Ge 26:1-35.
SOJOURN IN GERAR.
1. And there was a famine in the land . . . And Isaac went unto . . . Gerar--The pressure of famine in Canaan forced Isaac with his family and flocks to migrate into the land of the Philistines, where he was exposed to personal danger, as his father had been on account of his wife's beauty; but through the seasonable interposition of Providence, he was preserved
(Ps 105:14, 15).

12. 以撒在那地耕种——他在那地寄居时,租种了一块地;因神赐福给他的技艺和勤劳,那地出产极丰
(Isa 65:13; Ps 37:19);
因着丰厚的收获,他在财富和势力上迅速增加,非利士人惧怕或嫉妒他的兴旺,便迫他离开
(Pr 27:4; Ec 4:4)。
这可从今日许多叙利亚牧人每年在一处定居一两年,租些地,以其出产与邻市交易,直到地主因嫉妒他们日增的财富而拒绝续租,迫他们迁往他处一事上得着说明。

12. Then Isaac sowed in that land--During his sojourn in that district he farmed a piece of land, which, by the blessing of God on his skill and industry, was very productive
(Isa 65:13; Ps 37:19);
and by his plentiful returns he increased so rapidly in wealth and influence that the Philistines, afraid or envious of his prosperity, obliged him to leave the place
(Pr 27:4; Ec 4:4).
This may receive illustration from the fact that many Syrian shepherds at this day settle for a year or two in a place, rent some ground, in the produce of which they trade with the neighboring market, till the owners, through jealousy of their growing substance, refuse to renew their lease and compel them to remove elsewhere.

15. 他父亲的仆人所挖的井……非利士人全都塞住,等——同样的卑鄙策略,用以骚扰他们所怀恨的人,至今仍用沙石填塞井口,或以腐尸玷污井水来施行。
Original en inglés
15. all the wells which his father's servants had digged . . . the Philistines had stopped, &c.--The same base stratagem for annoying those against whom they have taken an umbrage is practiced still by choking the wells with sand or stones, or defiling them with putrid carcases.

17. 基拉耳谷——即河床或干谷,一片广大的起伏平原,无人居住,提供良好的牧场。
Original en inglés
17. valley of Gerar--torrent-bed or wady, a vast undulating plain, unoccupied and affording good pasture.

18-22. 以撒重新挖水井——亚伯拉罕为井起名,他家族对该产业的世袭权利,非利士人改了井名以抹去其起源的痕迹,以撒恢复其名,以及双方的牧人为独占水源而争——这些情形,在那些地区的土人中,如今正如以撒时代一样频繁地发生。
Original en inglés
18-22. Isaac digged again the wells of water--The naming of wells by Abraham, and the hereditary right of his family to the property, the change of the names by the Philistines to obliterate the traces of their origin, the restoration of the names by Isaac, and the contests between the respective shepherds to the exclusive possession of the water, are circumstances that occur among the natives in those regions as frequently in the present day as in the time of Isaac.

26-33. 亚比米勒……到以撒那里——亚伯拉罕与以撒的拜访之间相隔九十年,因此所说的亚比米勒和非各必是不同的人所任的官职衔头。这里又有一个应许
(Ge 12:2)
应验的明证,就是基拉耳王向他主动求和。无论这提议出于什么动机——是惧怕他日增的势力,还是为过去苛待他而后悔——王和两位朝臣拜访了以撒的帐棚
(箴 16:7)。
他那怯弱被动的性情忍受了粗暴邻舍的扰害;但如今他们既愿重新立约,他便对他们的行为深表不满,对他们竟敢挨近他的厚颜或诡诈感到惊奇。然而他既性情和平,便赦免了他们的过犯,接受了他们的提议,并以筵席款待他们,立约通常以此筵席作结。

26-33. Then Abimelech went to him--As there was a lapse of ninety years between the visit of Abraham and of Isaac, the Abimelech and Phichol spoken of must have been different persons' official titles. Here is another proof of the promise
(Ge 12:2)
being fulfilled, in an overture of peace being made to him by the king of Gerar. By whatever motive the proposal was dictated--whether fear of his growing power, or regret for the bad usage they had given him, the king and two of his courtiers paid a visit to the tent of Isaac
(Pr 16:7).
His timid and passive temper had submitted to the annoyances of his rude neighbors; but now that they wish to renew the covenant, he evinces deep feeling at their conduct, and astonishment at their assurance, or artifice, in coming near him. Being, however, of a pacific disposition, Isaac forgave their offense, accepted their proposals, and treated them to the banquet by which the ratification of a covenant was usually crowned.

34. 以扫……娶了妻——若亚伯拉罕敬虔的心情因以撒与迦南女子联姻而退缩
[Ge 24:3],
这位敬虔的先祖对自己儿女的此类联姻也必同样反对;我们不难想象,他那敬虔的心受了何等的创伤,家中的平安遭到何等的破坏,当他那蒙爱却任性的儿子竟把不少于两个拜偶像的妻子带进家中——这进一步证明以扫既不渴慕神的祝福,也不畏惧神的咒诅。这些妻子始终未能得到他父母的爱,这种隔阂被神用来使蒙选的家族远离异教影响的危险。

34. Esau . . . took to wife--If the pious feelings of Abraham recoiled from the idea of Isaac forming a matrimonial connection with a Canaanitish woman
[Ge 24:3],
that devout patriarch himself would be equally opposed to such a union on the part of his children; and we may easily imagine how much his pious heart was wounded, and the family peace destroyed, when his favorite but wayward son brought no less than two idolatrous wives among them--an additional proof that Esau neither desired the blessing nor dreaded the curse of God. These wives never gained the affections of his parents, and this estrangement was overruled by God for keeping the chosen family aloof from the dangers of heathen influence.
Ge 26:1-35.
寄居基拉耳。
1. 在那地有饥荒……以撒就到……基拉耳去——迦南的饥荒迫使以撒带着家眷和群畜迁入非利士人的地,在那里他像他父亲一样,因妻子的美貌而身陷险境;但因神及时的护理干预,他得以保全
(Ps 105:14, 15)。
