The Bible Says
创世记 9:5-7 含义

暴力和谋杀是上帝审判洪水的主要因素。上帝说地球上充满了暴力(创世记 6:11)。上帝说所有生命都属于他,所以如果有人谋杀了另一个人,上帝就会要求他的生命(以命偿命)。凡流人血的,他的血也将被人所流,上帝试图重申人类生命的神圣性。

上帝让动物感到恐惧,现在他需要让人类感到恐惧,以便他们能够谋杀另一个人,这样他们就不会自相残杀。没有比杀人更能体现对人类生命的蔑视的罪恶了。上帝要求每个人对自己的行为负责,人不能伤害或杀害另一个人而不对此作出回应。上帝用这节经文为人类政府建立了道德权威,允许人类流血作为应得的惩罚。人类现在负责正义。现在人类的工作是通过使用暴力威胁作为威慑来防止地球充满暴力。谋杀是杀死一个按照上帝的形象创造的人。杀死一个按照上帝的形象创造的人是对上帝自己的冒犯。

在第 6 节中,上帝描述了犯罪,即“凡流人血的,也必被流”。然后,为了宣布惩罚,这三个词被颠倒过来,即“他的血也必被流” 。上帝的正义是成比例的:以量度衡量或以眼还眼。惩罚应该与罪行相称,不应过于严厉。但在这种情况下,正确的回应是以血还血。谁来执行这种惩罚?这是人类的责任。上帝试图纠正洪水之前存在的“不法”状况(创世记 6:11)。人类带有“按照上帝的形象”创造者的印记。上帝将他的重要权威委托给人类,他设立死刑来保护人类的生命。他赋予人类惩罚杀人犯的权利。人类政府通过使用强制力量来追求和维护正义的道德权威源于上帝的这一授权。

诺亚和他的家人因信而免于洪水的毁灭。在第 7 节中,我们看到创世记 9:1 的重复,其中提到诺亚和他的家人要在地球上繁衍生息。他们再次受到劝告要生养众多。上帝的愿望是,所有人类在重新繁衍生息时都对他的仁慈充满信心。
