Isa 27:1-13.
英文原文
Isa 27:1-13.
CONTINUATION OF THE TWENTY-FOURTH, TWENTY-FIFTH, AND TWENTY-SIXTH CHAPTERS.
At the time when Israel shall be delivered, and the ungodly nations punished, God shall punish also the great enemy of the Church.
1. sore--rather, "hard," "well-tempered."
leviathan--literally, in Arabic, "the twisted animal," applicable to every great tenant of the waters, sea-serpents, crocodiles, &c. In
Eze 29:3; 32:2; Da 7:1, &c. Re 12:3,
&c., potentates hostile to Israel are similarly described; antitypically and ultimately Satan is intended
(Re 20:10).
piercing--rigid [LOWTH]. Flying [MAURER and Septuagint]. Long, extended, namely, as the crocodile which cannot readily bend back its body [HOUBIGANT].
crooked--winding.
dragon--Hebrew, tenin; the crocodile.
sea--the Euphrates, or the expansion of it near Babylon.

无标题
2. 当那日利维坦被毁灭之时,葡萄园
(诗 80:8),
即神的教会,既已除去瑕疵,在神眼中必成为可爱的;为更好显明此意,LOWTH 藉更改一希伯来文字母,将"红酒"读作"愉悦"、"可爱"。
歌唱——即一首回应之歌[LOWTH]。
论——更准确地说,应作"关于她"(见
赛 5:1
的注释);
即犹太国[MAURER]。
英文原文
2. In that day when leviathan shall be destroyed, the vineyard
(Ps 80:8),
the Church of God, purged of its blemishes, shall be lovely in God's eyes; to bring out this sense the better, LOWTH, by changing a Hebrew letter, reads "pleasant," "lovely," for "red wine."
sing--a responsive song [LOWTH].
unto her--rather, "concerning her" (see on
Isa 5:1);
namely, the Jewish state [MAURER].

无标题
3. 免得人损害它——即攻击它[MAURER]。"免得她有所缺"[HORSLEY]。
英文原文
3. lest any hurt it--attack it [MAURER]. "Lest aught be wanting in her" [HORSLEY].
4
无标题
4. 我心中不存愤怒——即我不再对我的葡萄园怀怒。
谁肯为我……摆列——即愿我有荆棘等(恶敌;
赛 9:18; 10:17; 撒下 23:6)
在我面前!"我必从其中过去",更确切为"攻击他们"。
英文原文
4. Fury is not in me--that is, I entertain no longer anger towards my vine.
who would set . . . in battle--that is, would that I had the briers, &c. (the wicked foe;
Isa 9:18; 10:17; 2Sa 23:6),
before me! "I would go through," or rather, "against them."
5
无标题
5. 或——即否则;这是以色列仇敌若想免于"一同烧灭"的唯一出路。
力量——更确切为"我所提供的避难所"[MAURER]。"持守"指坛角,逃亡者常抓住坛角作为庇护
(王上 1:50; 2:28)。
耶稣是神的"力量",即"避难所",罪人必须归向他并抓住他,才能与神和好
(赛 45:24; 罗 5:1; 弗 2:14;
参
伯 22:21)。
英文原文
