圣经问答:撒母耳记下(二)

knives02 (150 x 92)撒母耳记下第2章:大卫受膏做犹大王

一. 大卫为什么求问耶和华说,“我可以上犹大的一座城去吗?”?大卫知道他应该做犹大之王,但是他不会假定犹大人一定会立他为王。因此,大卫先得知神的旨意。

二. 神告诉大卫前往哪座城?请参看圣经地图找出此城的位置。

三. 在希伯仑那里犹大人膏立了大卫作___。这是第二次大卫被膏立做王。第一次是什么时候?为什么由希伯仑开始让大卫获得王位?

四. 为什么《圣经》把此领土称为“犹大”及“犹大家” ,而没有称为“犹大国”?(是因为以色列全地还没有分为两国,就是“南 / 北”及“以色列 / 犹大”两国。但很明显,众人已经按照这个说法形容他们的国。参看10-11节。)请注意:“以色列”一词,有时候指全国而言,有时指北方而言。“犹大” 一词,有时候指全国而言,有时指南方而言。

五. 4-7节:请说明大卫对基列雅比人所说的话的逻辑。如果大卫能够说服基列雅比人支持他做王,此事会对大城小镇其他的人有何影响?

六. 8-9节:“当时,扫罗的元帅尼___的儿子押___珥已经领着扫罗的儿子伊___波设,把他带过河到玛哈念去,并且立了他作王,统治基列、亚书利、耶斯列、以法莲、便雅悯和以色列众人”。从此可知,大卫成为全以色列的王,还是不那么简单。押尼珥想要得到权利。(请记住以上之人的名字。)

七. 伊施波设作以色列王几年?“大卫在希伯___作王统治犹大家的时候共有___年零六个月”。请注意:虽然神已经计划好让大卫做犹大和以色列全国的王,但是,大卫必须等到时候满足,才能够获得冠冕。大卫学会等候耶和华。您我能不能等候神?

八. 请注意谁支持扫罗一家,谁支持大卫:

chartSaulDavid01 (400 x 309)

九. 10-11节:大卫在希伯仑作王时,也许第五年之时,扫罗的儿子伊施波设作以色列王。意思也许是他没有马上被众人承认他应该接父亲的王位。

十. 14-17节:属于伊施波设的元帅,押尼珥,与属于大卫的约押作对;他们选出代表做什么?当时,“12对12”,几个人死亡?

十一. 17节:但是“12对12”,结果是非决定性的,所以众人怎么样?“那天的战事非常激烈,结果押尼珥和以色列人___在大卫的臣仆面前”。

十二. 请详细的述说亚撒黑怎么死的。

十三. 虽然押尼珥不支持大卫,但是,他说了一句智慧话,值得我们背诵:“押尼珥对约押喊叫,说∶「刀剑要不停地___人吗?你不知道结局是痛___的吗?你要等到什么时候才吩咐人民转去,不追赶自己的___ ___呢?」”[2:26,新译本]。请把这句话应用在当今基督徒身上:我们是否用嘴巴害人、毁谤人、杀人?

十四. 当天约押和大卫失去了几个人?押尼珥和便雅悯人失去了几位?

2 Samuel 2: David is Anointed King of Judah

1. Why did David inquire of God: “Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?” (NRSV) David knew that he was to become the king of Judah, however he could not assume that the people in Judah would make him king, so he asked to know God’s will in the matter.

2. Where did God tell David to go? Find this place on a Bible map.

3. David was anointed k___ in Hebron by the people of Judah. This is the second time that David has been anointed; when was the first time? Why did David’s kingship begin in Hebron?

4. Why does the Bible refer to this territory as “Judah” and the “house of Judah,” but is not called the “nation of Judah”? (Because the entire country of Israel has not yet divided into “north,” and “south,” “Israel” and “Judah.” It is very clear, however, that the people have already begun to refer to the two areas of their country in these ways; see vs. 10-11.) Note: Sometimes the term “Israel” refers to the entire nation, but sometimes it refers only to the north section. The term “Judah” sometimes refers to the entire nation, but sometimes it refers only to the southern portion.

5. Vs. 4-7: Explain the logic behind what David said to the people of Jabesh-gilead. If David is able to convince the people of Jabesh-gilead to support his kingship, what influence would it have on people in other towns and cities?

6. Vs. 8-9: “But A___ son of N___, commander of Saul’s army, had taken I___ son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim. He made him king over Gilead, the Ashurites, Jezreel, Ephraim, Benjamin, and over all Israel” (NRSV). [Ishbaal in some other translations is “Ish-Bosheth.”] From this we know that it was not easy for David to become king of the whole country of Israel. Abner wanted power. (Remember the names of these people.)

7. How long was Ishbaal king of Israel? “David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was s______ years and six months” (NRSV). Note: Although God had already planned for David to become the king of all of Israel and Judah, David had to wait for the time to be right before he could receive the crown. David learned to wait on the Lord. Do you and I wait on the

8. Note the relationships illustrated below…
ChartSaulDavid02 (400 x 422)9. Vs. 10-11: While David was king in Hebron, perhaps about the fifth year, Ishbaal, son of Saul, was made king of Israel; i.e., perhaps not everyone immediately supported his being the successor of his father.

10. Vs. 14-17: The men of Ishbaal’s commander Abner opposed the men of David’s Joab. They picked representatives and did what? Twelve men vs. twelve men, and how many died?

11. Vs. 17: Twelve fought twelve, but the verdict was indecisive. What did the men do then? “The battle was very fierce that day; and Abner and the men of Israel were b___ by the servants of David” (NRSV).

12. Explain in detail how Asahel died.

13. Even though Abner did not support David, he made a very wise statement nonetheless, a statement worth our memorizing: “Is the sword to keep d___ forever? Do you not know that the end will be b___? How long will it be before you order your people to turn from the pursuit of their k___?” (NRSV). Apply this verse to Christians today: Do we use our tongues to harm, slander and kill?

14. How many men did Joab and David lose? How many did Abner and the Benjamites lose?
