4Some might see King Mosiah’s proposal to replace kings with elected judges as merely wise political reform. But to the Nephites, especially those who lived under wicked King Noah, this change had spiritual significance too. They had seen how an unrighteous king had caused “iniquity” and “great destruction” among his people (Mosiah 29:17), and they were “exceedingly anxious” to be free from such influence. This change would allow them to be responsible for their own righteousness and “answer for [their] own sins” (Mosiah 29:38; see also Doctrine and Covenants 101:78).

4有些人可能認為摩賽亞王提議推選法官取代國王的做法,不過是明智的政治改革。但對尼腓人來說,尤其是那些曾在邪惡的挪亞王統治下生活過的人,這樣的改變在靈性上也別具意義。他們已看過一位不正義的國王在他的人民當中會帶來多少的「罪行」,又造成「多大的毀滅」(摩賽亞書29:17),因此「非常渴望」能夠脫離這樣的影響。這項改變會讓他們為自己的正義負責,也「為自己的罪負責」(摩賽亞書29:38;亦見教約101:78)。

5Of course, the end of the reign of kings did not mean the end of problems in Nephite society. Cunning people like Nehor and Amlici promoted false ideas, nonbelievers persecuted the Saints, and many members of the Church became prideful and fell away. Yet “the humble followers of God” remained “steadfast and immovable” despite what happened around them (Alma 1:25). And because of the change enacted by Mosiah, they could “cast in their voices” to influence their society for good (Alma 2:6).

5當然,結束國王的統治不代表尼腓人的社會就不再有問題。仍有像尼賀和愛姆立沙這樣狡猾的人出來鼓吹錯誤的思想,不信者仍會迫害聖徒,教會的許多成員也變得驕傲而叛離。然而,儘管周遭發生了這樣的事,「神的謙卑信徒」依然「穩固不移」(阿爾瑪書1:25)。由於摩賽亞實施的這項改變,他們也因此能「表示意見」,對他們的社會發揮好的影響力(阿爾瑪書2:6)。

6Mosiah 29:11–27; Alma 2:1–7

6摩賽亞書29:11-27;阿爾瑪書2:1-7

7I can be a positive influence in my community.

7我能在自己的社群中發揮積極正面的影響力。

8Just five years into the reign of the judges, a crisis arose that would test Mosiah’s declaration that the voice of the people would usually choose what was right (see Mosiah 29:26). The issue involved religious freedom: a man named Amlici sought to “deprive [the people] of their rights and privileges of the church” (Alma 2:4). Have you noticed religious rights being threatened in your nation or community? What do you learn from the way the Nephites responded to this threat? (see Alma 2:1–7).

8法官統治才進入第五年,就出現了一個危機,考驗著摩賽亞當初的聲明,即民意通常會選擇正義的事(見摩賽亞書29:26)。這個問題涉及宗教自由:有個叫愛姆立沙的人致力於「剝奪〔人民〕在教會的權利和特權」(阿爾瑪書2:4)。你是否注意到宗教權利在你的國家或社群中受到威脅?你從尼腓人回應這威脅的方式學到什麼?(見阿爾瑪書2:1-7。)

9There are likely many important issues facing your community. How can you, like the Nephites, make sure that your voice is included in “the voice of the people”? Perhaps you live in a place where the voice of the people has limited influence on the government; if so, are there other ways you can be a positive influence in your community?

9你的社群可能正面臨許多重要的問題。你要如何像尼腓人那樣確保自己的聲音也在「民意」中?或許在你居住的地方,民意對政府的影響力有限;如果是這樣,是否還有其他方法可以讓你在自己的社群中發揮積極正面的影響力?

10Alma 1

10阿爾瑪書第1章

11I can recognize and reject false doctrine.

11我可以認出並拒絕假教義。

12Although Nehor eventually confessed that what he taught was false, his teachings continued to influence the Nephites for many years (see Alma 1:15–16; 2:1–2; 14:14–18; 15:15; 21:4; 24:28). Why might people have found Nehor’s teachings enticing? As you read Alma 1:2–4, see if you can identify the falsehoods in Nehor’s teachings; you’ll probably notice that they’re taught alongside partial truths.

12雖然尼賀在最後承認自己的教導是錯的,但他的教導仍然持續影響尼腓人許多年(見阿爾瑪書1:15-16;2:1-2;14:14-18;15:15;21:4;24:28)。為什麼人民覺得尼賀的教導很吸引人?閱讀阿爾瑪書1:2-4,看看是否能找出尼賀教導中的錯誤觀點;你大概會注意到,他的教導夾雜著部分的真理。

13Gideon withstood Nehor “with the words of God” (Alma 1:7, 9). Can you think of scriptures that refute Nehor’s falsehoods? Here are some examples, but there are many others: Matthew 7:21–23; 2 Nephi 26:29–31; Mosiah 18:24–26; and Helaman 12:25–26. How can these scriptures help you refute falsehoods taught today?

13基甸「用神的話」駁斥尼賀(阿爾瑪書1:7,9)。你想得到可以用來駁斥尼賀的錯誤觀點的經文嗎?以下是一些例子,但還有更多其他經文:馬太福音7:21-23;尼腓二書26:29-31;摩賽亞書18:24-26;希拉曼書12:25-26。這些經文能如何幫助你駁斥現今社會教導的錯誤觀點?

14Another way to approach your study of Alma 1 is to compare Nehor and his followers (verses 3–9, 16–20) with “the people of God” (verses 25–30; see also 2 Nephi 26:29–31). How can you be more like the people of God? Do you notice any “priestcraft” in your own service?

14研讀阿爾瑪書第1章的另一方式,是將尼賀和他的跟隨者(第3-9,16-20節)與「神的人民」(第25-30節;亦見尼腓二書26:29-31)作一比較。你要如何更像神的人民?你是否在自己的服務中注意到任何「祭司權術」?

