(Ps 95:11).

2. 你们要将以色列全会众的总数计算——时隔三十八年之后重新数点，其目的首先是要证实亚伯拉罕的后裔尽管受了严厉的刑罚，仍有极大的繁增；其次是要保全各宗室的区分，并为进入应许之地后按各支派人口的多少分配那地作预备安排。
bản gốc tiếng anh
2. Take the sum of all the congregation--The design of this new census, after a lapse of thirty-eight years, was primarily to establish the vast multiplication of the posterity of Abraham in spite of the severe judgments inflicted upon them; secondarily, it was to preserve the distinction of families and to make arrangements, preparatory to an entrance into the promised land, for the distribution of the country according to the relative population of the tribes.

7. 这就是流便人的各族——即主要的家室，其下再分为众多更小的家族。流便因可拉的阴谋及其他叛乱事件而大为减损
[Nu 16:1]。
bản gốc tiếng anh
7. These are the families of the Reubenites--the principal households, which were subdivided into numerous smaller families. Reuben had suffered great diminution by Korah's conspiracy and other outbreaks
[Nu 16:1].

10. 地开口吞了他们和可拉——更准确地说，应作“可拉的人事物”。 （参
Nu 16:35；
另参
Ps 106:17）。
bản gốc tiếng anh
10. the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up together with Korah--rather, "the things of Korah." (See on
Nu 16:35;
compare
Ps 106:17).

11. 然而可拉的众子没有死亡——他们或未参与其父之罪，或因及时悔改而退出了那事。他的后裔在大卫时代颇负盛名，在《诗篇》中常被提及
[Ps 42:1; 44:1; 45:1; 46:1; 47:1; 48:1; 49:1; 84:1; 85:1; 87:1; 88:1]，
在
1Ch 6:22, 38
中也有记载。
bản gốc tiếng anh
11. Notwithstanding the children of Korah died not--Either they were not parties to their father's crime, or they withdrew from it by timely repentance. His descendants became famous in the time of David, and are often mentioned in the Psalms
[Ps 42:1; 44:1; 45:1; 46:1; 47:1; 48:1; 49:1; 84:1; 85:1; 87:1; 88:1],
also in
1Ch 6:22, 38.

12. 西缅的众子——据推测这支派在巴力毗珥之罪中居首，因此人数大减。
如此，神的公义与圣洁，以及他的信实与诚实，都显著地显明出来：他的公义与圣洁在于那削减某些支派行列的广泛刑罚；他的信实与诚实在于其他支派的奇妙加增，使以色列的后裔继续成为众多之民。

12. The sons of Simeon--It is supposed that this tribe had been pre-eminent in the guilt of Baal-peor and had consequently been greatly reduced in numbers.
Thus God's justice and holiness, as well as His truth and faithfulness, were strikingly displayed: His justice and holiness in the sweeping judgments that reduced the ranks of some tribes; and His truth and faithfulness in the extraordinary increase of others so that the posterity of Israel continued a numerous people.

53. 地要按名字的数目分给——每个支派所得的份，要按其人口的多少而定。
bản gốc tiếng anh
53. the land shall be divided according to the number of names--The portion of each tribe was to be greater or less, according to its populousness.

54. 人多的，你要多分产业给他——即给人数较多的支派，要分给他们更大的地业。
按被数的人——即按数点时二十岁以上的人数，并不考虑到了实际分地时达到这年龄者的增加，也不考虑在征服战中所造成的减少。
bản gốc tiếng anh
54. To many thou shalt give the more inheritance--that is, to the more numerous tribes a larger allotment shall be granted.
according to those that were numbered--the number of persons twenty years old at the time of the census being made, without taking into account either the increase of those who might have attained that age, when the land should be actually distributed, or the diminution from that amount, occasioned during the war of invasion.

55. 地要凭阄分开——掣签并不使这事脱离神的掌管；因为签是在祂手中
(箴 16:33)，
祂也定了万人居住的疆界。掣签的方式并未记下。但显然，签是为决定每个支派所在的那一区而掣的——不是决定他们所得地业的多寡。换言之，签既定了某支派定居于北或南、东或西，其疆界的广狭便按
(民 26:54)
的规则分配。
bản gốc tiếng anh
55. the land shall be divided by lot--The appeal to the lot did not place the matter beyond the control of God; for it is at His disposal
(Pr 16:33),
and He has fixed to all the bounds of their habitation. The manner in which the lot was taken has not been recorded. But it is evident that the lot was cast for determining the section of the country in which each tribe should be located--not the quantity of their possessions. In other words, when the lot had decided that a particular tribe was to be settled in the north or the south, the east or the west, the extent of territory was allocated according to the rule
(Nu 26:54).

58. 利未人的各族——这支派的数点是单独进行的，所依据的原则也与其他支派不同。（参见
出 6:16-19。）

58. families of the Levites--The census of this tribe was taken separately, and on a different principle from the rest. (See
Ex 6:16-19).

62. 二万三千——也就是说，比以前增加了
(民 3:39)
一千人。
一个月以外的男丁—— （参见

62. twenty and three thousand--so that there was an increase of a thousand

64. 这些人中没有一个……在西乃的旷野被数过的——本节的话不可当作绝对的。因为除了迦勒和约书亚之外，那时还活着的还有以利亚撒和以他玛，也很可能还有相当多的利未人，他们并未参与百姓在旷野的背逆。利未支派既没有派探子进迦南，也没有列入在西乃的数点中，就不在那致命判决的范围内；因此它将呈现出其他支派所看不见的景象——许多六十岁以上的人仍在他们的队伍中。

64. among these there was not a man . . . numbered . . . in the wilderness of Sinai--The statement in this verse must not be considered absolute. For, besides Caleb and Joshua, there were alive at this time Eleazar and Ithamar, and in all probability a considerable number of Levites, who had no participation in the popular defections in the wilderness. The tribe of Levi, having neither sent a spy into Canaan, nor being included in the enumeration at Sinai, must be regarded as not coming within the range of the fatal sentence; and therefore it would exhibit a spectacle not to be witnessed in the other tribes of many in their ranks above sixty years of age.

以色列人 被数点。
1. 瘟疫之后——那可畏的灾殃已扫除了旧世代残余的人，神曾在其怒中起誓说他们断不得进入迦南
(Ps 95:11)。
