Nu 29:1-40.

吹角节 的祭。

1. 七月初一日——即圣历年第七个月,但为民用历的正月,相当于我们现今的九月。事实上,这就是新年元旦,希伯来人及其他同时代民族以盛大的欢乐庆典来庆祝,并以吹号开场。这条律例的目的,是借着将这一日与若干庄严的礼仪相连,赋予这节期以宗教性质。(参

Ex 12:2; Le 23:24)。

你们要守为吹角的日子——这使其成为诸圣节的庄严预备——本月所守的节期比一年中任何其他时节都多。这节的设立虽已在前文描述,但此处对燔祭当包含什么有更为详尽的说明;此外还规定要献赎罪祭。为特定日子所指定的特别祭物,并不干扰这些日子通常当献的常献之祭,因为

Nu 29:6

明说,每日当献的祭以及每月初一日当献的祭,都要照常进行。

英文原文

Nu 29:1-40.

THE OFFERING AT THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS.

1. in the seventh month--of the ecclesiastical year, but the first month of the civil year, corresponding to our September. It was, in fact, the New Year's Day, which had been celebrated among the Hebrews and other contemporary nations with great festivity and joy and ushered in by a flourish of trumpets. This ordinance was designed to give a religious character to the occasion by associating it with some solemn observances. (Compare

Ex 12:2; Le 23:24).

it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you--This made it a solemn preparation for the sacred feasts--a greater number of which were held during this month than at any other season of the year. Although the institution of this feast was described before, there is more particularity here as to what the burnt offering should consist of; and, in addition to it, a sin offering is prescribed. The special offerings, appointed for certain days, were not to interfere with the offerings usually requisite on these days, for in

Nu 29:6

it is said that the daily offerings, as well as those for the first day of the month, were to take place in their ordinary course.

7-11. 七月初十日,你们当有圣会——这是大赎罪日。其设立连同那日当守的礼仪,已有描述

(Le 16:29, 30)。

但此处似乎提到额外的祭物,即为一般赎罪而献的大量牲祭——是献给耶和华为馨香的火祭,以及为赎那日事奉中所掺杂之罪而献的赎罪祭。本段的规定似乎是《利未记》前述记载的补充。

英文原文

7-11. ye shall have on the tenth day of this seventh month an holy convocation--This was the great day of atonement. Its institution, together with the observance to which that day was devoted, was described

(Le 16:29, 30).

But additional offerings seem to be noticed, namely, the large animal sacrifice for a general expiation, which was a sweet savor unto the Lord, and the sin offering to atone for the sins that mingled with that day's services. The prescriptions in this passage appear supplementary to the former statement in Leviticus.

12-34. 十五日——要守住棚节。(参

Le 23:34, 35)。

这节期要持续七天,首尾两日当守为安息日;每日都有特定的祭物,其细节详尽入微,正适合教会幼年时期的光景。有两点值得注意:第一,这节期所献的祭在数量和种类上都超过其他任何节期——部分因它在岁末举行,或为补足过去的一切缺欠——部分因它在收聚果类之后随即来到,理当丰厚地感恩承认——也许部分还因神顾念人的软弱:人对长期持续的此类事奉,无论是担子还是劳苦,都容易厌倦,故神使每日的负担渐减、花费渐省 [PATRICK]。第二,值得注意的是,每日的祭物以递减的比例变化。

英文原文

12-34. on the fifteenth day--was to be held the feast of booths or tabernacles. (See

Le 23:34, 35).

The feast was to last seven days, the first and last of which were to be kept as Sabbaths, and a particular offering was prescribed for each day, the details of which are given with a minuteness suited to the infant state of the church. Two things are deserving of notice: First, that this feast was distinguished by a greater amount and variety of sacrifices than any other--partly because, occurring at the end of the year, it might be intended to supply any past deficiencies--partly because, being immediately after the ingathering of the fruits, it ought to be a liberal acknowledgment--and partly, perhaps, because God consulted the weakness of mankind, who naturally grow weary both of the charge and labor of such services when they are long-continued, and made them every day less toilsome and expensive [PATRICK]. Secondly, it will be remarked that the sacrifices varied in a progressive ratio of decrease every day.

35-40. 第八日你们当有严肃会——住棚节在第八日结束,那一日是大日

(约 7:37)。

除了素常的例祭之外,那一日还指定了特别的祭,虽然这些比先前任何一日都少;又因那时有大群人为严肃的宗教目的聚集,自然也有许多自发的奉献与事奉,因此百姓的敬虔精神大有发挥的余地——既可顺服所规定的祭,也可献上甘心祭或还愿的祭。

英文原文

35-40. On the eighth day ye shall have a solemn assembly--The feast of tabernacles was brought to a close on the eighth day, which was the great day

(Joh 7:37).

Besides the common routine sacrifices, there were special offerings appointed for that day though these were fewer than on any of the preceding days; and there were also, as was natural on that occasion when vast multitudes were convened for a solemn religious purpose, many spontaneous gifts and services, so that there was full scope for the exercise of a devout spirit in the people, both for their obedience to the statutory offerings, and by the presentation of those which were made by free will or in consequence of vows.

39. 这些祭要在你们的节期献给耶和华——从本章和前一章的记述看来,每年公费献在坛上的祭——还不算大量甘心所献的许愿祭和赎愆祭——其数目如下:山羊十五只;山羊羔二十一「这里仍照原文译」;公绵羊七十二只;公牛一百三十二只;羊羔一千一百零一只;合计公费所献的牲畜为一千二百四十一只。这当然不包括逾越节所宰的大量羊羔;据约瑟夫记载,后期某年逾越节所宰的羊羔竟达二十五万五千六百只之多。

英文原文

39. These things ye shall do unto the Lord in your set feasts--From the statements made in this and the preceding chapter, it appears that the yearly offerings made to the altar at the public expense, without taking into account a vast number of voluntary vow and trespass offerings, were calculated at the following amount:--goats, fifteen; kids, twenty-one; rams, seventy-two; bullocks, one hundred thirty-two; lambs, 1,101; sum-total of animals sacrificed at public cost, 1,241. This, of course, is exclusive of the prodigious addition of lambs slain at the passover, which in later times, according to JOSEPHUS, amounted in a single year to the immense number of 255,600.
