2-8. 人還特許的願等——人無論在何時何地,都慣於獻上許願之祭,或為已領受之恩而感恩,或為從所懼之禍中得拯救而感恩。摩西受神授權,為這自願的本分訂定條件。

人要歸給耶和華等——更當這樣譯:「按你的估價,人要歸給耶和華。」人可以將自己或兒女獻上,在聖所從事某種次要或僕役性質的工作

(1Sa 3:1)。

若有任何變更,這樣奉獻的人有權贖回自己;本章規定了贖價的數額,祭司可酌情按環境所需而減少。二十至六十歲的成年人,因能提供最大的服務,估價最高;五至二十歲的少年人較低,因服務性較弱;嬰孩雖可由父母在出生前奉獻

(1Sa 1:11),

但出生後一個月內既不能獻上,也不能贖回;老年人估價低於少年人,但高於孩童;窮人——為防止人輕率許願,任何情況下都不能免於付款——則按其力量估價。

Original em inglês

2-8. When a man shall make a singular vow, &c.--Persons have, at all times and in all places, been accustomed to present votive offerings, either from gratitude for benefits received, or in the event of deliverance from apprehended evil. And Moses was empowered, by divine authority, to prescribe the conditions of this voluntary duty.

the persons shall be for the Lord, &c.--better rendered thus:--"According to thy estimation, the persons shall be for the Lord." Persons might consecrate themselves or their children to the divine service, in some inferior or servile kind of work about the sanctuary

(1Sa 3:1).

In the event of any change, the persons so devoted had the privilege in their power of redeeming themselves; and this chapter specifies the amount of the redemption money, which the priest had the discretionary power of reducing, as circumstances might seem to require. Those of mature age, between twenty and sixty, being capable of the greatest service, were rated highest; young people, from five till twenty, less, because not so serviceable; infants, though devotable by their parents before birth

(1Sa 1:11),

could not be offered nor redeemed till a month after birth; old people were valued below the young, but above children; and the poor--in no case freed from payment, in order to prevent the rash formation of vows--were rated according to their means.

9-13. 人獻給耶和華的供物若是牲畜——即潔淨的牲畜。它既被許願獻上,就既不能作平常用途,也不能以等價之物交換——必須獻為祭——或若因發現瑕疵而不適於壇上之用,可以變賣,所得之款用於聖事。若許願獻的是不潔的牲畜——例如驢或駱駝——便要按估價歸祭司使用,或可由許願者付清那價值、另加五分之一的罰款來贖回。

Original em inglês

9-13. if it be a beast, whereof men bring an offering unto the Lord--a clean beast. After it had been vowed, it could neither be employed in common purposes nor exchanged for an equivalent--it must be sacrificed--or if, through some discovered blemish, it was unsuitable for the altar, it might be sold, and the money applied for the sacred service. If an unclean beast--such as an ass or camel, for instance, had been vowed, it was to be appropriated to the use of the priest at the estimated value, or it might be redeemed by the person vowing on payment of that value, and the additional fine of a fifth more.

14, 15. 人將房屋分別為聖歸給耶和華等——在這種情況下,房屋由祭司估價並變賣之後,所得的價款要歸於聖所。但業主若改變主意想贖回,可加五分之一的價款贖回。

Original em inglês

14, 15. when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the Lord, &c.--In this case, the house having been valued by the priest and sold, the proceeds of the sale were to be dedicated to the sanctuary. But if the owner wished, on second thought, to redeem it, he might have it by adding a fifth part to the price.

16-24. 人若將產業的一部分分別為聖歸給耶和華等——在已得的地業之情況下,若不贖回,便在禧年歸還原主;而祖傳產業中已許願的那部分,卻不歸還業主,而是永遠附屬於聖所。這顯著差異的原因,是要使每個人都有責任贖回產業,或激勵他最近的親屬去行,以防止任何家族在以色列中失去祖傳的產業。

Original em inglês

16-24. if a man shall sanctify unto the Lord some aprt of a field of his possession, &c.--In the case of acquired property in land, if not redeemed, it returned to the donor at the Jubilee; whereas the part of a hereditary estate, which had been vowed, did not revert to the owner, but remained attached in perpetuity to the sanctuary. The reason for this remarkable difference was to lay every man under an obligation to redeem the property, or stimulate his nearest kinsman to do it, in order to prevent a patrimonial inheritance going out from any family in Israel.

