7:8 我對著沒有嫁娶的和寡婦說，若他們常像我就好。
7:9 倘若自己禁止不住，就可以嫁娶，與其慾火攻心，倒不如嫁娶為妙。
*************
由此可見保羅是位通人性之牧者，他不是以仁義道德過嘴邊，要求人做無法辦到之事。
教會應本於此原則接納寡婦再嫁。因為姐妹在保羅那個時代通常較需要倚靠丈夫，才能於生活上不匱乏。今日雖然女性地位已提高，經濟較獨立自主，但是仍然有感情之需要，所以教會要接納寡婦再嫁。
當然，這也是體諒人性之軟弱，正如保羅所言：『倘若自己禁止不住，就可以嫁娶，與其慾火攻心，倒不如嫁娶為妙。』
6:12 有人告訴大衛王說：「耶和華因為約櫃賜福給俄別‧以東的家和一切屬他的。」大衛就去，歡歡喜喜地將上帝的約櫃從俄別‧以東家中抬到大衛的城裡。
6:13 抬耶和華約櫃的人走了六步，大衛就獻牛與肥羊為祭。
6:14 大衛穿著細麻布的以弗得，在耶和華面前極力跳舞。
6:15 這樣，大衛和以色列的全家歡呼吹角，將耶和華的約櫃抬上來。
6:16 耶和華的約櫃進了大衛城的時候，掃羅的女兒米甲從窗戶裡觀看，見大衛王在耶和華面前踴躍跳舞，心裡就輕視他。
6:17 眾人將耶和華的約櫃請進去，安放在所預備的地方，就是在大衛所搭的帳幕裡。大衛在耶和華面前獻燔祭和平安祭。
6:18 大衛獻完了燔祭和平安祭，就奉萬軍之耶和華的名給民祝福，
6:19 並且分給以色列眾人，無論男女，每人一個餅，一塊肉，一個葡萄餅；眾人就各回各家去了。
12 Now King David was told, “The Lord has blessed the household of Obed-Edom and everything he has, because of the ark of God.” So David went to bring up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with rejoicing. 13 When those who were carrying the ark of the Lord had taken six steps, he sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf. 14 Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might, 15 while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the Lord with shouts and the sound of trumpets.
16 As the ark of the Lord was entering the City of David, Michal daughter of Saul watched from a window. And when she saw King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, she despised him in her heart.
17 They brought the ark of the Lord and set it in its place inside the tent that David had pitched for it, and David sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before the Lord. 18 After he had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord Almighty. 19 Then he gave a loaf of bread, a cake of dates and a cake of raisins to each person in the whole crowd of Israelites, both men and women. And all the people went to their homes.

上帝喜歡人用歡樂的方式來敬拜祂，就像大衛迎接約櫃來到耶路撒冷，是穿著細麻布的以弗得，在耶和華面前極力跳舞！
不僅如此，大衛將耶和華的約櫃請進去，安放在所預備的地方，就是在大衛所搭的帳幕裡。大衛在耶和華面前獻燔祭和平安祭。獻平安祭正是與以色列民分享敬拜上帝的喜樂：奉萬軍之耶和華的名給民祝福，並且分給以色列眾人，無論男女，每人一個餅，一塊肉，一個葡萄餅；眾人就各回各家去了。
這是一個多麼滿足與歡樂的氣氛！因為，參與的人都享受到上帝所賜的平安與福分，這正是禮拜的意義！願我們每週的主日禮拜也是充滿上帝同在的平安與喜樂！
以色列人，無論男女，凡甘心樂意獻禮物給耶和華的，都將禮物拿來，做耶和華藉摩西所吩咐的一切工。
All the Israelite men and women who were willing brought to the Lord freewill offerings for all the work the Lord through Moses had commanded them to do.
**************
以色列人建會幕是上帝的作為，不是出於摩西的熱心和自己的聰明。不僅摩西宣告自己所領受的啟示，上帝更是感動以色列百姓來配合，正如這裡所敘述：「以色列人，無論男女，凡甘心樂意獻禮物給耶和華的，都將禮物拿來！」
這也告訴我們，人不是憑自己的想像和熱心來事奉上帝，不是讀了一兩節經文就覺得是上帝的感動。而是需要經過長期禱告查驗，和尋求聖靈的引導與環境的應證，才能肯定上帝真正的引導。
所以，我們若認定上帝要我們做甚麼事工或賜下什麼異象，絕不可以因一時的衝動，冒然行事，一定要查驗清楚，才不會浪費自己和別人的生命與時間，是後來後悔已晚了！
