Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.88,0:01:08.03,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}吉姆既是学者又是老师，能认识他并到目前为止一\N直受教于他真是令人愉快，我非常期待他的演讲。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Jim is a scholar and a teacher, and it is really delightful to have gotten to know him and to have been taught by him so far up to this point, and I'm really looking forward to his presentation.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.71,0:01:28.85,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}他骑着一匹白色野马，在天使之城的海边骑行。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Riding a white bronco, he rode near the sea in a shining city of angels.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:30.30,0:01:39.96,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}跟随他的是一大群人，骑着野马和托盘，闪烁着黑白红蓝的光芒。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Following him was a great multitude, riding mustangs and pallets, flashing black and white, red and blue.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.13,0:01:55.19,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}我在说什么？\N{\an2\fs10\i1}What am I talking about?

Dialogue: 0,0:02:00.45,0:02:10.19,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}如果你在2000年后听到这段话，你会知道这是关于OJ辛普森审判和那场低速追逐吗？\N{\an2\fs10\i1}If you heard that 2,000 years from now, would you know that was about the OJ Simpson trial and that same low speed chase?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.19,0:02:15.88,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}不，你可能不会知道。这就是重点所在。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}No, you probably wouldn't. And that's a point.

Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.71,0:02:33.12,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}那些了解我的人都知道，我说这话是认真的，因为我今天戴了领带，而我几乎从不这样做。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And those of you who know me know that I'm serious when I say it because I put on a tie today and I almost never do that.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.16,0:02:38.08,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}所以，能成为今天活动的一部分是我的荣幸。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And so this is my honor to be a part of this day.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.30,0:02:42.47,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}今天上午我要做三件事。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}I'm here to do three things this morning.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.47,0:02:51.79,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}首先，我要为你们把启示录放在其历史背景中。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}First, I'm going to put the book of Revelation in its historical context for you.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.79,0:03:04.02,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}然后，我要澄清一些关于启示录真正内容的误解。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Then I'm going to dispel some of the myths about what the book of Revelation is really about.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.51,0:03:15.03,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}最后，我想指出启示录的核心信息，以及为什么它在今天仍然具有相关性。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And then finally, I want to point out the core message of Revelation and why it's still relevant today.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.51,0:03:19.22,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}那么，让我们从启示录的历史背景开始。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}So let's start with the historical context for the book of Revelation.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.62,0:03:28.91,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}现在，对于任何圣经文本的作者和日期都存在一些\N学术争议，你可以在任何注释书中查阅这些内容。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Now, there is some scholarly debate over the authorship and date of any biblical text,  And you can look those things up in any commentary.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.25,0:03:39.05,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}但作为一个教会历史学家，我确信这份文献实际上是使徒约翰在拔摩岛上所写的。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}But speaking as a Church historian, I'm convinced that this document was, in fact, written by John the Apostle on the Isle of Pass.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.23,0:03:44.89,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}它是在短暂迫害教会的多米田皇帝统治期间写成的。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}It was written during the reign of the Emperor Domitian, who briefly persecuted the Church.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.89,0:04:01.32,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}由于这次迫害时间很短，我们可以将启示录的写作时间确定为公元95年\N。事实上，它确实是新约中少数几本我们能如此精确确定日期的书之一。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And because this persecution was brief, we can date the Book of Revelation to the year 95 CE.  And, in fact, it really is one of the few books in the New Testament that we can date that precisely.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.58,0:04:18.91,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}事实上，如果你在公元95年生活在帝国东部，如果你口袋里有一枚\N硬币，他们口袋里没有硬币，好吧，所以你口袋里有一枚硬币，你从\N口袋里拿出那枚硬币，你拿出那枚硬币看了看，你会看到谁的肖像？\N{\an2\fs10\i1}In fact, if you lived in the eastern part of the Empire, in 95 CE, and if you had a coin in your pocket, they didn't have a coin in their pocket, okay, so you had a coin in your pocket, you took that coin out of your pocket, you took that coin out and you looked at it, whose image would you see on it?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:18.91,0:04:21.33,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}当然是皇帝多米田。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Well, of course, the Emperor, Domitian.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:22.08,0:04:28.94,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}在肖像周围，你可以读到多米田皇帝的名字和帝国头衔。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And around the image you could read the names and imperial titles of the emperor Domitian.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.00,0:04:34.72,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这些会用希腊字母写着，而且会被缩写，因为硬币很小，无法容纳所有内容。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}They would be there in Greek characters, and they'd be abbreviated because the coins were small and you can't fit all that in a coin.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:35.06,0:04:50.93,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}但如果你把那些缩写中多米田名字和头衔的希腊字母转换成数字，这是任\N何人都能做到的，然后把它们全加起来，有人想猜猜加起来是多少吗？