Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, then to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season. – HEB. 11. 25.
他宁可选择和神的子民同受苦难,也不愿暂时享受罪中之乐。- 希伯来书 11:25
In “Moses’ His Choice,” Jeremiah Burroughs delves into the profound decision-making process of Moses, the revered biblical figure.
在《摩西的选择》一书中,杰里米·巴勒斯深入探讨了备受尊崇的圣经人物摩西的深刻决策过程。
Having explored Moses’ self-denial and the circumstances that led him to refuse worldly glory, Burroughs now examines the pivotal moment when Moses made his remarkable choice.
在探讨了摩西对自我的否定以及导致他拒绝世俗荣耀的种种情况之后,巴勒斯现在审视摩西做出了那个非凡选择的关键时刻。
Despite the allure of power, prestige, and favor within the Egyptian court, Moses willingly chose to identify himself with the suffering and afflicted people of God.
尽管埃及王室权力、声望和恩宠诱人,摩西却自愿选择与神受苦难的子民同身受。
Aware that this choice would entail sharing in their afflictions, Moses recognized that honoring God in a state of affliction held greater value than indulging in worldly glory.
摩西意识到这一选择意味着要与他们同受苦难,他认识到在苦难中尊崇上帝比沉浸在世俗荣耀中更有价值。
Within the pages of this thought-provoking book, Burroughs exposes the internal dialogues that Moses might have encountered.
在这本发人深省的书中,巴勒斯揭示了摩西可能遭遇的内心对话。
Moses could have reasoned that by retaining his position and influence in the court, he could have been an instrumental advocate for God’s people.
摩西可能会这样推理:通过保持在王室的地位和影响力,他可以成为上帝子民的有力倡导者。
He could have played a crucial role in leveraging his favor with Pharaoh and the nobles to alleviate the plight of his fellow Israelites. The importance of having a sympathetic ally in the court to champion their cause could not be understated.
他可以发挥关键作用,利用自己在法老和贵族那里的恩宠来缓解同胞以色列人的困境。在朝中拥有一个同情心的盟友为他们的事业代言是非常重要的。
Moreover, Moses might have contemplated the remarkable sequence of providential events that led him to his current position of honor. From his miraculous rescue as an infant to his upbringing in Pharaoh’s household, Moses witnessed God’s hand guiding every step of his journey.
此外,摩西可能会深思那一连串令人难以置信的天意安排,将他领至如今的尊贵地位。从他奇迹般的婴儿时期获救,到在法老的家中长大,摩西亲眼目睹上帝的手在引导他一路前行。
His elevated education in Egyptian wisdom, the favor bestowed upon him by Pharaoh, and the respect he garnered from the nobles and the court—these were all indications that God had a significant purpose for him within the confines of the Egyptian power structure.
他受过高深的埃及智慧教育,获得法老的恩宠,赢得贵族和朝臣的尊重——这一切都预示着上帝在埃及权力结构中为他留有重要的使命。
However, Moses’ decision to join the afflicted people of God prevailed over these compelling reasons. Burroughs illuminates the internal struggle within Moses, emphasizing his trust in God’s intentions.
然而,摩西决定与神受苦难的子民同在,战胜了这些令人信服的理由。巴勒斯阐明了摩西内心的挣扎,强调他对上帝旨意的信靠。
Moses recognized that jeopardizing his standing in the court by provoking Pharaoh’s wrath would indeed be a loss for him personally. But the potential loss for the people of God would be even greater, as their hopes for relief and deliverance would diminish.
摩西意识到,惹怒法老而危及自己在朝中的地位确实对他个人是一种损失。但对上帝子民而言,潜在的损失将更大,因为他们对解脱和拯救的希望将减弱。
Moses understood that alienating Pharaoh could lead to increased oppression and hardship for his fellow Israelites.
摩西明白,疏远法老可能会加重同胞以色列人所受的压迫和苦难。
In “Moses’ His Choice,” readers are invited to explore the weighty considerations faced by Moses and the profound implications of his ultimate decision.
在《摩西的选择》一书中,读者被邀请探索摩西所面临的重大考量,以及他最终决定的深远影响。
Burroughs uncovers the timeless principles that emerge from Moses’ story, inspiring readers to reflect on their own choices and priorities in the pursuit of a life that honors God.
巴勒斯揭示了摩西故事中涌现的永恒原则,启发读者在追求荣耀上帝的生活时反思自己的抉择和优先事项。
Join Jeremiah Burroughs as he navigates the complexities of decision-making, inviting readers to ponder the significance of self-denial, divine providence, and the enduring pursuit of God’s purpose.
让我们与杰里米·巴勒斯一起探索决策的复杂性,思考自我否定、神圣旨意和持续追求上帝目的的重要意义。
“Moses’ His Choice” serves as a compelling guide, challenging readers to embrace the path less traveled and discover the profound blessings that await those who choose to walk in obedience to God’s calling.
《摩西的选择》是一本引人入胜的指南,它挑战读者踏上少有人走的道路,发现那些遵从上帝呼召而行的人所能获得的深刻祝福。
