Ex 6:1-13.
RENEWAL OF THE PROMISE.
1. the Lord said unto Moses--The Lord, who is long-suffering and indulgent to the errors and infirmities of His people, made allowance for the mortification of Moses as the result of this first interview and cheered him with the assurance of a speedy and successful termination to his embassy.

3. 我……全能的上帝——一切仇敵必傾倒,一切難處在我全能的大能面前必消散,列祖對此已有充分的證據。
至於我名等語——更恰當地以問話讀作:至於我的名耶和華,我豈沒有向他們顯明嗎?我——這應許立約、以我的尊榮保證其應驗的全能上帝——豈不也是那存活以成就這約的自存之上帝嗎?因此可以安心,我必將其成就。本段引起許多討論;許多人認為其意是:由於耶和華這名——至少在其完整的意涵或實際經歷上——列祖並不認識,這啟示的尊榮便保留給摩西;他是首位奉耶和華之名奉差遣、並能以一連串公開的神蹟加以證實的人。

3. I . . . God Almighty--All enemies must fall, all difficulties must vanish before My omnipotent power, and the patriarchs had abundant proofs of this.
but by my name, &c.--rather, interrogatively, by My name Jehovah was I not known to them? Am not I, the Almighty God, who pledged My honor for the fulfilment of the covenant, also the self-existent God who lives to accomplish it? Rest assured, therefore, that I shall bring it to pass. This passage has occasioned much discussion; and it has been thought by many to intimate that as the name Jehovah was not known to the patriarchs, at least in the full bearing or practical experience of it, the honor of the disclosure was reserved to Moses, who was the first sent with a message in the name of Jehovah, and enabled to attest it by a series of public miracles.

9-11. 摩西這樣告訴以色列人——以色列人所受的壓迫更為嚴厲,似乎不但完全壓垮了他們的精神,也激怒了他們,以致他們拒絕再聽任何信息
(出 14:12)。 連摩西本人的信心也在動搖;若不是他從上帝那裏接到明確的命令,要他毫不遲延地再去見百姓,同時以更堅決、更不容拒絕的語氣向王重申其要求,他必已經在絕望中放棄了這事業。

9-11. Moses spake so unto the children of Israel--The increased severities inflicted on the Israelites seem to have so entirely crushed their spirits, as well as irritated them, that they refused to listen to any more communications
(Ex 14:12).
Even the faith of Moses himself was faltering; and he would have abandoned the enterprise in despair had he not received a positive command from God to revisit the people without delay, and at the same time renew their demand on the king in a more decisive and peremptory tone.

12. 何況……我是拙口笨舌的人呢?——這是希伯來人的一個隱喻:他們受教視任何部分的割禮為完全的記號,以「未受割禮」表示其缺陷或不合宜。此處的話表達了摩西多麼痛苦地感受到自己缺乏口才或說服力。他似乎陷入了與其同胞同樣深沉的沮喪,並以神經質的膽怯退縮於一個艱難——甚至絕望——的案件。他若在那些切身利益全都繫於此的百姓中如此失敗,對一位驕傲自恃、握有絕對權力的王,他還能有甚麼更好的盼望在其心中留下印象呢?上帝對其百姓在如此不願接受其即將拯救之宣告上所表現的寬容忍耐,何等令人矚目!他們一切乖僻的抱怨或漠不關心,都未能阻止祂恩典旨意的發展。相反,此處與一般情形一樣,祂旨意的進程在降罰上是遲緩的,而在救苦或賜福上卻似乎更加迅速。

12. how then shall . . . who am of uncircumcised lips?--A metaphorical expression among the Hebrews, who, taught to look on the circumcision of any part as denoting perfection, signified its deficiency or unsuitableness by uncircumcision. The words here express how painfully Moses felt his want of utterance or persuasive oratory. He seems to have fallen into the same deep despondency as his brethren, and to be shrinking with nervous timidity from a difficult, if not desperate, cause. If he had succeeded so ill with the people, whose dearest interests were all involved, what better hope could he entertain of his making more impression on the heart of a king elated with pride and strong in the possession of absolute power? How strikingly was the indulgent forbearance of God displayed towards His people amid all their backwardness to hail His announcement of approaching deliverance! No perverse complaints or careless indifference on their part retarded the development of His gracious purposes. On the contrary, here, as generally, the course of His providence is slow in the infliction of judgments, while it moves more quickly, as it were, when misery is to be relieved or benefits conferred.

摩西的家譜。
14, 15. 他們宗族的家長——即他們家族的族長或首領。在此處的敘述中插入這張家譜表,是要認證摩西與亞倫的世系。他們二人都受命在埃及宮廷所行的事中扮演如此重要的角色,後來又被提升到上帝的政府和教會中如此高的職位,因此準確地追溯其譜系是極其重要的。流便與西緬既是雅各最長的兒子,便簡略提及,然後史家便進而列舉利未家的主要人物
〔出 6:16-19〕。

THE GENEALOGY OF MOSES.
14, 15. These be the heads of their fathers' houses--chiefs or governors of their houses. The insertion of this genealogical table in this part of the narrative was intended to authenticate the descent of Moses and Aaron. Both of them were commissioned to act so important a part in the events transacted in the court of Egypt and afterwards elevated to so high offices in the government and Church of God, that it was of the utmost importance that their lineage should be accurately traced. Reuben and Simeon being the oldest of Jacob's sons, a passing notice is taken of them, and then the historian advances to the enumeration of the principal persons in the house of Levi
[Ex 6:16-19].

23. 以利沙巴——即 Elizabeth。這些關於亞倫家的細微情節,卻略過自己家族的,表明了摩西真正的謙遜。一個野心家或騙子必會有不同的做法。

23. Elisheba--that is, Elizabethan. These minute particulars recorded of the family of Aaron, while he has passed over his own, indicate the real modesty of Moses. An ambitious man or an impostor would have acted in a different manner.

應許的重申。
1. 耶和華對摩西說——耶和華對其百姓的過失與軟弱恆久忍耐、寬容體恤,體諒摩西因這首次會見所生的挫敗,便以使他的使命迅速而圓滿終結的應許來激勵他。
