Jud 13:1.
简体中文
Englisches Original
Jud 13:1.
ISRAEL SERVES THE PHILISTINES FORTY YEARS.
1. the Lord delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years--The Israelites were represented
(Jud 10:6, 7)
as having fallen universally into a state of gross and confirmed idolatry, and in chastisement of this great apostasy, the Lord raised up enemies that harassed them in various quarters, especially the Ammonites and Philistines. The invasions and defeat of the former were narrated in the two chapters immediately preceding this; and now the sacred historian proceeds to describe the inroads of the latter people. The period of Philistine ascendency comprised forty years, reckoning from the time of Elon till the death of Samson.

一位天使向玛挪亚的妻子显现。

3. 耶和华的使者——即立约的使者,是那位曾多次以类似方式显现、已在前文述及的神圣人物。
Englisches Original
3. the angel of the Lord--The messenger of the covenant, the divine personage who made so many remarkable appearances of a similar kind already described.

5. 你必怀孕生子——这预言中的孩子将要作拿细耳人。因此,为着她所应许之子,母亲也须谨守拿细耳人律法所要求的严格禁戒(参见
民6:2的注释)。
他必起首拯救以色列人脱离非利士人的手——对一个爱国者而言,这是令人鼓舞的预言;但其中的措辞表明,拯救的时候仍将遥远。
Englisches Original
5. thou shalt conceive, and bear a son--This predicted child was to be a Nazarite. The mother was, therefore, for the sake of her promised offspring, required to practice the rigid abstinence of the Nazarite law (see on
Nu 6:2).
he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines--a prophecy encouraging to a patriotic man; the terms of it, however, indicated that the period of deliverance was still to be distant.

6-8. 玛挪亚就祈求耶和华——丈夫从妻子口中得知了那可喜的宣告,便以此为题恳切地向神祷告。这是一个值得注意的事例,显明神在祷告与祂应许的成就之间所设立的关系。
Englisches Original
6-8. then Manoah entreated the Lord--On being informed by his wife of the welcome intimation, the husband made it the subject of earnest prayer to God. This is a remarkable instance, indicative of the connection which God has established between prayer and the fulfilment of His promises.

Jud 13:11-14.
简体中文
Jud 13:11-14.
天使向玛挪亚显现。
11. 你就是那对妇人说话的人么?——玛挪亚如此迫切盼望天使再次来访,并非出于任何疑惑或忧虑,而是活泼信心和他切望遵行所得指示的果子。那没有看见就信的,是有福的。
Englisches Original
Jud 13:11-14.
THE ANGEL APPEARS TO MANOAH.
11. Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman?--Manoah's intense desire for the repetition of the angel's visit was prompted not by doubts or anxieties of any kind, but was the fruit of lively faith, and of his great anxiety to follow out the instructions given. Blessed was he who had not seen, yet had believed.

Jud 13:15-23.
简体中文
Jud 13:15-23.
玛挪亚献祭。
15. 玛挪亚对天使说……求你容我们款留你,等我们预备一只山羊羔——这位陌生人婉拒了所拟的款待,并暗示:这肉若要献为祭物,必须献给耶和华
[士13:6]。
玛挪亚正需要这指教,因他本意是要将预备好的肉献给对方,不是当作耶和华,而是当作他所想象的那位——甚至连使者也不是
(士13:16),
只是一位先知或纯粹的人间信使。正因如此,他才这样对玛挪亚说话,而非拒绝属神的尊荣。使者的话与我们主的话十分相似
(太19:17)。
Englisches Original
Jud 13:15-23.
MANOAH'S SACRIFICE.
15. Manoah said unto the angel . . ., I pray thee, let us detain thee, until we shall have made ready a kid--The stranger declined the intended hospitality and intimated that if the meat were to be an offering, it must be presented to the Lord
[Jud 13:6].
Manoah needed this instruction, for his purpose was to offer the prepared viands to him, not as the Lord, but as what he imagined him to be, not even an angel
(Jud 13:16),
but a prophet or merely human messenger. It was on this account, and not as rejecting divine honors, that he spoke in this manner to Manoah. The angel's language was exactly similar to that of our Lord
(Mt 19:17).

17-20. 玛挪亚对天使说……你名叫什么?——玛挪亚的请求引出了这位超然访客神性的最有力证据——他的名「奇妙」(旁注作「奇妙的策士」),以及表明祭物蒙悦纳的奇妙的火焰。
Englisches Original
17-20. Manoah said unto the angel . . ., What is thy name?--Manoah's request elicited the most unequivocal proofs of the divinity of his supernatural visitor--in his name "secret" (in the Margin, "wonderful"), and in the miraculous flame that betokened the acceptance of the sacrifice.
24
Jud 13:24, 25.
简体中文
Jud 13:24、25。
参孙出生。
24. 妇人生了一个儿子,给他起名叫参孙——这应许之子一出生,加上他所要成就的国家大事的传闻,从起初就必使他成为众人特别关注与悉心教导的对象。
Englisches Original
Jud 13:24, 25.
SAMSON BORN.
24. the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson--The birth of this child of promise, and the report of the important national services he was to render, must, from the first, have made him an object of peculiar interest and careful instruction.

25. 耶和华的灵才感动他——大概不是像感动奉默示信息的先知那样,而是在他年少的心中点燃高尚而奉献的爱国之灵。
玛哈尼但——「但的营」。它与琐拉一样,位于犹大与但的边界上。
在琐拉和以实陶之间——这二城位于犹大与但的交界。
Englisches Original
25. the Spirit of the Lord began to move him at times--not, probably, as it moved the prophets, who were charged with an inspired message, but kindling in his youthful bosom a spirit of high and devoted patriotism.
Eshtaol--the free city. It, as well as Zorah, stood on the border between Judah and Dan.
Jud 13:1.
以色列人服事非利士人四十年。
1. 耶和华将他们交在非利士人手里四十年——圣经曾记载
(士10:6、7)
以色列人普遍陷入严重且根深蒂固的偶像崇拜之中;为惩罚这大背道,耶和华兴起仇敌从各处侵扰他们,尤其是亚扪人和非利士人。前者的入侵与溃败已在前两章叙述;如今圣史者转而描述后者的入侵。非利士人称霸的时期共四十年,从以伦时期算起直到参孙离世。
