8. 銅洗濯盆……是用會幕門前伺候之婦人的鏡子做的——應當譯作「鏡子」,因為那些器皿——通常為圓形、鑲嵌在木、石或金屬的柄中——是用高度拋光的銅、銀或青銅製成的〔WILKINSON〕。埃及婦女慣常攜帶鏡子到廟宇去;摩西取去希伯來婦人的鏡子,是為了使他們無法在會幕效法類似的做法,還是因為營中其他來源的銅已耗盡,不得而知;但我們得知她們如何熱烈地、大量地交出那些女性妝飾所珍視的附屬品,實令人感動。
聚集……在門口的婦人——不是女祭司,而是具有敬虔品格與影響力的婦女,她們經常到聖所的院中
(路 2:37),
她們交出鏡子,正如拿細耳人之剪髮,是她們在一段時期內棄絕世俗〔HENGSTENBERG〕。
英文原文
8. laver of brass . . . of the looking glasses of the women--The word mirrors should have been used, as those implements, usually round, inserted into a handle of wood, stone, or metal, were made of brass, silver, or bronze, highly polished [WILKINSON]. It was customary for the Egyptian women to carry mirrors with them to the temples; and whether by taking the looking glasses of the Hebrew women Moses designed to put it out of their power to follow a similar practice at the tabernacle, or whether the supply of brass from other sources in the camp was exhausted, it is interesting to learn how zealously and to a vast extent they surrendered those valued accompaniments of the female toilet.
of the women assembling . . . at the door--not priestesses but women of pious character and influence, who frequented the courts of the sacred building
(Lu 2:37),
and whose parting with their mirrors, like the cutting the hair of the Nazarites, was their renouncing the world for a season [HENGSTENBERG].

9. 帷子——帷子圈出一塊一百五十英呎乘七十五英呎的空間,以約八英呎高的細麻布帷子圍起,懸掛在銅柱子上。那些帷子以固定在頂部的杆子穩固,並以釘在地上的栓子保持伸展。
英文原文
9. the court--It occupied a space of one hundred and fifty feet by seventy-five, and it was enclosed by curtains of fine linen about eight feet high, suspended on brazen or copper pillars. Those curtains were secured by rods fastened to the top, and kept extended by being fastened to pins stuck in the ground.

英文原文
10. hooks--The hooks of the pillars in the court were for hanging up the carcasses of the sacrificial beasts--those on the pillars at the entry of the tabernacle were for hanging the sacerdotal robes and other things used in the service.

18. the height in the breadth--or, "in the measure." The sense is that the hangings of the court gate, which was twenty cubits wide, were of the same height as the hangings all round the court [WALL].

21. 這是會幕的數目——這位受啟示的史家在完成了會幕各組成部分的描述之後,轉而陳述其中所用的金銀,這核算是照摩西的命令、由利未人在亞倫幼子以他瑪的指揮下進行的。
英文原文
21. This is the sum of the tabernacle--Having completed his description of the component parts of the tabernacle, the inspired historian digresses into a statement respecting the gold and silver employed in it, the computation being made according to an order of Moses--by the Levites, under the direction of Ithamar, Aaron's youngest son.

24. 二十九他連得零七百三十舍客勒——折合約一萬五千英鎊。
英文原文
24. twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels--equivalent to £150,00 sterling.

25. 被數之人的銀子——六十萬零三千五百五十名男丁,每人半舍客勒,共計三十萬零一千七百七十五舍客勒;每舍客勒合英幣二先令四便士,總計約三萬五千二百零七英鎊。以色列人在曠野中竟擁有如此多的財富,似乎令人難以想像;但須知他們先因埃及人的財物致富,其後又因亞瑪力人的擄物增添。此外,在他們寄居期間,與曠野邊境的鄰國通商貿易,亦極有可能〔HEWLETT〕。
英文原文
25. the silver of them that were numbered--603,550 men at half a shekel each would contribute 301,775 shekels; which at 2s. 4d. each, amounts to £35,207 sterling. It may seem difficult to imagine how the Israelites should be possessed of so much wealth in the desert; but it should be remembered that they were enriched first by the spoils of the Egyptians, and afterwards by those of the Amalekites. Besides, it is highly probable that during their sojourn they traded with the neighboring nations who bordered on the wilderness [HEWLETT].
