Jer 47:1-7.

開啟正文

简体中文

耶 47:1-7。

对非利士人的预言。

1. 法老尼哥大概是在米吉多击败约西亚之后,于归途中击打迦萨

(代下 35:20)

[格老修斯(GROTIUS)]。或者,是指法老合弗拉

(耶 37:5, 7):

大概是他试图从迦勒底人手中救援耶路撒冷无果而归后,为使其远征不至于完全徒劳,便击打迦萨[加尔文(CALVIN)]

(摩 1:6, 7)。

英文原文

Jer 47:1-7.

PROPHECY AGAINST THE PHILISTINES.

1. Pharaoh-necho probably smote Gaza on his return after defeating Josiah at Megiddo

(2Ch 35:20)

[GROTIUS]. Or, Pharaoh-hophra

(Jer 37:5, 7)

is intended: probably on his return from his fruitless attempt to save Jerusalem from the Chaldeans, he smote Gaza in order that his expedition might not be thought altogether in vain [CALVIN]

(Am 1:6, 7).

2. 众水——

(赛 8:7)。

从北方来的迦勒底人被比作他们自己伯拉大河那漫溢的众水。击打迦萨只是非利士人更大灾祸的前奏。尼布甲尼撒攻取耶路撒冷之后,留下尼布撒拉旦去征服周围其余的城邑和乡间。

英文原文

2. waters--

(Isa 8:7).

The Chaldeans from the north are compared to the overwhelming waters of their own Euphrates. The smiting of Gaza was to be only the prelude of a greater disaster to the Philistines. Nebuzara-dan was left by Nebuchadnezzar, after he had taken Jerusalem, to subdue the rest of the adjoining cities and country.

3. (比较

Jer 4:29)。

父亲……不回头顾……儿女——各人只顾自己的安全,连父亲也不顾念自己的儿女。灾难将极其绝望,以致人连天然的感情也抛弃了。

手都发软——手是行动的主要工具,将完全失去力量;他们全部的希望只能寄托在双脚上。

英文原文

3. (Compare

Jer 4:29).

fathers . . . not look back to . . . children--Each shall think only of his own safety, not even the fathers regarding their own children. So desperate shall be the calamity that men shall divest themselves of the natural affections.

for feebleness of hands--The hands, the principal instruments of action, shall have lost all power; their whole hope shall be in their feet.

4. 各个帮助者——非利士人既与推罗、西顿的腓尼基人相邻,遇有外敌入侵时自然与他们同仇敌忾。这些城邑在非利士人被灭之后,便再无帮助者剩下。

迦斐托——迦斐托人和非利士人都源自麦西

(Ge 10:13, 14)。

据说非利士人是被神从迦斐托领出来的

(Am 9:7)。

或许在摩西以前,他们住在迦斐托附近,被迦斐托人征服

(De 2:23),

后来又被解救。"余剩的人"在此是指埃及人攻击迦萨和巴勒斯坦之后所剩下的人;更当指迦勒底人攻击非利士人之前先攻击迦斐托人之后,迦斐托人所剩下的人。有人把迦斐托视为加帕多家;GESENIUS认为是克里特

(Eze 25:16,

基利提人);KITTO认为是居比路。在巴勒斯坦与以东之间有一城名叫加帕罗萨;他们一方面与巴勒斯坦相近,另一方面又与埃及(麦西,

Ge 10:13, 14)

相近,使这一地点最为可能。

英文原文

4. every helper--The Philistines, being neighbors to the Phœnicians of Tyre and Sidon, would naturally make common cause with them in the case of invasion. These cities would have no helper left when the Philistines should be destroyed.

Caphtor--the Caphtorim and Philistines both came from Mizraim

(Ge 10:13, 14).

The Philistines are said to have been delivered by God from Caphtor

(Am 9:7).

Perhaps before the time of Moses they dwelt near and were subjugated by the Caphtorim

(De 2:23)

and subsequently delivered. "The remnant" means here those still left after the Egyptians had attacked Gaza and Palestine; or rather, those left of the Caphtorim after the Chaldeans had attacked them previous to their attack on the Philistines. Some identify Caphtor with Cappadocia; GESENIUS, with Crete

(Eze 25:16,

Cherethims); KITTO, Cyprus. Between Palestine and Idumea there was a city Caparorsa; and their close connection with Palestine on the one hand, and Egypt (Mizraim,

Ge 10:13, 14)

on the other hand, makes this locality the most likely.

5. 秃头……划身——巴勒斯坦被拟作一个扯下头发、割裂皮肉的女子,这是异教的

(Le 19:28)

举哀记号

(Jer 48:37)。

他们的山谷——非利士人沿地中海、犹大山脉以西所占据的狭长低平地带。七十士译本读作亚衲族人,他们的余民定居于那些地区

(Nu 13:28)。

约书亚曾把他们驱逐,以致除了迦萨、迦特、亚实突之外,别处无存

(Jos 11:21, 22)。

但平行的

(Jer 47:7),

"亚实基伦……海岸",确立了英文译本在此的译法:"亚实基伦……他们的山谷"。

英文原文

5. Baldness . . . cut thyself--Palestine is represented as a female who has torn off her hair and cut her flesh, the heathenish

(Le 19:28)

token of mourning

(Jer 48:37).

their valley--the long strip of low plain occupied by the Philistines along the Mediterranean, west of the mountains of Judea. The Septuagint reads Anakim, the remains of whom were settled in those regions

(Nu 13:28).

Joshua dislodged them so that none were left but in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod

(Jos 11:21, 22).

But the parallel

(Jer 47:7),

"Ashkelon . . . the sea-shore," established English Version here, "Ashkelon . . . their valley."

6. 耶利米以苦待自己的非利士人

(Jer 47:5)

的口吻,向"耶和华的刀"呼求怜悯(比较

De 32:41; Eze 21:3-5, 9, 10)。

你收刀入鞘——希伯来文,"聚集自己",即退去或归回。

英文原文

6. Jeremiah, in the person of the Philistines afflicting themselves

(Jer 47:5),

apostrophizes the "sword of the Lord," entreating mercy (compare

De 32:41; Eze 21:3-5, 9, 10).

up thyself--Hebrew, "Gather thyself," that is, retire or return.

7. 耶利米从以第二人称对刀说话,转为对听众说话,以第三人称论及它。

主……吩咐它——

(Eze 14:17)。

海岸——山脉与地中海之间、非利士人所据的地带:"他们的山谷"(参

Jer 47:5)。

在那里他指定了它——

(Mic 6:9)。

在那里祂命定它肆虐。

英文原文

7. Jeremiah, from addressing the sword in the second person, turns to his hearers and speaks of it in the third person.

Lord . . . given it a charge--

(Eze 14:17).

the sea-shore--the strip of land between the mountains and Mediterranean, held by the Philistines: "their valley" (see on

Jer 47:5).

there hath he appointed it--

(Mic 6:9).

There hath He ordered it to rage.
