李常受對利未記中燔祭的釋義及應用

本文以李常受的著作為主，輔以倪柝聲及其他聖經學者如黃儀章、洪同勉、高路易（Louis Goldberg）、郝思（Paul R. House）、邁爾斯（James L. Mays）等的著作，探討李氏對燔祭的釋義與解讀，以及在新約書卷的對照應用。燔祭是利未記中五祭最基本的祭，五祭就是燔祭、素祭、平安祭、贖罪祭、贖愆祭等五種祭，本文著重探討燔祭。第一章為緒論，說明研究動機與目的、研究議題內容、文獻回顧及研究的方法。第二章論舊約的獻祭，從近東的獻祭與文化的背景，探討以色列人在列祖時代的獻祭與文化背景，將近東與以色列人在獻祭上作區別，進而探討摩西五經各書卷的關係，以及利未記中五種祭的關聯。第三章論述燔祭的介紹，內容包括獻祭的種類、獻祭的地點、獻祭的人、燔祭的過程、燔祭的特點、燔祭的要求、血、水與火。第四章論述燔祭的豫表、屬靈意義及燔祭的實際，以及論述燔祭在新約書卷的應驗與應用，第五章以舊約的獻祭和新約的獻祭作總結。文中論述李氏某些獨特的見解，譬如：基督自己就是燔祭；燔祭啟示父、子、靈的神聖三一；燔祭是神的食物；代贖；遮罪；燔祭的過程中的按手與聯合；燔祭的結果產生的灰；經歷基督作燔祭的生活；取用基督作我們的燔祭等。強調在對基督的享受中經歷基督，並獻上所經歷的基督，藉著經歷祂，將祂當作我們的燔祭獻給神。李氏的獻祭神學思想，對現代基督徒的信仰實踐，以及在召會的聚會或事奉經歷基督作燔祭，能調整與神與人的關係，加深基督徒生命的長大，值得深入探討。

This research focuses on the writings of Witness Lee, supplemented by the writings of Watchman Nee and other biblical scholars such as Louis Goldberg, Paul R. House, and James L. Mays, to explore Lee’s interpretation of the burnt offering and its application to the New Testament. The burnt offering is the most basic of the five offerings in Leviticus, which are the burnt offering, the meal offering, the peace offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering. The first chapter is the introduction, which explains the motivation and purpose of the study, the content of the research questions, the literature review, and the methodology of the study. Chapter 2 discusses the Old Testament sacrifices, looking at the cultural background of the Near Eastern sacrifices, the cultural background of the Israelite sacrifices in the time of the fathers, and the distinction between the Near Eastern and Israelite sacrifices. Chapter 3 deals with the introduction of burnt offerings, including the types of offerings, the places of offerings, the people who offered the offerings, the process of burnt offerings, the characteristics of burnt offerings, the requirements of burnt offerings, blood, water and fire. The Fourth chapter discusses the spiritual significance and practical aspects of burnt offerings. The fourth chapter discusses the experience and application of burnt offerings in the New Testament books, and the Fifth chapter concludes with the Old Testament and New Testament offerings. The research discusses some of Lee’s unique insights, such as: Christ Himself is the burnt offering; the burnt offering reveals the Holy Trinity of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit; the burnt offering is the food of God; substitutionary atonement; the covering of sins; the laying on of hands and union in the process of the burnt offering; the ash produced as a result of the burnt offering; experiencing the life of Christ as a burnt offering; and taking Christ as our burnt offering. The emphasis is on experiencing Christ in the enjoyment of Christ and offering Christ experienced, and by experiencing Him, offering Him as our burnt offering to God. Lee’s theology of sacrifice is worthy of deeper exploration for the practice of faith of contemporary Christians, and for the experience of Christ as a burnt offering in service or ministry, which can adjust the relationship with God and man and enhance the growth of Christian life.