26, 27. 惟獨頭生的牲畜——這些在潔淨牲畜的情況下,既因一條普遍而常設的律法歸給神

(Ex 13:12; 34:19),

便不可再許願奉獻;而在不潔牲畜的情況下,則受上文所述的規則所管

(Le 27:11, 12)。

Original em inglês

26, 27. Only the firstling of the beasts--These, in the case of clean beasts, being consecrated to God by a universal and standing law

(Ex 13:12; 34:19),

could not be devoted; and in that of unclean beasts, were subject to the rule mentioned

(Le 27:11, 12).

28, 29. 但一切永獻給耶和華的,就是人他所永獻的,無論是人、是牲畜、是他承受為業的地……都不可賣,也不可贖——這論到最莊嚴的許願——許願者伴以對自己莊嚴的咒詛,誓言必履行他所宣告的目的。

Original em inglês

28, 29. no devoted thing, that a man shall devote unto the Lord of all that he hath, . . . shall be sold or redeemed--This relates to vows of the most solemn kind--the devotee accompanying his vow with a solemn imprecation on himself not to fail in accomplishing his declared purpose.

29. 必被治死——這宣告並非指那人要被獻為祭或被處以暴死;而是指他當終身在奉獻的狀態中不可更改。前面的規條顯然是要防止輕率許願

(Ec 5:4),

並鼓勵在一切關乎神與靈魂之間的事上嚴肅而周到地反省

(Lu 21:4)。

Original em inglês

29. shall surely be put to death--This announcement imported not that the person was to be sacrificed or doomed to a violent death; but only that he should remain till death unalterably in the devoted condition. The preceding regulations were evidently designed to prevent rashness in vowing

(Ec 5:4)

and to encourage serious and considerate reflection in all matters between God and the soul

(Lu 21:4).

30-33. 地上所有的,無論是地上的種子——這條律法以神聖的權威認可了一個古老的慣例

(Ge 14:20; 28:22)。

地上一切的出產都須納十分之一——這是以色列人作為租戶向地的主人神所繳的年租,也是他們為他護理的厚恩所獻的感恩祭。(參

Pr 3:9; 1Co 9:11; Ga 6:6)。

Original em inglês

30-33. all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land--This law gave the sanction of divine authority to an ancient usage

(Ge 14:20; 28:22).

The whole produce of the land was subjected to the tithe tribute--it was a yearly rent which the Israelites, as tenants, paid to God, the owner of the land, and a thank offering they rendered to Him for the bounties of His providence. (See

Pr 3:9; 1Co 9:11; Ga 6:6).

32. 凡在杖下經過的等——這是指收取牲畜十分之一的方法:牲畜被趕著逐一經過一個窄門,那裏有一個人拿著蘸了赭土的杖站著,數算它們,在每第十隻——無論公母、健全或有殘疾——的背上作記號。

Original em inglês

32. whatsoever passeth under the rod, &c.--This alludes to the mode of taking the tithe of cattle, which were made to pass singly through a narrow gateway, where a person with a rod, dipped in ochre, stood, and counting them, marked the back of every tenth beast, whether male or female, sound or unsound.

34. 這就是耶和華……所吩咐的等——本書所載的律法,多為禮儀性的,卻有重要的屬靈意義,研讀這些意義大有教益

(Ro 10:4; Heb 4:2; 12:18)。

它們加上了沉重的軛

(Ac 15:10),

但在教會的嬰孩時期,卻構成了「訓蒙的師傅,引我們到基督那裡」

[Ga 3:24]

所必需的訓練。

34. These are the commandments, &c.--The laws contained in this book, for the most part ceremonial, had an important spiritual bearing, the study of which is highly instructive

(Ro 10:4; Heb 4:2; 12:18).

They imposed a burdensome yoke

(Ac 15:10),

but yet in the infantine age of the Church formed the necessary discipline of "a schoolmaster to Christ"

[Ga 3:24].
