1“Rend That Veil of Unbelief”

1「將那……不信的幔子撕掉」

2The book of Ether is the record of the Jaredites, who arrived in the promised land centuries before the Nephites. God inspired Moroni to include Ether’s record in the Book of Mormon because of its relevance to our day. How do you feel it is relevant to your life?

2以帖書是雅列人的紀錄，他們比尼腓人早好幾世紀抵達應許地。神給摩羅乃靈感，讓他將以帖的紀錄納入摩爾門經中，因為這份紀錄與我們這個時代息息相關。你覺得這份紀錄與你的生活有何關連？

3Record Your Impressions

3記錄靈感啟發

4While it is true that God’s ways are higher than ours, and we should always submit to His will, He also encourages us to think and act for ourselves. That’s one lesson Jared and his brother learned. For example, the idea of traveling to a new land that was “choice above all the earth” seemed to start in Jared’s mind, and the Lord “had compassion” and promised to grant the request, saying, “Thus I will do unto thee because this long time ye have cried unto me” (see Ether 1:38–43). And when the brother of Jared realized how dark it was inside the barges that would carry them to their promised land, the Lord invited him to suggest a solution, asking a question that we usually ask Him: “What will ye that I should do?” (Ether 2:23). The message seems to be that we shouldn’t expect God to command us in all things. We can share with Him our own thoughts and ideas, and He will listen and give His confirmation or else counsel us otherwise. Sometimes the only thing separating us from the blessings we seek is our own “veil of unbelief,” and if we can “rend that veil” (Ether 4:15), we may be surprised by what the Lord is willing to do for us.

4神的道路誠然高過我們的道路，而我們也理當一直順從祂的旨意，不過祂還是鼓勵我們要自己思考，自己採取行動。這是雅列和他的哥哥學到的一課。例如，雅列才剛萌生一個念頭，想去一塊「比世上所有土地都精選」的新土地，主就心生「憐憫」，答應這項請求，說：「我這樣待你，是因為你向我呼求了這麼久」（見以帖書1：38-43）。雅列的哥哥發現要載他們去應許地的平底船裡會非常暗，而主在請他提出解決辦法的時候，問了一句通常是我們問祂的問題：「你要我怎樣做」（以帖書2：23）？這信息似乎是在告訴我們，不可期望凡事都要神來命令。我們可以跟祂分享自己的想法和意見，祂會聆聽並給予證實，或是給我們其他忠告。有時候，唯一能將我們與所求的祝福隔絕的，是自己「不信的幔子」；我們若能「將那……幔子撕掉」（以帖書4：15），或許會訝異主願意為我們做的一切。

5Ether 1:33–43

5以帖書1：33-43

6As I cry unto the Lord, He will have compassion on me.

6只要我向主呼求，祂就會憐憫我。

7Ether 1:33–43 tells of three prayers of the brother of Jared. What do you learn from the Lord’s response to each of these prayers? Think about a time when you have experienced the Lord’s compassion as you cried unto Him in prayer. You may want to record this experience and share it with someone who may need to hear your testimony.

7以帖書1：33-43講述了雅列的哥哥的三個祈禱。主對這每一個祈禱的回答，讓你學到什麼？想想自己曾在祈禱中向主呼求而體驗到祂的憐憫的經驗。或許你會想要把這個經驗記錄下來，然後跟某個可能需要聽到你的見證的人分享。

8Ether 2; 3:1–6; 4:7–15

8以帖書第2章；3：1-6；4：7-15

9I can receive revelation for my life.

9我可以為自己的生活獲得啟示。

10President Russell M. Nelson said: “I plead with you to increase your spiritual capacity to receive revelation. … Choose to do the spiritual work required to enjoy the gift of the Holy Ghost and hear the voice of the Spirit more frequently and more clearly” (“Revelation for the Church, Revelation for Our Lives,” Ensign or Liahona, May 2018, 96).

10羅素·納爾遜會長說：「我懇請各位增強獲得啟示的靈性能力。……選擇從事必要的屬靈工作來享有聖靈的恩賜，並且更常、更清楚地聽到靈的聲音」（「給教會的啟示，給我們生活的啟示」，2018年5月，利阿賀拿，第96頁）。

11As you study Ether 2; 3:1–6; and 4:7–15, what truths do you find that help you understand how to seek personal revelation? You could mark in one color the questions or concerns the brother of Jared had and what he did about them, and in another color you could mark how the Lord helped him and made His will known. What impresses you about the way the brother of Jared conversed with the Lord, and what do you learn from this about how to increase the flow of revelation in your life?

11研讀以帖書第2章，3：1-6，和4：7-15時，你找到哪些真理，幫助你了解如何尋求個人啟示？你可以用一個顏色劃記雅列的哥哥的問題或擔心的事，以及他如何處理這些問題，再用另一個顏色劃記主如何幫助他、如何顯明祂的旨意。雅列的哥哥與主說話的方式，哪一點讓你印象深刻？關於如何在生活中更常獲得啟示，你從中學到什麼？

12Ether 2:16–25

12以帖書2：16-25

13The Lord will prepare me to cross my “great deep.”

