上帝頒佈十誡
經文:
出埃及記19－20章
中心思想:
出埃及記20：1－17
提要
西乃山上，以色列百姓接受上帝的憲章成為選民的那一幕，強調的重點是上帝的尊嚴與聖潔。接受之前，百姓宣誓願意遵守誡命，隨後，他們以兩天的時間預備自己，聆聽上帝的訓誨。第三天，摩西上山接受十誡的時候，令人敬畏的自然景象彰顯了上帝的全能。十誡──全國人民行為依據的準則。

每日與主同行
場景一：你被懸掛在一根鏈條上，鏈條又在深淵之上搖擺幌動，險象環生，你擔心自己生命危在旦夕，一位同伴卻給你這樣的安慰：「別怕，每一個環節都能夠承受你的重量。
場景二：你在家具行裏，想找一面鏡子佈置客廳，然後你不期然的發現一面鏡子，上面寫著：「售──最堅實的鏡子──只需要給它一記。」
以上這兩各故事有什麼相同之處？兩者都在描述一個愚不可及的拯救，就是破壞律法。
在一個完好堅固的鏈條上，只要繫一個破損的扣環就能陷你於死地：在一面完整的鏡子上，只要一擊就能使它成為碎片。「因為凡遵守全律法的，只在一條上跌倒，他就是犯了眾條。」（雅2：10）
為了得救，我們要盡一切所能的遵守律法──在你一生中絕對的遵守每一個細節，其實古今中外，除了耶穌基督，沒有一個人能夠做到！加拉太書三章二十四節認為：律法的目的不是拯救你，而是要指出你的罪來，更重要的是指出一個真理：唯有上帝的羔羊才能清除人的罪（約1：29）。
場景三：耶穌在等候你承認你不能救拔自己，歸向祂才是一切的答案，你會這麼做嗎？就在今天！

默想
十誡──以三點觀之
事實上，「十誡」──共頒佈了三次：（一）上帝的口諭（20：1－17）；（二）在石版上（24：12－18）；（三）刻在另兩塊摩西預備的石版上，代替摔碎的那一套（34：1，28，29）。

金言
律法說：「去做！」恩典說：「成了！」
Ten Commands for God's People
Scriptures:
Exodus 19-20
Heart of the Passage:
Exodus 20:1-17
Overview
At Mount Sinai, a setting designed to focus on the majesty and holiness of God, the people receive their charter as God's chosen nation. After declaring their willingness to abide by the commands they arc about to receive, the Israelites spend two days preparing themselves to hear God's voice. On the third day, accompanied by an awesome display of God's power, Moses receives the Ten Commandments—the broad moral principles on which the nation's conduct will be based.

Your Daily Walk
Seme One: You are suspended by a chain over a deep abyss, when a companion says: "Don't worry; all but one of the links will hold your weight."
Scene Two: You are in furniture store looking for a mirror to adorn your living room when you across a display which reads: "Nearly Perfect Mirrors For Sale—Only One Crack in Each."
What do these two tales have in common? They both illustrate the folly of trying to be saved by keeping the law.
Only one broken link in an otherwise perfect chain plunges you to your death. Only one crack ruins the entire mirror. And "Whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all" (James 2:10).
In order to be saved by keeping the law, you would have to keep it absolutely in every point throughout your lifetime. No one but Jesus could ever do that! According to Galatians 3:24, the purpose of the law is not to save you, but to show you what sin is, and to point yon to the Christ who alone can take it away.
Scene Three: Jesus waits for you to admit you cannot save yourself, and to turn to Him as the answer: Will you do it? Today?

Insight
The Ten Commandments—in Triplicate
The "Ten Words" were actually given three times: (1) orally by God (Exodus 20:1-17); (2) on stone tablets (Exodus 24:12-18); and (3) on duplicate tablets prepared by Moses to replace the set
he broke (Exodus 34:1, 28-29).
