第二篇　金灯台的发展─为着圣殿的重建
Message Two The Development of the Golden Lampstand— for the Rebuilding of the Temple
壹　撒迦利亚书中为着圣殿之重建的灯台（亚四2~3），表征以色列人是神的见证，着重三一神终极完成的那灵（6），作七灯照耀：─引用经文
I.　The lampstand in Zechariah for the rebuilding of the temple (Zech. 4:2-3) signifies Israel as God’s testimony and emphasizes the consummated Spirit of the Triune God (v. 6) shining as seven lamps:
一　灯台的七灯乃是耶和华的七眼（亚四10），也就是神的七灵─启四5：
A.　The seven lamps of the lampstands are the seven eyes of Jehovah (Zech. 4:10), the seven Spirits of God—Rev. 4:5:
1　七灵指明在神行动加强的功用和工作上，神的灵是七倍加强的。
1.　The seven Spirits indicate that in the intensified function and work of God’s operation, God’s Spirit is sevenfold intensified.
2　七灵作为七灯，乃是为着光照、暴露、审判和焚烧，以施行神的行政。
2.　The seven Spirits as seven lamps are for enlightening, exposing, judging, and burning to carry out God’s administration.
二　耶和华的七眼也就是基督（为着神建造之“石头救主”─亚三9）的七眼：─引用经文
B.　The seven eyes of Jehovah are the seven eyes of Christ, the Stone-Savior for God’s building—Zech. 3:9:
1　基督是建造的石头，为着神子民的罪孽（约一29），在十字架上被神雕刻、对付，因此是带有七眼的“石头救主”。─引用经文
1.　Christ as the building stone was engraved, dealt with, by God on the cross for the iniquity of God’s people (John 1:29); hence, He is the Stone-Savior with seven eyes.
2　石头上的七眼，也就是救赎之羔羊的七眼，乃是为着鉴察并搜寻，也是为着羔羊一切所是的灌注并传输，以完成神的建造。
2.　The seven eyes on the stone, the seven eyes of the redeeming Lamb, are for observing and searching and also for infusing and transfusing all that the Lamb is to complete God’s building.
贰　撒迦利亚书描绘灯台作神的见证，乃是以神七倍加强的灵为其全备的供应─亚四2~3，11~14：　
II.　Zechariah portrays the lampstand as God’s testimony taking the sevenfold intensified Spirit of God as its bountiful supply—Zech. 4:2-3, 11-14:
一　神的见证要照耀出来，就必须有焚烧;要有焚烧，就必须有来自橄榄树之橄榄油（指那灵）的供应。
A.　For the shining of God’s testimony there must be the burning, and in order for there to be the burning, there must be the supply of olive oil (denoting the Spirit) from the olive trees.
二　灯台两边的两棵橄榄树，乃是两个油的儿子，指圣殿重建时的约书亚和所罗巴伯（亚三1，四6），也指这世代未了的两个见证人（启十一3~12）。─引用经文
B.　The two olive trees on the two sides of the lampstand are the two sons of oil, referring to Joshua and Zerubbabel in the rebuilding of the holy temple (Zech. 3:1; 4:6) and also to the two witnesses at the end of this age (Rev. 11:3-12).
三　这两棵橄榄树又称为两根橄榄枝（亚四12），指明我们信徒乃是基督这独一橄榄树的枝子（参罗十一17），在基督里用七倍加强的灵供应人。─引用经文
C.　The two olive trees are also called two olive branches (Zech. 4:12), indicating that we, the believers, are branches of Christ, the unique olive tree (cf. Rom. 11:17), and that in Christ we supply others with the sevenfold intensified Spirit.
叁　灯台、耶和华、羔羊和石头，四者乃是一，为着完成神的建造：
III.　These four—the lampstand, Jehovah, the Lamb, and the stone—are one for the accomplishing of God’s building:
一　灯台的七灯就是耶和华的七眼（亚四2，10），指明灯台就是耶和华;耶和华的七眼就是羔羊的七眼（启五6），指明耶和华就是羔羊;羔羊的七眼也就是石头上的七眼（亚三9），指明羔羊就是石头。─引用经文
A.　The seven lamps of the lampstand being the seven eyes of Jehovah (Zech. 4:2, 10) indicates that the lampstand is Jehovah; the seven eyes of Jehovah being the seven eyes of the Lamb (Rev. 5:6) indicates that Jehovah is the Lamb; the seven eyes of the Lamb being the seven eyes on the stone (Zech. 3:9) indicates that the Lamb is the stone.
二　金灯台是指三一神，耶和华是指这位三一神来与人接触，羔羊是为着除罪，石头是为着建造。金是指神性;石头是指人性，含示变化。因此，这是指三一神经过种种过程，为着完成神的建造。
B.　The golden lampstand denotes the Triune God; Jehovah refers to the Triune God coming to have contact with man; the Lamb is for the taking away of sin; and the stone is for the building. Gold denotes divinity; stone denotes humanity, implying transformation. Hence, this denotes that the Triune God has been processed for the completion of God’s building.
三　为着神的建造，基督不仅是基石（赛二八16，林前三11），也是房角石（弗二20，彼前二6），至终又是恩典的顶石─亚四7：
C.　For God’s building, Christ is not only the foundation stone (Isa. 28:16; 1 Cor. 3:11) but also the cornerstone (Eph. 2:20; 1 Pet. 2:6); eventually, He is the topstone of grace—Zech. 4:7:
1　恩典的顶石指明基督是从神临到我们的恩典（约一14），作神建造的顶盖。─引用经文
1.　The topstone of grace indicates that Christ is grace from God to us (John 1:14) to be the covering of God’s building.
2　这顶石也就是父神所雕刻，其上有七眼（指七灵）的石头;这含示神圣的三一（参林后十三14），为着完成神的建造。─引用经文
2.　The topstone is the stone which was engraved by God the Father and upon which are seven eyes (denoting the seven Spirits); this implies the Divine Trinity (cf. 2 Cor. 13:14) for the completion of God’s building.