5. Or--Else; the only alternative, if Israel's enemies wish to escape being "burnt together."
strength--rather, "the refuge which I afford" [MAURER]. "Take hold," refers to the horns of the altar which fugitives often laid hold of as an asylum
(1Ki 1:50; 2:28).
Jesus is God's "strength," or "refuge" which sinners must repair to and take hold of, if they are to have "peace" with God
(Isa 45:24; Ro 5:1; Eph 2:14;
compare
Job 22:21).
6
无标题
6. 他——指耶和华。主论其葡萄园的歌
(赛 27:2-5)
到此结束;先知在同一葡萄树的比喻下印证歌中的情意(参
诗 92:13-15; 何 14:5, 6)。
以色列……充满……世界——
(罗 11:12)。
英文原文
6. He--Jehovah. Here the song of the Lord as to His vineyard
(Isa 27:2-5)
ends; and the prophet confirms the sentiment in the song, under the same image of a vine (compare
Ps 92:13-15; Ho 14:5, 6).
Israel . . . fill . . . world--
(Ro 11:12).
7
无标题
7. 他……那些人——以色列——以色列的仇敌。神惩罚他的百姓,是否像惩罚他所用以管教以色列的那些仇敌一样严厉?绝非如此!以色列经过试炼之后,他必恢复;以色列的仇敌终必被他全然毁灭。
被他所杀者的杀戮——更当为"岂可照着被杀之敌的杀戮而杀戮以色列呢?"即照着杀敌之杀戮[MAURER]。
英文原文
7. him . . . those--Israel--Israel's enemies. Has God punished His people as severely as He has those enemies whom He employed to chastise Israel? No! Far from it. Israel, after trials, He will restore; Israel's enemies He will utterly destroy at last.
the slaughter of them that are slain by him--rather, "Is Israel slain according to the slaughter of the enemy slain?" the slaughter wherewith the enemy is slain [MAURER].
8
无标题
8. 相宜地——即不过分;适可而止
(伯 23:6; 诗 6:1; 耶 10:24;30:11;46:28)。
发岀——比喻取自葡萄树;更当为从比喻转为实事本身:"当她被遣去(即以色列被掳;
赛 50:1,
神本可公正地将淫妇处死,却只是把她休了),你就惩治她"[GESENIUS]。
制止——更当如旁注,"当他以狂风在白昼将它刮去时"等。
东风——在东方尤其猛烈
(伯 27:21; 耶 18:17)。
英文原文
8. In measure--not beyond measure; in moderation
(Job 23:6; Ps 6:1; Jer 10:24; 30:11; 46:28).
when it shooteth--image from the vine; rather, passing from the image to the thing itself, "when sending her away (namely, Israel to exile;
Isa 50:1,
God only putting the adulteress away when He might justly have put her to death), Thou didst punish her" [GESENIUS].
stayeth--rather, as Margin, "when He removeth it by His rough wind in the day," &c.
east wind--especially violent in the East
(Job 27:21; Jer 18:17).

