以掃見父親不喜歡迦南的女子
為了要得著父親的祝福
又去娶了以實瑪利的女兒為妻
這一切只為求所是的行為
值得你我探究
祝福很好
但求祝福的行為卻值得商榷
人人都喜歡祝福
但以行為換取祝福
卻是人自以為是的傻勁
你我的上帝並非是有求必應公
耶和華若是如此的神
那就不會有公義的行動
信仰並非是利益的交換
而是生命的交託與實踐
願你我以愛長存心中
接受上帝給予的一切
當順境與逆境都能泰然處之
平安的心自然能領受祝福
創世記
28:1 以撒叫了雅各來,給他祝福,並囑咐他說:「你不要娶迦南的女子為妻。
Then Isaac called Jacob and blessed him, and charged him, "You shall not marry one of the Canaanite women.
28:2 你起身往巴旦‧亞蘭去,到你外祖彼土利家裡,在你母舅拉班的女兒中娶一女為妻。
Arise, go to Paddan-aram to the house of Bethu'el your mother's father; and take as wife from there one of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.
28:3 願全能的 神賜福給你,使你生養眾多,成為多族,
God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, that you may become a company of peoples.
28:4 將應許亞伯拉罕的福賜給你和你的後裔,使你承受你所寄居的地為業,就是 神賜給亞伯拉罕的地。」
May he give the blessing of Abraham to you and to your descendants with you, that you may take possession of the land of your sojournings which God gave to Abraham!"
28:5 以撒打發雅各走了,他就往巴旦‧亞蘭去,到亞蘭人彼土利的兒子拉班那裡。拉班是雅各、以掃的母舅。
Thus Isaac sent Jacob away; and he went to Paddan-aram to Laban, the son of Bethu'el the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
28:6 以掃見以撒已經給雅各祝福,而且打發他往巴旦‧亞蘭去,在那裡娶妻,並見祝福的時候囑咐他說:「不要娶迦南的女子為妻」,
Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram to take a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he charged him, "You shall not marry one of the Canaanite women,"
28:7 又見雅各聽從父母的話往巴旦‧亞蘭去了,
and that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
28:8 以掃就曉得他父親以撒看不中迦南的女子,
So when Esau saw that the Canaanite women did not please Isaac his father,
28:9 便往以實瑪利那裡去,在他二妻之外又娶了瑪哈拉為妻。她是亞伯拉罕兒子以實瑪利的女兒,尼拜約的妹子。
Esau went to Ish'mael and took to wife, besides the wives he had, Ma'halath the daughter of Ish'mael Abraham's son, the sister of Neba'ioth.
