Eze 43:1-27.
繁體中文
英文原文
Eze 43:1-27.
JEHOVAH'S RETURN TO THE TEMPLE.
Everything was now ready for His reception. As the Shekinah glory was the peculiar distinction of the old temple, so it was to be in the new in a degree as much more transcendent as the proportions of the new exceeded those of the old. The fact that the Shekinah glory was not in the second temple proves that it cannot be that temple which is meant in the prophecy.

2. 東方之路——即榮耀從前離去所走的路
(Eze 11:22, 23),
並停在橄欖山上(比較
Zec 14:4)。
祂的聲音……如同……多水的聲音——英文版正確,如在
Eze 1:24
「全能者的聲音」;
Re 1:15; 14:2
證實此點。並非如 FAIRBAIRN 所譯的「其響聲」。
地因祂的榮耀發光——
(Re 18:1)。
英文原文
2. the way of the east--the way whereby the glory had departed
(Eze 11:22, 23),
and rested on Mount Olivet (compare
Zec 14:4).
his voice . . . like . . . many waters--So English Version rightly, as in
Eze 1:24,
"voice of the Almighty";
Re 1:15; 14:2,
prove this. Not as FAIRBAIRN translates, "its noise."
earth his glory--
(Re 18:1).

3. 我來毀滅這城的時候——即宣告神要毀滅這城的話。先知們與那以祂的名說話的主如此完全地認同。
英文原文
3. when I came to destroy the city--that is, to pronounce God's word for its destruction. So completely did the prophets identify themselves with Him in whose name they spake.

6. 那人——即量度建築物的那位
(Eze 40:3)。

(Eze 40:3).

7. 這地方——即「看哪,這是我寶座之地」——是你們心中常常惦念的地方
(賽二1-3; 耶三17; 亞十四16-20; 瑪三1)。
神從起初就宣稱自己是祂百姓政治上和宗教上的王;祂曾拒絕他們想要立人王的願望,因為那意味著拒絕祂作為國家真正的元首。即使當祂應允他們的願望時,也同時抗議他們的王除了作祂的代理人外,不得自行統治。當彌賽亞在耶路撒冷作王時,祂將首次實現神政國度的原始構想——一位兼具神性與人性的王,在公義中統治一個全然公義的子民
(結四十三12; 賽五十二1,五十四13,六十21)。
英文原文
7. the place--that is, "behold the place of My throne"--the place on which your thoughts have so much dwelt
(Isa 2:1-3; Jer 3:17; Zec 14:16-20; Mal 3:1).
God from the first claimed to be their King politically as well as religiously: and He had resisted their wish to have a human king, as implying a rejection of Him as the proper Head of the state. Even when He yielded to their wish, it was with a protest against their king ruling except as His vicegerent. When Messiah shall reign at Jerusalem, He shall then first realize the original idea of the theocracy, with its at once divine and human king reigning in righteousness over a people all righteous
(Eze 43:12; Isa 52:1; 54:13; 60:21).

9. 他們君王的屍首——有人推測他們一些拜偶像的王被葬在所羅門聖殿的範圍內〔HENDERSON〕。更恰當地說,是「他們偶像的屍首」,此處稱之為「王」,因為他們過去曾在其上掌權
(賽二十六13); 但從今以後,唯獨耶和華是他們合法的主,必作他們的王,而曾經作他們「王」的偶像將顯得不過是「屍首」。因此,這些已死的王在
結四十三7
中與「高处」相連〔FAIRBAIRN〕。
利二十六30
和
耶十六18
證實了這一點。瑪拿西曾在聖殿的院宇中為天象築壇
(王下二十一5,二十三6)。
我必永遠住在其中——
(啟二十一3)。
英文原文
9. carcasses of their kings--It is supposed that some of their idolatrous kings were buried within the bounds of Solomon's temple [HENDERSON]. Rather, "the carcasses of their idols," here called "kings," as having had lordship over them in past times
(Isa 26:13);
but henceforth Jehovah, alone their rightful lord, shall be their king, and the idols that had been their "king" would appear but as "carcasses." Hence these defunct kings are associated with the "high places" in
Eze 43:7
[FAIRBAIRN].
Le 26:30 and Jer 16:18,
confirm this. Manasseh had built altars in the courts of the temple to the host of heaven
(2Ki 21:5; 23:6).
I will dwell in the midst . . . for ever--
(Re 21:3).

