忽略主恩怎能逃罪

所以,我們當越發鄭重所聽見的道理,恐怕我們隨流失去。 那藉著天使所傳的話既是確定的,凡干犯悖逆的都受了該受的報應, 我們若忽略這麼大的救恩,怎能逃罪呢?這救恩起先是主親自講的,後來是聽見的人給我們證實了, 神又按自己的旨意,用神蹟、奇事和百般的異能並聖靈的恩賜,同他們作見證。

救人的元帥因受苦難得以完全

我們所說將來的世界,神原沒有交給天使管轄。 但有人在經上某處證明說:「人算什麼,你竟顧念他?世人算什麼,你竟眷顧他? 你叫他比天使微小一點[a],賜他榮耀、尊貴為冠冕,並將你手所造的都派他管理, 叫萬物都服在他的腳下。」既叫萬物都服他,就沒有剩下一樣不服他的。只是如今我們還不見萬物都服他, 唯獨見那成為比天使小一點的耶穌[b],因為受死的苦,就得了尊貴、榮耀為冠冕,叫他因著神的恩為人人嘗了死味。 10 原來那為萬物所屬、為萬物所本的,要領許多的兒子進榮耀裡去,使救他們的元帥因受苦難得以完全,本是合宜的。 11 因那使人成聖的和那些得以成聖的,都是出於一,所以他稱他們為弟兄也不以為恥, 12 說:「我要將你的名傳於我的弟兄,在會中我要頌揚你。」 13 又說:「我要依賴他。」又說:「看哪,我與神所給我的兒女。」 14 兒女既同有血肉之體,他也照樣親自成了血肉之體,特要藉著死敗壞那掌死權的,就是魔鬼, 15 並要釋放那些一生因怕死而為奴僕的人。

耶穌既受試探就能搭救受試探的人

16 他並不救拔天使,乃是救拔亞伯拉罕的後裔。 17 所以,他凡事該與他的弟兄相同,為要在神的事上成為慈悲忠信的大祭司,為百姓的罪獻上挽回祭。 18 他自己既然被試探而受苦,就能搭救被試探的人。

我们的拯救比律法更伟大

因此,我们必须更加注意我们所听到的那些事情(真理), 免得偏离了它们。如果通过天使传播的律法是有效的,而且每个违法与不服从的行为都应受到惩罚, 那么,如果我们忽视了如此伟大的拯救,又如何能逃脱惩罚呢?主首先宣告了拯救,然后又由听到的人向我们做了证实。 上帝还用迹象、奇迹、各种神迹 [a],并按他的旨意用圣灵的恩赐,做了证实。

基督作凡人拯救人类

上帝并没有把我们正在谈论的这个未来的世界交给天使去统治。 《经》上的某处是这么记载的:

“你所关心的人算什么人呢?
你所关心的人子算什么人呢?
你让他一时低于天使,
你冠他以荣耀和荣誉,
并置一切于他的脚下。” (A)

上帝把万物无一例外地置于他的管辖之下。 但是,我们的确看到了耶稣,他一时被置于比天使低微的地位,通过上帝的恩典,为人类经历了死亡,如今,我们看到他由于遭遇了死亡,得到了荣耀和尊崇的桂冠。

10 世间万物都是为了上帝和通过他而存在的,上帝为了给他众多的孩子带来荣耀,使拯救他们的先驱耶稣通过受难而变得完美,这么做是很合适的。

11 使他人圣洁的人和被他人变得圣洁 [b]的人,都是来自一个家庭,这是为什么耶稣称他们为兄弟而不感到羞耻的原因。 12 耶稣说:

“我将把你的名字告诉我的兄弟姐妹,
我将在聚会的人们的面前对你唱赞美歌。” (B)

13 他又说:

“把我的信任寄托在你身上(上帝)。” (C)

他还说:

“我在这里,与上帝赐给我的孩子们同在。” (D)

14 既然这些孩子都是会死的血肉之躯,所以耶稣也变得和他们一样,具有血肉之躯,这样他就可以用自己的死来摧毁那个掌握死亡权力的魔鬼。 15 他这么做,使那些一生受到死亡恐惧奴役的人们获得了自由。 16 显然,他帮助的不是天使,而是亚伯拉罕的子孙, 17 为此,他必须处处都像他的兄弟姐妹,那样才能成为一名为上帝服务的仁慈的、虔诚的大祭司,以便使人们的罪的到宽恕。 18 他自己经历了诱惑与折磨,所以他才能帮助现在正在受诱惑的人们。

Warning to Pay Attention

We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.(A) For since the message spoken(B) through angels(C) was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment,(D) how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation?(E) This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord,(F) was confirmed to us by those who heard him.(G) God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles,(H) and by gifts of the Holy Spirit(I) distributed according to his will.(J)

Jesus Made Fully Human

It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking. But there is a place where someone(K) has testified:

“What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    a son of man that you care for him?(L)
You made them a little[a] lower than the angels;
    you crowned them with glory and honor
    and put everything under their feet.”[b][c](M)

In putting everything under them,[d] God left nothing that is not subject to them.[e] Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.[f] But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor(N) because he suffered death,(O) so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.(P)

10 In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists,(Q) should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered.(R) 11 Both the one who makes people holy(S) and those who are made holy(T) are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.[g](U) 12 He says,

“I will declare your name to my brothers and sisters;
    in the assembly I will sing your praises.”[h](V)

13 And again,

“I will put my trust in him.”[i](W)

And again he says,

“Here am I, and the children God has given me.”[j](X)

14 Since the children have flesh and blood,(Y) he too shared in their humanity(Z) so that by his death he might break the power(AA) of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil(AB) 15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear(AC) of death. 16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.(AD) 17 For this reason he had to be made like them,[k](AE) fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful(AF) and faithful high priest(AG) in service to God,(AH) and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.(AI) 18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.(AJ)
