Ac 5:1-11.
英文原文
Ac 5:1-11.
ANANIAS AND SAPPHIRA.
"The first trace of a shade upon the bright form of the young Church. Probably among the new Christians a kind of holy rivalry had sprung up, every one eager to place his means at the disposal of the apostles" [OLSHAUSEN]. Thus might the new-born zeal of some outrun their abiding principle, while others might be tempted to seek credit for a liberality which was not in their character.

2. 把价银私自留下几分，他的妻子也知道——他们筹划欺骗时的冷静，加重了这对夫妇的罪。
拿来几分——假装那是变卖的全部所得。
英文原文
2. kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it--The coolness with which they planned the deception aggravated the guilt of this couple.
brought a certain part--pretending it to be the whole proceeds of the sale.

Ac 5:3.
3-6. 为什么撒但充满了——「为何……充满」——「为何你任他充满」。
你的心——如此犯罪地接受他的提议？比较
Ac 5:4
「你为什么心里起这意念呢？」并见
Joh 13:2, 27。
欺哄圣灵——欺哄在他超自然光照之下的人。
英文原文
3-6. why hath Satan filled--"why . . . fill--"why hast thou suffered him to fill"
thine heart--so criminally entertaining his suggestion? Compare
Ac 5:4,
"why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart?" And see
Joh 13:2, 27.
to lie to the Holy Ghost--to men under His supernatural illumination.

无标题
Ac 5:4.
4. 田地还没有卖，不是你自己的吗？卖了以后，价银不是你作主吗——由此可见，为支持这初生群体而作的这一切牺牲是何等纯粹地出于自愿。
不是欺哄人，是欺哄神了——欺哄那些完全作为引导之圣灵的器皿的人。这话清楚暗示圣灵独特的位格性与固有的神性。
英文原文
4. While it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power?--from which we see how purely voluntary were all these sacrifices for the support of the infant community.
not lied to men but God--to men so entirely the instruments of the directing Spirit that the lie was rather told to Him: language clearly implying both the distinct personality and the proper divinity of the Holy Ghost.

无标题
Ac 5:5.
5. 亚拿尼亚……断了气……听见的人都甚惧怕——指基督徒圈子之外的人。他们若非发现这等假冒为善，本可贬抑主耶稣的追随者，如今却在他们中间所显明的属神临在、以及那使年轻教会能摆脱这等腐败物质的奥秘能力之前肃然起敬。
英文原文
5. Ananias . . . gave up the ghost . . . great fear came on all that heard these things--on those without the Christian circle; who, instead of disparaging the followers of the Lord Jesus, as they might otherwise have done on the discovery of such hypocrisy, were awed at the manifest presence of Divinity among them, and the mysterious power of throwing off such corrupt matter which rested upon the young Church.
6
无标题
Ac 5:6.
6. 有些少年人——教会中较年轻、较活跃的成员中的几位。不是作为职员，也不是现在首次站出来，而大概是已经自请在次要安排上服事的人。在每一个兴旺的基督徒群体中，都可指望有这样的自愿者，且会发现他们极有用。
英文原文
6. the young men--some of the younger and more active members of the church, not as office-bearers, nor coming forward now for the first time, but who probably had already volunteered their services in making subordinate arrangements. In every thriving Christian community such volunteers may be expected, and will be found eminently useful.

无标题
Ac 5:7.
7-11. 你告诉我，你们卖田地的价银就是这些吗——说出具体数目。
英文原文
7-11. Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much--naming the sum.

无标题
9. 你们为什么同心试探——（参
Ac 5:2
注释）。
主的灵——试探他们是否能逃避那全知之灵的察验；关于这灵超自然地与使徒同在，他们已有了如此充分的证据。
埋葬你丈夫之人的脚已到门口——这是何等可畏而生动的描绘！
英文原文
9. How is it that ye have agreed together--(See on
Ac 5:2).
to tempt the Spirit--try whether they could escape detection by that omniscient Spirit of whose supernatural presence with the apostles they had had such full evidence.
feet of them that buried thy husband are at the door--How awfully graphic!

