学习谦和

Humility

“摩西为人极其谦和，胜过世上的众人。”

—民 12:3

"Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth." —Numbers 12:3

🙏 灵修

摩西与姐姐米利暗和哥哥亚伦的关系相当复杂。神曾使用米利暗拯救了婴孩摩西不致被杀害，而当摩西要向埃及王进言时，亚伦曾是他的代言人（参看出埃及记1-3），他们三姐弟无疑是相亲相爱的。然而手足之间的竞争，显然已经开始侵蚀米利暗和亚伦了：他们不喜欢摩西的外邦妻子，他们也似乎妒忌摩西被神拣选作一位特殊使命的先知。只见他们开始毁谤摩西说：“难道（神）不也与我们说话吗？”

Moses' relationship with his sister, Miriam, and brother, Aaron, was complicated. Miriam had been used by God to rescue baby Moses from slaughter, and Aaron had been Moses' mouthpiece when speaking to the king of Egypt (see Exodus 1-3). Doubtless the three loved each other. Yet sibling rivalry apparently began to gnaw at Miriam and Aaron: they didn't like Moses' foreign wife, and they seemed jealous of Moses' position as God's special prophet. They began to talk against Moses: "Hasn't [God] also spoken through us?"

摩西没有因为兄姐贬低他的地位而怀恨在心，可见他为人多么谦和也充满爱。神拣选他领导以色列时，他从来没有打算寻求名声，事实上，他根本不想做这个领袖！他也知道，他有幸能够面对面与神交谈，完全是因为神的恩典。和耶稣一样，摩西是一位代祷者，他祈求神医治米利暗。
