标题与定义 / Title & Definition

ENANTHROPOPATHY. A term applied to certain forms of expression touching God, chiefly found in the Old Testament. Definitely stated, it is the attribution to God of human emotions, passions and actions, as "repenting," "grieving," "hating," "hiding the face," "turning from," "returning to," "rising up early and speaking," etc.

语法A term applied to…:过去分词短语作后置定语(= a term that is applied to…)。touching 此处为介词性用法,『关于,论及』(= concerning)。Definitely stated:过去分词短语作状语,『确切地说』。
语法参:the + 动名词的名词化结构 → 001 repenting / grieving / hating…:一串动名词列举被归给神的情感与动作。

中神格拟人:一个术语,指论及神时采用的某类表达方式,主要见于旧约。确切地说,就是把人类的情感、情绪和动作归给神,如『后悔』『忧伤』『恨恶』『掩面』『转离』『回转』『清早起来说话』等。

ENIt is an accommodation to the thought and speech of men, in order to emphasize most effectively the reality of His relations and dealings with men, and the strength and intensity of His interest in their spiritual well-being. As His revelation must be in accord with the thought and language of men to be comprehensible by them, so the disclosure of His desires and purposes of blessing is most clearly and impressively made by adopting forms of expression employed among men.

语法as … so … 关联结构(正如……照样……)
as 引导的从句与 so 引导的主句前后呼应,表『正如……照样……』:As a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee(人怎样管教儿子,耶和华你神也照样管教你);As His revelation must be in accord with the thought of men, so the disclosure of His desires is made by adopting forms of expression employed among men。so 之后有时会倒装。
本句:As His revelation must be…, so the disclosure … is made…:as…so… 关联结构的完整例句——『正如启示必须合乎人的语言,照样心意的显明也采用人的表达方式』。

中这是神向人的思想和语言的一种『俯就迁就』,为要最有力地强调祂与人的关系和作为的真实性,以及祂对人属灵福祉何等深切的关注。正如祂的启示必须合乎人的思想语言才能被人理解,照样,祂的心意与赐福的旨意,也是借着采用人间通行的表达方式,得以最清晰、最深刻地显明出来。