10. 把她葬在她丈夫旁边——后期的犹太人在死亡之日的日落前下葬。
英文原文
10. buried her by her husband--The later Jews buried before sunset of the day of death.
11
无标题
11. 全教会……都甚惧怕等——对基督徒群体本身的这一影响，正是如此惊人的审判之主要目的；它与亚干的事有对应之处
(Jos 7:1-26)，
正如罪本身有对应之处一样；而其时间——在崭新征程的开始——也是相似的。
英文原文
11. And great fear came upon all the church, &c.--This effect on the Christian community itself was the chief design of so startling a judgment; which had its counterpart, as the sin itself had, in Achan
(Jos 7:1-26),
while the time--at the commencement of a new career--was similar.
12
Ac 5:12-26.
Ac 5:12-26.
新事业的进展导致使徒被捕——他们奇异地从监牢获释，恢复教导，却任由自己被带到公会面前。
12. 所罗门的廊——（参
Joh 10:23
注释）。
英文原文
Ac 5:12-26.
THE PROGRESS OF THE NEW CAUSE LEADS TO THE ARREST OF THE APOSTLES--THEY ARE MIRACULOUSLY DELIVERED FROM PRISON, RESUME THEIR TEACHING, BUT ALLOW THEMSELVES TO BE CONDUCTED BEFORE THE SAMHEDRIM.
12. Solomon's Porch--(See on
Joh 10:23).

无标题
13-16. 其余的人没有一个敢贴近他们等——在所发生的事之后，未归信的人没有一个敢于声称自己是门徒；但他们的数目仍持续增长。
英文原文
13-16. of the rest durst no man join himself, &c.--Of the unconverted none ventured, after what had taken place, to profess discipleship; but yet their number continually increased.
15
无标题
15. 街上——「每条街上」。
床或褥子——这些词分别指富人柔软的卧榻和穷人简陋的铺盖[BENGEL]。
影儿……或许影儿庇护他们中间一些人——参
Ac 19:12; Lu 8:46。
正如以利沙一样。如今所预言的彼得的伟大
(Mt 16:18)，
作为早期教会的引导之灵，正处于巅峰。
英文原文
15. into the streets--"in every street."
on beds and couches--The words denote the softer couches of the rich and the meaner cribs of the poor [BENGEL].
shadow of Peter . . . might overshadow some of them--Compare
Ac 19:12; Lu 8:46.
So Elisha. Now the predicted greatness of Peter
(Mt 16:18),
as the directing spirit of the early Church, was at its height.

英文原文
20. all the words of this life--beautiful expression for that Life in the Risen One which was the burden of their preaching!

21. entered into the temple, &c.--How self-possessed! the indwelling Spirit raising them above fear.
called . . . all the senate, &c.--an unusually general convention, though hastily summoned.
23
无标题
23. 监牢……关得极妥当……看守的人……站在门外，但……里面不见一人——与
Ac 16:26
的神迹恰好相反；类似于两次神奇捕鱼时渔网的对比
(Lu 5:6; Joh 21:11)。
英文原文
23. the prison . . . shut . . . keepers . . . before the doors, but . . . no man within--the reverse of the miracle in
Ac 16:26;
a similar contrast to that of the nets at the miraculous draughts of fishes
(Lu 5:6; Joh 21:11).

英文原文
26. without violence, for they feared, &c.--hardened ecclesiastics, all unawed by the miraculous tokens of God's presence with the apostles, and the fear of the mob only before their eyes!
27
Ac 5:27-42.
徒 5:27-42.
第二次在公会前出庭与作证——其怒气被迦玛列平息——被释放后，他们欢喜地离开，并继续传道。
27, 28. 你们倒把你们的道理充满了耶路撒冷——这是对他们传道功效的崇高见证，也是(因徒 4:4 注释所提的缘由)对他们见证之真实的见证——而且是出自不情愿的口唇！
英文原文
Ac 5:27-42.
SECOND APPEARANCE AND TESTIMONY BEFORE THE SAMHEDRIM--ITS RAGE CALMED BY GAMALIEL--BEING DISMISSED, THEY DEPART REJOICING, AND CONTINUE THEIR PREACHING.
27, 28. ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine--noble testimony to the success of their preaching, and (for the reason mentioned on
Ac 4:4)
to the truth of their testimony, from reluctant lips!
28
无标题
28. 你们倒想叫这人的血归到我们身上——他们避免提及彼得以之为荣、所要高举的那位的名字 [BENGEL]。
他们这样说话，似乎流露出对自己不久前所发之咒诅的不愉快回忆：「他的血归到我们，和我们的子孙身上」
(太 27:25)，
以及那叛徒丢下银钱时所说的话：「我卖了无辜之人的血是有罪了」
(太 27:4)。
英文原文
28. intend to bring this man's blood upon us--They avoid naming Him whom Peter gloried in holding up [BENGEL]. In speaking thus, they seem to betray a disagreeable recollection of their own recent imprecation, His blood be upon us," &c.

