以行律法为本的都是被咒诅的 - 加拉太书读经随笔 第3章

加拉太书第三章第10-14节，保罗继续给加拉太的弟兄们阐述我们称义是因为信，而不是因为行律法。他说，凡是以行律法为本的都是被咒诅的，因为旧约圣经上说凡是不能够始终按照律法所规定的一切去做的就是被咒诅的。很明显，没有一个人能够靠着律法在神面前称义。律法并不是出于信心，只有做到了始终如一的遵守一切律法才能称义，而这对于人来说是不可能的。因此，神为了拯救我们，就差遣他的儿子为我们钉了木头十字架，替我们受了来自于律法的咒诅，因为旧约圣经说‘’凡挂在木头上的都是被咒诅的”。这样，我们就通过耶稣基督被赎出了律法的咒诅，叫亚伯拉罕的福因基督耶稣可以临到外邦人，使我们因信得着所应许的圣灵而得生。

 

加3:10 凡以行律法为本的、都是被咒诅的．因为经上记着、『凡不常照律法书上所记一切之事去行的、就被咒诅。』

For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who doesn't continue in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them."

加3:11 没有一个人靠着律法在　神面前称义、这是明显的．因为经上说、『义人必因信得生。』

Now that no man is justified by the law before God is evident, for, "The righteous will live by faith."

加3:12 律法原不本乎信、只说、『行这些事的、就必因此活着。』

The law is not of faith, but, "The man who does them will live by them."

加3:13 基督既为我们受了咒诅、〔受原文作成〕就赎出我们脱离律法的咒诅．因为经上记着、『凡挂在木头上都是被咒诅的。』

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,"

加3:14 这便叫亚伯拉罕的福、因基督耶稣可以临到外邦人、使我们因信得着所应许的圣灵。

that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
