简体中文
英文原文
Zec 5:1-4.
SIXTH VISION. THE FLYING ROLL. The fraudulent and perjuring transgressors of the law shall be extirpated from Judea.
1. flying roll--of papyrus, or dressed skins, used for writing on when paper was not known. It was inscribed with the words of the curse
(De 27:15-26; 28:15-68).
Being written implied that its contents were beyond all escape or repeal
(Eze 2:9).
Its "flying" shows that its curses were ready swiftly to visit the transgressors. It was unrolled, or else its dimensions could not have been seen
(Zec 5:2).
Being open to all, none could say in excuse he knew not the law and the curses of disobedience. As the previous visions intimated God's favor in restoring the Jewish state, so this vision announces judgment, intimating that God, notwithstanding His favor, did not approve of their sins. Being written on both sides, "on this and on that side"
(Zec 5:3)
[VATABLUS] connects it with the two tables of the law
(Ex 32:15),
and implies its comprehensiveness. One side denounced "him that sweareth falsely
(Zec 5:4)
by God's name," according to the third commandment of the first table, duty to God; the other side denounced theft, according to the eighth commandment, which is in the second table, duty to one's neighbor.

2. 长……二十肘……宽……十肘——即三十英尺乘十五英尺，正是圣殿廊子的尺寸（1Ki 6:3），律法通常在那里宣读，表明它在神政国中具有属灵的权威。其巨大的尺寸暗示所含咒诅之多。希伯来文中"书卷"或"册"一词也用于律法（Ps 40:7）。
英文原文
2. length . . . twenty cubits . . . breadth . . . ten cubits--thirty feet by fifteen, the dimensions of the temple porch
(1Ki 6:3),
where the law was usually read, showing that it was divinely authoritative in the theocracy. Its large size implies the great number of the curses contained. The Hebrew for "roll" or "volume" is used of the law
(Ps 40:7).

3. 咒诅……遍地——（Mal 4:6）。外邦人也服在律法的咒诅之下，因为他们只要有未烙惯败坏的良心，律法的要旨就写在心上（Ro 2:15）。
剪除——字面作"清除"。
这边……那边——指书卷的两面【瓦塔布卢VATABLUS】。从此处……从此处（重复两次，如"房屋"在 Zec 5:4 重复）【毛勒MAURER】；如此处的"这里"，Ge 37:17（或"这面那面"，即四面八方）【亨德森HENDERSON】。无人能逃脱，无论在何处犯罪：因为神必从这一头到那一头，毫无例外地召一切人到审判台前【加尔文CALVIN】。神犯罪时连"这地方"耶路撒冷也必不放过【彭贝卢PEMBELLUS】。英文译本似采瓦塔布卢之说。
按卷上所写——照所写的而行。
英文原文
3. curse . . . earth--
(Mal 4:6).
The Gentiles are amenable to the curse of the law, as they have its substance, so far as they have not seared and corrupted conscience, written on their hearts
(Ro 2:15).
cut off--literally, "cleared away."
as on this side . . . as on that side--both sides of the roll [VATABLUS]. From this place . . . from this place (repeated twice, as "the house" is repeated in
Zec 5:4)
[MAURER]; so "hence" is used,
Ge 37:17
(or, "on this and on that side," that is, on every side) [HENDERSON]. None can escape, sin where he may: for God from one side to the other shall call all without exception to judgment [CALVIN]. God will not spare even "this place," Jerusalem, when it sins [PEMBELLUS]. English Version seems to take VATABLUS' view.
according to it--according as it is written.

4. 此处直接所指的"偷窃"，与 Ne 13:10; Mal 3:8 所抱怨的类似亵渎圣物之罪相似。他们建造自己的房屋时，却疏于建造神的殿，未将当纳的归给神，便等于抢夺了神，背弃了对祂的誓约；因此他们所建的"房屋"必被神的"咒诅"所"灭尽"。可能字面的偷窃与起假誓也伴随着他们对神殿实质上的偷窃与假誓（Mal 3:5）。偷窃与假誓相伴；因为贪婪欺诈之人借神的名起假誓毫无顾忌（参 Pr 30:9）。
进入……房屋——招惹咒诅的人，无论怎样守卫、关闭自己都是徒然；咒诅必在他们自以为最安稳之时进入。
灭尽……木料……石头——片甲不留。麻风病人（罪人的预表）之家的"石头"与"木头"也要全然除掉（Le 14:15; 参 1Ki 18:38）。
英文原文
4. The "theft" immediately meant is similar sacrilege to that complained of in
Ne 13:10; Mal 3:8.
They robbed God by neglecting to give Him His due in building His house, while they built their own houses, forswearing their obligations to Him; therefore, the "houses" they build shall be "consumed" with God's "curse." Probably literal theft and perjury accompanied their virtual theft and perjury as to the temple of God
(Mal 3:5).
Stealing and perjury go together; for the covetous and fraudulent perjure themselves by God's name without scruple (see
Pr 30:9).
enter . . . the house--In vain they guard and shut themselves up who incur the curse; it will inevitably enter even when they think themselves most secure.
consume . . . timber . . . stones--not leaving a vestige of it. So the "stones" and "timber" of the house of a leper (type of the sinner) were to be utterly removed
(Le 14:15;
compare
1Ki 18:38).

