    And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy Glory – EXODUS 33:18

    摩西说:求祢显出祢的荣耀给我看。——出埃及记三十三章十八节

    THESE are the words of an Old Testament Saint; of that Moses, who, as a servant, was faithful over all the house of God.

    这是一位旧约圣徒的话;就是那摩西的话,他作为仆人,在神的全家尽忠。

    True piety is the same in substance in all ages, and points at one thing as its centre and its rest, the knowledge and enjoyment of God.

    真正的敬虔在所有世代的实质都是相同的,并指向一件事作为其中心和安息,就是对神的认识和享受。

    In the preceding verses, Moses had been employed in earnest prayer and intercession for the people of Israel.

    在前面的经文中,摩西一直在为以色列民恳切祷告和代求。

    He had met with success and acceptance in these requests; for it is said, in the 14th verse, “My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.”

    他在这些请求中遇到了成功和悦纳;因为在第十四节说:”我必亲自和你同去,使你得安息。”

    And in the 17th, “And the Lord said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken; for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.”

    在第十七节,”耶和华对摩西说:你这所求的我也要行,因为你在我眼前蒙了恩,并且我按你的名认识你。”

    The condescension of a gracious God, though it satisfies, does not extinguish the desires of his saints, but rather makes them more ardent and importunate; for he immediately adds, in the words of the text, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.

    恩慈的神的俯就,虽然使人满足,却不会熄灭祂圣徒的渴望,反而使他们更加热切和迫切;因为他立即在经文中加上:求祢显出祢的荣耀给我看。

    It is highly probable, from what follows, that this desire included more than was proper for the present state; yet such a discovery as was possible, or could be useful to him, is graciously promised, “And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee; and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.”

    从接下来的内容来看,极有可能这个渴望包含了超过当下状态所适宜的;然而那种可能的,或对他有益的显现,却得到恩慈的应许,”耶和华说:我要显我一切的恩慈,在你面前经过,宣告我的名。我要恩待谁就恩待谁;要怜悯谁就怜悯谁。”

    My dear brethren, it is our distinguished privilege, that we have daily unmolested access to the house and ordinances of God.

    我亲爱的弟兄们,我们有一个显著的特权,就是我们每日可以不受干扰地进入神的殿和蒙恩之道。

    We ought to rejoice, that we have so many clear and express promises of the divine presence, in New Testament worship.

    我们应当欢喜,因为我们在新约的敬拜中有这么多清楚而明确的神同在的应许。

    But what cause have we to be ashamed, that we are so exceeding prone to stop short in the thereshold, to content ourselves with the mere form, instead of earnestly breathing after real, inward, and sensible communion with God?

    但我们有什么理由羞愧呢,因为我们如此极其倾向于止步在门槛上,满足于仅仅的形式,而不是恳切地渴慕与神真实的、内在的、可感知的相交?

    I have therefore chosen this subject, in the view of that solemn ordinance, The Lord’s Supper, where we have a sensible representation of Christ crucified, the great mean of our access to God, that we may serve him on that occasion particularly, and the remaining part of our lives habitually, in spirit and in truth.

    因此我选择了这个主题,为了那庄严的圣礼,主的晚餐,在那里我们有基督被钉十字架的可感知的象征,这是我们进到神面前的伟大途径,使我们可以在那特别的场合服事祂,并在我们生命的余下部分习惯性地,用心灵和诚实服事祂。

    And, Oh, that we may have daily more experience of the sweetness and benefit of his service on earth! and may daily long more for that time, when we shall serve him in a manner infinitely more perfect and joyful in his temple above!

    哦,愿我们每日更多地经历在地上服事祂的甘甜和益处!并且愿我们每日更加渴慕那时刻,那时我们将在祂天上的圣殿中以无限更完全和喜乐的方式服事祂!

    In discoursing on this subject, I propose, in dependance on divine strength.

    在讲论这个主题时,我提议,依靠神圣的力量。

    I. To explain what is the object of a saint’s desire, when he faith in the words of Moses, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.

    一、解释当圣徒用摩西的话说”求祢显出祢的荣耀给我看”时,他渴望的对象是什么。

    II. To improve the subject—particularly by pointing out what is the most proper preparation for such a discovery.

    二、应用这个主题——特别是指出为这样的显现作最恰当的预备是什么。
