旧约 - 民数记(Numbers)第36章

And the chief fathers of the families of the children of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of the sons of Joseph, came near, and spake before Moses, and before the princes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel:
And they said, The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto his daughters.
And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
And when the jubile of the children of Israel shall be, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers.
And Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the LORD, saying, The tribe of the sons of Joseph hath said well.
This is the thing which the LORD doth command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom they think best; only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry.
So shall not the inheritance of the children of Israel remove from tribe to tribe: for every one of the children of Israel shall keep himself to the inheritance of the tribe of his fathers.
And every daughter, that possesseth an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel, shall be wife unto one of the family of the tribe of her father, that the children of Israel may enjoy every man the inheritance of his fathers.
Neither shall the inheritance remove from one tribe to another tribe; but every one of the tribes of the children of Israel shall keep himself to his own inheritance.
Even as the LORD commanded Moses, so did the daughters of Zelophehad:
For Mahlah, Tirzah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Noah, the daughters of Zelophehad, were married unto their father's brothers' sons:
And they were married into the families of the sons of Manasseh the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of the family of their father.
These are the commandments and the judgments, which the LORD commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho.
民数记第卅六章   第 36 章 

  民 36:1-9> 合情合理又合法的处事智慧来自谁?遇到难题时我通常…… 

  36:1-9 西罗非哈有五个女儿,但没有儿子。按当时习俗,人如果没有儿子,产业就都要归其他至亲男性;如此一来,西罗非哈家族的名字就要灭没了,故当他死后,他的女儿们去见摩西,恳求改变这习俗。为此神吩咐摩西,产业要归女儿( 27:8 )。但又出现她们出嫁的问题。如果她们嫁给其他支派的人,到了禧年,其地业就要归于别的支派了。所以摩西吩咐说,她们只可以嫁给同一支派的人,好使各支派保持原有的产业。后来当各派领受产业时,他们就照神的吩咐,将产业分给西罗非哈的女儿们(参书 17:3-6 )。智慧的领袖遇到特殊情况时,就会考虑如何酌情处理以伸张公义。 

  民 36:13> 以色列人遵从神给摩西的吩咐就顺利,反之便招灾,这启发、提醒我…… 

  36:13 这卷民数记,记载了以色列人在旷野先后三十九年的经历,结束的时候,他们已经来到约旦河边,应许之地清楚在望。旷野飘流即将结束,百姓就要准备下一个伟大的行动──攻占应许之地。在摩西五经中所记载的事,全是警告我们的实例,使我们免犯以色列人所犯的错误。使徒保罗写给哥林多教会的信中,也引用祖宗的行为作为鉴戒(参林前 10:1-12 )。我们从他们的经验中,看出不信神是招灾的根源。我们也学到不可贪享过去的罪中之乐,也不可怨天尤人,在一切事上不可与罪恶妥协。我们一生都要让神来引领,不可忽略民数记中的信息。──《灵修版圣经注释》
