出埃及记21–27章:十个核心问题与答案|Exodus 21–27: Ten Key Questions and Answers

2026-09-25

这份查经材料用十个核心问题,帮助我们理解《出埃及记》21–27章的主要信息。

This Bible study uses ten key questions to help us understand the main message of Exodus 21–27.

主线是:救赎 → 律法 → 圣洁 → 立约 → 血 → 会幕 → 神与人同住 → 基督。

The main line is: Redemption → Law → Holiness → Covenant → Blood → Tabernacle → God dwelling with His people → Christ.

1. 为什么神先把以色列人救出埃及,然后才赐下律法?

1. Why did God save Israel from Egypt before He gave them the law?

答案:

Answer:

因为以色列人不是靠遵守律法换取救恩,而是先蒙神救赎,然后作为神的百姓学习顺服神。

Israel was not saved by keeping the law. God saved them first, and then He taught His people how to obey Him.

改革宗非常重视这个次序:恩典在先,顺服在后;救恩不是行为的奖赏,善行却是蒙恩以后应有的果子。

Reformed theology strongly emphasizes this order: grace comes first, and obedience follows. Salvation is not a reward for works, but good works should follow God's saving grace.

以弗所书 2:8–10(和合本)

“你们得救是本乎恩,也因着信;这并不是出于自己,乃是神所赐的;也不是出于行为,免得有人自夸。我们原是他的工作,在基督耶稣里造成的,为要叫我们行善,就是神所预备叫我们行的。”

Ephesians 2:8–10 (WEB)

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.”

2. “以眼还眼,以牙还牙”是什么意思?是在鼓励报复吗?

2. What does “eye for eye, tooth for tooth” mean? Does it encourage revenge?

答案:

Answer:

不是鼓励私人报复,而是在规定公义的比例原则。刑罚应当与造成的伤害相称,不能无限扩大报复。

It does not encourage personal revenge. It teaches a principle of fair and proportional justice. Punishment should fit the harm and should not become unlimited revenge.

关键经文|Key Scripture

出埃及记 21:23–25(和合本)

“你们听见有话说:‘以眼还眼,以牙还牙。’只是我告诉你们,不要与恶人作对。有人打你的右脸,连左脸也转过来由他打;有人想要告你,要拿你的里衣,连外衣也由他拿去;有人强逼你走一里路,你就同他走二里;有求你的,就给他;有向你借贷的,不可推辞。你们听见有话说:‘当爱你的邻舍,恨你的仇敌。’只是我告诉你们,要爱你们的仇敌,为那逼迫你们的祷告。”

Matthew 5:38–44 (WEB)

“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also. Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you. You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you.”

“Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, ‘Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.’”

3. 为什么神特别保护寄居者、寡妇、孤儿和穷人?

3. Why does God especially protect foreigners, widows, orphans, and the poor?

答案:

Answer:

因为这些人在当时的社会中往往缺少保护自己的能力。神禁止祂的百姓利用自己的力量欺压弱者。

These people often had less power to protect themselves. God forbade His people from using their strength to oppress the weak.

神也提醒以色列人:他们自己曾经在埃及作寄居者,也曾经历欺压。蒙神怜悯的人,也应当怜悯别人。

God also reminded Israel that they had once been foreigners in Egypt and had suffered oppression. People who receive God's mercy should show mercy to others.

关键经文|Key Scripture

“不可亏负寄居的,也不可欺压他,因为你们在埃及地也作过寄居的。不可苦待寡妇和孤儿。”

Exodus 22:21–22 (WEB)

“You shall not wrong an alien or oppress him, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt. You shall not take advantage of any widow or fatherless child.”

申命记 10:17–19(和合本)

“因为耶和华你们的神,他是万神之神,万主之主,至大的神,大有能力,大而可畏,不以貌取人,也不受贿赂。他为孤儿寡妇伸冤,又怜爱寄居的,赐给他衣食。所以你们要怜爱寄居的,因为你们在埃及地也作过寄居的。”

Deuteronomy 10:17–19 (WEB)

“For Yahweh your God, he is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the awesome, who doesn’t respect persons or take bribes. He executes justice for the fatherless and widow and loves the foreigner in giving him food and clothing. Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.”

