예수 그리스도의 나심 (6) [ 사도행전 1 장 1-11 절 ; 빌립보서 2 장 6-7 절 ] 우리가 사도행전 1 장 1-11 절 말씀을 본문으로 선택한 이유는 예수 그리스도께서 행하신 일들 중에서 제일 중요한 5 가지 일들을 묵상하기 위해서입니다 : (1) 예수 그리스도의 나심 , (2) 죽으심 , (3) 부활하심 , (4) 승천 , (5) 재림 . 그러나 이 본문에는 예수님의 나심에 대해서는 없기에 , 오늘은 빌립보서 2 장 6-7 절 말씀을 본문으로 선택하였습니다 : “ 그는 근본 하나님의 본체시나 하나님과 동등됨을 취할 것으로 여기지 아니하시고 오히려 자기를 비워 종의 형체를 가지사 사람들과 같이 되셨고 .” 여기에 보면 예수님의 나심에 대해서 찾아 볼 수가 있습니다 . 이 말씀 중심으로 “ 에수 그리스도의 나심 (6)” 이란 제목 아래 예수 그리스도의 나심에 대해서 묵상하고자 합니다 . 빌립보서 2 장 6 절 말씀입니다 : “ 그는 근본 하나님의 본체시나 하나님과 동등됨을 취할 것으로 여기지 아니하시고 .” 여기서 “ 그는 ” “ 그리스도 예수 ”(5 절 ) 를 가리킵니다 . 그리고 그리스도 예수님은 “ 근본 하나님의 본체 ” 시라 (6 절 ) 는 말씀은 그리스도 예수님은 성자 하나님이시라는 말씀입니다 .

Three things that happened
when Jesus died
When Jesus gave a loud cry and breathed His
last, three events occurred: (1) the temple curtain was torn in two from top to
bottom, (2) the earth shook and rocks split, and (3) the tombs broke open and
many of the dead saints were raised to life and came out of the tombs after
Jesus' resurrection (Matthew 27:50-53, Korean Modern Bible).
(1)
The tearing
of the temple curtain from top to bottom symbolizes that, through the torn body
of Jesus, the great sacrifice, a new and living way was opened for us to
approach God (Hebrews 10:19-20). This
means that any sinner, relying on Jesus' atoning death, can boldly come
directly to God (Hokma).
(2)
The
simultaneous events of the tearing of the temple curtain and the shaking of the
earth with splitting rocks signify the presence of God as the righteous Judge,
as a result of the death of Jesus, His only Son (Psalms 18:7; Isaiah 5:25; Joel
2:10). For those who accept Jesus' death
by faith, it symbolizes the presence of God as the New Covenant and Creator;
for those who continue in unbelief, it suggests the presence of God as the Lord
of wrath and eternal judgment (Hokma).
(3)
As a result
of the earthquake, the large stone blocking the entrance of the tombs was
rolled away, and many bodies of saints who had died were raised. This is a fulfillment of the belief that there
would be a resurrection of the dead when the Messiah (Christ) came (Matthew
9:25; 22:23). It also serves as a sign
of the resurrection of all the saints at the second coming of Jesus.
Their
resurrection should be seen not as a restoration of life on earth, but as a
demonstration of the power of Jesus' resurrection. Therefore, it is likely that they were
resurrected in glorified bodies. In any
case, the bodies of the dead rising from their graves and coming out after
Jesus' resurrection symbolize (1) the victory of Jesus Christ over death and
the life-giving influence that victory brings to the saints (1 Corinthians
15:55-57), (2) the vivid testimony that Jesus is the firstfruits of the
resurrection of the saints (verse 23), and (3) the liberation of the saints
from the power of the grave through Jesus' death and resurrection, allowing
them to enjoy the joy of life (Ephesians 4:8-9) (Hokma, Internet).
