Nu 27:1-11.
THE DAUGHTERS OF ZELOPHEHAD ASK FOR AN INHERITANCE.
3
无标题
3. 我们的父亲死在旷野,他也不在……可拉……的党中——这声明可能是必要的,因为他的死可能恰逢那场叛乱前后;尤其是因为这些同谋者的儿女与其父一同卷入了可怕的刑罚之中,因此他们的请求显得更为合宜而有力:他们的父亲并非因任何会使家族丧命或失去产业的罪而死。
死在自己的罪中——即死于人因罪而受制于其下的普遍死亡之律。
英文原文
3. Our father died in the wilderness, and he was not . . . in the company of . . . Korah--This declaration might be necessary because his death might have occurred about the time of that rebellion; and especially because, as the children of these conspirators were involved along with their fathers in the awful punishment, their plea appeared the more proper and forcible that their father did not die for any cause that doomed his family to lose their lives or their inheritance.
died in his own sin--that is, by the common law of mortality to which men, through sin, are subject.

4. 求你们在我们父亲的弟兄中分给我们产业——那些年轻女子察觉到,各家登记入册的只有男丁。因她们家中没有男丁,她们的家室便被遗漏了。于是她们将这冤情告知摩西,以及与他一同施行审判的众官长。这案件十分重要;因女儿成为一家唯一的成员并非罕见或不寻常之事,故在神的权威之下,继承的律法不仅扩及一切类似的情形,还及于其他情形——例如物主未留儿女、也无兄弟可继其业之时。应许之地的分配即将进行;了解在这些较为罕见的情形下,律法为防止祖产外流至别支派所作的规定,颇值一观。(参
Nu 36:5)。
英文原文
4. Give unto us a possession among the brethren of our father--Those young women perceived that the males only in families had been registered in the census. Because there were none in their household, their family was omitted. So they made known their grievance to Moses, and the authorities conjoined with him in administering justice. The case was important; and as the peculiarity of daughters being the sole members of a family would be no infrequent or uncommon occurrence, the law of inheritance, under divine authority, was extended not only to meet all similar cases, but other cases also--such as when there were no children left by the proprietor, and no brothers to succeed him. A distribution of the promised land was about to be made; and it is interesting to know the legal provision made in these comparatively rare cases for preserving a patrimony from being alienated to another tribe. (See on
Nu 36:5).

摩西 得知 将死、 求立 继任者。
12. 耶和华对摩西说:你上这亚巴琳山,观看那地——虽然以色列人如今已到了应许之地的边界,摩西却未获准过约旦河,而是死在摩押山地的一座山上;这些山通称为亚巴琳
(Nu 33:47)。
他失去这大尊荣,是因他在米利巴击打磐石一事上所表现的不当之举
[Nu 20:12];
这位敬虔的领袖虽以谦柔顺服神旨,却在其恳切的祷告中显出真正爱国之心,求神立一位配得且有能的继任者
[Nu 27:15-17]。
英文原文
Nu 27:12-17.
MOSES BEING TOLD OF HIS APPROACHING DEATH, ASKS FOR A SUCCESSOR.
12. The Lord said unto Moses, Get thee up into this mount Abarim, and see the land--Although the Israelites were now on the confines of the promised land, Moses was not privileged to cross the Jordan, but died on one of the Moabitic range of mountains, to which the general name of Abarim was given
(Nu 33:47).
The privation of this great honor was owing to the unhappy conduct he had manifested in the striking of the rock at Meribah
[Nu 20:12];
and while the pious leader submitted with meek acquiescence to the divine decree, he evinced the spirit of genuine patriotism in his fervent prayers for the appointment of a worthy and competent successor
[Nu 27:15-17].

16. 愿耶和华万人之灵的神,立一人治理会众——这请求最合宜地呈达这一位格的神——他是人一切理智恩赐和道德美善的赐予者,能兴起合格的人来承担最艰巨的职责和最艰难的处境。
英文原文
16. God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation--The request was most suitably made to God in this character, as the Author of all the intellectual gifts and moral graces with which men are endowed, and who can raise up qualified persons for the most arduous duties and the most difficult situations.

约书亚 被立为 继任者。
18. 你要将嫩的儿子约书亚领来……他心中有圣灵,你要按手在他头上——此处对神圣之灵的位格作了有力的见证——按手礼是一项古时的礼仪。(参
Ge 48:14; Le 1:4; 1Ti 4:14)。
英文原文
Nu 27:18-23.
JOSHUA APPOINTED TO SUCCEED HIM.
18. Take thee Joshua . . . a man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him--A strong testimony is here borne to the personality of the divine Spirit--the imposition of hands was an ancient ceremony. (See
Ge 48:14; Le 1:4; 1Ti 4:14).

20, 21. 你要将你的尊荣给他几分——在以色列的全部历史中,直到弥赛亚显现之前,未曾兴起一位先知或统治者能在各方面与摩西相比——弥赛亚的荣耀使一切都黯然失色。但约书亚借大祭司的特别事奉,在耶和华面前借乌陵的判断为他求问,而得着高度的尊荣与资格。
英文原文
20, 21. Thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him--In the whole history of Israel there arose no prophet or ruler in all respects like unto Moses till the Messiah appeared, whose glory eclipsed all. But Joshua was honored and qualified in an eminent degree, through the special service of the high priest, who asked counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the Lord.