\N{\an2\fs10\i1}But if you took those Greek letters in those abbreviations for Domitian's name and title, and if you converted the Greek letters into numbers, which anyone could have done, and if you added them all up, anyone would want to guess what it would add up to?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.40,0:04:54.00,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}没错，是666。真是令人惊讶。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}That's correct, 666. What a surprise.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:54.00,0:05:10.90,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}所以，当你在启示录中读到一个与人名相对应的数字时，它指的\N就是那个人本身，当时的皇帝，而不是对未来某个人的预言。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}So, when you read in the book of Revelation about a number that corresponds to a man's name,  It was the man himself, the emperor at the time, not some prediction of future man.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.90,0:05:22.93,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}当然，你可能已经读过关于666的各种不同理论，我看过从罗纳德\N·里根到阿道夫·希特勒以及其间的所有人，但这些都是被忽略的。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Of course, you've probably read all the different theories about the 566, and I've seen everything from Ronald Reagan to Adolf Hitler and everybody in between, but it's really omitted.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:22.93,0:05:32.74,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}事实是，如果你足够努力，你几乎可以让任何名字等于66\N6。你几乎可以让任何人符合，这取决于你的计算方法。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}The truth is, if you work hard enough, you can make almost any name at 566. You can make almost anybody fit, depending on who your engine is.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:34.80,0:05:37.82,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}它指的是当时的皇帝多米田。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}It was the emperor at the time, Domitian.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:38.20,0:05:46.96,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}多米田在某种程度上是帝国宣称神圣头衔的中心。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And Domitian was in some way sort of the seat of the imperial claims to divine titles.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:46.96,0:05:55.51,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}因为在罗马帝国，一个被认为是伟人的人死后，元老院会宣布他为神。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Because in the Roman Empire, after a great man, someone who was considered a great man, after he died, the Senate would proclaim him a god.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:56.56,0:06:06.96,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}如果你是继承人，如果你是上一任皇帝的养子，而他\N现在在神的国度里，那么这是否使你成为神的儿子？\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And if you're the successor, if you're the son by adoption of the last emperor, who is now in the kingdom of God, does that make you a son of a God?
Dialogue: 0,0:06:07.35,0:06:20.24,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}所以，当我们在新约中读到耶稣是神的儿子时，公教会神学认\N为，这意味着，除其他外，是耶稣而不是那个垂死的罗马。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And so, when we read in the New Testament that Jesus is the Son of God, Catholic theology,  It means, among other things, Jesus and not that dying Rome.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:20.38,0:06:30.30,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}当我们读到神的国度时，这很容易被翻译为神的\N帝国，它意味着神，而不是那个垂死的罗马。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And when we read about the Kingdom of God, which could easily be translated the Empire of God, it means God and not that dying Rome.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:30.96,0:06:48.92,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}当多马遇见复活的基督并说「我的主，我的神」时，用拉丁语说「Domus et De\Nus」，这正是皇帝多米田要求每个人称呼他的头衔，「Domus Aetatus」。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And when Thomas met the risen Christ and says, My Lord and my God, in Latin, Domus et Deus,  That's exactly the title that the Emperor Domitius demanded everyone call him, Domus Aetatus.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:49.72,0:06:55.77,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}因此，启示录是在教会受迫害的背景下写成的。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}So, the book of Revelation was written in the context of a persecuted church.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:56.03,0:07:08.88,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}罗马皇帝对基督教的迫害可以追溯到公元64年，当时\N尼禄皇帝在寻找替罪羊，需要有人为罗马的大火负责。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Now, the persecution of Christianity by the Roman Emperor, going back to the year 64 CE, when the Emperor Nero, looking for a scapegoat,  Needed someone to blame for the fire in Rome.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:08.88,0:07:10.08,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}那是城市里的一场大火。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}It was a big fire in the city.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:10.08,0:07:12.78,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}罗马的一大片区域被夷为平地。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Rome leveled a major chunk of the city.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:12.78,0:07:13.68,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}它已经到过罗马。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}It's been to Rome.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:13.68,0:07:15.96,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}现在它是斗兽场的一部分。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}It's a part of the Colosseum now.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:15.96,0:07:23.34,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}谣言开始流传，说是尼禄自己放的火。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And the rumors started that Nero himself had set the fire.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:23.50,0:07:33.61,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}我是说，不管是巧合还是什么，他原本计划在死后建造\N一座新宫殿，而这座宫殿正好要建在被火烧平的地方。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}I mean, coincidentally or not, he had planned on his death to build a new palace, which was going to go right in the spot that was leveled by the fire.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:34.01,0:07:39.23,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}所以，你可以想象人们是如何开始谈论他放火清理土地的。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}So, you can imagine how people started to talk that he had set the fire to clear the land.