Jeremiah 27 Introduction
繁體中文
英語原文
In Jeremiah 27-29 we see with what energy, and yet thoughtfulness, Jeremiah enforced the lessons of Jeremiah 25. These chapters belong to the first four years of Zedekiah.
The spelling of certain proper names in these chapters has led some to argue that they were revised and corrected in Ezra's time, if not by Ezra himself. Others think the fact of no importance whatever.
1
Jeremiah 27:1
繁體中文
「約雅敬」——其實應為西底家，正如敘利亞譯本的讀法（見Jeremiah 27:3）。在七十士譯本中，這節經文並不存在。某個文士把本章的標題與Jeremiah 26的標題弄混了。
英語原文
Of Jehoiakim - Really, of Zedekiah, as the Syriac reads (see Jeremiah 27:3). In the Septuagint the verse is missing. Some scribe has confused the title of this chapter with that of Jeremiah 26.
2
Jeremiah 27:2
繁體中文
「軛」——由兩塊彎曲的木頭構成，一塊放在牛頸之上，一塊放在頸下，再用綁索或繩子繫牢（參 Psalm 2:3）。並參看邊註所列的參考經文。
英語原文
Yokes - Two curved pieces of wood, the one put over the neck of the ox, the other under, and then fastened together by bonds or cords (compare Psalm 2:3). Compare the marginal references.
3
Jeremiah 27:3
繁體中文
「來」——或作「已經來了」。這五位王的使臣大概已來到耶路撒冷，商議締結聯盟，以擺脫巴比倫的霸權。這圖謀終告失敗。
英語原文
Come - Or, are come. The ambassadors of these five kings had probably come to Jerusalem to consult about forming a league to throw off the Babylonian supremacy. The attempt failed.
7
Jeremiah 27:7
繁體中文
「他的兒子和他孫子」——即以未羅達與拿波尼度（見 Daniel 5:1 註釋）。
「他們也要服事他」——見旁註參考。巴比倫的餘民長久服事波斯和瑪代諸王之後，終被塞琉古王朝所滅。
英語原文
His son, and his son's son - Evil-Merodach and Nabonadius (see Daniel 5:1 note).
Shall serve themselves of him - See the marginal reference. After long servitude to the Persian and Median kings, the Selucidae ruined the remains of Babylon.
9
Jeremiah 27:9
繁體中文
「作夢的」——直譯如旁註。人為自己作夢，又去問占卜的，求夢的解釋。
英語原文
Dreamers - literally, as in the margin. People dream dreams for themselves, and go to diviners to ask the explanation of them.
10
Jeremiah 27:10
繁體中文
「使你們遠離……」——那將是他們占卜預言所帶來的結果。
英語原文
To remove you far ... - That would be the result of their vaticinations.
11
Jeremiah 27:11
繁體中文
「列國……」——更佳的譯法是：「那國」。
英語原文
Nations ... - Rather, the nation.
13
Jeremiah 27:13
繁體中文
西底家在巴比倫的軛下心懷不安，假先知從他那裏得到極其順從的回應。經文用複數向他說話，因為大多數朝廷官員和百姓都與他有同樣的感受。
英語原文
Zedekiah was restless under the Babylonian yoke, and the false prophets found only too ready a hearing from him. He is addressed in the plural because his feelings were fully shared by the mass of the officers of state and by the people.
在 Jeremiah 27-29 中，我們看見耶利米以何等的魄力、又何等的深思，強化了 Jeremiah 25 的教訓。這幾章屬於西底家在位的頭四年。
這幾章中某些專名的拼法，使一些人主張它們曾於以斯拉時代修訂校正，甚至可能出於以斯拉本人之手；另一些人則認為這一事實根本無關緊要。
