MEDITATION

Genesis 31:10-13

10 “And it happened, at the time when the flocks conceived, that I lifted my eyes and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the flocks were streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted.
11 Then the Angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, ‘Jacob.’ And I said, ‘Here I am.’
12 And He said, ‘Lift your eyes now and see, all the rams which leap on the flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted; for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and where you made a vow to Me. Now arise, get out of this land, and return to the land of your family.’

b. Jacob responded immediately.
c. The Angel of God spoke to him about the rams that were jumping around.
d. Had Jacob seen all that?
e. Jacob also needed to see that God had watched over him all through the years.

3. Identification of the Angel of God

b. He had spoken to Jacob many years ago at a place Jacob called “Bethel”.
c. Jacob was reminded of how he had anointed the pillars and his vow to God.

4. The Angel of God was none other than the Lord Jesus Christ.

He existed in His spiritual and divine being before He put on flesh to become the Son of Man.

沉思

《创世记 31：10-13》
10 羊配合的时候，我梦中举目一看，见跳母羊的公羊都是有纹的、有点的、有花斑的。
11 神的使者在那梦中呼叫我说：‘雅各！’我说：‘我在这里。’
12 他说：‘你举目观看，跳母羊的公羊都是有纹的、有点的、有花斑的，凡拉班向你所做的，我都看见了。

13 我是伯特利的神，你在那里用油浇过柱子，向我许过愿。现今你起来，离开这地，回你本地去吧。’”

2. 上帝的使者

a. 祂直接地对雅各说话
b. 雅各立刻回应了
c. 上帝的使者对他说到关于跳母羊的公羊
d. 雅各都看见了吗？
