2. 初熟的無花果——即「boccora」,早熟無花果(參見
Isa 28:4)。
一筐無花果從前常作初熟之物獻於聖殿。好無花果代表約雅斤與在巴比倫的被擄者;壞無花果代表西底家與在猶大頑梗的猶太人。他們分別被稱為好與壞,不是絕對的意義,而是相對的意義,且是參照後者的刑罰而言。這預言旨在鼓勵失望的被擄者,並責備在本國以為優於在巴比倫之人、濫用神寬容的百姓(比較
Jer 52:31-34)。
英文原文
2. figs . . . first ripe--the "boccora," or early fig (see on
Isa 28:4).
Baskets of figs used to be offered as first-fruits in the temple. The good figs represent Jeconiah and the exiles in Babylon; the bad, Zedekiah and the obstinate Jews in Judea. They are called good and bad respectively, not in an absolute, but a comparative sense, and in reference to the punishment of the latter. This prophecy was designed to encourage the despairing exiles, and to reprove the people at home, who prided themselves as superior to those in Babylon and abused the forbearance of God (compare
Jer 52:31-34).

5. 看顧——以恩惠看待,正如你善待好無花果一般。
使他們得好處——他們被遷到巴比倫,使他們免遭臨到其餘國民的災禍,並在那裏引導他們悔改:如此神改善了他們的境況
(王下 25:27-30)。
但以理與以西結都在這些被擄的人中。
英文原文
5. acknowledge--regard with favor, like as thou lookest on the good figs favorably.
for their good--Their removal to Babylon saved them from the calamities which befell the rest of the nation and led them to repentance there: so God bettered their condition
(2Ki 25:27-30).
Daniel and Ezekiel were among these captives.

(Jer 12:15)。
不拆毀……不拔出——僅在從巴比倫歸回時局部應驗;其預表之意與完全的應驗,要在將來才得成就
(Jer 32:41;33:7)。
英文原文
6.
(Jer 12:15).
not pull . . . down . . . not pluck . . . up--only partially fulfilled in the restoration from Babylon; antitypically and fully to be fulfilled hereafter
(Jer 32:41; 33:7).

7.(Jer 30:22;31:33;32:38)。他們藉巴比倫被擄之管教的效力,從偶像崇拜歸向獨一真神的轉變,在此以一種其豐富含義適用於猶太人日後更完全之歸正的語言來表達——他們將「盡心盡意」(Jer 29:13)地,藉現今分散之痛苦的管教而歸正。他們歸正的源頭在此被指明為神先行的恩典。
因為他們必歸回——悔改雖非赦免的原因,卻是其不變的伴隨:它是神賜他們一個認識祂的心的結果。
英文原文
7.
(Jer 30:22; 31:33; 32:38).
Their conversion from idolatry to the one true God, through the chastening effect of the Babylonish captivity, is here expressed in language which, in its fulness, applies to the more complete conversion hereafter of the Jews, "with their whole heart"
(Jer 29:13),
through the painful discipline of their present dispersion. The source of their conversion is here stated to be God's prevenient grace.
for they shall return--Repentance, though not the cause of pardon, is its invariable accompaniment: it is the effect of God's giving a heart to know Him.
