The Tree of Jesse 耶西树

Do you know your mom’s name? Silly question, right? Most of us know who our mom is. Canyou name one of your grandparents, or even a great-grandparent? All of those people are part of your family “tree.”
你知道你妈妈的名字吗?真是个愚蠢的问题,对吗?绝大多数的人都知道自己的妈妈是谁。你能说出你的一位祖父母,甚至是曾祖父母的名字吗?这些人都是你的家族“树”(家谱)的一部分。
Now, do you know who Jesus’ mom was? That’s right. It was Mary.
那么,你知道耶稣的妈妈是谁吗?没错,是玛丽亚。
Weknowaboutotherpeoplein Jesus’ familytreetoo. Oneofthebiggestnamesis King David. King David was one of Jesus’ great-great-great . . . grandpas, and David’s father, Jesse, was a great-great-great-great . . . grandpa. (It’s really too many “greats” to count!)
在耶稣的家族树上我们还能看到另一些人。其中最有名的一个就是大卫王。大卫王是耶稣的曾曾曾……祖父。而大卫王的爸爸,耶西,是耶稣的曾曾曾曾 祖父。(真是有好多个”曾“字要数
呀!)
Because Jesus came from the family of Jesse, we sometimes call his family tree the “Jesse tree.”
There are so many people in the Jesse tree! Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Ruth and Rahab. We can go all the way back to Great-Great-Great Grandpa Noah! And even further back—to
Adam and Eve!
因为耶稣来自耶西的家族,我们有时候会把他的家族树叫做“耶西树。”
耶西树上有好多人啊!亚伯拉罕,以撒和雅各。路得和喇合。顺着这些名字我们能一直追溯到曾曾 曾 祖父诺亚!甚至更远——追溯到亚当和夏娃!
And many other people in the Bible had important jobs to do to keep God’s family safe until
Jesus could be born—people like Joseph and Moses and Nehemiah.
圣经里还有很多的人——比如约瑟,摩西和尼西米——也要做一些重要的工作来确保上帝家族的安全,直 到耶稣诞生。
That’s a lot of names, isn’t it? The Bible tells us their stories, and we’re going to learn all about them as we prepare for Jesus’ birth at Christmas!
名字可真多,不是吗?圣经告诉了我们这些人的故事,在我们预备耶稣降生的圣诞节之时,我们也要学习这些故事。
We’vealsogivenyoua Christmasornamenttogowitheachstory. Youcanputthose ornaments on your “Jesse tree”—either your normal Christmas tree or another kind of branch or tree. We hope the pictures on the ornaments will remind you of all these special people of God.
在每个故事里,我们还为你配备了一个圣诞节装饰。你可以把它们放到你的“耶西树”上——挂到一般 的圣诞树或是其他类型的树枝上也可以。我们希望这些装饰物上的图片能让你想起上帝的特殊人选。

What’s the Jesse tree?
It’s all the people in Jesus’ family.
什么是耶西树?
所有在耶稣家族里的人就是耶西树。

As I hang the STUMP on the JESSE TREE, Here is an Advent promise for me:

当我把这个树桩挂到耶西树上时,
这里有一个将临期的应许给我:
The Bible tells us about many of Jesus’ grandmas and grandpas—including Jesse.
Through all these people, God kept his promise to send the Savior.

圣经告诉了我们很多关于耶稣的祖父和祖母的事——包括耶西。 上帝通过这些人实现了他的应许,差派了救主。
