《靈命日糧》 2013年 07月 9日 - Dennis Fisher 太空音樂 讀經: 約伯記38章1-7節 地的角石是誰安放的？那時，晨星一同歌唱，神的眾子也都歡呼。 —約伯記38章6-7節 全年讀經: 約伯記38-40章 使徒行傳16章1-21節 美國太空總署（NASA）的一個天文觀測臺發現了一個會哼曲子的大黑洞。座落於離地球2.5億光年的銀河系英仙座星系團，有個黑洞以降B大調的頻率在震動。由於它的音高太低，無法被人耳所偵測。科學儀器將這個音符定位在比鋼琴中央C低57個八度的位置。 其實有關音樂與星體的議題並不是件新鮮事。事實上，當神向約伯顯現時，祂問：「我立大地根基的時候，你在哪裡呢？……那時，晨星一同歌唱，神的眾子也都歡呼」（約伯記38章4、7節）。我們知道創造壯麗的宇宙萬物時，讚美的詩歌和喜樂的歡呼一齊傳揚神的榮耀。 亞西西的聖方濟寫了一首美妙的詩歌，捕捉了當我們舉目觀看明亮照耀的日光和繁星遍佈的夜空時，會感受的敬畏和讚美： 「諸天述說神的榮耀；穹蒼傳揚祂的手段。」（詩篇19篇1節） 我們當頌讚神，祂的創造如此美好，讓我們享受其中！ 真神所造萬象生靈， 齊來歌唱讚美同聲，哈利路亞！哈利路亞！ 金光燦爛火熱太陽， 清輝皎潔溫柔月亮， 讚美真神，讚美真神， 哈利路亞！哈利路亞！哈利路亞！ 看自然萬物何其美，豈能不讚美造物主？ Our Daily Bread July 9, 2013 — by Dennis Fisher Space Music Radio is hosted by Les Lamborn Read: Job 38:1-7 Who laid [earth’s] cornerstone, when the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? —Job 38:6-7 Bible in a Year: Job 38-40; Acts 16:1-21 One of NASA’s observatories has discovered a giant black hole that hums. Located in the Perseus cluster of galaxies about 250 million light years from Earth, the black hole vibrates at the frequency of a B flat. But it is too low a pitch to be picked up by the human ear. Scientific instruments have placed the note at 57 octaves below middle C on a piano. The idea of music and heavenly bodies is not new. In fact, when God revealed Himself to Job, He asked: “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? . . . When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” (Job 38:4,7). We are told that at the creation of our marvelous universe, songs of praise and shouts of joy resounded to God’s glory. A wonderful hymn by St. Francis of Assisi captures the awe and worship we feel when beholding the radiant sun by day or the star-studded sky at night. All creatures of our God and King, Lift up your voice and with us sing Alleluia, Alleluia! Thou burning sun with golden beam, Thou silver moon with softer gleam: O praise Him, O praise Him! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork” (Ps. 19:1). Let’s praise the One who made such beauty for us to enjoy! Hymn by St. Francis of Assisi, translated by William H. Draper. © 1968 Singspiration The beauty of creation gives us reasons to sing God’s praise.
