| 10月30日2026年 聖經士師記第十四章：參孫娶妻與謎語 士師記第十四章主要記載神所興起的士師參孫，在成長過程中所發生的事情。這一章讓我們看見參孫雖然有神所賜的特殊能力，卻也有自己的軟弱；同時也讓我們看見，神仍然能夠在人不完全的生命中成就祂的旨意。 一、士師記第十四章內容敘述 1. 參孫要娶非利士女子（1～4節） 參孫下到亭拿，看見一個非利士女子，便喜歡她，要求父母替他娶這女子為妻。 他的父母不明白為什麼他要娶外邦女子，因為以色列人應當遵守神的教導，不與外邦人隨從異教風俗。 但參孫堅持自己的選擇。 第4節特別提到，這件事是出於耶和華，因為神正在尋找機會攻擊非利士人。這讓我們看見，雖然參孫的選擇帶有個人的慾望，但神仍然能在當中掌管局勢，成就祂的計畫。 屬靈提醒： 我們有時候只看見眼前自己喜歡的事物，卻沒有尋求神的心意。 人生重要的決定，不應只憑感覺，更要學習禱告，求神賜我們分辨的智慧。 2. 參孫殺死獅子（5～9節） 參孫與父母前往亭拿時，在葡萄園附近遇見一隻少壯獅子向他吼叫。 這時，耶和華的靈大大感動參孫，使他徒手將獅子撕裂，如同撕裂一隻山羊羔一樣。 但參孫沒有告訴父母這件事。 後來，他再次經過那裡，看見獅子的屍體中有蜜蜂和蜂蜜。他便取了蜂蜜吃，也拿給父母吃。 屬靈提醒： 參孫的力量不是單單來自自己的身體，而是來自神的靈。 我們也應當明白，真正的能力來自神，而不是人的驕傲與自恃。 3. 參孫設宴並提出謎語（10～14節） 參孫的父親前往女子家中，參孫按照當時的習俗設宴。 非利士人安排三十個人陪伴參孫。 參孫向他們提出一個謎語： 「吃的從吃者出來；甜的從強者出來。」 這個謎語是根據他先前殺死獅子，後來從獅子屍體中發現蜂蜜的經歷而來。 他與這三十個人約定，如果他們能在七日宴席期間猜出謎底，參孫就給他們三十件裡衣和三十套衣裳；如果猜不出來，他們就要給參孫衣服。 屬靈提醒： 參孫將自己的經歷變成謎語，卻沒有考慮到這場遊戲可能帶來的紛爭。 我們在生活中也要謹慎自己的言語，不要因為好勝、驕傲或一時衝動，讓自己陷入不必要的麻煩。 4. 妻子哭泣，參孫揭開謎底（15～18節） 非利士人猜不出謎底，便威脅參孫的妻子，要她設法套出答案，否則就要放火燒死她和她父親全家。 參孫的妻子不斷哭泣，要求參孫告訴她謎底。 參孫起初不願意說，但最後還是把答案告訴了她。 妻子便將答案告訴非利士人。 第18節，非利士人回答： 「有甚麼比蜜還甜呢？有甚麼比獅子還強呢？」 參孫知道他們是從妻子那裡得知答案，便非常憤怒。 屬靈提醒： 這段經文讓我們看見人際關係中的不信任、欺騙與壓力。 夫妻之間應當建立誠實與信任，而不是利用眼淚、威脅或欺騙來達到自己的目的。 5. 參孫擊殺三十個非利士人（19～20節） 耶和華的靈大大感動參孫，他便下到亞實基倫，擊殺三十個非利士人，奪取他們的衣裳，交給那些猜出謎底的人。 參孫非常生氣，回到父親的家中。 而他的妻子則被交給了參孫的一位陪伴者。 這一章就在這樣的衝突與不愉快中結束，也為下一章參孫與非利士人的衝突埋下伏筆。 屬靈提醒： 憤怒若沒有受到節制，容易使人做出傷害自己和別人的事情。 我們需要求神幫助我們管理情緒，不讓怒氣掌管生命。 二、士師記第十四章帶給我們的五個屬靈功課 1. 凡事尋求神的心意： 不要只憑自己的喜好做決定，要先求問神。 2. 能力來自聖靈： 不要倚靠自己的才能而驕傲，要知道一切恩典都是從神而來。 3. 謹慎自己的言語： 說話要有智慧，不要因為好勝而引起紛爭。 4. 珍惜夫妻與家庭關係： 家庭需要誠實、信任、包容與彼此尊重。 5. 學習控制怒氣： 不要讓情緒控制我們的行為，要讓聖靈引導我們的心。 三、士師記第十四章的核心信息 這一章最值得我們思想的是： 神的工作不會因為人的軟弱而停止，但人若不願意順服神，就可能在自己的選擇中承受許多痛苦。 參孫有神所賜的力量，卻沒有在每件事情上表現出成熟的屬靈生命。 這提醒我們： 信主不只是領受神的恩典，也要每天學習順服神、依靠神，讓生命逐漸被神改變。 我們不要只求神賜福，更要學習尋求神的心意。 四、士師記第十四章禱告 親愛的天父上帝： 感謝祢，讓我們今天有機會一起閱讀士師記第十四章，從參孫的生命經歷中學習屬靈的功課。 主啊！求祢赦免我們，有時候像參孫一樣，容易按照自己的喜好行事，只看見眼前想要的東西，卻沒有先尋求祢的心意。 求聖靈光照我們，使我們在每一個重要的決定上，都能謙卑來到祢面前，求祢引導我們的腳步。 親愛的主，求祢賜給我們從祢而來的智慧與力量，使我們不倚靠自己的聰明，不因自己的能力而驕傲，乃是凡事仰望祢、依靠祢。 主啊！求祢保守我們的家庭，讓夫妻之間有愛、有信任、有包容；讓父母與兒女之間有理解、有耐心、有溫暖。求祢除去家庭中的誤會、爭吵、埋怨與不信任，使我們懂得彼此珍惜。 主啊！我們也特別將自己紛亂、煩躁、不安的心交託給祢。 當生活中有許多壓力、困難和不如意的事情時，求祢親自安慰我們，使我們的心安靜下來。 求聖靈幫助我們控制自己的情緒，不讓憤怒、嫉妒、恐懼與憂慮掌管我們的心。 求祢賜福所有弟兄姊妹，使我們在信仰道路上彼此扶持、彼此代禱，在困難中仍然持守信心，在軟弱中經歷祢的恩典。 求主帶領我們每天親近祢，讀經、禱告、依靠祢，讓我們的生命一天比一天更像基督。 願我們不只是求祢賜福，更願意遵行祢的旨意，成為合祢心意的兒女。 求主賜我們平安、喜樂、信心與盼望，使我們無論面對什麼環境，都知道祢與我們同在。 感謝讚美主！ 如此禱告祈求，乃是奉主耶穌基督聖名。 阿們！ 五、給弟兄姊妹的一句勉勵 親愛的弟兄姊妹： 參孫有很大的力量，卻仍然有自己的軟弱。 我們也是如此，生命中有許多不足，需要神的恩典與帶領。 不要只求神給我們力量，更要求神給我們一顆順服祂的心。 願我們每天把自己的心交給主，讓主除去我們的煩躁、憂慮與重擔，使我們在基督裡享有真正的平安。 願主耶穌基督的恩典與平安，常與每一位弟兄姊妹同在。 阿們。 Judges Chapter 14 – Samson’s Marriage and the Riddle Bible Reading: Judges 14 (NIV / English Version) Judges Chapter 14 tells us about Samson, one of the judges whom God raised up to deliver the Israelites from the Philistines. This chapter teaches us about God’s power, human weakness, personal desires, relationships, and the importance of seeking God’s will. 1. Samson Wants to Marry a Philistine Woman (Verses 1–4) Samson went down to Timnah and saw a Philistine woman whom he wanted to marry. He told his parents to arrange the marriage. His parents questioned his decision because she was not an Israelite woman. However, Samson insisted on marrying her. Verse 4 tells us that this situation was used by the Lord as an opportunity to confront the Philistines, who were oppressing Israel. Spiritual Lessons: We should not make important decisions based only on our personal desires. We should pray and seek God’s guidance before making life-changing decisions. Even when people make imperfect choices, God can still accomplish His purposes. 