Words of the Day

The 19th name of God that I am going to learn is El Chay. The title El Chay, the Living God, emphasizes God’s role as Creator of all that is, in contrast with idols made of metal, wood, or stone, which are merely the creations of human hands.  The Living God is himself maker of heaven and earth. He alone is the source of our life. We live because He lives.
我將研讀的第19個神的名字是El Chay 永活的神。El Chay,永活的神這個稱謂強調了神作為萬物創造者的角色,與金屬、木頭或石頭製成的偶像形成鮮明對比,這些偶像只是人手的創作。 活神自己是天地的創造者。 只有祂是我們生命的源泉。 我們活著,因為祂活著。

Jeremiah 10:3-5

The religion of the people is worthless.
Woodcutters cut down trees from the forest.
The hands of craftsmen prepare them with axes.
Craftsmen decorate them with silver and gold
and fasten them together with hammers and nails
so that they won’t fall over.
These trees are like scarecrows in cucumber gardens.
They aren’t able to speak.
They have to be carried, because they can’t walk.
Don’t be afraid of them.
They can’t harm you.
They can’t do you any good either.
耶利米書 10:3-5

眾民的風俗是虛空的;
他們在樹林中
用斧子砍伐一棵樹,
匠人用手工造成偶像。
他們用金銀妝飾他,
用釘子和錘子釘穩,
使他不動搖。
他好像棕樹,是鏇成的,
不能說話,不能行走,
必須有人擡著。
你們不要怕他;
他不能降禍,也無力降福。
