Exodus 27:2
英文原文
His horns shall be of the same - These horns were projections pointing upward in the form either of a small obelisk, or of the horn of an ox. They were to be actually parts of the altar, not merely superadded to it. On them the blood of the sin-offering was smeared Exodus 29:12; Leviticus 4:7; Leviticus 8:15; Leviticus 9:9; Leviticus 16:18. To take hold of them appears to have been regarded as an emphatic mode of laying claim to the supposed right of sanctuary (Exodus 21:14 note; 1 Kings 1:50).

Exodus 27:3
「盆」——更准确说是"锅"，如 Exodus 38:3；1 Kings 7:45 所载。关于这些锅在处理祭坛灰烬上的用途，见 Leviticus 1:16。
「盘子」——用来承接祭牲的血、并将其洒在坛上的器皿（见 Exodus 24:6；Leviticus 1:5 等）。
「肉叉子」——这些是为要在坛上调整祭牲各块的位置（参 1 Samuel 2:13）。
「火鼎」——同一个词在 Exodus 25:38；Exodus 37:23 译作"蜡花盘"；在 Leviticus 10:1；Leviticus 16:12；Numbers 4:14；Numbers 16:6 等处译作"香炉"。这些器具似乎是浅的金属器皿，仅用来把燃烧的炭火从铜祭坛搬到香坛。
英文原文
Pans - Rather pots as in Exodus 38:3; 1 Kings 7:45. On the use to which these pots were put in disposing of the ashes of the altar, see Leviticus 1:16.
Basons - Vessels used for receiving the blood of the victims and casting it upon the altar (see Exodus 24:6; Leviticus 1:5; etc.).
Fleshhooks - These were for adjusting the pieces of the victims upon the altar (compare 1 Samuel 2:13).
Firepans - The same word is rendered snuffdishes, Exodus 25:38; Exodus 37:23 : censers, Leviticus 10:1; Leviticus 16:12; Numbers 4:14; Numbers 16:6, etc. These utensils appear to have been shallow metal vessels which were employed merely to carry burning embers from the brazen altar to the altar of incense.

Exodus 27:5
「坛的围腰板」——一道宽度合宜的搁板或凸出的边沿，环绕祭坛，位于顶部与底部之间的一半处。它的外缘四周由一道直立、状如网状的铜栏支撑，这栏子立在地上。
英文原文
The compass of the altar - A shelf or projecting ledge, of convenient width, carried round the altar half way between the top and the base. It was supported all round its outer edge by a vertical net-like grating of bronze that rested on the ground.
8
Exodus 27:8
「用板作空心的」——更准确说是石板或厚木板，而不是"板"。这个词与用于律法石版（Exodus 24:12；Exodus 31:18）的词相同，而不同于用于会幕竖板（Exodus 26:15）的词。
铜祭坛是一个空心的框架，由坚固的皂荚木板制成，外包铜板，长宽各七英尺六英寸，高四英尺六英寸。犹太与基督教的权威都认为：当它安置妥当、准备使用时，里面填满了泥土或粗石。如果我们将这一推测与 Exodus 20:24-25 所定的关于土坛和石坛的古老规则联系起来，那么这木架构实际上可被视为祭坛的外壳，祭牲真正在其上焚烧的，是坛本身。环绕四周的围腰板（Exodus 27:5）是必需的，作为祭司的台架，使他们能在祭坛顶部方便地进行工作。因此，论到亚伦时说他"从坛上下来"（Leviticus 9:22）。按照拉比传统，南面有一道堆起来的土坡，供祭司登到台架上（参 Exodus 20:26）。
英文原文
Hollow with boards - Slabs, or planks, rather than boards. The word is that which is used for the stone tables of the law Exodus 24:12; Exodus 31:18, not that applied to the boards of the tabernacle Exodus 26:15.
The brazen altar was a hollow casing, formed of stout acacia planks covered with plates of bronze, seven feet six in length and width and four feet six in height. Jewish as well as Christian authorities have supposed that, when it was fixed for use, it was filled up with earth or rough stones. If we connect this suggestion with the old rule regarding the altar of earth and the altar of stone given in Exodus 20:24-25, the woodwork might in fact be regarded merely as the case of the altar on which the victims were actually burned. The shelf round the sides Exodus 27:5 was required as a stage for the priests to enable them to carry on their work conveniently on the top of the altar. Hence, it is said of Aaron that he came down from the altar Leviticus 9:22. According to rabbinical tradition, there was a slope of earth at the south side banked up for the priest to ascend to the stage (compare Exodus 20:26).