简体中文
Zec 5:5-11.
第七个异象。量器中的妇人。
罪恶与偶像崇拜从圣地被迁到巴比伦，在那里与其同类元素相混。
伊法（ephah）是希伯来的干量单位，约合一蒲式耳，即七点五加仑。暗指前一异象所论的偷窃与起假誓：他们用以欺诈而篡改的量器伊法，将成为刑罚他们的工具【格罗丢GROTIUS】。参"这是他们的形状"（Zec 5:6），即这是犹太人所行的代表，也是他们必受之苦的代表。当他们罪恶的量（伊法所暗指）满盈之时，他们全体的分散（"示拿地"是他们现今分散于各外邦之地的象征）在此被预言。前一异象宣告对个人的审判；此异象宣告对整体国家的审判：但以隐晦的方式，免得使他们现今的建造灰心【彭贝卢PEMBELLUS】。更当说，这异象在前一异象之后是安慰性的【加尔文CALVIN】。偶像崇拜及其同类之罪——贪婪与欺诈（书卷的异象中所定罪的）——将远迁出圣地，归到其本类的土壤，永不再返回（如 Zec 3:9; Isa 27:9; 52:1; 60:21; Jer 50:20; Zep 3:13）。两千多年来，自巴比伦被掳以来，犹太人已脱离偶像崇拜；但这预言的完全应验尚在未来，届时一切罪将从归回巴勒斯坦并归向基督的以色列中得洁净。
5. 出来——解说的天使在书卷异象之后退去，为要从属神的使者领受新的启示，再传给先知。
英文原文
Zec 5:5-11.
SEVENTH VISION. THE WOMAN IN THE EPHAH. Wickedness and idolatry removed from the Holy Land to Babylon, there to mingle with their kindred elements.
The ephah is the Hebrew dry measure containing about a bushel, or seven and a half gallons. Alluding to the previous vision as to theft and perjury: the ephah which, by falsification of the measure, they made the instrument of defrauding, shall be made the instrument of their punishment [GROTIUS]. Compare "this is their resemblance"
(Zec 5:6),
that is, this is a representation of what the Jews have done, and what they shall suffer. Their total dispersion ("the land of Shinar" being the emblem of the various Gentile lands of their present dispersion) is herein fortetold, when the measure (to which the ephah alludes) of their sins should be full. The former vision denounces judgment on individuals; this one, on the whole state: but enigmatically, not to discourage their present building [PEMBELLUS]. Rather, the vision is consolatory after the preceding one [CALVIN]. Idolatry and its kindred sins, covetousness and fraud (denounced in the vision of the roll), shall be removed far out of the Holy Land to their own congenial soil, never to return (so
Zec 3:9; Isa 27:9; 52:1; 60:21; Jer 50:20; Zep 3:13).
For more than two thousand years, ever since the Babylonian exile, the Jews have been free from idolatry; but the full accomplishment of the prophecy is yet future, when all sin shall be purged from Israel on their return to Palestine, and conversion to Christ.
5. went forth--The interpreting angel had withdrawn after the vision of the roll to receive a fresh revelation from the Divine Angel to communicate to the prophet.

6. 这是他们的形状——字面作"眼"（参 Eze 1:4, 5, 16）。亨斯滕贝格（HENGSTENBERG）译为"他们（百姓的）眼"全偏向邪恶。但英文译本更佳。"这是犹太人在全地（非如英文译本译"全地/earth"）中的形状（即形像）"，即恶犹太人的形状。
这——此处指伊法里头的东西，而非伊法本身。
英文原文
6. This is their resemblance--literally, "eye" (compare
Eze 1:4, 5, 16).
HENGSTENBERG translates, "Their (the people's) eye" was all directed to evil. But English Version is better. "This is the appearance (that is, an image) of the Jews in all the land" (not as English Version, "in all the earth"), that is, of the wicked Jews.
This--Here used of what was within the ephah, not the ephah itself.

7. 举起来——盖子从伊法上举起，让先知看见其中的"罪恶"的人格化身，她即将从犹大被迁走。盖子既"是铅的"，表明那"妇人"无法逃脱这压住她的重担。
圆铅——字面作"圆块"：故为一他连得，即一百二十五金衡磅的重量。
妇人——将"罪恶"比作妇人，参 Pr 2:16; 5:3, 4。人格化抽象概念时用阴性，因生育生命之意与妇人相连。
英文原文
7. lifted up--The cover is lifted off the ephah to let the prophet see the female personification of "wickedness" within, about to be removed from Judea. The cover being "of lead," implies that the "woman" cannot escape from the ponderous load which presses her down.
talent--literally, "a round piece": hence a talent, a weight of one hundred twenty-five pounds troy.
woman--for comparison of "wickedness" to a woman,
Pr 2:16; 5:3, 4.
In personifying abstract terms, the feminine is used, as the idea of giving birth to life is associated with woman.