13主會使我預備好渡過我的「大海」。

14To get to the promised land, the Jaredites faced a major obstacle: crossing the “great deep” (Ether 2:25). The phrase “great deep” can be a fitting way to describe what our trials and challenges sometimes feel like. And sometimes, as was the case for the Jaredites, crossing our own “great deep” is the only way to fulfill God’s will for us. Do you see similarities to your life in Ether 2:16–25? How has the Lord prepared you for your challenges? What might He be asking you to do now to prepare for what He needs you to do in the future?

14為了去到應許地，雅列人遇到了一大障礙：橫渡「大海」（以帖書2：25）。「大海」一詞貼切地描述了考驗和挑戰有時給我們的感受。正如雅列人的例子，有時唯有渡過自己的「大海」，才能完成神對我們的旨意。你在以帖書2：16-25中，是否看到與自己生活相似的地方？主曾如何使你預備好面對自己的挑戰？祂現在可能會要求你去做什麼，好使你預備好去做祂將來需要你去做的事？

15Ether 3

15以帖書第3章

16I am created in God’s image.

16我是照著神的形像造的。

17On Mount Shelem, the brother of Jared learned a lot about God and about himself. What do you learn from Ether 3 about the spiritual and physical nature of God? How do these truths help you understand your divine identity and potential?

17雅列的哥哥在歇蘭山學習到許多關於神和他自己的事。關於神在屬靈和身體方面的本質，你從以帖書第3章學到什麼？這些真理如何幫助你了解自己的神聖身份和潛能？

18We are all children of God.

18我們都是神的孩子。

19Ether 3:6–16

19以帖書3：6-16

20Was the brother of Jared the first person to see the Lord?

20雅列的哥哥是第一個看到主的人嗎？

21God had shown Himself to other prophets before the brother of Jared (for example, see Moses 7:4, 59), so why did the Lord say to him, “Never have I showed myself unto man”? (Ether 3:15). Elder Jeffrey R. Holland offered this possible explanation: “Christ was saying to the brother of Jared, ‘Never have I showed myself unto man in this manner, without my volition, driven solely by the faith of the beholder’” (Christ and the New Covenant [1997], 23).

21在雅列的哥哥之前，神就已將自己顯給其他先知看了（例見摩西書7：4，59），那麼主為何還對他說：「我從來沒有顯現給……世人看」（以帖書3：15）？傑佛瑞·賀倫長老給予這番可能的解釋：「基督當時是對雅列的哥哥說：『我從來沒有像這樣顯現給世人——從來沒有像這樣非我所願，不由自主地，單單憑著人的信心就被人看見了』」（Christ and the New Covenant [1997], 23）。

22As 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.

22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：

23Ether 1:34–37

23以帖書1：34-37

24What do we learn from these verses about praying for others? What other truths about prayer do these verses illustrate?

24關於為別人祈禱，我們從這幾節經文學到什麼？這幾節經文還說明了哪些其他關於祈禱的真理？

25Ether 2:16–3:6

25以帖書2：16～3：6

26What does the brother of Jared’s example teach us about how to find answers to our problems and questions? Maybe family members could share experiences when they sought and received answers from the Lord.

26關於如何為自己的困難和問題找出解答，雅列的哥哥的榜樣教導了我們哪些事？或許家人可以分享他們求問主並獲得答案的經驗。

27Ether 4:11–12

27以帖書4：11-12

28After reading these verses, family members could write down some everyday things that influence your family (such as movies, songs, games, or people) on slips of paper and place them in a bowl. Then they could take turns picking one and discussing whether it “persuadeth [them] to do good” (Ether 4:12). What changes does your family feel inspired to make?

28讀完這幾節經文後，家人可以將影響你們家庭的一些日常生活事物（如電影、歌曲、遊戲或人）寫在紙條上，然後將紙條放進一個碗裡。接著輪流取出一張紙條，討論其內容是否「勸〔他們〕行善」（以帖書4：12）。你們家庭覺得受到啟發要做哪些改變？

29Ether 5

29以帖書第5章

30You could hide an object or a treat in a box and invite a family member to look inside and give the rest of the family clues to help them guess what it is. As you read Ether 5 together, discuss why it is important that the Lord uses witnesses in His work. How can we share our witness of the Book of Mormon with others?

30你可以把某個物品或點心藏在盒子裡，然後請一位家人看了盒裡的東西後，給其他家人提示，讓他們猜猜盒裡藏了什麼東西。一起閱讀以帖書第5章時，討論主在祂的事工中有證人為何很重要。我們要如何跟別人分享我們對摩爾門經的見證？

32Improving Our Teaching

32改進教導

33Be ready always. “Informal teaching moments pass quickly, so it is important to take advantage of them when they arise. … For example, a teenager with a difficult decision to make may be ready to learn about how to receive personal revelation” (Teaching in the Savior’s Way, 16).

33隨時準備好。「非正式的教導時機稍縱即逝，把握每一次機會是很重要的。……例如，某位正要作困難抉擇的青少年，可能已經準備好學習如何獲得個人啟示」（以救主的方式教導，第16頁）。
