Word Study 文字研習


Lo-Ruhamah and Lo-Ammi were the prophet Hosea’s younger two children 
(Hos 1:6, 8, 9). 
They were named to symbolize the Israelites’ continuing sin against God 
and His subsequent wrath and punishment 
during the decline and end of both Israel and Judah.

“羅‧路哈瑪”(Lo-Ruhamah)和“羅‧阿米”(Lo-Ammi)是先知何西阿的兩個小孩
(何 1:6,8,9)。  
他們的名字象徵以色列人持續犯罪得罪神,
以及神接著發怒並懲罰,  
正值以色列國的衰敗和猶大國滅亡的時期。


Ruhamah means “mercy” and ammi means “my people,” 
and the prefix lo means “no or not.” 
So Lo-Ruhamah means “no mercy” and Lo-Ammi means “not my people,” 
showing that God would no longer protect and care for the Israelites as His own.

“路哈瑪”(Ruhamah)意思是“憐憫”,而“亞米”(Ammi)意思是“我的子民”,  
而字首“羅”(Lo)則表示“沒有”或“不是”。  
因此,“羅‧路哈瑪”(Lo-Ruhamah)意為“沒有憐憫”,“羅‧亞米”(Lo-Ammi)意為“不是我的子民”,  
這表示神不會再保護照顧以色列人,如同是祂的子民。


Did You Know? 你知道嗎?


What did people in biblical times write with and on?

在聖經時代,人們書寫的工具和紀錄的材料是什麼呢?


They wrote with metal chisels 
(Job 19:24) 
on stone tablets 
(Ex 34:4), 
and sharpened reed and ink 
(Jer 36:18) 
on papyrus paper
(Isa 8:1). 
The Hebrew word for ink is deyo (for its blackness) 
and it was made by mixing charcoal or soot with water. 
Papyrus paper was made by pounding strips of papyrus branches woven together 
and sewing sheets of it together to make scrolls.

他們用金屬鑿子書寫
(伯 19:24)
刻在石版上
(出 34:4),  
並用削尖的蘆葦和墨水
(耶 36:18)
書寫在草紙上
(賽 8:1)。  
希伯來文的「墨水」是“deyo”(意指它是黑色),  
它是通過混合木炭煤灰與水製成的。  
莎草紙是通過莎草敲打的枝條編織在一起製成的,  
然後縫合多張草紙在一起製成捲 軸。
