出埃及记 12章40节 到 12章40节 背景资料 上一笔 下一笔

       The Samaritan Pentateuch reads, "Now the sojourning of the
       children of Israel, and of their fathers in the land of
       Canaan and in the land of Egypt, was 430; years."  The
       Alexandrine copy of the LXX. has the same reading; and the
       same statement is made by the apostle Paul, in Ga 3:17, who
       reckons from the promise made to Abraham to the giving of the
       law.  That these three witnesses have the truth, the
       chronology itself proves; for it is evident that the
       descendants of Israel did not dwell 430; years in Egypt; while
       it is equally evident, that the period from Abraham's entry
       into Canaan to the Exodus, is exactly that number.  Thus,
       from Abraham's entrance into the promised land to the birth
       of Isaac, was 25; years; Isaac was 60; at the birth of Jacob;
       Jacob was 130; at his going into Egypt; where he and his
       children continued 215; years more; making in the whole 430
       years.  See Kennicott's Dissertation on the Hebrew Text.
