W3 2013-11-06以賽亞書3
3:13 耶和華起來辯論，站著審判眾民。
3:14 耶和華必審問他民中的長老和首領，說：吃盡葡萄園果子的就是你們；向貧窮人所奪的都在你們家中。
3:15 主─萬軍之耶和華說：你們為何壓制我的百姓，搓磨貧窮人的臉呢？
默想: 從以賽亞的角度來看，上帝對以色列人的要求有兩個重點，一個是對上帝忠誠的敬拜，以賽亞先知批評以色列人去敬拜他神、偶像，行為離棄耶和華。另外一方面，先知攻擊以色列人的官長，他們欺壓窮人，搶奪弱勢者的所有。
先知說他們，「吃盡葡萄園果子的就是你們；向貧窮人所奪的都在你們家中。」(14)上帝質問以色列的官長「為何壓制我的百姓，搓磨貧窮人的臉呢？」(15)從這些經文中，我們明顯地看到，那些在上有權的官長，仗勢強取豪奪，為自己累積財富。同時他們自以為高高在上，就欺壓伍慢窮人。這樣的人，上帝要審判他，因為他們的貪婪對猶大社會所造成的傷害是無可饒恕的，他們關心的是自己的利益，而未曾看見弱勢者的處境。先知以賽亞所要揭示的，是上帝對於人類社會與道德的責任。一個只關心自已利益，而忘了社會責任與道德的國家、團體或個人，都將被上帝所審問。
題目: 根據本章經文，以色列的領袖為何被耶和華審問呢？
hall be well with him : for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

3:12 至於我的百姓，孩童欺壓他們，婦女轄管他們。我的百姓啊，引導你的使你走錯，並毀壞你所行的道路。

3:15 主─萬軍之耶和華說：你們為何壓制我的百姓，搓磨貧窮人的臉呢？
What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? saith the Lord GOD of hosts.
3:16 耶和華又說：因為錫安的女子狂傲，行走挺項，賣弄眼目，俏步徐行，腳下玎璫，

And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty.