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:39.31,0:07:51.54,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}他需要找人背黑锅，所以他选择了他眼中新兴的、可疑的、可能危险的教派——基督教。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}He needed someone else to blame, and so he chose what he saw as a new and suspect and suspicious and possibly dangerous sect called Christianity.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:51.54,0:07:54.02,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}当时甚至还没有被称为基督教。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}It wasn't even called Christianity yet.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:54.02,0:07:55.24,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}它就是这么新。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}That's how new it was.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:57.29,0:08:08.49,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}但这开创了一个先例，以至于到了95年，罗马帝国已经有足够的先例\N，像约翰这样的基督教领袖仅仅因为传播犹太人的信仰就可能被逮捕。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}But that set a precedent so that by the year 95, there's enough precedent in the Roman Empire that a Christian leader like John could be arrested simply for spreading the Jews.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:08.49,0:08:15.36,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}他可能被流放到现在被称为拔摩岛的一个海岛监狱。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And he could be exiled to an island prison off the coast of what is now a church called Patmos.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:15.100,0:08:21.06,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这里的要点是，这份文献是受迫害教会的产物。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}The point here is that this document is the product of a persecuted church.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:21.47,0:08:28.25,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}约翰扮演着一种主教的角色，给他所管辖的地区写信。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And John functions as a kind of bishop, writing a letter to his districtal areas.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:29.21,0:08:35.39,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}他写这封信的主要原因是告诉他们不要放弃信仰。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And his primary reason for writing this letter is to tell them not to give up the faith.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:36.01,0:08:41.60,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}不要屈服于迫害而否认信仰，即使是为了保全自己的生命。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Don't give in to the persecution and deny the faith, even to save your own life.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:42.60,0:08:54.45,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}因此，启示录基本上是对耶稣在福音书中自己的话的延伸讲道，「忍耐到底的必然得救」。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}And so, the book of Revelation is basically an extended sermon on Jesus' own word in the Gospel,  Whoever endures to the end will be saved.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:54.99,0:08:56.70,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这是马太福音中的话。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}That's Matthew.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:56.70,0:09:01.82,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}耶稣在第10章和第24章中说过这话。忍耐到底的必然得救。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Jesus said that in chapter 10 and chapter 24. Whoever endures to the end will be saved.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:01.82,0:09:12.55,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这里有双重含义，因为在一个层面上，它意味着忍耐到迫害结\N束的人，但在另一个层面上，它意味着忍耐到生命终结的人。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Now, there's a double meaning there, because on one level it means whoever endures to the end of the persecution, but another level means whoever endures to the end of their life.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:13.50,0:09:28.93,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}现在，我并不是说启示录不是使徒约翰所经历的灵魂超\N拔异象的产物，我完全愿意相信约翰确实有过异象。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Now, I'm not saying that the book of Revelation is not the product of an ecstatic vision that John the Apostle had, perfectly willing to believe that John really did have a vision.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:36.70,0:09:59.00,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}但无论启示录的文本和其中的象征是一个经历过确切异象的人\N试图描述不可描述之事的产物，还是对旧约中符号的精心重新\N利用和再使用，或是两者的某种结合，最终结果都是一样的。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}But whether the text of Revelation and the symbolism in the book of Revelation is the product of a person who's had an exact vision, trying to describe the indescribable, or whether it's simply a carefully crafted recycling and reusing of symbols from the Old Testament, or some combination of the two, the end result is the same.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:59.26,0:10:06.11,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这些符号对约翰和他的受众来说都很熟悉，他的受众会知道如何解释它们。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}The symbols are familiar to John and to his audience, and his audience wouldn't know how to interpret them.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:07.11,0:10:15.24,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}现在，仅仅因为这些符号来自旧约，并不意味着\N它们在启示录中的含义与在旧约中的含义相同。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}Now, just because the symbols come from the Old Testament does not mean that they mean the same thing in the book of Revelation that they do in the Old Testament.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:15.24,0:10:26.55,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这些符号主要来自以西结书、但以理书和撒迦利亚\N书，但为了解释启示录，并不需要先解释这些书。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}These symbols come from the books of Ezekiel, Daniel, and Zechariah primarily, and it is not necessary to first interpret those books in order to interpret Revelation.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:26.55,0:10:32.35,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}这些符号和图像来自旧约，但它们以不同的方式被使用，意味着不同的事物。\N{\an2\fs10\i1}The symbols, the images, come from the Old Testament, but they're used in a different way, and they mean something different.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:32.63,0:10:40.18,Default,,0,0,0,,{\an2\b1}一个明显的例子是，当你在启示录中读到巴比伦时\N，你实际上并不是在读关于巴比伦的内容，对吧？\N{\an2\fs10\i1}The obvious example of this is that when you read about Babylon in the book of Revelation, you're not really reading about Babylon, are you?
