Deuteronomy 5:3
繁體中文
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
繁體中文
請比較 Exodus 20 及其註釋。
摩西在此以十誡為根基，從而展開他的責備、警戒與勸勉；他重述十誡時，帶有相當程度的自由與因應調整。我們的主（Mark 10:19）與保羅（Ephesians 6:2-3）處理同一主題的方式也相似。然而，發言者與聽眾都承認這些律法具有法定而權威的定式；由於雙方對它都耳熟能詳，便無需逐字逐句精確複述。
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
繁體中文
遵守安息日、容僕婢得休息的勸勉（參 Exodus 23:12），藉著提醒百姓自己從前也曾為僕而更加有力。在埃及為奴及其得蒙拯救，並不是安息日設立的根據——安息日的起源遠為古老（見 Genesis 2:3）——而是作為宗教上遵守這制度的動機。出埃及乃是從為奴之家的勞苦進入安息，而且據信實際發生於安息日、即「休息」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
繁體中文
這裏附加於遵守第五誡的普遍亨通之福，並非對應許的實質增添，只是將其表達加以擴充而已。
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
繁體中文
「田地」是在平行經文出 20:17所具體禁止的物件清單上添上的。這增添，在一位說話時直接想到將迦南分給聽眾的人而言，顯得十分自然。
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
繁體中文
此外並沒有添別的話——意即神不再用那大聲音直接向百姓說話，其餘的一切傳達都是藉著摩西向他們說的。這獨特而莊嚴的現象，加上隨後神用手指將十誡刻在兩塊石版上的事，不僅標誌神律法整體的聖潔，更標誌十誡本身相比摩西其餘律例的特殊卓越性和永久約束力。賜下兩塊石版，是等到摩西在山上過了四十晝夜之後才發生的，這從申 9:9-12較詳盡的記載可以看出。
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
繁體中文
這幾節對出 20:18-21簡略記述的事件作了詳細得多的敘述。這裏值得注意的重要事實是：摩西承擔神與百姓之間傳話中保的職分，是出於百姓的懇求。神在申 5:28認可了百姓的請求，因為這表明他們自覺不配與神直接相交。西乃的威嚴已完成了它的工；它喚醒了罪的意識。
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.
「列祖」如 Deuteronomy 4:37 裏的一樣，指族長亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各。神確曾與他們立約，卻不是如今所論的這一個約。這較後的約，是民族以民族身分在西乃山所立的；這約的責任，落在摩西此刻說話對象的日子與世代身上。
