亚当在伊甸园违反了全部十条诫命Adam Broke 10 Commandments inthe Garden
作者：Mark Jones译者：Duncan Liang
亚当和妻子吃神命令他们不可吃的那树上果子（创2:16-17;
3:6），他们在伊甸园就违反了哪些诫命？我认为他违反了全部十条诫命，而不只是一两条具体的诫命（参见雅2:10）。
他不信神，就违反了第一条诫命。改革宗人士正确指出，不信神，这是亚当的第一件罪。他未能爱神，而是显出有罪的自爱。他求自己的事。他的罪包括“不相信，不信靠，绝望，骄傲，自以为是和胆怯。”他也没有依靠圣灵。
他违反了第二条诫命。亚当应当用一种具体的方式敬拜神，这包括按神命令亚当要做的，以及命令他不可做的。但亚当违反了正确敬拜神的律例。亚当容忍假宗教，身为先知、祭司和君王，并没有捍卫神的殿。他本应拧掉那蛇的头。
他违反了第三条诫命。亚当身为神的儿子，具有神的形象，却羞辱了他的父。承受神的名的人，必须让神居首位。而且，亚当没有带着敬畏之心使用神的话语（神藉着这话语对亚当说话，警告亚当）。他未能对那条蛇说正确的神学。
他违反了第四条诫命。亚当悖逆，让他不得进入安息日永远的安息。他像我们一样，应竭力进入神的安息（来4:11）。他容许妻子吃神命令他不可吃的那树上的果子，没有以神为“安息”。他让他永远的安息受到危害，这违反了安息。
他违反了第五条诫命。亚当没有尊荣他的父。他若尊荣他的父，本应会日子“长久”。
他违反了第六条诫命。亚当得罪神的时候，像魔鬼一样，就成了一个邪恶杀人的人（罗5）。他对他的后裔负有一种责任，要给他们生命，却给了他们死亡。
他违反了第七条诫命。亚当站在一边，让妻子与魔鬼说话，就没有向他的妻子表现出爱。他本应保护夏娃，却没有这样做。
他违反了第八条诫命。他容许妻子偷窃。她拿了那不属于她的。他与她一道做了这偷盗的事。
他违反了第九条诫命。他未能讲关于神的诚实话，神的良善遭质疑的时候，没有认定这善，就变得像那说谎之人的父一样（约8:44）。亚当本应阻止撒但的毁谤。他容许夏娃取了禁果，就让一个谎言流传下去。
他违反了第十条诫命。亚当不以自己的光景为满足。他不满神赐给他的，贪心要得到神禁止的。
以上解释了亚当背叛神，这为何如此邪恶。他不是仅仅犯了一个错误，而是故意得罪神和他的邻舍。他就这样在不信当中违反了神的全部诫命，而不仅仅是一条而已。
我们自己犯罪，若有，也是极少只违反一条诫命的。我们的罪几乎总是同时违反几条诫命。而且我们违反第二块法板上的罪，通常也是未能遵守第一块法版的律法。例如，我面对违反第七条诫命的人的时候，我的做法就是从前四条诫命开始，而不是仅仅讲第七条诫命。
将来我打算讲一讲基督如何在“旷野”遵守全部十条诫命，回应亚当在伊甸园违反全部十条诫命。
What
commandments did Adam break in the Garden when he and his wife ate from the tree
which God commanded them not to eat from (Gen. 2:16-17; 3:6)? I believe he
broke all ten commandments, not just one or two specific commandments (cf.
James 2:10).
He
broke the first commandment in his unbelief. As the Reformed have rightly
noted, unbelief was Adam's first sin. He failed to love God, but instead showed
sinful self-love. He was self-seeking. His sin included "unbelief,
distrust, despair, pride, presumption, [and] cowardice." There was also a
failure to depend upon the Holy Spirit.
He
broke the second commandment. God was to be worshipped in a particular manner,
which included what Adam was commanded to do, as well as what Adam was
commanded not to do. But Adam transgressed the laws of proper worship. Adam
tolerated false religion and did not (as prophet, priest, and king) guard the
temple of God. He should have snapped the serpent's head off.
He
broke the third commandment. As God's son, and God's image-bearer, Adam brought
dishonour upon his Father. God must be given the pre-eminence by those who bear
his name. Moreover, God's word - the Word by which he spoke to Adam and warned
him - was not reverently used by Adam. He failed to speak true theology to the
serpent.
He
broke the fourth commandment. Adam's disobedience kept him from entering his
eternal Sabbath rest. He was, like us, to make every effort to enter God's rest
(Heb. 4:11). He did not "rest" in God when he allowed his wife to eat
from the tree he was commanded not to eat from. He jeopardized his eternal
rest, which is a violation of the Sabbath.
He
broke the fifth commandment. Adam did not honor his Father. He would have had
"long days" if he had honored his Father.
He
broke the sixth commandment. Adam became a wicked murderer, like the devil,
when he sinned against God (Rom. 5). He had a duty towards his posterity to
give them life, but he gave them death instead.
He
broke the seventh commandment. Adam did not show love to his wife when he stood
by and let her speak with the devil. He should have protected Eve, but he did
not.
He
broke the eighth commandment. He allowed his wife to steal. She took what was
not hers to take. He joined in the act of theft.
He
broke the ninth commandment. He became like the father of lies (Jn. 8:44) by
failing to speak the truth about God and uphold God's goodness when it was
questioned. Adam should have discouraged the slander of Satan. He allowed a lie
to be perpetuated when he allowed Eve to take the forbidden fruit!
He
broke the tenth commandment. Adam was discontent with his own estate. He was
discontent with what God gave to him. And coveted that which God had forbidden.
The
above explains why Adam's apostasy from God was so evil. He did not merely make
a mistake, but willfully sinned against God and his neighbour. In his unbelief,
he thus broke all of God's commandments, not just one.
In
our own sin, we rarely, if ever, break one commandment. Our sins almost always
involve breaking several commandments at once. Moreover, our sins against the
second table of the law are usually a failure in the first table of the law.
When I deal with people who, for example, have trouble with the seventh
commandment, my response is to deal with the first four commandments, and not
just the seventh.
In
the future, I plan to address how Christ kept all ten commandments in the
"wilderness" in response to Adam's breaking of all ten commandments
in the Garden.