8. 罪恶——字面作"那罪恶"：暗示罪恶在其特殊发展中。参"那罪人"，2Th 2:3。
扔在其中——即把"罪恶"这妇人——在沉重的盖子部分揭开时曾较自由活动——扔进去。
圆石——字面作"石头"，即圆块。
英文原文
8. wickedness--literally, "the wickedness": implying wickedness in its peculiar development. Compare "the man of sin,"
2Th 2:3.
cast it--that is, her, Wickedness, who had moved more freely while the heavy lid was partially lifted off.
weight--literally, "stone," that is, round mass.

9. 搬走那"妇人"的使者，为与意象一致，是"妇人"。神使恶人自己成为刑罚与除掉罪恶的使者。用"两个"，因一个不足以担此重负【毛勒MAURER】。或说是亚述人和巴比伦人，他们分别借以色列与犹大之人将偶像崇拜掳去【亨德森HENDERSON】。正如两个"受膏者"（Zec 4:14）侍立在主旁为祂的使者，照样两个有翅膀的妇人在此执行祂除掉"罪恶"化身的旨意：与"不法的奥秘"相应（撒迦利亚书此处的七十士译本所用的词与保罗及"罪人"相同，主必以口中的气与降临的荣光废掉他，2Th 2:3, 7, 8）。她们的"翅膀"表迅捷。"鹳鸟"翅膀长而宽，故特加指定；且它是候鸟。"风"助翅膀迅速飞动。"在天地之间举起"暗示审判在众人眼前公开执行。这里的"妇人"既被迁到巴比伦为其居所，照样约翰启示录中的妇人是巴比伦（Re 17:3-5）。
英文原文
9. The agents to carry away the "woman" are, consistently with the image, "women." God makes the wicked themselves the agents of punishing and removing wickedness. "Two" are employed, as one is not enough to carry such a load [MAURER]. Or, the Assyrians and Babylonians, who carried away idolatry in the persons, respectively, of Israel and Judah [HENDERSON]. As two "anointed ones"
(Zec 4:14)
stand by the Lord as His ministers, so two winged women execute His purpose here in removing the embodiment of "wickedness": answering to the "mystery of iniquity" (the Septuagint here in Zechariah uses the same words as Paul and "the man of sin," whom the Lord shall destroy with the spirit of His mouth and the brightness of His coming,
2Th 2:3, 7, 8).
Their "wings" express velocity. The "stork" has long and wide wings, for which reason it is specified; also it is a migratory bird. The "wind" helps the rapid motion of the wings. The being "lifted up between heaven and earth" implies open execution of the judgment before the eyes of all. As the "woman" here is removed to Babylon as her own dwelling, so the woman in the Apocalypse of St. John is Babylon
(Re 17:3-5).

11. 在……示拿地建造……房屋——即巴比伦（Ge 10:10），与神对抗的世界王国之首，故泛指不虔之所在。正如犹太人自己在巴比伦"建造房屋"（Jer 29:5, 28）表明他们长久的被掳，在那里为"罪恶"建造房屋则意味着其长久的居留。
安置……在自己的基础上——如安在其本位而固定。"罪恶"既被逐出犹大，就必永远与那反基督的叛教者（巴比伦是其预表）同住，他们必收割其当得的恶果。
英文原文
11. To build . . . house in . . . Shinar--Babylonia
(Ge 10:10),
the capital of the God-opposed world kingdoms, and so representing in general the seat of irreligion. As the "building of houses" in Babylon
(Jer 29:5, 28)
by the Jews themselves expressed their long exile there, so the building of an house for "wickedness" there implies its permanent stay.
set . . . upon her own base--fixed there as in its proper place. "Wickedness" being cast out of Judah, shall for ever dwell with the antichristian apostates (of whom Babylon is the type), who shall reap the fruit of it, which they deserve.
Zec 5:1-4.
第六个异象。飞行的书卷。
违背律法、行欺诈与起假誓的恶人必从犹大被根除。
1. 飞行的书卷——是纸草或硝制过的皮卷，在纸张尚不为人知时用以书写。其上写着咒诅的话（De 27:15-26; 28:15-68）。之所以用文字写下，意味其内容无可逃脱、无可撤销（Eze 2:9）。其"飞行"表明其咒诅随时迅速地临到犯罪者。它是展开的，否则其尺寸无法被看见（Zec 5:2）。因它向众人敞开，无人能以不知律法和不顺从的咒诅为借口。先前的异象暗示神在复兴犹太国上施恩，此异象则宣告审判，表明神虽施恩却不悦纳他们的罪。它两面都写着，"这面那面"（Zec 5:3）【瓦塔布卢VATABLUS】将它与两块法版相联（Ex 32:15），暗示其包罗万象。一面照第一块法版的第三条诫命——对神当尽的本分——定"指神的名起假誓"（Zec 5:4）之罪；另一面照第二块法版的第八条诫命——对邻舍当尽的本分——定偷窃之罪。
