舊約各卷如何編排? • 舊約三十九卷,再加上新約廿七卷,聖經總共有六十六卷。三九,二十七,這是一個相當好背的數目。 • 舊約三十九卷,巴斯德將它分為三部份: • 1.歷史書: • 2.經驗的書:共五卷,從約伯記、詩篇、箴言、傳道書到雅歌書,。 • 3.先知書:從以賽亞一直到最後的瑪拉基書,一共也是十七卷。
律法書:舊約的前五卷稱為摩西五經 • (1)律法書:舊約的前五卷稱為摩西五經,又稱律法書,就是創世記、出埃及記、利未記、民數記、申命記。 • the founding religious document of Judaism, and is divided into five books, whose names in English are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, in reference to their themes
摩西五經 PENTATEUCH • 摩西五經,又稱為「律法書」,是猶太經典中最重要的部分。新約時代的猶太教徒有一派稱為撒都該人,他們雖然不接受其他的舊約書卷,卻承認摩西五經的權威。由此可見五經在猶太人心目中的崇高地位。 按照性質來說,摩西五經是屬於歷史書卷的體裁,是直接敘述的。因此解釋摩西五經主要是按字面的解釋。

創世記研經資料 • 五經:包括創世記、出埃及記、利未記、民數記、申命記。 • 地位:猶太人視「五經」為舊約最重要的一部份,其權威與神聖性,遠遠 超過「先知書」與「聖卷」。 • 五經的形式:這五經應該是同一部書,但是篇幅太長,無法用一個皮卷抄 完,所以分成五個部份。但其間有相當的關聯性。 • http://a2z.fhl.net/php/pcom.php?book=3&engs=Gen
CREATION • The religious attitudes of the Hebrews appear in the story that they told of the creation of the world and of humankind. • This creation is the work of one God, who is omnipotent and omniscient and who creates a perfect and harmonious order. • The disorder that we see all around us, physical and moral, is not God’s creation but Adam and Eve’s;
CHAOS ORDER DISORDER • Disorder is the consequence of humankind’s disobedience. • The story not only reconciles the undeniable existence of evil and disorder in the world with the conception of God’s infinite justice but also attributes to humanity itself and independence of God, free will, which in this case had been used for evil.
GOD IS ALL-POWER (OMNIPOTENT) • The Hebrew God is not limited in His power by other deities, who oppose His will ( as in the Greek stories of Zeus and his undisciplined family); • His power over inanimate nature is infinite. • In all the range of His creation there is only one being able to resist Him-humankind.
FREE WILL • Because God is all-powerful, even this resistance on Adam and Eve’s part is in some mysterious way a manifestation of God’s will. • How this can be is not explained by the story, and we are left with the mystery that still eludes us, the coexistence of God’s prescient power and humanity’s unrestricted free will.
AFTER THE FALL • The story of the Fall ends with a situation in which Adam and Eve have earned for themselves and their descendants a short life of sorrow relieved only by death.
MERCIFUL AND JUST • It was the achievement of later Hebrew teachers to carry the story on and develop the concept of a God who is as merciful as He is just, who watches tenderly over the destinies of the creatures who have rebelled against Him, and who brings about the possibility of atonement and full reconciliation.
CAIN AND ABEL • Adam and Eve’s son Cain is the first person to shed human blood, but though God drives him out to be a wanderer on the face of the earth, He does not kill him. The brand on Cain’s forehead, while it marks him as a murderer, also protects his life – no one is to touch him.

NOAH’S ARK • Later when the descendants of Adam and Eve grow so wicked that God is sorry He has created the human race, He decides to destroy it by sending a universal flood. But He spares Noah and his family to beget a new human race, on which God pins His hopes.
