▶ 이적, 기적 Miracles. - 구약성경에서

No sincere believer in the inspiration of scripture can have a doubt as to real miracles having been wrought by the power of God both in O.T. and N.T. times. It is philosophy so-called, or scepticism, that mystifies the subject. Much is said about 'the laws of nature;' and it is confidently affirmed that these are irrevocable and cannot be departed from. To which is added that laws of nature previously unknown are frequently being discovered, and if our forefathers could witness the application of some of the more recent discoveries, as the computer, mobile telephone, etc., they would judge that miracles were being performed. So, it is argued, the actions recorded in scripture as miracles, were merely the bringing into use some law of nature which had been hidden up to that time. 

All this is based upon a fallacy. There are no laws of nature, as if nature made its own laws: there are laws in nature, which God in His wisdom as Creator was pleased to make; but He who made those laws has surely the same power to suspend them when He pleases. Though laws in nature hitherto unknown are being discovered from time to time, they in no way account for such things as dead persons being raised to life, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, the lame walking, and demons being cast out of those who were possessed by them. Neither has natural philosophy discovered any law that will account for such a thing as an iron axe-head swimming in water. The simple truth is that God, for wise purposes, allowed some of the natural laws to be suspended, and at times He put forth His almighty power, as in supplying the Israelites with manna from heaven, and in feeding thousands from a few loaves and fishes, or by recalling life that had left the body.

The words translated 'miracle' in the O.T. are 

1.  oth, 'a sign,' as it is often translated, and in some places 'token.' Num. 14:22; Deut. 11:3. 

(민14:22; 나의 영광과 애굽과 광야에서 행한 나의 이적을 보고도 이같이 열번이나 나를 시험하고 내 목소리를 청종치 아니한 그 사람들은

(신11:3. 애굽에서 그 왕 바로와 그 전국에 행하신 이적과 기사와


2.  mopheth, 'a wonder,' as it is mostly translated: it is something out of the ordinary course of events. Ex. 7:9; Deut. 29:3. 

(출07:9; 바로가 너희에게 이르기를 너희는 이적을 보이라 하거든 너는 아론에게 명하기를 너의 지팡이를 가져 바로 앞에 던지라 하라 그것이 뱀이 되리라

(신29:3. 곧 그 큰 시험과 이적과 큰 기사를 네가 목도하였느니라


3.  pala, 'wonderful, marvellous.' Judges 6:13.

(삿06:13 기드온이 그에게 대답하되 나의 주여 여호와께서 우리와 함께 계시면 어찌하여 이 모든 일이 우리에게 미쳤나이까 또 우리 열조가 일찍 우리에게 이르기를 여호와께서 우리를 애굽에서 나오게 하신 것이 아니냐 한 그 모든 이적이 어디 있나이까 이제 여호와께서 우리를 버리사 미디안의 손에 붙이셨나이다


Moses was enabled to work miracles for two distinct objects. One was in order to convince the children of Israel that God had sent him. God gave him three signs to perform before them: his rod became a serpent, and was again a rod; his hand became leprous, and was then restored; and he could turn the water of the Nile into blood. Ex. 4:1-9.

(출04:1-9. 하나님이 모세에게 능력을 주시다

The other miracles, wrought by him in Egypt, were to show to Pharaoh the mighty power of God, who said, I will "multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt . . . . and the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt." Ex. 7:3-5. The ten plagues followed, which were miracles or signs of the power of God — signs not only to the Egyptians, but also to the Israelites, as is shown by the reference to them afterwards. Num. 14:22; Judges 6:13.

(출07:3-5. 내가 바로의 마음을 강퍅케 하고 나의 표징과 나의 이적을 애굽 땅에 많이 행하리라마는  바로가 너희를 듣지 아니할 터인즉 내가 내 손을 애굽에 더하여 여러 큰 재앙을 내리고 내 군대, 내 백성 이스라엘 자손을 그 땅에서 인도하여 낼찌라 내가 내 손을 애굽 위에 펴서 이스라엘 자손을 그 땅에서 인도하여 낼 때에야 애굽 사람이 나를 여호와인줄 알리라 하시매

(민14:22; 나의 영광과 애굽과 광야에서 행한 나의 이적을 보고도 이같이 열번이나 나를 시험하고 내 목소리를 청종치 아니한 그 사람들은
 
By the following list it will be seen that there were many other miracles wrought in O.T. times — by Moses in the wilderness; by the prophets in the land; and some through the direct agency of God from heaven, as the deliverance of the three from the fiery furnace, Daniel from the lions, etc. All the miracles were indeed the acts of God, His servants being merely the means through which they were carried out.