and of the traitor's words as he threw down the money, "I have sinned in that I have betrayed innocent blood"

31
无标题
31. 君王和救主——前一个词表达的是以色列人所期盼的弥赛亚之王权，后一个词表达的是他们所完全忽略的其拯救特性。我们主之工作的这两个特征彼此交融，共同构成一个荣耀的整体(参
徒 3:15； 来 2:10)。
赐——作为「君王」而施赐。
悔改和赦罪——作为「救主」而施赐；「悔改」涵盖了那导致获取「赦免」之信心的全部转变(参
徒 2:38；20:21)。
基督在此何等荣耀地被展示出来！他不像别处那样作为一切属灵祝福的媒介，而是作为其赐予者！
英文原文
31. Prince and a Saviour--the first word expressing that Royalty which all Israel looked for in Messiah, the second the Saving character of it which they had utterly lost sight of. Each of these features in our Lord's work enters into the other, and both make one glorious whole (compare
Ac 3:15; Heb 2:10).
to give--dispensing as a "Prince."
repentance and remission of sins--as a "Saviour"; "repentance" embracing all that change which issues in the faith which secures "forgiveness" (compare
Ac 2:38; 20:21).
How gloriously is Christ here exhibited; not, as in other places, as the Medium, but as the Dispenser of all spiritual blessings!

33. 极其恼怒，就——「正要」。
想要杀他们——这与五旬节那日头一批归信者口中发出「弟兄们，我们当怎样行？」
(徒 2:37)
的「扎心」之感，及其效果何等不同！
两处所用的词截然不同。
英文原文
33. cut to the heart and took--"were taking."
counsel to slay them--How different this feeling and the effect of it from that "pricking of the heart" which drew from the first converts on the day of Pentecost the cry, "Men and brethren, what shall we do?"
(Ac 2:37).
The words used in the two places are strikingly different.
34

34. 但有一个法利赛人，名叫迦玛列——极可能就是犹太著作中以智慧著称的那位同名之人，他是西面的儿子(可能就是那将婴孩救主抱在怀中的人， 路 2:25-35)， 又是另一位著名拉比希勒利的孙子。他在耶路撒冷被毁前十八年去世 [LIGHTFOOT]。
就是众百姓所敬重的教法师，站起来吩咐人把使徒暂且带到外面去
英文原文
34. Then stood up . . . Gamaliel--in all probability one of that name celebrated in the Jewish writings for his wisdom, the son of Simeon (possibly the same who took the infant Saviour in his arms,
Lu 2:25-35),

35-39. 丢大——并非约瑟夫所提到的那位在此后约十二年领导叛乱的同名骗子 [《犹太古史》 20.5.1]，
而是他没有提到的另一位。这样的叛乱时常发生。
英文原文
35-39. Theudas--not the same with a deceiver of that name whom JOSEPHUS mentions as heading an insurrection some twelve years after this [Antiquities, 20.5.1], but some other of whom he makes no mention. Such insurrections were frequent.

38. 若是出于人，必要败坏——在公会当时的脾气下，这种中立的政策是真正的智慧。但个人的中立就是对基督的敌对，正如他自己所教导的
(路 11:23)。
英文原文
38. if . . . of men, it will come to naught--This neutral policy was true wisdom, in the then temper of the council. But individual neutrality is hostility to Christ, as He Himself teaches

这是他们第一次尝到逼迫的滋味，为着他——他们的主——的缘故，他们觉得甘甜。

「年轻的教会明亮形像上投下阴影的第一个迹象。也许在新归信的基督徒中兴起了一种圣洁的竞赛，人人都急于将自己的财产交由使徒处置」[OLSHAUSEN]。于是，一些人的新生热忱可能超越了他们一贯的原则，而另一些人则可能受到试探，去贪图那并不合其性情的慷慨之名。