“在神我们的父面前,那清洁没有玷污的虔诚,就是看顾在患难中的孤儿寡妇,并且保守自己不沾染世俗。”

James 1:27 (WEB)

“Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.”

4. “不可随众行恶”对今天有什么意义?

4. What does “You shall not follow a crowd to do evil” mean for us today?

答案:

Answer:

多数人赞成,并不能决定一件事情在神面前是否正确。基督徒判断善恶的最终标准不是“大家怎么想”,而是“神怎么说”。

A majority cannot decide whether something is right before God. The final standard for Christians is not “What does everyone think?” but “What has God said?”

关键经文|Key Scripture

出埃及记 23:2(和合本)

“不可随众行恶;不可在争讼的事上随众偏行,作见证屈枉正直。”

“彼得和众使徒回答说:‘顺从神,不顺从人,是应当的。’”

Acts 5:29 (WEB)

“But Peter and the apostles answered, ‘We must obey God rather than men.’”

5. 为什么百姓说“我们都必遵行”,后来却仍然失败?

5. Why did the people say, “We will obey,” but later still fail?

答案:

Answer:

因为问题不仅在外面的律法,也在人的心。神的律法是圣洁、公义、良善的,但罪人不能靠自己的力量完全顺服神。

The problem is not only outside us; it is also in the human heart. God's law is holy, righteous, and good, but sinners cannot perfectly obey God by their own strength.

以色列人在出埃及记24章郑重承诺顺服,但到了32章很快就制造金牛犊。这显明人需要的不只是写在石版上的律法,也需要神赐下新心。

Israel solemnly promised obedience in Exodus 24, but in Exodus 32 they soon made the golden calf. This shows that people need more than law written on stone; they need God to give them a new heart.

Exodus 32:7–8 (WEB)

“Yahweh spoke to Moses, ‘Go, get down; for your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves! They have turned away quickly out of the way which I commanded them.

耶利米书 31:33(和合本)

6. 为什么立约的时候需要血?这与耶稣有什么关系?

6. Why was blood needed for the covenant, and how does this point to Jesus?

答案:

Answer:

罪带来死亡。罪人要与圣洁的神和好,需要赎罪和代替性的牺牲。出埃及记24章的“立约之血”最终指向基督为祂百姓所流的血。

Sin brings death. For sinners to be reconciled to a holy God, atonement and a substitute are needed. The “blood of the covenant” in Exodus 24 ultimately points to the blood Christ shed for His people.

关键经文|Key Scripture

出埃及记 24:8(和合本)

“摩西将血洒在百姓身上,说:‘你看!这是立约的血,是耶和华按这一切话与你们立约的凭据。’”

“Knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers, but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Christ.”

7. 神为什么命令以色列人建造会幕?

7. Why did God command Israel to build the tabernacle?

答案:

Answer:

会幕最核心的意义不是一个漂亮的宗教建筑,而是圣洁的神愿意住在祂所救赎的百姓中间。

The main meaning of the tabernacle was not a beautiful religious building. It showed that the holy God wanted to dwell among the people He had redeemed.

神不只是把以色列人从埃及带出来,也要把他们带到自己面前,使他们成为祂的百姓。

God did not only bring Israel out of Egypt. He brought them to Himself so that they would be His people.

关键经文|Key Scripture

出埃及记 25:8(和合本)

“又当为我造圣所,使我可以住在他们中间。”

Exodus 25:8 (WEB)

“Let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.”

8. 为什么约柜里面放十诫,上面却是施恩座?

8. Why were the Ten Commandments inside the ark, while the mercy seat was above it?

答案:

Answer:

约柜里面的约版代表神的律法;约柜上面的施恩座是神与祂百姓相会之处。赎罪日,大祭司又把祭牲的血带到施恩座前。

The covenant tablets inside the ark represented God's law. The mercy seat above the ark was the place where God met with His people. On the Day of Atonement, the high priest brought sacrificial blood before the mercy seat.

