How did Joseph keep his integrity and trust in God despite being sold into slavery and being imprisoned?

约瑟在被卖为奴、后来又被下在监里时,他是如何持守正直,并继续信靠神的?

He chose to fear God rather than worry about others' approval and the consequences that might befall him. He had an unwavering devotion to God, which allowed him to interpret the bigger picture rather than focus on his reasons for complaints and bitterness.

他選擇敬畏神,而不去在意別人的認同或自己可能面臨的後果。他對神有著堅定不移的忠誠,這使他能夠從宏觀全局的角度看待事物,而不至於糾結於自己抱怨和憤懣的緣由。

In the Bible, we see that God protected the Israelites from plagues 4-10. What does this teach us about God's Character?

在圣经中,我们看见神在第4至第10灾中保护了以色列人。这让我们认识到神是怎样的一位神?

 It teaches us that if we don’t do anything wrong, then God will protect us because he protects his own people and he also protects the righteous.
这教导我们,神看顾并保护属祂的人,也保护行在祂旨意中的义人。即使我们面对困难或不公平的对待,我们仍然可以相信神的看顾和保护。

 Joseph’s brothers threw him into a pit as a direct consequence of their jealousy. What did Joseph do, and what can we learn from him today?


约瑟的兄弟们出于嫉妒,把他扔进了坑里。这是他们嫉妒心直接造成的后果。约瑟之后是怎么做的?我们今天可以从他身上学到什么?

The life application teaches that though we can’t control how others treat us, we can control what we do - our own response and faith in God.

虽然我们无法控制别人怎样对待自己,但我们可以掌控自己的态度,坚守对神的信心。

 In the battle of Ai, not only do we learn of the Israelites’ failure and sin, but we also learn of God's redemption and power. How can we apply these teachings to our lives?


在艾城的战役中,我们不但看见以色列人的失败和罪,也看见神的救赎与大能。我们可以如何把这些教导应用在自己的生命中?

Always remember to seek God first, no matter how small the problem is. Our sin can lead to consequences that not only affect us negatively but also affect those around us. Past victories can cause us to stumble, so we must stay humble and remember God's true power and providence in our lives. After we face defeat, always remember to reflect on our actions and turn back to God, who is the one who can save us from our sins

无论问题看起来多么微小,都要记得先寻求神。我们的罪会带来后果,不但会伤害自己,也可能影响并伤害身边的人。过去的胜利可能使我们跌倒,因此我们必须保持谦卑,并记得神在我们生命中真正的能力和供应。当我们经历失败时,要记得反省自己的行为,并回转归向神,因为唯有祂能够拯救我们脱离罪。

How can we apply the truth of God’s protection during hard times to everyday life? 

我们可以如何把神在困难时期保护我们的真理应用在日常生活中?


We can apply the truth of God’s protection to our everyday lives by remembering that even if we were being wronged, we shouldn’t be scared of doing the right thing because God will protect us. For example, having the courage to speak up when something is wrong or keeping the commandments when the people around us do not.

我们可以把神的保护应用在日常生活中,记得即使我们受到不公平的对待,也不需要因为害怕而放弃做正确的事,因为我们可以信靠神。例如,当我们看见不对的事情时,勇敢地站出来说话;或者当身边的人都没有遵守神的诫命时,我们仍然坚持遵守神的诫命。
