이사야 60.15-16 Ad Deum

2. 내 삶에 적용 오늘 본문은 시온의 깊은 상처와 결핍을 완전히 엎으시는(up-side down)야웨 하나님의 ‘통쾌한 역전극’의 절정이다.[1] 오늘 본문은 14절의 미래에 있을 구원에 대한 역접으로 시작한다. “반면에” תַּחַת이것을 통해 미래에 올 구원과 현재의 비참한 상황을 극적으로 대조 시킨다.현재의 시온은 하나님으로부터, 다른 나라로부터, 또 남유다 백성으로부터버림과, 거절을 당했고, 황폐한 땅이었기에 그 누구도 시온을 찾지 않아고립된 상태다(15절).하지만 이렇게 비참하고 황폐하고 소망 없는 현재를 향해하나님의 ‘완전한 역전’[2] 선언이 울려 퍼진다. “내가 시온을 온 세상의 영원한 자랑과 기쁨으로 만들겠다(שׂים)” 그리고 시온에 대한 구원을 2마디로 요약한다. 1) 시온을 괴롭히고 압제하고 황폐하게 만든 이방 나라와 왕들이이제는 시온을 보살피고 양육하고 돌보게 될 것이며. 2) 이를 통해 시온은 비로소 깨닫게 된다. 야웨 하나님이 ‘나’의 구원자다. ‘나’의 고엘이다. 야곱의 전능자시다라는 사실을. 시온의 머릿속에 흩어져 있던 조각들이 하나로 맞춰지는 순간이다.과거 야곱에게 ‘이스라엘’이라는 새로운 이름을 준 하나님이,이스라엘 백성을 포로지에서 구원해준 하나님이,이스라엘 백성을 괴롭힌 자에게 보응하시는 ‘친족, 고엘’이신 분이바로 지금나(시온)를 역전시켜 주시는 그 ‘야웨’ 하나님이라는 사실을 깊이 깨닫게 된다.  이 모든 역전은 시온을 위한 것이 아니다. 하나님의 언약적 신실함(고엘, 헤세드)에서 비롯된 것[3]이며이 사건을 통해서 야웨 하나님‘만’이 참 하나님이며참 구원자요, 참 공급자임을 온 세상에 나타내기 위함이다.[4] 그리고 지금까지 있었던 구원 사건을 이끌어오신 하나님이 바로‘야웨’이심을 우리로 하여금 알게 하기 위함이다(16절). 모든 조각을 맞추시는 하나님을 경험하기 위한 나의 삶과 태도는 어때야 하는가? How? 1) 자괴감, 좌절감에 머무르지 않기  1)-1 오늘 하나님은 상처받은 여러분을 하나님의 ‘자랑’으로 부르신다. 2) 나의 괴로운 상황을 역전시키는 하나님을 기대하자.  2)-1 하나님은 신실하시며(헤세드), 나의 친족(고엘)이심을 기억하고 붙잡자. 3) 구원 사건 그 이면에 숨겨진 ‘진짜 목적’을 기억하기 (Ad Deum) 3)-1 모든 구원사건의 진짜 목적은 하나님을 높이기 위함이며     하나님을 더 잘 알게 되어 하나님과의 관계가 돈독해지기 위함이다. [참고문헌] 주석베스터만, 클라우스. 『이사야 (Ⅲ)』 번역실 역. 국제성서주석 (서울: 한국신학연구소, 1999).안소근. 『이사야서 40-66장』 거룩한 독서를 위한 구약성경 주해 29-2 (서울: 바오로딸, 2017).Berges, Ulrich. Jesaja 55-66. Herders Theologischer Kommentar Zum Alten Testament Freiburg, Basel, Wien: Herder, 2022.Brueggemann, W. Isaiah 40-66. Westminster Bible Companion Louisville, KY: Westminster John Knox Press, 1998.Fohrer, G. Jesaja 40-66. Zürcher Bibelkommentare Alten Testament 19.3; 2 ed.
