The Bible Says
但以理书 9:1-2 含义

但以理书第 9 章发生在大流士王统治迦勒底王国第一年。迦勒底人伯沙撒在米底亚-波斯征服战中被杀后大流士继承了巴比伦的统治权(但以理书 5:30-31)。

但以理一生大部分时间都生活在巴比伦。他被犹大流放,被外国侵略者俘虏,在不同的文化中长大(但以理书 1:6)。然而,在巴比伦生活期间,在多位统治者统治下,但以理始终坚信上帝。他只忠于上帝。

此时,丹尼尔已经是一位老人。他经历过几位巴比伦国王。他目睹了巴比伦王国被米底人和波斯人征服的过程。毫无疑问,他厌倦了远离家乡的生活。国王来了又去。帝国兴衰。丹尼尔查阅圣经,研究上帝对犹太人的承诺。他写道,他在书中看到了上帝对先知耶利米的启示,即年数。他读了耶利米书第 25 章。上帝告诉耶利米,由于犹太人的偶像崇拜和不服从,上帝将派尼布甲尼撒征服他们,以惩罚他们。巴比伦的统治期将是七十年:“这全地必荒凉,令人惊恐。这些国家要服事巴比伦王七十年 ”(耶利米书 25:11)

“荒凉”一词源于希伯来语“chorbah”,意为“荒废、毁坏”。耶路撒冷城因巴比伦的征服而被摧毁,犹大地也变成一片荒地。空无一物,寸草不生,一片废墟。

这七十年的荒凉对但以理来说意义重大,因为他是尼布甲尼撒征服的受害者。由于犹大的罪孽和由此产生的惩罚,他一生大部分时间都住在巴比伦。通过先知耶利米,上帝解释了七十年结束后他会做什么:

“耶和华说:‘七十年满了,我必刑罚巴比伦王和那国,并迦勒底人之地,因他们的罪孽,使这地永远荒凉。’” (耶利米书 25:12)

巴比伦的惩罚发生在但以理生命中的这一时刻。巴比伦帝国已经灭亡。米底人和波斯人现在统治着远近各地,包括但以理仍被俘虏的巴比伦城。他研究耶利米的预言是因为他想知道耶路撒冷的毁灭何时结束。值得注意的是,尽管但以理和耶利米同时活着,但以理知道耶利米是一位真正的先知。他并不怀疑上帝通过耶利米说话。他正在寻求上帝的话语来理解,并想知道-上帝对犹太人的惩罚结束了吗?
