| 山上宝训讲解：圣徒的幸福。出自马太福音第五章中基督的山上宝训
“Exposition of the Beatitudes” is a thought-provoking and timely book that challenges common misconceptions about happiness. | “山上宝训讲解”是一本发人深省、与时俱进的书，挑战了人们对幸福的常见误解。
Jeremiah Burroughs, with deep theological insight, exposes the fallacies of seeking fulfillment in sensual pleasures, honors, riches, virtues, knowledge, and even the contemplation of divine things. | 耶利米·伯勒斯以深刻的神学洞见，揭示了在感官享乐、荣誉、财富、美德、知识，甚至是神圣事物的沉思中寻求满足的谬误。
Instead, he directs readers to the teachings of Jesus Christ, explaining how the Beatitudes hold the key to true blessedness. | 相反，他引导读者走向耶稣基督的教导，解释了八福如何成为通往真正幸福的钥匙。
Burroughs argues that while perfect happiness may be unattainable in this sinful world, there exists a genuine blessedness in qualities, actions, and sufferings that point towards the ultimate fulfillment in Christ. | 伯勒斯认为，尽管在这个罪恶的世界中完美的幸福可能无法企及，但在那些指向基督中终极满足的品质、行为和苦难中，存在着真正的福分。
In a world filled with uncertainty and impending loss, Burroughs highlights the precarious nature of worldly comforts and the need to find true blessedness in the Christian Beatitudes. | 在一个充满不确定性和即将到来的失落的世界里，伯勒斯强调了世俗安慰的不稳定本质，以及在基督教八福中寻找真正幸福的必要性。
He warns readers of the illusory nature of worldly happiness and invites them to embrace the blessedness defined by Jesus himself. | 他警告读者世俗幸福的虚幻本质，邀请他们接受耶稣自己定义的福分。
By aligning one’s life with the teachings of Christ, regardless of the challenges and changes of the times, Burroughs assures readers of a blessed end and a meaningful existence. | 伯勒斯向读者保证，无论时代如何变迁和挑战，只要使自己的生命与基督的教导保持一致，就能得到有福的结局和有意义的存在。
These sermons, meticulously preserved and unpublished for thirteen years following the author’s death, carry the spirit of Jeremiah Burroughs within them. | 这些讲道在作者去世后的十三年里得到精心保存，未经发表，其中蕴含着耶利米·伯勒斯的精神。
The publishers aim to bring these sermons to light to guide readers towards true blessedness, even in the midst of unhappy times. | 出版商旨在将这些讲道公诸于世，以引导读者在不幸的时期中走向真正的幸福。
They urge readers to align their thoughts, affections, and actions with this profound understanding of happiness and find solace in a blessed life that transcends worldly circumstances. | 他们敦促读者使自己的思想、情感和行动与这种对幸福的深刻理解保持一致，在超越世俗境遇的有福生命中找到慰藉。
