Fr. Mike Schmitz: 大卫在临终之际,向他的儿子所罗门传达了一系列的指令和建议。我强调,这些遗言不仅仅是关于权力的交接,更是关于智慧的传承。大卫告诫所罗门要坚强,要像一个真正的男子汉那样行事,遵守上帝的诫命,并公正地处理那些曾经反对他的人。然而,我也指出,大卫的榜样与他的建议之间存在着差距。尽管大卫在许多方面都遵守了上帝的诫命,但他对家庭的投入不足,他的心也并非完全属于上帝。因此,所罗门可能会更多地效仿他父亲的榜样,而不是听从他的建议,这可能会对他的统治产生影响。我希望通过分析大卫的遗言,能够帮助听众更好地理解智慧的真正含义,以及如何在生活中将智慧付诸实践。我也希望听众能够从大卫的错误中吸取教训,避免重蹈覆辙,从而建立一个更加稳固和繁荣的王国。 Fr. Mike Schmitz: 我认为,大卫的遗言中蕴含着深刻的智慧,但他的生活方式却未能完全体现这些智慧。我注意到,孩子们往往更关注父母的榜样,而不是他们提供的建议。大卫的榜样是一个分裂的心,他没有充分地指导或父亲他的孩子。因此,所罗门可能会效仿他父亲的榜样,而不是听从他的建议。我强调,大卫的遗言不仅仅是关于权力的交接,更是关于智慧的传承。大卫告诫所罗门要坚强,要像一个真正的男子汉那样行事,遵守上帝的诫命,并公正地处理那些曾经反对他的人。然而,我也指出,大卫的榜样与他的建议之间存在着差距。尽管大卫在许多方面都遵守了上帝的诫命,但他对家庭的投入不足,他的心也并非完全属于上帝。因此,所罗门可能会更多地效仿他父亲的榜样,而不是听从他的建议,这可能会对他的统治产生影响。
