Deuteronomy 5:3
简体中文
英文原文
The "fathers" are, as in Deuteronomy 4:37, the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. With them God did indeed make a covenant, but not the particular covenant now in question. The responsibilites of this later covenant, made at Sinai by the nation as a nation, attached in their day and generation to those whom Moses was addressing.

Deuteronomy 5:6
简体中文
参较 Exodus 20 及其注释。
摩西在此以十诫为根基，据此进而责备、警告并劝勉百姓；他复述十诫时，带有一定程度的自由与变通。我们的主在 Mark 10:19，保罗在 Ephesians 6:2-3，处理同一主题的方式也与此相仿。然而，发言者与听众都承认，这些律法具有法定而权威的形式；这形式既为双方所熟悉，便无需逐字逐句地忠实复现。
英文原文
Compare Exodus 20 and notes.
Moses here adopts the Ten Words as a ground from which he may proceed to reprove, warn, and exhort; and repeats them, with a certain measure of freedom and adaptation. Our Lord Mark 10:19 and Paul Ephesians 6:2-3 deal similarly with the same subject. Speaker and hearers recognized, however, a statutory and authoritative form of the laws in question, which, because it was familiar to both parties, needed not to be reproduced with verbal fidelity.

Deuteronomy 5:12
简体中文
遵守安息日、容让仆婢得享休息时光的劝勉（参较 Exodus 23:12），是借着提醒百姓自己从前也曾为奴而得以强化。在埃及为奴及其蒙拯救，并不是安息日设立的根据——安息日的起源要古老得多（见 Genesis 2:3）——而是作为在宗教上遵守这一制度的动机提出来的。出埃及乃是脱离为奴之家的劳苦而进入安息，而且据认为实际上正是发生在安息日、即"安歇"之日。
英文原文
The exhortation to observe the Sabbath and allow time of rest to servants (compare Exodus 23:12) is pointed by reminding the people that they too were formerly servants themselves. The bondage in Egypt and the deliverance from it are not assigned as grounds for the institution of the Sabbath, which is of far older date (see Genesis 2:3), but rather as suggesting motives for the religious observance of that institution. The Exodus was an entrance into rest from the toils of the house of bondage, and is thought actually to have occurred on the Sabbath day or "rest" day.

Deuteronomy 5:16
简体中文
这里附加于遵守第五诫之上的普遍安康之福，并非对那应许真有什么增添，不过是将其表达加以扩充而已。
英文原文
The blessing of general well-being here annexed to the keeping of the fifth commandment, is no real addition to the promise, but only an amplification of its expression.
21
Deuteronomy 5:21
简体中文
“田地”是在平行经文 Exodus 20:17 所具体禁止的清单之外加添的。这一加添，出自一位直接着眼于听众面前迦南分配而说话的人，显得十分自然。
英文原文
The "field" is added to the list of objects specifically forbidden in the parallel passage Exodus 20:17. The addition seems very natural in one who was speaking with the partition of Canaan among his hearers directly in view.
22
Deuteronomy 5:22
简体中文
再没有添别的话 - 意即神没有再用那大声音直接向百姓说话，其余的一切传达都是藉着摩西向他们作的。这一独特而庄严的现象，随着十句话语由神的手指刻在两块石版上，不仅标明神律法整体的圣洁，更标明十句话语本身与其余摩西律例相比的特殊卓越性与恒久约束力。颁发两块石版，是在摩西山上度过四十昼夜之后才发生的，这一点从 Deuteronomy 9:9-12 更详细的记载可以看出。
英文原文
He added no more - i. e., He spoke no more with the great voice directly to the people, but addressed all other communications to them through Moses. This unique and sublime phenomenon, followed up by the inscription of the Ten Words on the two tables by the finger of God, marks not only the holiness of God's Law in general, but the special eminence and permanent obligation of the Ten Words themselves as compared with the rest of the Mosaic enactments. The giving of the two tables did not take place until Moses had been on the Mount 40 days and 40 nights, as appears from the fuller account of Deuteronomy 9:9-12.
23
Deuteronomy 5:23
简体中文
这几节比 Exodus 20:18-21 的简略记述，更详尽地叙述了那些事件。这里重要的是叫人注意：摩西承担神与人之间传达的管道，乃是应百姓的恳求。神在 Deuteronomy 5:28 称许了百姓的请求，因为这请求表明他们自觉不配与神直接相交。西奈的威严已尽了它的功用；它唤醒了罪的意识。
英文原文
These verses contain a much fuller narrative of the events briefly described in Exodus 20:18-21. Here it is important to call attention to the fact that it was on the entreaties of the people that Moses had taken on him to be the channel of communication between God and them. God approved Deuteronomy 5:28 the request of the people, because it showed a feeling of their own unworthiness to enter into direct communion with God. The terrors of Sinai had done their work; they had awakened the consciousness of sin.
“祖宗”如同 Deuteronomy 4:37 中一样，是指列祖亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各。神确曾与他们立约，但并不是现在所论的这约。这后来在西奈山由全民作为国民所立的约，其责任落在摩西此刻说话之人的时代与世代身上。
