是亞伯拉罕身生眾子、不得盡為上帝眾子、惟所許之眾子、可為裔明矣、

是則非肉體所生者為天主之子、惟所應許之子、方視之為裔、

In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring.

In other words, God’s children are not just in the family line of Abraham. Instead, they are the children God promised to him. They are the ones considered to be Abraham’s children.

This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as offspring.

This means that Abraham’s physical descendants are not necessarily children of God. Only the children of the promise are considered to be Abraham’s children.

卓哉身分。若輩之生。非緣血氣。惟自天主。無與人意。

蓋爾等皆因信仰耶穌基督、而成天主之子女矣。爾中凡已領洗而歸依基督者、實已服膺基督、有如衣之被體焉。故無論猶太人也、希臘人也、奴也主也、男也女也、悉在基督耶穌之身、融為一體矣。夫爾等既屬基督即為亞伯漢之裔、亦即承恩諾之嗣子也。

其受割之儀式、不過為因信成義之印證、而其信德則於未割之時、固已全具矣。因是亞伯漢乃為未受割而因信成義者之父、亦為既受割而能踵效其未割時所具之信德者之父也。蓋亞伯漢及其苗裔、承天主恩諾、得嗣大地者、非憑律法之制、乃緣信德之義。若惟屬於律法者得為嗣子、是不啻廢棄信德、而致恩諾於無效也。夫法者、刑戮之器也；法之不存、何犯之有。是故人之為嗣、所緣惟信德、所恃惟慈惠；庶幾天主之恩諾、能普被眾裔、不僅限於屬法者亦且兼及具有亞伯漢之信德者。

主點聖民。錄之於册。彼哉彼哉。西溫所出。

經中明載亞伯漢有二子、一為婢女所出、一為主婦所出。然婢女之子、乃因肉情而生；而主婦之子、則憑恩諾而生。於此寓有象徵焉：彼二婦者、即二約也；一約出於西乃山、生子為奴、夏甲是也。此夏甲即亞刺伯之西乃山、亦可象徵現在之耶路撒冷；蓋耶路撒冷及其子女、猶未解放也。惟在彼之上、尚有一耶路撒冷焉、則為主婦、亦即吾人之母氏也。經有之：『不妊不育之婦乎、爾可揚眉而吐氣矣。未經劬勞之女乎、爾可引吭而歡呼矣。無夫者之兒女、將多於有夫之婦者矣。』兄弟乎、吾人恰同伊灑格、乃應恩諾而生者也。夫血氣之兒女、必仇視聖神之兒女、古今一體。雖然、經不云乎：『婢女及其所生、必須驅而出之；蓋婢女之子、斷無與主婦之子同承嗣業之理也。』兄弟其識之、吾人非婢女之子、乃主婦之子也。

凡遵循天主聖神之導引者、即為天主之兒女。

世之豐席厚履者固當飲水而思源兮。困苦瀕死者亦應俯伏而投誠。勗哉吾魂。為主而生。