2. Samson Kills a Lion (Verses 5–9) As Samson and his parents travelled toward Timnah, a young lion suddenly came roaring toward him. The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon Samson, and he tore the lion apart with his bare hands. Later, when Samson passed by the same place, he discovered that bees had made honey inside the lion’s carcass. He took some honey and ate it. He also shared it with his parents. Spiritual Lessons: Samson’s extraordinary strength came from God. This reminds us that our abilities, talents, and strength are gifts from the Lord. We should never become proud or depend entirely on ourselves. Instead, we should remain humble and trust God. 3. Samson Gives the Philistines a Riddle (Verses 10–14) Samson held a wedding feast, as was customary at that time. Thirty Philistine men were assigned to accompany him. Samson challenged them with a riddle: “Out of the eater, something to eat; out of the strong, something sweet.” The riddle referred to the lion he had killed and the honey he later discovered inside its carcass. He promised that if they could solve the riddle within seven days, he would give them thirty linen garments and thirty sets of clothes. If they could not solve it, they would have to give him the same. Spiritual Lessons: We should be careful with our words and actions. Pride, competition, and the desire to prove ourselves can sometimes create unnecessary conflict. God wants us to live with humility and wisdom. 4. Samson’s Wife Discovers the Answer (Verses 15–18) The Philistine men could not solve the riddle. They threatened Samson’s wife, demanding that she find out the answer. Otherwise, they would burn her and her father’s household. She cried and repeatedly pressured Samson to reveal the answer. Eventually, Samson told her the secret. She then told the Philistine men. On the seventh day, they answered: “What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?” Samson immediately realized that they had obtained the answer through his wife. He became very angry. Spiritual Lessons: This passage reminds us how important honesty and trust are in relationships. Marriage and family relationships should be built on love, respect, honesty, and understanding. We should not manipulate others through threats, pressure, or dishonesty. 5. Samson Defeats Thirty Philistines (Verses 19–20) The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon Samson. He went down to Ashkelon, struck down thirty Philistine men, took their garments, and gave them to those who had solved the riddle. Samson was very angry and returned to his father’s house. His wife was subsequently given to one of his companions. The chapter ends with broken relationships and conflict, setting the stage for the events in the next chapter. Spiritual Lessons: Anger that is not controlled can lead to painful consequences. We should ask God to help us control our emotions and respond to difficult situations with patience, wisdom, and grace. 6. Five Important Spiritual Lessons from Judges 14 1. Seek God’s Will: Do not make decisions based only on personal desires. Pray and seek God’s guidance. 2. Our Strength Comes from God: Our abilities and talents are gifts from Him. We should remain humble. 3. Be Careful with Our Words: Words can bring peace or create unnecessary conflict. 4. Protect Family Relationships: Love, honesty, forgiveness, and mutual respect are essential in marriage and family life. 5. Control Your Anger: Do not allow anger, pride, or frustration to control your actions. Let the Holy Spirit guide your heart. 