本文從「命」的視角，重新審視《金瓶梅》的尊生意識，以見《金瓶梅》於世情書寫之外，對於安身立命之道的深度關注。全文主要分為三個層面進行分析：首先，考察《金瓶梅》寫定者在與時偕行的時間視角下，如何通過重寫素材來表達對於個體生命存續的關注，進而針對人與天命的關係進行深度思考；其次，從天人之辨的角度，分析《金瓶梅》一書所體現的知命意識，以及對於理想人生型態的建構，進而彰顯小說敘述背後的尊生思考；再次，從立命選擇的角度，闡論《金瓶梅》一書如何通過吳月娘善終結局的設計，表達對於存心養性的修身之道的思想籲求。本文期能通過上述三個層面的考察，從不同於世情書的問題向度，深入解讀《金瓶梅》的尊生意識及其創作思想表現。

This paper interprets Jin Ping Mei from the perspective of fate focusing on its narrations of time and fate. First, I will emphasize how the author of Jin Ping Mei used the idea of time to express his concern about fate and further expressed his idea of the relationship between humans and fate. Second, on deliberation of heaven and human, I will try to express the knowing-fate zhiming consciousness and human ideals that the book shows. Third, I will interpret the book from a self-cultivation perspective. By the above three different perspectives, I hope to bring new light to criticism of Jin Ping Mei.