10. 將殿指示……使他們因自己的罪孽慚愧——當基督教藍圖的屬靈性被聖靈向人指示時,就使他們「因自己的罪孽慚愧」。
英文原文
10. show the house . . . that they may be ashamed of their iniquities--When the spirituality of the Christian scheme is shown to men by the Holy Ghost, it makes them "ashamed of their iniquities."

12. 全……至聖——這個最高級,以前只用於至聖所
(出二十六34),
如今將表徵整座建築。這種無所不在的聖潔要成為「(全)殿的」律法,有別於利未律法——後者將特殊的聖潔局限於殿中的一個房間。
英文原文
12. whole . . . most holy--This superlative, which had been used exclusively of the holy of holies
(Ex 26:34),
was now to characterize the entire building. This all-pervading sanctity was to be "the law of the (whole) house," as distinguished from the Levitical law, which confined the peculiar sanctity to a single apartment of it.

15. 祭壇——希伯來文 Harel,即「神的山」;表示它要為復興的以色列提供高度的安全。它是一處高地,卻是屬神的高地,不是偶像的高地。
祭壇——字面意思是「神的獅子」,Ariel(在
賽二十九1,
「Ariel」用於耶路撒冷)。MENOCHIUS 推想在它上面刻有四種動物;獅子也許在最上方,角從其中發出。GESENIUS 認為這兩個詞表達祭壇的「爐床」或火塘。
英文原文
15. altar--Hebrew, Harel, that is, "mount of God"; denoting the high security to be imparted by it to the restored Israel. It was a high place, but a high place of God, not of idols.
from the altar--literally, "the lion of God," Ariel (in
Isa 29:1,
"Ariel" is applied to Jerusalem). MENOCHIUS supposes that on it four animals were carved; the lion perhaps was the uppermost, whence the horns were made to issue. GESENIUS regards the two words as expressing the "hearth" or fireplace of the altar.

臺階——更確切地說是「上壇之處」,因為上到神祭壇的「臺階」在
出 20:26 中是被禁止的。
英文原文
17. settle--ledge [FAIRBAIRN].
stairs--rather, "the ascent," as "steps" up to God's altar were forbidden in
Ex 20:26.

18-27. 這裏的祭物不僅是紀念性的,更是挽回性的。「血」
(結 43:18)
和「作為贖罪祭」
(結 43:19, 21, 22)
等用語證明了這一點。按字面意義,這只能適用於第二聖殿。在基督教的時代之下,這些將直接與
來 10:1-18
所教導的教義相抵觸,即基督憑一次獻祭便永遠贖了罪。然而,可能這些祭物是回顧性地指向基督的受苦,正如利未人的祭物是前瞻性地指向它們;本身並非挽回性的,而是作為紀念,以維持對祂那構成其國度基礎之挽回性受苦的記憶,免得在那國度的榮耀中被遺忘〔DE BURGH〕。指示的詳盡性使得人們不太可能僅僅以模糊的屬靈意義來理解它們。
英文原文
18-27. The sacrifices here are not mere commemorative, but propitiatory ones. The expressions, "blood"
(Eze 43:18),
and "for a sin offering"
(Eze 43:19, 21, 22),
prove this. In the literal sense they can only apply to the second temple. Under the Christian dispensation they would directly oppose the doctrine taught in
Heb 10:1-18,
namely, that Christ has by one offering for ever atoned for sin. However, it is possible that they might exist with a retrospective reference to Christ's sufferings, as the Levitical sacrifices had a prospective reference to them; not propitiatory in themselves, but memorials to keep up the remembrance of His propitiatory sufferings, which form the foundation of His kingdom, lest they should be lost sight of in the glory of that kingdom [DE BURGH]. The particularity of the directions make it unlikely that they are to be understood in a merely vague spiritual sense.

Eze 43:1-27.
耶和華回到聖殿。
如今一切都已預備好迎接祂。正如舍金納榮耀是舊聖殿特有的標記,新殿中的榮耀也將同樣遠超舊殿,正如新殿的規模超過舊殿一樣。第二聖殿中沒有舍金納榮耀的事實,證明預言所指的並不是那座聖殿。