7. The Main Message of Judges 14 The central message of this chapter is: God can accomplish His purposes even through imperfect people, but we should always seek His wisdom and guidance rather than follow our own desires. Samson had extraordinary physical strength, but he also had personal weaknesses. His story reminds us that having abilities and talents is not enough. We also need spiritual maturity, obedience, humility, and self-control. God does not simply want us to receive His blessings. He wants us to grow in faith and become more like Jesus Christ. 8. Prayer Based on Judges Chapter 14 A PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS Heavenly Father, Thank You for bringing us together to read and reflect on Judges Chapter 14. Through the life of Samson, we are reminded of Your power, Your guidance, and our human weaknesses. Lord, forgive us when we make decisions based only on our own desires without first seeking Your will. Please give us wisdom to make the right decisions and help us walk according to Your teachings. Father, remind us that our strength does not come from ourselves but from You. Teach us to remain humble, patient, and faithful in every situation. Lord Jesus, we especially place our restless, troubled, and anxious hearts into Your loving hands. When life becomes stressful, when our minds are filled with worries, and when our hearts become frustrated or confused, please calm us with Your peace. Take away our anger, fear, jealousy, and unnecessary worries. Fill our hearts with Your love, patience, forgiveness, and understanding. Lord, please bless our marriages and families. Help husbands and wives love and respect one another. Strengthen the relationships between parents and children. Where there is misunderstanding, bring reconciliation. Where there is sadness, bring comfort. Where there is conflict, bring peace. Where there is weakness, give us strength. We also pray for all our Christian brothers and sisters. Please protect everyone who is struggling with difficulties, illness, loneliness, financial pressures, or family problems. May we encourage one another, pray for one another, and remain united in Christ. Holy Spirit, guide our thoughts, our words, and our actions every day. Help us not only to ask for Your blessings but also to learn to obey Your will. May our faith grow stronger, our hearts become more peaceful, and our lives reflect the love of Jesus Christ. Lord, let Your peace fill our homes, our families, our churches, and our hearts. May we always remember that You are with us, even during difficult times. We surrender everything into Your loving hands. In the precious and holy name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen. 9. A Message of Encouragement for All Christian Brothers and Sisters Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, Samson had great physical strength, but he also had weaknesses. We are no different. We all need God’s grace, wisdom, and guidance in our daily lives. Let us remember: Do not only ask God to give us strength. Ask Him to give us a humble, obedient, and faithful heart. Every day, surrender your worries, frustrations, and burdens to the Lord. Trust Him, follow His Word, and allow His Holy Spirit to guide you. May the peace of Jesus Christ calm our troubled hearts and fill our lives with faith, hope, and love. May God’s grace and peace be with all Christian brothers and sisters today and always. In Jesus’ name, Amen. |
