旧约 - 历代记上(1 Chronicles)第25章

Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:
Of the sons of Asaph; Zaccur, and Joseph, and Nethaniah, and Asarelah, the sons of Asaph under the hands of Asaph, which prophesied according to the order of the king.
Of Jeduthun: the sons of Jeduthun; Gedaliah, and Zeri, and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp, to give thanks and to praise the LORD.
Of Heman: the sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, and Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, and Romamtiezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth:
All these were the sons of Heman the king's seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
All these were under the hands of their father for song in the house of the LORD, with cymbals, psalteries, and harps, for the service of the house of God, according to the king's order to Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman.
So the number of them, with their brethren that were instructed in the songs of the LORD, even all that were cunning, was two hundred fourscore and eight.
And they cast lots, ward against ward, as well the small as the great, the teacher as the scholar.
Now the first lot came forth for Asaph to Joseph: the second to Gedaliah, who with his brethren and sons were twelve:
The third to Zaccur, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The fourth to Izri, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The fifth to Nethaniah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The sixth to Bukkiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The seventh to Jesharelah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The eighth to Jeshaiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The ninth to Mattaniah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The tenth to Shimei, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The eleventh to Azareel, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The twelfth to Hashabiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The thirteenth to Shubael, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The fourteenth to Mattithiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The fifteenth to Jeremoth, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The sixteenth to Hananiah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The seventeenth to Joshbekashah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The eighteenth to Hanani, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The nineteenth to Mallothi, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The twentieth to Eliathah, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The one and twentieth to Hothir, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The two and twentieth to Giddalti, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The three and twentieth to Mahazioth, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve:
The four and twentieth to Romamtiezer, he, his sons, and his brethren, were twelve.
历代志上第廿五章   第 25 章 

  代上 25:1> 今天我要向人传什么信息? 

  25:1 说预言不但讲述未来的事,也包括唱诗颂赞神与传扬祂的信息(参林前 14 章)。作先知的可能是乐师、农夫(参摩 1:1 )、主妇(参王下 22:14 )或领袖(参申 34:10 )──凡是勇敢、准确地代神传言,想领人民回转敬拜祂的人,都可以作先知。大卫从许多歌唱者与乐师之中,选出这一班才华出众的人来向别人传颂神,并以音乐鼓舞人心。 

  代上 25:1-7> 在教会敬拜中,我是敬拜者,抑或只是观众? 

  25:1-7 在帐幕之中有许多方式可以敬拜神。有些人说预言和唱歌( 25:1 ),有人称谢颂赞神( 25:3 ),也有人吹奏乐器( 25:6-7 ),神要全体的子民都敬拜祂。你可能不是音乐家,不是先知教师,但是凡你所献上的一切,神都会悦纳。你要发展自己的特殊才华来事奉神(参罗 12:3-8 ;林前 12:29-31 )。 

  代上 25:9-31> 大卫建立班次管理圣殿,给我们的事奉有何启示? 

  25:9-31 大卫将歌者、乐手分为二十四班,与祭司的二十四班相配合( 24:7-15 )。这种任职的班次,使圣殿的管理有条不紊,训练人员卓有功效,并令敬拜神的方式多采多姿。因为每一班都任职一个短期,就能让更多人有参与的机会。──《灵修版圣经注释》