这形成一个重要的救赎图景:神的律法显明人的罪,而神自己也为罪人设立赎罪之路。

This gives us an important picture of redemption: God's law shows human sin, and God Himself provides the way of atonement for sinners.

关键经文|Key Scripture

出埃及记 25:21–22(和合本)

“要将施恩座安在柜的上边,又将我所要赐给你的法版放在柜里。我要在那里与你相会,又要从法柜施恩座上二基路伯中间,和你说我所要吩咐你传给以色列人的一切事。”

Leviticus 16:14–16 (WEB)

“He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.

He shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleannesses of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins.”

罗马书 3:23–26(和合本)

“因为世人都犯了罪,亏缺了神的荣耀;如今却蒙神的恩典,因基督耶稣的救赎,就白白地称义。神设立耶稣作挽回祭,是凭着耶稣的血,借着人的信,要显明神的义;因为他用忍耐的心宽容人先时所犯的罪,好在今时显明他的义,使人知道他自己为义,也称信耶稣的人为义。”

Romans 3:23–26 (WEB)

9. 为什么有圣所、至圣所和幔子?为什么人不能随便来到神面前?

9. Why were there the Holy Place, the Most Holy Place, and the veil? Why could people not freely enter God's presence?

答案:

Answer:

因为神是圣洁的,人是有罪的。幔子显明罪使人与神隔绝。

Because God is holy and humans are sinful. The veil showed the separation caused by sin.

耶稣死的时候,圣殿的幔子从上到下裂为两半。借着基督的血,属祂的人现在可以来到神面前。

Hebrews 10:19–22 (WEB)

“Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus, by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; and having a great priest over God’s house, let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water.”

10. 为什么需要祭坛、祭牲和流血?这些怎样指向基督?

10. Why were an altar, sacrifices, and blood needed? How do they point to Christ?

答案:

Answer:

罪的工价乃是死。旧约的献祭不断提醒以色列人:罪是严重的,赦罪需要赎罪和代替。

The wages of sin is death. Old Testament sacrifices continually reminded Israel that sin is serious and that forgiveness requires atonement and substitution.

但是牛羊的血不能最终除掉人的罪。因此这些祭物不是终点,而是指向那真正的祭物——耶稣基督。

But the blood of bulls and goats could not finally remove human sin. These sacrifices were not the final answer. They pointed to the true sacrifice—Jesus Christ.

希伯来书 10:10–14(和合本)

“我们凭这旨意,靠耶稣基督只一次献上他的身体,就得以成圣。凡祭司天天站着事奉神,屡次献上一样的祭物,这祭物永不能除罪。但基督献了一次永远的赎罪祭,就在神的右边坐下了。从此,等候他仇敌成了他的脚凳。因为他一次献祭,便叫那得以成圣的人永远完全。”

Hebrews 10:10–14 (WEB)

“By that will, we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and often offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins, but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God, from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet. For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.”

总结|Summary

为什么神救了以色列以后,又给他们律法、约、祭坛、血和会幕?

Why did God give Israel the law, covenant, altar, blood, and tabernacle after He saved them?

神先用恩典救赎祂的百姓,然后教导他们圣洁地生活。

God first redeems His people by grace, and then teaches them to live holy lives.

但是罪人不能凭自己来到圣洁的神面前,因此神设立约、祭牲、血和会幕。

But sinners cannot come to a holy God by themselves, so God established the covenant, sacrifices, blood, and the tabernacle.

这些不是最终的救恩,而是在救赎历史中逐渐把人带向那位真正的中保——耶稣基督。

These were not the final salvation. In the history of redemption, they gradually point us to the true Mediator—Jesus Christ.

救赎 → 律法 → 圣洁 → 立约 → 血 → 会幕 → 神与人同住 → 基督。

Redemption → Law → Holiness → Covenant → Blood → Tabernacle → God dwelling with His people → Christ.