Exodus 27:9
「会幕的院子」——（参 Exodus 38:9-20）
Exodus 27:9
「南面，向南」——南面即在右边。见 Exodus 26:18。
英文原文
The court of the tabernacle - (Compare Exodus 38:9-20)
Exodus 27:9
The south side southward - The south side on the right. See Exodus 26:18.
10
Exodus 27:10
「带卯的座」——即底座。见 Exodus 26:19。
「银杆」——更准确说是"连接杆"；即连接柱子顶部的银质帷杆。帷子藉着银钩挂在柱子上；但柱子之间空间的长度，使得它们也极可能以某种方式固定在这些杆子上。
英文原文
Sockets - Bases. See Exodus 26:19.
Fillets - Rather, Connecting rods; curtain-rods of silver connecting the heads of the pillars. The hangings were attached to the pillars by the silver hooks; but the length of the space between the pillars would render it most probable that they were also in some way fastened to these rods.
13
Exodus 27:13
「东面，向东的那面」——即朝东的正面。
英文原文
The east side eastward - On the front side eastward.
16
Exodus 27:16
「帘子」——即入口的帘幔；与院子侧面和后面的帷子不同，它可以随意卷起或推向一旁。这些词在我们的圣经 Numbers 3:26 中得到了正确的区分。
「用绣花的手工」——即刺绣者的工艺。见 Exodus 26:36；Exodus 35:35。关于材料，见 Exodus 25:4。
英文原文
An hanging - An entrance curtain, which, unlike the hangings at the sides and back of the court, could be drawn up, or aside, at pleasure. The words are rightly distinguished in our Bible in Numbers 3:26.
Wrought with nedlework - The work of the embroiderer. See Exodus 26:36; Exodus 35:35. On the materials, see Exodus 25:4.
17
Exodus 27:17
「用银杆连络」——意即以银杆相连。见 Exodus 27:10。
英文原文
Filleted with silver - Connected with silver rods. See Exodus 27:10,
19
Exodus 27:19
「一切的器具……」——帐幕一切工程所用的各样工具，以及帐幕的一切橛子和院子的一切橛子，都要用铜做。圣所的作业工具最可能是斧、刀、锤等类，用于建造、修理、支搭和拆卸这结构物。参 Numbers 3:36。
「帐幕」——这个词在此应理解为同时包括 משׁכן mı̂shkān 与帐棚，如在 Numbers 1:51、Numbers 1:53 等处（见 Exodus 26:1 注释）。
「橛子」——即帐棚的橛子。
英文原文
All the vessels ... - All the tools of the tabernacle used in all its workmanship, and all its tent-pins, and all the tent-pins of the court, shall be of bronze. The working tools of the sanctuary were most probably such things as axes, knives, hammers, etc. that were employed in making, repairing, setting up and taking down the structure. Compare Numbers 3:36.
The tabernacle - The word is here to be taken as including both the משׁכן mı̂shkân and the tent, as in Numbers 1:51, Numbers 1:53, etc. (see Exodus 26:1 note).
The pins - tent-pins.
20
Exodus 27:20
「捣成的清橄榄油」——这油必须是最上等的。它之所以称为"捣成的"，是因为它只将橄榄放在臼中或磨中捣碎而得，不加热度。如今最上等的油也是这样从新摘的青果中取得。次等的油则是从未经拣选的果实中、以更强的压力并加热压榨而得。
「灯」——即金灯台的灯（见 Exodus 25:37）。
「点」——参页边旁注"使上升"。应当注意，这个词的本义并不是"烧毁消尽"意义上的焚烧，而是圣经惯用于表达火在献给耶和华之物上之作用的词（见 Leviticus 1:9）。
「常常」——即每夜"从晚上到早晨"。参 Exodus 30:8。
英文原文
Pure oil olive beaten - The oil was to be of the best kind. It is called beaten, because it was obtained by merely bruising the olives in a mortar or mill, without the application of heat. The finest oil is now thus obtained from young fruit freshly gathered. The inferior kind is pressed from unselected fruit under stronger pressure, and with the application of heat.
The lamp - i. e. the lamps of the golden candlestick. (See Exodus 25:37.)
To burn - See the margin "to ascend up." It should be observed that the word does not properly mean to burn in the sense of to consume, but is the word regularly used to express the action of fire upon what was offered to Yahweh (see Leviticus 1:9).
Always - i. e. every night "from evening until morning." Compare Exodus 30:8.
21
Exodus 27:21
「会幕」——更按字面直译，是“相会之帐幕”。这是此名称首次用于会幕，与之相连的观念是：耶和华与摩西相会，或与众祭司相会，或在少数情形下，与聚集在帐幕入口成为会众的百姓相会。
「在法版前的幔子外面」——意即在圣所之内（见 Exodus 25:16）。
英文原文
The tabernacle of the congregation - More literally, the tent of meeting. This is the first occurrence of this designation of the tabernacle, and the idea connected with it is that of Yahweh meeting with either Moses, or the priests, or (in a few cases) with the people gathered into a congregation at the entrance of the tent.
Without the rail, which is before the testimony - i. e. the holy place (see Exodus 25:16).
「四个角要与坛接连一块」——这些角是向上突出的凸出物，形状或如小型的方尖碑，或如公牛的角。它们应当是祭坛实际的一部分，而不是仅仅附加在上面的。赎罪祭的血要抹在角上（Exodus 29:12；Leviticus 4:7；Leviticus 8:15；Leviticus 9:9；Leviticus 16:18）。抓住坛角，似乎被视为一种强有力的方式，用以主张那所设想的庇护权（见 Exodus 21:14 注；1 Kings 1:50）。
