DELIVERY OF THE LAW AND COVENANT.

3, 4. 摩西下山，將耶和華的命令、典章都述說與百姓聽——上述律法與十誡的複述，加上順命即蒙特別賜福的應許，既從百姓口中引出一致同意的宣告，便立即被記錄下來，作為國家盟約的條件。次日作了莊嚴批准的準備——築一座壇和十二根柱子；壇代表上帝，柱子代表以色列的支派——這莊嚴盟約的雙方——而摩西則擔任預表性的中保。

3, 4. Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord--The rehearsal of the foregoing laws and the ten commandments, together with the promises of special blessings in the event of their obedience, having drawn forth from the people a unanimous declaration of their consent, it was forthwith recorded as the conditions of the national covenant. The next day preparations were made for having it (the covenant) solemnly ratified, by building an altar and twelve pillars; the altar representing God, and the pillars the tribes of Israel--the two parties in this solemn compact--while Moses acted as typical mediator.

5. 少年人——即祭司
（出 19:22）， 可能是某些家庭最長的兒子，在摩西的指揮下行事。
公牛——其他牲畜雖未提及，也被獻為祭
（來 9:18-20）。

5. young men--priests
(Ex 19:22),
probably the oldest sons of particular families, who acted under the direction of Moses.
oxen--Other animals, though not mentioned, were offered in sacrifice
(Heb 9:18-20).

6. 摩西取了一半的血……獒在——在此之前的是律法的公開宣讀和百姓對條款重新接受；然後獒血是莊嚴批准的記號——交易雙方各得一半。

6. Moses took half of the blood . . . sprinkled--Preliminary to this was the public reading of the law and the renewed acceptance of the terms by the people; then the sprinkling of the blood was the sign of solemn ratification--half on each party in the transaction.

8. 摩西把血灑在百姓身上——大概是灑在代表百姓的十二根柱子上
（也包括書卷，來 9:19），
這動作伴隨著對其意義的公開宣告。這是他們在盟約上蓋印
（比較 林前 11:25）。
這必定是一個深刻動人、也富有教益的場面，因為它教導以色列人：這約只是藉著灑血才與他們立定的——上帝對他們及其事奉的悅納，只是憑著贖罪祭的功效——甚至國家盟約的福分，也只是憑著恩典才應許並確保賜給他們的。然而，正如使徒所示，這禮儀還有更進一步、更高的意義
（見上引）。

8. Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people--probably on the twelve pillars, as representing the people (also the book,
Heb 9:19),
and the act was accompanied by a public proclamation of its import. It was setting their seal to the covenant (compare
1Co 11:25).
It must have been a deeply impressive, as well as instructive scene, for it taught the Israelites that the covenant was made with them only through the sprinkling of blood--that the divine acceptance of themselves and services, was only by virtue of an atoning sacrifice, and that even the blessings of the national covenant were promised and secured to them only through grace. The ceremonial, however, had a further and higher significance, as is shown by the apostle (see
as above).

9. 摩西、亞倫就上去——是照著先前
（出 24:1, 2；
亦參 出 19:24）
在百姓的宗教活動——如今所述——之前所賜的命令而行。
拿答、亞比戶——亞倫的兩個長子
〔出 6:23〕。
七十個長老——一個精選的數目；揀選的原則未說明；但他們是各支派中主要的代表，在其各自的支派中最為顯著於官階與地位，也最為正直而有分量。

(Ex 24:1, 2;
also
Ex 19:24),
previous to the religious engagement of the people, now described.
Nadab, and Abihu--the two oldest sons of Aaron
[Ex 6:23].
seventy of the elders--a select number; what was the principle of selection is not said; but they were the chief representatives, the most conspicuous for official rank and station, as well as for their probity and weight of character in their respective tribes.

10. 他們看見以色列的上帝——至於神性沒有任何可見的形狀或代表，我們已得到明確的指示
（申 4:15）。 但祂榮耀的象徵或表號，卻清晰地、從遠處展示在那些選定的見證人面前。然而許多人認為，在這私下的場景中，在那明亮的光輝中，隱約可見基督人性那模糊的輪廓
（結 1:26；
比較 加 3:24）。
藍寶石——最貴重、最光澤的寶石之一——天藍或淡青色，常被用以描述上帝的寶座
（見 結 1:26；10:1）。

10. And they saw the God of Israel--That there was no visible form or representation of the divine nature, we have expressly intimated
(De 4:15).
But a symbol or emblem of His glory was distinctly, and at a distance, displayed before those chosen witnesses. Many think, however, that in this private scene was discovered, amid the luminous blaze, the faint adumbrated form of the humanity of Christ
(Eze 1:26; compare
Ga 3:24).
sapphire--one of the most valuable and lustrous of the precious gems--of a sky-blue or light azure color and frequently chosen to describe the throne of God (see
Eze 1:26; 10:1).

11. 不伸手加在以色列的尊者身上——這些「尊者」即長老們，在灑血之後，在上帝威嚴那平靜、溫和、輝煌的象徵面前，並未心生恐懼；這與頒布律法時那些可怕的展現何等不同。這麼多可靠見證人的報告，有助於堅固百姓對摩西神聖使命的信心。
又吃又喝——享受平安祭——享受最近祭牲與奠祭的剩餘。這宴席有預言性的意義，暗示上帝要與人同住。

11. upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand--The "nobles," that is, the elders, after the sprinkling of the blood, were not inspired with terror in presence of the calm, benign, radiant symbol of the divine majesty; so different from the terrific exhibitions at the giving of the law. The report of so many competent witnesses would tend to confirm the people's faith in the divine mission of Moses.
eat and drink--feasted on the peace offering--on the remnants of the late sacrifices and libations. This feast had a prophetic bearing, intimating God's dwelling with men.

12. 我要將石版賜給你——已經口述過的十誡，要以永久的形式賜下。刻在石頭上——為更持久——而且是上帝親手所刻，如此便被認證並被尊崇於律法的司法或禮儀部分之上。

12. I will give thee tables of stone--The ten commandments, which had already been spoken, were to be given in a permanent form. Inscribed on stone, for greater durability, by the hand of God Himself, they were thus authenticated and honored above the judicial or ceremonial parts of the law.

13. 摩西和他的幫手約書亞上了上帝的山——他被召去領受上帝所寫的文本。約書亞被帶到更高一些的地方；在領袖等待第六天或安息日那日的呼召期間，有他作伴將是極大的安慰。

13. Moses went up into the mount of God--He was called to receive the divine transcript. Joshua was taken a little higher, and it would be a great comfort for the leader to have his company during the six days he was in patient waiting for the call on the seventh or sabbath day.

14. 他對長老說：你們在這裏等我們——在 Jebel Musa 山坡上方有一處環形的谷地或窪地，是他們停駐之處，而他獨蒙特欓登最高峰。百姓站在下面，如在「外院」；長老們在「聖所」；摩西作為基督的預表，在「至聖所」。

14. he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us--There is a circular valley or hollow a good way up on the brow of Jebel Musa, which was their halting place, while he alone was privileged to ascend the highest peak. The people stood below, as in the "outer court," the elders in the "holy place," Moses, as a type of Christ, in "the holy of holies."
