 3:8 should cause us to realize that the unsearchable riches of Christ must refer to matters that are profound, far beyond our under-standing.
三
我们需要铭记一个事实：要认识基督那追测不尽的丰富，需要考量整卷以弗所书，看见这卷书中不同的辞句，如何表达基督那追测不尽的丰富：
We need to be deeply impressed with the fact that in order to know Christ's unsearchable riches, we need to consider the entire book of Ephesians and see how various expressions in this book convey the unsearchable riches of Christ:

１
在一章十七至二十三节保罗祷告，愿我们有智慧和启示的灵，使我们知道三件重大且深奥的事：神的呼召有何等盼望，神在圣徒中之基业的荣耀有何等丰富，神的能力向着我们这信的人是何等超越的浩大。
In 1:17-23 Paul prayed that we would have a spirit of wisdom and reve-lation to know three great and profound matters: the hope of God's calling, the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe.

以弗所一章十节说到“时期满足时的经纶，要将万有，无论是在诸天之上的，或是在地上的，都在基督里归一于一个元首之下”：
Ephesians 1:10 speaks of "the economy of the fullness of the times, to head up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in Him":

ａ
神已使基督为万有的头；借着神在所有世代中一切的安排，万有要在新天新地里，在基督里归一于一个元首之下─22，10节，启二一1。
God made Christ the Head over all things; through all the dispensa-tions of God in all the ages, all things will be headed up in Christ in the new heaven and new earth—vv. 22, 10; Rev. 21:1.

ｂ
神的经纶乃是神照着祂的愿望，在祂自己里面定意计划的，要将万有在基督里归一于一个元首之下；这是借着把作生命元素的三一神丰盈生命的供应，分赐到我们里面，使我们从死境中起来，并联于身体而成就的─弗一23，罗八11，十二4~5。
The economy that God, according to His desire, planned and purposed in Himself is to head up all things in Christ; this is accomplished by the dispensing of the abundant life supply of the Triune God as the life factor into us so that we may rise up from the death situation and be attached to the Body—Eph. 1:23; Rom. 8:11; 12:4-5.

３
以弗所一章二十三节说，基督是那在万有中充满万有者；因着基督是那在万有中充满万有者，祂的丰富是追测不尽的。
Ephesians 1:23 says that Christ is the One who fills all in all; because Christ is the One who fills all in all, His riches are unsearchable.

参
如创世记二十四章的预表里所描绘的，我们越经历基督的丰富，就越受吸引归向祂，并愿意联于祂，作祂的配偶，使祂得着满足─22，35~36，53，58节：
As portrayed in the type in Genesis 24, the more we experience the riches of Christ, the more we are attracted to Him and are willing to be joined to Him as His counterpart for His satisfaction—vv. 22, 35-36, 53, 58:

一
给利百加的金鼻环和金手镯、银器、金器和衣服，连同给她哥哥和她母亲的宝物，象征基督那追测不尽的丰富─22，53节，弗三8。
The gold nose-ring and bracelets, the silver and gold jewelry, and the clothing given to Rebekah, along with the precious things given to her brother and mother, symbolize the unsearchable riches of Christ—vv. 22, 53; Eph. 3:8.

二
仆人向利百加见证以撒的丰富，又把这丰富中的一些给利百加作预尝─创二四35~36：
The servant testified to Rebekah concerning Isaac's riches and gave some of these riches to Rebekah as a foretaste—Gen. 24:35-36:
The servant testified to Rebekah concerning Isaac's riches and gave some of these riches to Rebekah as a foretaste—Gen. 24:35-36:
１
这使利百加受吸引归向以撒，虽然从来没有见过他，却愿意离开父家，去成为他的妻子。
This caused Rebekah to be attracted to Isaac and made her willing to leave her father's house to be his wife, even though she had never seen him.
This caused Rebekah to be attracted to Isaac and made her willing to leave her father's house to be his wife, even though she had never seen him.
２
同样的，那灵临到基督的信徒，向他们见证基督的丰富，就是祂从父所领受的，使他们受吸引归向基督；他们虽然没有见过祂，却是爱祂，并且撇下世界，丢弃肉体中天然的关系，而联于基督─约十六13~15，太十九29，彼前一8。
In the same manner the Spirit comes to Christ's believers and testifies to them of the riches of Christ, which He has received from the Father, caus-ing them to be attracted to Christ and to love Him, forsake the world, and leave their natural relations in the flesh to be joined to Christ, even though they have never seen Him—John 16:13-15; Matt. 19:29; 1 Pet. 1:8.

３
利百加在美地面见以撒之前，已经借着仆人的礼物，有份于并享受以撒所承继的；同样的，我们在面见基督之前，就享受了那灵的恩赐，作为对基督丰富之全享的预尝─来六4，罗八23。
Before Rebekah met Isaac in the good land, she had participated in and enjoyed Isaac's inheritance through the servant's gifts; likewise, before we meet Christ, we enjoy the gifts of the Spirit as a foretaste of the full taste of His riches—Heb. 6:4; Rom. 8:23.
