今天上第一課以賽亞書,讀第一章。
過去速讀的時候跟本沒有留意這一章的setting。
原來是court room setting。
開場是很grand的,天和地都聚集聽這一個case,
但這不是一個尋常的court case。
在第18節上帝作出一個邀請,是一個好有趣的邀請,是一場辯論比賽,debating with God......
"Come now, let us reason together,"
says the LORD.
"Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool."
這是一個獨特的邀請,與上帝的關係不再是頭腦智識 (head knowledge),而是轉化為heart/ relational knowledge,一切過犯都洗清,上帝對這些都不再記住。
