Xuất Ê-díp-tô Ký 34
Kinh Thánh Bản Truyền Thống ⇄ NET Bible
The Lord said to Moses, “Cut out two tablets of stone like the first, and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you smashed.
Be prepared in the morning, and go up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and station yourself for me there on the top of the mountain.
No one is to come up with you; do not let anyone be seen anywhere on the mountain; not even the flocks or the herds may graze in front of that mountain.”
So Moses cut out two tablets of stone like the first; early in the morning he went up to Mount Sinai, just as the Lord had commanded him, and he took in his hand the two tablets of stone.
The Lord descended in the cloud and stood with him there and proclaimed the Lord by name.
StudiuSự tự bày tỏ của Đức Chúa Trời — Tại đây Đức Chúa Trời bày tỏ tính cách của Ngài—nhân từ, thương xót, chậm giận, đầy dẫy ân huệ và thành thực. Đây thường được gọi là 'Mười ba thuộc tính của Đức Chúa Trời', một đoạn Kinh Thánh nền tảng để hiểu về bản tính vừa hay tha thứ vừa công chính của Ngài.The Lord passed by before him and proclaimed: “The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, and abounding in loyal love and faithfulness,
keeping loyal love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin. But he by no means leaves the guilty unpunished, responding to the transgression of fathers by dealing with children and children’s children, to the third and fourth generation.”
Moses quickly bowed to the ground and worshiped
and said, “If now I have found favor in your sight, O Lord, let my Lord go among us, for we are a stiff-necked people; pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for your inheritance.”
He said, “See, I am going to make a covenant before all your people. I will do wonders such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation. All the people among whom you live will see the work of the Lord, for it is a fearful thing that I am doing with you.
“Obey what I am commanding you this day. I am going to drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
Be careful not to make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it become a snare among you.
Rather you must destroy their altars, smash their images, and cut down their Asherah poles.
StudiuĐức Chúa Trời kỵ tà — Từ 'kỵ tà' (tiếng Hê-bơ-rơ là 'qanna') có nghĩa là 'nhiệt thành' hoặc 'đầy đam mê', không phải là sự hằn học. Đức Chúa Trời kỵ tà vì tình yêu và lòng trung thành của dân Ngài, giống như một người chồng không chấp nhận chia sẻ người phối ngẫu của mình với kẻ khác.For you must not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
Be careful not to make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, for when they prostitute themselves to their gods and sacrifice to their gods, and someone invites you, you will eat from his sacrifice;
and you then take his daughters for your sons, and when his daughters prostitute themselves to their gods, they will make your sons prostitute themselves to their gods as well.
You must not make yourselves molten gods.
StudiuTháng A-bíp — A-bíp (có nghĩa là 'mùa xuân') là tháng của Lễ Vượt Qua và cuộc Xuất Ê-díp-tô. Sau này được gọi là Ni-san, tháng này đánh dấu sự khởi đầu của lịch tôn giáo và sự đổi mới của cộng đồng giao ước.“You must keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you must eat bread made without yeast, as I commanded you; do this at the appointed time of the month Abib, for in the month Abib you came out of Egypt.
“Every firstborn of the womb belongs to me, even every firstborn of your cattle that is a male, whether ox or sheep.
Now the firstling of a donkey you may redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, then break its neck. You must redeem all the firstborn of your sons. “No one will appear before me empty-handed.
“On six days you may labor, but on the seventh day you must rest; even at the time of plowing and of harvest you are to rest.
“You must observe the Feast of Weeks – the firstfruits of the harvest of wheat – and the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year.
At three times in the year all your men must appear before the Lord God, the God of Israel.
For I will drive out the nations before you and enlarge your borders; no one will covet your land when you go up to appear before the Lord your God three times in the year.
“You must not offer the blood of my sacrifice with yeast; the sacrifice from the feast of Passover must not remain until the following morning.
“The first of the firstfruits of your soil you must bring to the house of the Lord your God. You must not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.”
The Lord said to Moses, “Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.”
StudiuBốn mươi ngày không ăn — Môi-se đã kiêng ăn trong 40 ngày đêm, một khuôn mẫu sau này cũng thấy ở Ê-li (1 Vua 19:8) và Chúa Giê-xu (Ma-thi-ơ 4:2). Điều này cho thấy sự phụ thuộc hoàn toàn vào Đức Chúa Trời và sự chuẩn bị để tiếp nhận Luật pháp.(MAT 4:2)So he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did not eat bread, and he did not drink water. He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.
StudiuDa mặt Môi-se sáng rực — Động từ 'qaran' trong tiếng Hê-bơ-rơ có nghĩa là 'phát ra các tia sáng' (như hình cái sừng). Sự vinh hiển rạng ngời từ sự hiện diện của Đức Chúa Trời khiến dân Y-sơ-ra-ên kinh ngạc. Sau này Phao-lô đối chiếu vinh hiển chóng qua này với vinh hiển bền vững của giao ước mới (2 Cô-rinh-tô 3:7-18).(2CO 3:13)Now when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand – when he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.
When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to approach him.
But Moses called to them, so Aaron and all the leaders of the community came back to him, and Moses spoke to them.
After this all the Israelites approached, and he commanded them all that the Lord had spoken to him on Mount Sinai.
When Moses finished speaking with them, he would put a veil on his face.
But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he would remove the veil until he came out. Then he would come out and tell the Israelites what he had been commanded.
When the Israelites would see the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone, Moses would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with the Lord.
