创世记 9章27节 到 9章27节 背景资料 上一笔 下一笔

     * enlarge.  or, persuade.  Japheth.
       Japheth denotes enlargement, and how wonderfully have his
       boundaries been enlarged; for not only Europe, but Asia Minor,
       part of Armenia, Iberia, the whole of the vast regions of Asia
       north of Taurus, and probably America, fell to the share of
       his posterity.

     * he shall dwell.
       These words may mean either that God or that Japheth shall
       dwell in the tents of Shem.  In either sense the prophecy has
       been literally fulfilled.

     * dwell.
