Nu 36:1-13.

产业的 不便之处。

1. 基列子孙各族的长族长——他们作为玛拿西支派内的族长领袖,就一桩关系本支派公众名誉与利益的事向摩西请示。此事再次涉及西罗非哈的女儿们。从前她们主动申请,因家中无男嗣,而被承认有权继承父亲的产业

[Nu 27:1-11];

如今这申请是代表她们所属的支派而提出的——要求采取措施,防止她们因与别支派的人通婚而导致祖产外流。在此情形下,女儿们不受限制的婚姻严重威胁以色列中土地的持有,因为她们的产业将归给她们的儿女;这些儿女按父系将属于另一支派,由此因利益纠葛和家族混乱而导致一种连禧年也无法补救的弊端。[参

Le 25:13]。

英語原文

Nu 36:1-13.

THE INCONVENIENCE OF THE INHERITANCE.

1. the chief fathers of the families of the children of Gilead--Being the tribal governors in Manasseh, they consulted Moses on a case that affected the public honor and interests of their tribe. It related once more to the daughters of Zelophehad. Formerly they had applied, at their own instance, to be recognized, for want of male heirs in their family, as entitled to inherit their father's property

[Nu 27:1-11];

now the application was made on behalf of the tribe to which they belonged--that steps might be taken to prevent the alienation of their patrimony by their alliance with husbands of another tribe. The unrestricted marriages of daughters in such circumstances threatened seriously to affect the tenure of land in Israel, as their inheritance would go to their children, who, by the father's side, would belong to another tribe, and thus lead, through a complication of interests and the confusion of families, to an evil for which even the Jubilee could not afford a remedy. [See on

Le 25:13].

简体中文

5-12. 摩西照耶和华的话吩咐以色列人——这请求看来公正合理;于是颁布了一条法令:西罗非哈的女儿在自由选择丈夫的同时,被限制不仅要在本支派内婚配,更要在其父支派的本家族内——即嫁给她们的表兄弟。然而这限制只加在那些身为女继承人的身上。这律法不适用于处境不同的女儿

(1Ch 23:22)

——她们可以嫁入别支派;但若如此行,便可能丧失其祖传的产业,那产业在其父亲或兄弟死后,归于最近的家族亲属。这是以色列中渐进立法的一例(另见

Ex 18:27),

所立的法规乃因情势而发。但特别值得注意的是,这些对律法的增补或修改仅限于民事事务;而在关乎敬拜或维护宗教的律法上,哪怕最微小的更改也不可。

英語原文

5-12. Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord--The plea appeared just and reasonable; and, accordingly an enactment was made by which the daughters of Zelophehad, while left to the free choice of their husbands, were restricted to marry not only within their own tribe, but within the family of their father's tribe--that is, one of their cousins. This restriction, however, was imposed only on those who were heiresses. The law was not applicable to daughters in different circumstances

(1Ch 23:22)

--for they might marry into another tribe; but if they did so, they were liable to forfeit their patrimonial inheritance, which, on the death of their father or brothers, went to the nearest of the family kinsmen. Here was an instance of progressive legislation (see also

Ex 18:27)

in Israel, the enactments made being suggested by circumstances. But it is deserving of special notice that those additions to, or modifications of, the law were confined to civil affairs; while the slightest change was inadmissible in the laws relating to worship or the maintenance of religion.

简体中文

13. 这是耶和华藉摩西在摩押平原吩咐以色列人的命令、典章——以色列人的营地位于亚嫩河以北的一片广袤高原上;这地虽被西宏和噩从摩押人手中夺来,却仍沿用原主之名。其确切位置,正如“靠近耶利哥的约旦河”一语所示,如今称为 El-Koura——一片位于尼波不远、亚嫩河与一小条支流 Wael 之间的大平原 [BURCKHARDT]。这是约旦河东岸的一片荒漠平原,只以一丛丛野生多刺的皂荚树为标记。

英語原文

13. These are the commandments and the judgments, which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel in the plains of Moab--The Israelitish encampment was on an extensive plateau north of the Arnon, which, though wrested from the Moabites by Sihon and Og, still retained the name of its original possessors. The particular site, as indicated by the words "Jordan near Jericho," is now called El-Koura--a large plain lying not far from Nebo, between the Arnon and a small tributary stream, the Wael [BURCKHARDT]. It was a desert plain on the eastern bank, and marked only by groves of the wild, thorny acacia tree.
