一、引领(V1-2)
以色列人经历神引领他们走出埃及,四十年在矿野漂流的生活,神引领他们进入迦南应许之地。上一代的以色列人都没有了,神让新一代的以色列人回顾,神如何引领他们列祖起誓应许的那地。
二、苦炼(V3-5)
以色列人在旷野经常过着缺乏的日子,没有水和食物。神要使以色列人知道神是他们的供应者。神苦练以色列人要知道他们心内如何,肯守祂的诫命不肯。神最终使他们蒙福长寿。
三、供应(V6-10)
神苦炼你,任你饥饿,将你和你列祖所不认识的吗哪赐给你吃,神也应许以色列人最终进入流奶与蜜之地。神曾赐他们鹌鹑肉,又赐他们十二个水泉。神最终要以色列人晓得人活着不是单靠食物,乃是靠耶和华口里所出的一切话。
四、试验(V11-17)
神揭露以色列人内心的状态,以色列因牛羊加多金银增添,并因所有的全都加增, 就心高气傲,忘记耶和华他们的神。神引他们经过大而可怕的旷野,干旱无水之地。神就藉此试验他们,看他们在苦难中是否信靠神。
五、管教(V18-207)
神管教以色列人,好像人管教儿子一样。神灭绝迦南地的人是因着他们最大恶极,神警戒以色列人不要效法迦南人犯罪:你们若忘记耶和华你们的神,随从别神,侍奉敬拜,你们必定灭亡;这是我今日警戒你们的。
总结:
摩西提醒以色列人纪念神的引导,在旷野神引领他们,苦炼他们,试验他们,供应他们,管教他们。如今他们新一代的以色列人,不单要纪念神的引导,还要顺服祂的引导,迦南美地便是他们的。
Deuteronomy 8: Recalling God’s grace

Speaker: Rev Moses Li
Introduction:
1. Leading (V1-2)
The Israelites experienced God leading them out of Egypt, forty years of wandering in the wilderness, and God leading them into the Promised Land of Canaan. The previous generation of Israelites were gone, and God allowed the new generation of Israelites to review how God led them to the land that their fathers had sworn to promise.
2. Hard Practice (V3-5)
The Israelites often lived in the wilderness in lack, without water and food. God wanted the Israelites to know that He was their provider. God trained the Israelites to know how they would keep His commandments in their hearts and refuse to do so. God ultimately blessed them with a long life.
3. Provision (V6-10)
God afflicted you with hunger, and gave you manna, which you and your fathers did not know, to eat, and God promised that the Israelites would finally enter a land flowing with milk and honey. God had given them quail meat and twelve springs of water. God ultimately wanted Israel to know that man does not live by food alone, but by all the words that come from the mouth of the LORD.
4. Experiment (V11-17)
God revealed the state of Israel's heart, that because of the increase of cattle and sheep, and the increase of silver and gold, and because of the increase of all things, Israel became proud and forgot the LORD their God. God led them through a great and terrible wilderness, a dry and waterless land. By this God tested them to see whether they would trust in God in their affliction.
5. Discipline (V18-20)
God disciplined the Israelites as a man disciplines his son. God exterminated the people of the land of Canaan because they were the most wicked. God warned the Israelites not to sin after the Canaanites: Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish.
Conclusion:
Moses reminded the Israelites to remember God's guidance, that in the wilderness God led them, refined them, tested them, provided for them, and disciplined them. Now they, the new generation of Israel, should not only remember God's guidance, but also obey His guidance, and the land of Canaan will be theirs.