无标题
9. 借此——以色列的被掳(「打发」,
赛 27:8)。
除净——赎去[HORSLEY]。
全部果子——这是惩治所要带来的全部益处;即除去他(以色列)的罪(即偶像崇拜之物; 申 9:21; 何 10:8)。
他——耶和华;借尼布甲尼撒毁灭耶路撒冷时,他是器皿。此后犹太人一直厌恶偶像崇拜(比较
赛 17:8)。
不再立起——不再起来[HORSLEY]。
英文原文
9. By this--exile of Israel (the "sending away,"
Isa 27:8).
purged--expiated [HORSLEY].
all the fruit--This is the whole benefit designed to be brought about by the chastisement; namely, the removal of his (Israel's) sin (namely, object of idolatry;
De 9:21; Ho 10:8).
when he--Jehovah; at the destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar, His instrument. The Jews ever since have abhorred idolatry (compare
Isa 17:8).
not stand up--shall rise no more [HORSLEY].
10
无标题
10. 城——耶路撒冷;其祭坛和偶像被打碎的事在
赛 27:9
中已提及(比较
赛 24:10-12)。
牛犊吃草——
(赛 17:2);
它要成为广大的荒野牧场。

(赛 27:2,6)。
英文原文

calf feed--
(Isa 17:2);
it shall be a vast wild pasture.
branches--resuming the image of the vine
(Isa 27:2,6).
11
无标题
11. 枝条……折断——如此犹太人被称为
(罗 11:17, 19, 20)。
点火——当作柴烧;特别提到「妇人」,因收集柴火和生火做饭大概是其职责。
无聪明——关于神的作为
(申 32:28, 29; 耶 5:21; 何 4:6)。
英文原文
11. boughs . . . broken off--so the Jews are called
(Ro 11:17, 19, 20).
set . . . on fire--burn them as fuel; "women" are specified, as probably it was their office to collect fuel and kindle the fire for cooking.
no understanding--as to the ways of God
(De 32:28, 29; Jer 5:21; Ho 4:6).
12
无标题
12. 犹太人从分散中被召回,以从树上摇下果子并收集的意象描述。
打——如果子用棍从树上打下
(申 24:20),
然后收取。
大河——幼发拉底河。
埃及大河——在巴勒斯坦与埃及的交界
(民 34:5; 书 15:4, 47),
现称瓦迪阿里什。耶和华的葡萄园——以色列——按其旨意从尼罗河延伸至幼发拉底河
(王上 4:21, 24; 诗 72:8)。
一个一个——最仔细地收取,不仅作为一个国民,而是作为个人。
英文原文

beat off--as fruit beaten off a tree with a stick
(De 24:20),
and then gathered.
river--Euphrates.
stream of Egypt--on the confines of Palestine and Egypt
(Nu 34:5; Jos 15:4, 47),
now Wady-el-Arish, Jehovah's vineyard, Israel, extended according to His purpose from the Nile to the Euphrates
(1Ki 4:21, 24; Ps 72:8).
one by one--gathered most carefully, not merely as a nation, but as individuals.
13
无标题
13. 大角——取自七月初一吹角召集百姓守圣会的意象
(利 23:24)。
预表性地,即福音的号筒
(启 11:15; 14:6),
犹太人在末世必听从
(亚 12:10; 13:1)。
如正月的逾越节对应基督的钉十字架,照样同在七月的赎罪日和与住棚节相连的「拯救」之意,对应他第二次来时救赎的加冕;因此救赎在
林前 1:30
中放在最后。
亚述——十支派被掳之地;主要指巴比伦,那时亚述属于它;两支派被恢复,一些十支派的人跟随他们。然而「亚述」是特意使用,最终指向十支派完全的将来复兴——至今尚未实现
(耶 3:18)。
埃及——许多人在巴比伦之囚时逃往之地
(耶 41:17, 18)。
比较将来的复兴
赛 11:11, 12, 16; 51:9-16(
「拉哈伯」即埃及)。
英文原文
13. great trumpet--image from the trumpets blown on the first day of the seventh month to summon the people to a holy convocation
(Le 23:24).
Antitypically, the gospel trumpet
(Re 11:15; 14:6)
which the Jews shall hearken to in the last days
(Zec 12:10; 13:1).
As the passover in the first month answers to Christ's crucifixion, so the day of atonement and the idea of "salvation" connected with the feast of tabernacles in the same seventh month, answer to the crowning of "redemption" at His second coming; therefore redemption is put last in
1Co 1:30.
Assyria--whither the ten tribes had been carried; Babylonia is mainly meant, to which Assyria at that time belonged; the two tribes were restored, and some of the ten accompanied them. However, "Assyria" is designedly used to point ultimately to the future restoration of the ten fully, never yet accomplished
(Jer 3:18).
Egypt--whither many had fled at the Babylonish captivity
(Jer 41:17, 18).
Compare as to the future restoration,
Isa 11:11, 12, 16; 51:9-16
("Rahab" being Egypt).
赛 27:1-13。
第二十四、二十五、二十六章的延续。
当以色列蒙拯救、不虔之邦受罚之时,神也要刑罚教会的大敌。
1. 刚硬——更准确地说,应作"坚硬"、"经过锻炼的"。
鳄鱼——字面在阿拉伯文中作"扭曲的动物",可指水中一切大型生物,如海蛇、鳄鱼等。在
结 29:3;32:2; 但 7:1
等处,以及
启 12:3
等处,与以色列为敌的掌权者也如此被描述;就 antitype 与最终意义而言,乃指撒但
(启 20:10)。
快行的——刚硬[LOWTH]。飞行的[MAURER 与七十士译本]。长的、伸展的,即如鳄鱼身体不易弯回[HOUBIGANT]。
曲行的——蜿蜒的。
蛇——希伯来文 tenin;即鳄鱼。
海——即幼发拉底河,或其在巴比伦附近的宽阔水域。
