2. 凡……將他的兒女獻給摩勒的——（參
Le 18:21 的註釋）。
本地的人要用石頭打死他等——被判石刑的罪犯，雙手被縛，被帶到城外一個小高地上，那裡底部放著一塊大石。當他們走近該處十肘之內時，便有人勸他認罪，好叫他的靈魂因信悔改而得救。被帶到四肘之內時，他們幾乎被剝去衣服，並飲下某種令人昏迷的飲料，此時證人們則脫去外衣，預備執行律法所規定的死刑。罪犯被放在崖邊，然後被向後推下，使他從垂直的高處跌落在下面的石頭上；若跌下未死，第二個證人便將一塊大石猛擲其胸，隨後「本地的人」——即旁觀者——便蜂擁上前，用石頭完成致死的工作
(Mt 21:44; Ac 7:58)。

2. Whosoever . . . giveth any of his seed unto Molech--(See on
Le 18:21).
the people of the land shall stone him with stones, &c.--Criminals who were condemned to be stoned were led, with their hands bound, without the gates to a small eminence, where was a large stone placed at the bottom. When they had approached within ten cubits of the spot, they were exhorted to confess, that, by faith and repentance, their souls might be saved. When led forward to within four cubits, they were stripped almost naked, and received some stupefying draught, during which the witnesses prepared, by laying aside their outer garments, to carry into execution the capital sentence which the law bound them to do. The criminal, being placed on the edge of the precipice, was then pushed backwards, so that he fell down the perpendicular height on the stone lying below: if not killed by the fall, the second witness dashed a large stone down upon his breast, and then the "people of the land," who were by-standers, rushed forward, and with stones completed the work of death
(Mt 21:44; Ac 7:58).

4. 本地的人若掩眼不顧他等——即對同胞行摩勒那可憎之禮予以默許。希伯來人的父母竟如此違背他們民族的約，實在可怕；無怪乎神對他們和他們的家人宣告最嚴厲的刑罰。
영문 원문
4. If the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, &c.--that is, connive at their countrymen practising the horrid rites of Molech. Awful was it that any Hebrew parents could so violate their national covenant, and no wonder that God denounced the severest penalties against them and their families.

7-19. 所以你們要自潔成聖——此處所列亂倫與悖乎自然的罪行，其詳細的列舉，顯示出這些罪在周圍的偶像崇拜各國中可悲地盛行，也顯示出以色列人極易跟從鄰國的風俗。當提到犯罪者「必要被治死」而未說明方式時，應理解為指石刑。唯一出現另一種死刑形式的記載在
Le 20:14，
即被火焚燒；然而很可能此處也是先用石刑處死，再將罪犯的身體用火燒盡
(Jos 7:15)。
영문 원문
7-19. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy--The minute specification of the incestuous and unnatural crimes here enumerated shows their sad prevalence amongst the idolatrous nations around, and the extreme proneness of the Israelites to follow the customs of their neighbors. It is to be understood, that, whenever mention is made that the offender was "to be put to death" without describing the mode, stoning is meant. The only instance of another form of capital punishment occurs in
Le 20:14,
that of being burnt with fire; and yet it is probable that even here death was first inflicted by stoning, and the body of the criminal afterwards consumed by fire
(Jos 7:15).

20. 必無子女而死——或因神的審判而無子嗣，或他們私生的後代被人的權威否認其在以色列中作兒女的通常權利。

20. they shall die childless--Either by the judgment of God they shall have no children, or their spurious offspring shall be denied by human authority the ordinary privileges of children in Israel.

24. 我……使你們與萬民有別——他們從列國中被揀選出來，是為了那極重要的目的——在普遍的背道中保存對真神的認識和敬拜；既然食物的分別是完成那分離的一大方法，論到分別潔淨與不潔牲畜的律法便在此以強調的莊嚴重申。
영문 원문
24. I . . . have separated you from other people--Their selection from the rest of the nations was for the all-important end of preserving the knowledge and worship of the true God amid the universal apostasy; and as the distinction of meats was one great means of completing that separation, the law about making a difference between clean and unclean beasts is here repeated with emphatic solemnity.
