Deuteronomy Kabanata 26

Deuteronomy 26:1
简体中文
orihinal na Ingles
Two liturgical enactments having a clear and close reference to the whole of the preceding legislation, form a most appropriate and significant conclusion to it, namely,
(1) the formal acknowledgment in deed and symbol of God's faithfulness, by presentment of a basket filled with firstfruits, and in word by recitation of the solemn formula prescribed in Deuteronomy 26:3, Deuteronomy 26:5-10; and
(2) the solemn declaration and profession on the part of each Israelite on the occasion of the third tithe Deuteronomy 26:12.

Deuteronomy 26:2
简体中文
关于初熟果子的问题，见利未记 23:9 及以下的注释。此处所论的初熟果子，既当与逾越节和五旬节为承认丰收之福而献的（参 Exodus 22:29）相区别，也当与民数记 18:8 及以下所规定的供物相区别。后者由地的出产加工制成，如油、细面、酒等；而此处所指的乃是未经加工的出产：前者是全民的、公共的供物，本章的则是私人而个人的供物。初熟果子全部归于供职的祭司。

On the subject of firstfruits see the notes at Leviticus 23:9 ff. The firstfruits here in question are to be distinguished alike from those offered in acknowledgment of the blessings of harvest (compare Exodus 22:29) at the Feasts of Passover and Pentecost, and also from the offerings prescribed in Numbers 18:8 ff. The latter consisted of preparations from the produce of the earth, such as oil, flour, wine, etc.; while those here meant are the raw produce: the former were national and public offerings, those of this chapter were private and personal. The whole of the firstfruits belonged to the officiating priest.

Deuteronomy 26:5
简体中文
我祖原是一个将亡的亚兰人 - 从上下文可见，这里所指是雅各，因为亚伯拉罕的家室正是在他身上特别开始发展为一个民族（参较 Isaiah 43:22, Isaiah 43:28 等）。雅各被称为亚兰人（字面作 Aramaean），不仅因为他自己曾与拉班长居叙利亚（Genesis 29-31）——正如我们主因住在拿撒勒而被称为拿撒勒人（Matthew 2:23）——也因为他是在那里娶妻生子的（参较 Hosea 12:12）；因此可以说，与其说他属于任何别的地方，不如说他属于那地。

A Syrian ready to perish was my father - The reference is shown by the context to be to Jacob, as the ancestor in whom particularly the family of Abraham began to develop into a nation (compare Isaiah 43:22, Isaiah 43:28, etc.). Jacob is called a Syrian (literally, Aramaean), not only because of his own long residence in Syria with Laban Genesis 29-31, as our Lord was called a Nazarene because of his residence at Nazareth Matthew 2:23, but because he there married and had his children (compare Hosea 12:12); and might be said accordingly to belong to that more than to any other land.

Deuteronomy 26:12
简体中文
见指向民数记的旁注参考及其注释。严格履行繁重而复杂的什一奉献义务，是法利赛人之义的主要部分：参较 Matthew 23:23。
orihinal na Ingles
See the marginal reference to Numbers and note. A strict fulfillment of the onerous and complicated tithe obligations was a leading part of the righteousness of the Pharisees: compare Matthew 23:23.

Deuteronomy 26:14
简体中文
我守丧的时候没有吃这圣物 - 因为那时以色列人必成为不洁（比较旁注所引的参考经文）。
又没有为死人用去 - 这里所指的，与其说是把食物放在坟上或坟里的迷信风俗，不如说是丧葬的费用，尤其是为吊丧的人摆设的常规筵席（比较 Jeremiah 16:7；Ezekiel 24:17；Hosea 9:4；Tobit 4:17）。分别为圣之物应当用于喜乐而圣洁的宴乐，故不可用于丧筵；因为死亡以及与死亡相连的一切，都被看为不洁。
orihinal na Ingles
I have not eaten thereof in my mourning - When the Israelite would be unclean (compare the marginal references).
Nor given ought thereof for the dead - The reference is not so much to the superstitious custom of placing food on or in tombs as to the funeral expenses, and more especially the usual feast for the mourners (compare Jeremiah 16:7; Ezekiel 24:17; Hosea 9:4; Tobit 4:17). The dedicated things were to be employed in glad and holy feasting, not therefore for funeral banquets; for death and all associated with it was regarded as unclean.

Deuteronomy 26:16
简体中文
这是本卷书第二篇、也是最长一篇讲论的结语，一段简短而恳切的劝勉。
orihinal na Ingles
A brief and earnest exhortation by way of conclusion to the second and longest discourse of the book.

Deuteronomy 26:17
简体中文
你已承认 - 字面作“使…说”；下一节也是如此。其意义是：“你给了耶和华说祂是你神的根据”，也就是藉着应许祂必如此。参较 Exodus 24:7；Joshua 24:14-25。
orihinal na Ingles
Thou hast avouched - literally, "made to say:" so also in the next verse. The sense is: "Thou hast given occasion to the Lord to say that He is thy God," i. e. by promising that He shall be so. Compare Exodus 24:7; Joshua 24:14-25,
与前述全部立法有着清楚而密切关系的两项礼仪性规条，构成这立法十分恰切而意义深远的结束，即：
（1）借着呈上一筐装满初熟土产的筐子，以行动和象征正式承认神的信实，并借着诵读 Deuteronomy 26:3、26:5-10 所规定的庄严套语，以言语承认；以及
（2）每个以色列人在十分取一之年（Deuteronomy 26:12）所作的庄严宣告与表白。