15Alma 1:27–31; 4:6–15

15阿爾瑪書1:27-31;4:6-15

16True disciples of Jesus Christ do not set their hearts upon riches.

16耶穌基督的真正門徒不會把心放在財富上。

17Chapters 1 and 4 of Alma both describe periods when the Church prospered, but Church members responded to that prosperity differently in each case. What differences do you notice? Based on what you find, how would you describe the attitude that “humble followers of God” (Alma 4:15) have toward riches and prosperity? What do you feel inspired to change about your own attitude?

17阿爾瑪書第1章和第4章都描述了教會昌盛的時期,不過教會成員對那樣的昌盛繁榮卻各有不同的反應。你注意到有哪些不同?根據你所發現的,你會如何描述「神的謙卑信徒」(阿爾瑪書4:15)對財富和昌盛的態度?你覺得自己受到啟發,要改變自己的哪些態度?

18Alma 4

18阿爾瑪書第4章

19The “word of God” and “pure testimony” can change hearts.

19「神的話」和「純正的見證」可以改變人心。

20What made Alma “very sorrowful” (Alma 4:15) in Alma 4? Some might say that the office of chief judge would have put Alma in the best position to solve the problems he saw among his people. But Alma felt there was a better way. What impresses you about his approach to helping his people? Your study may inspire thoughts about how you can righteously influence those around you; if so, act on those thoughts.

20在阿爾瑪書第4章中,何事讓阿爾瑪「非常憂傷」(阿爾瑪書4:15)?有些人可能會說,首席法官的職位會讓阿爾瑪處在最佳的位置,來解決他在人民中看到的問題。不過阿爾瑪卻覺得有更好的方式。他幫助人民的方式,有哪些地方令你印象深刻?你在研讀時可能會得到一些靈感啟發,讓你知道如何對周遭的人發揮正義的影響力;如果是這樣,要按照這些念頭採取行動。

21As you read the scriptures with your family, the Spirit can help you know what principles to emphasize and discuss in order to meet the needs of your family. Here are some ideas.

21你和家人一起閱讀經文時,聖靈會幫助你知道該強調並討論哪些原則,以符合家庭的需求。以下是一些建議:

22Alma 1:19–25

22阿爾瑪書1:19-25

23Your family might benefit from identifying the different ways Church members responded to persecution in these verses. Maybe you could practice ways to respond appropriately when others attack our beliefs. The Religious Freedom Videos might help.

23找出這幾節經文中教會成員回應迫害的不同方式,可能會讓你的家庭受益。或許你們可以練習如何得體地回應別人對我們信仰的攻擊。ChurchofJesusChrist.org/religious-freedom/examples的影片可能有所幫助。

24Alma 3:4

24阿爾瑪書3:4

25What message did the Amlicites want to communicate when they “set [a] mark upon themselves”? (see Alma 3:4, 13). What messages might we send—intentionally or unintentionally—with our appearance? This might be a good time to review “Dress and Appearance” in For the Strength of Youth (2011), 6–8.

25愛姆立沙人在自己「身上做記號」(見阿爾瑪書3:4,13),是希望傳達什麼信息?我們的儀容可能有意無意間在傳達什麼信息?這可能是複習鞏固青年(2011),第6-8頁,「服裝儀容」的好機會。

26Alma 4:2–3

26阿爾瑪書4:2-3

27What things or experiences have “awakened [us] to a remembrance of [our] duty” toward God? (Alma 4:3). Maybe it would be effective to share these verses after waking your family in the morning. You might then discuss how the challenges of waking up physically help us understand the challenges of waking up spiritually.

27哪些事物或經驗曾「喚醒〔我們〕記起自己〔對神的〕職責」(阿爾瑪書4:3)?早上喚醒家人後就分享這幾節經文,效果可能會很好。接著你們可以討論,喚醒身體的挑戰如何幫助我們了解喚醒靈性的挑戰。

28Alma 4:10–11

28阿爾瑪書4:10-11

29How can we avoid being a “stumbling-block to those who [do] not belong to the church”? (Alma 4:10). It might also be useful to talk about how we can make sure the actions of others, particularly fellow Church members, do not become stumbling blocks for our spiritual progress.

29我們要如何避免成為不屬於教會的人的「絆腳石」(阿爾瑪書4:10)?談談我們要如何確保別人的行為,尤其是其他教會成員的行為,不成為我們靈性進步的絆腳石,可能也會很有幫助。

30Alma 4:19

30阿爾瑪書4:19

31To help your family understand the power of testimony, you could ask them to think of a time when hearing someone’s testimony affected them deeply. Why might Alma have chosen to use testimony and the word of God to touch the hearts of the people? (see also Alma 31:5). Why is this more effective than other methods people might use to persuade others to change? Are there people whose faith we could strengthen by sharing our testimonies with them?

31要幫助家人了解見證的力量,可以請他們想想曾在哪個時候因聽見某人的見證而深受影響。為什麼阿爾瑪要選擇用見證和神的話來觸動人心?(亦見阿爾瑪書31:5。)為什麼用這種方式來說服別人改變,效果會比用其他方式更好?我們可以跟誰分享見證,進而增強他們的信心?

33Improving Personal Study

33改進個人研讀

34Liken the scriptures to yourself. Consider how the stories and teachings of the scriptures apply to your life. For example, you might find parallels between today’s world and the societal problems the Nephites faced in Alma 1–4.

34將經文比作對自己說的。思考經文中的故事和教導要如何應用在你的生活中。例如,你可能會發現阿爾瑪書第1~4章中尼腓人面對的社會問題與今日世界的問題相似。
