旧约 - 约伯记(Job)第26章

Then Job replied:
"How you have helped the powerless! How you have saved the arm that is feeble!
What advice you have offered to one without wisdom! And what great insight you have displayed!
Who has helped you utter these words? And whose spirit spoke from your mouth?
"The dead are in deep anguish, those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
Death is naked before God; Destruction lies uncovered.
He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing.
He wraps up the waters in his clouds, yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
He covers the face of the full moon, spreading his clouds over it.
He marks out the horizon on the face of the waters for a boundary between light and darkness.
The pillars of the heavens quake, aghast at his rebuke.
By his power he churned up the sea; by his wisdom he cut Rahab to pieces.
By his breath the skies became fair; his hand pierced the gliding serpent.
And these are but the outer fringe of his works; how faint the whisper we hear of him! Who then can understand the thunder of his power?"
约伯记第廿六章   第 26 章 

  伯 26-31 章 > 在这长长的六章诗歌里,约伯要表达什么? 

  26-31 章 约伯以一首优美的信心诗歌,将神的神秘和权能交织在一起,成为书中最长的演说,共六章。开始时,他反驳了比勒法最后无关痛痒的回答( 25 章)。然后约伯告诉比勒达和他的朋友,他们不可能知道所有关于神的事情。智慧并不是从今生来的,也不是从人心里来的,而是源于神( 28:27-28 )。之后约伯为他的正直和忠实的生活辩护,他是实实在在地在生活中寻求神。他在承认自己不完美的同时,坚持说自己的动机纯正。 

  伯 26:2-4> 你分析、批评、指责别人时是否令人心悦诚服?原因呢? 

  26:2-4 约伯讽刺攻击比勒达的观点。他们的神学解释不能给人带来任何的解脱,因为他们无法将自己的知识变成有益的劝导。在与人相处的时候,有爱心和善解人意要比分析别人或劝告更为重要;怜悯要比批评和指责产生更大的效果。──《灵修版圣经注释》
