民數記20:22-29


20:22 以色列全會眾從加低斯起行,到了何珥山。
20:23
耶和華在附近以東邊界的何珥山上曉諭摩西、亞倫說:
20:24
「亞倫要歸到他列祖(原文是本民)那裡。他必不得入我所賜給以色列人的地;因為在米利巴水,你們違背了我的命。
20:25
你帶亞倫和他的兒子以利亞撒上何珥山,
20:26
把亞倫的聖衣脫下來,給他的兒子以利亞撒穿上;亞倫必死在那裡,歸他列祖。」
20:27
摩西就照耶和華所吩咐的行。三人當著會眾的眼前上了何珥山。
20:28
摩西把亞倫的聖衣脫下來,給他的兒子以利亞撒穿上,亞倫就死在山頂那裡。於是摩西和以利亞撒下了山。
20:29
全會眾,就是以色列全家,見亞倫已經死了,便都為亞倫哀哭了三十天。

22 The whole Israelite community set out from Kadesh and came to Mount Hor. 23 At Mount Hor, near the border of Edom, the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 24 “Aaron will be gathered to his people. He will not enter the land I give the Israelites, because both of you rebelled against my command at the waters of Meribah. 25 Get Aaron and his son Eleazar and take them up Mount Hor. 26 Remove Aaron’s garments and put them on his son Eleazar, for Aaron will be gathered to his people; he will die there.”
27 Moses did as the Lord commanded: They went up Mount Hor in the sight of the whole community. 28 Moses removed Aaron’s garments and put them on his son Eleazar. And Aaron died there on top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain, 29 and when the whole community learned that Aaron had died, all the Israelites mourned for him thirty days.

    服事的職位是來自上帝,不是個人強求的,就像亞倫可以成為祭司長,也是上帝親自的作為。然而人的年歲有限,不能永遠長存,就像米利暗和亞倫,總有服事的盡頭!

    就連地上的教會也有盡頭的時候,在怎麼樣當上帝的國從天而降的時候,都要轉變,要被提到空中與主相遇,地上的教會就轉化成為上帝永恆的國度了,不再分宗派,在基督裡合而為一了,都成了基督的國了!

    讓我們期盼那日快現,使上帝的榮耀充滿在新天新地,直到永遠!
