[Easton 한국어 번역] 애굽에 내린 아홉 번째 재앙인 어두움의 재앙(출 10:21)은 “더듬을 만한” 어두움으로 묘사된다. 그것은 “애굽 온 땅”을 덮어 “사람이 서로 볼 수 없게” 하였다. 그러나 고센 땅에는 미치지 않았다(23절). 예수께서 십자가에 달리셨을 때(마 27:45; 눅 23:44), “제육시로부터 온 땅에 어두움이 임하여 제구시까지 계속”되었다. 시내 산에서 모세는 “하나님의 계신 암흑으로 가까이” 나아갔다(출 20:21). 이것은 여호와께서 그곳에서 모세에게 말씀하실 때 그 안에 계셨던, “산 위의 빽빽한 구름”이었다. 주께서는 속죄소 위의 구름, 곧 영광의 구름 가운데 거하셨다(왕상 8:12). 시편 기자는 하나님께서 사람들 가운데 행하시는 일의 헤아릴 수 없는 성격을 묘사하면서 “구름과 흑암이 그에게 둘렸고”라고 말한다(시 97:2). 하나님께서는 캄캄한 어두움 가운데 거하신다. 어두움(사 13:9, 10; 마 24:29)은 또한 주의 오심에 수반되는 심판들의 상징이다. 그것은 비참함과 역경의 상징이다(욥 18:6; 시 107:10; 사 8:22; 겔 30:18). 요엘 2:2의 “어둡고 캄캄한 날”은 구름 같은 메뚜기 떼로 말미암은 것으로, 하나님의 모든 행하심을 뒤덮고 있는 불가해함의 상징이다. “어두움의 일”은 불결한 행위들이다(엡 5:11). “바깥 어두움”은 집 안의 즐겁고 환한 불빛과 대조되는 동방 거리의 어두움을 가리킨다. 동방의 거리는 해가 진 뒤 공공 등불이나 개인 등불로 밝혀지는 일이 전혀 없다. 어두움은 또한 무지(사 9:2; 60:2; 마 6:23)와 죽음(욥 10:21; 17:13)의 상징이다.

[Easton] The plague (the ninth) of darkness in Egypt (Ex. 10:21) is described as darkness “which may be felt.” It covered “all the land of Egypt,” so that “they saw not one another.” It did not extend to the land of Goshen (ver. 23). When Jesus hung upon the cross (Matt. 27:45; Luke 23:44), from the “sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.” On Mount Sinai, Moses (Ex. 20:21) “drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.” This was the “thick cloud upon the mount” in which Jehovah was when he spake unto Moses there. The Lord dwelt in the cloud upon the mercy-seat (1 Kings 8:12), the cloud of glory. When the psalmist (Ps. 97:2) describes the inscrutable nature of God’s workings among the sons of men, he says, “Clouds and darkness are round about him.” God dwells in thick darkness. Darkness (Isa. 13:9, 10; Matt. 24:29) also is a symbol of the judgments that attend on the coming of the Lord. It is a symbol of misery and adversity (Job 18:6; Ps. 107:10; Isa. 8:22; Ezek. 30:18). The “day of darkness” in Joel 2:2, caused by clouds of locusts, is a symbol of the obscurity which overhangs all divine proceedings. “Works of darkness” are impure actions (Eph. 5:11). “Outer darkness” refers to the darkness of the streets in the East, which are never lighted up by any public or private lamps after nightfall, in contrast with the blaze of cheerful light in the house. It is also a symbol of ignorance (Isa. 9:2; 60:2; Matt. 6:23) and of death (Job 10:21; 17:13). [Smith] is spoken of as encompassing the actual presence of God, as that out of which he speaks,—the envelope, as it were, of divine glory. (Exodus 20:21; 1 Kings 8:12) The plague of darkness in Egypt was miraculous. The darkness “over all the land,” (Matthew 27:45) attending the crucifixion has been attributed to an eclipse, but was undoubtedly miraculous, as no eclipse of the sun could have taken place at that time, the moon being at the full at the time of the passover. Darkness is also, as in the expression “land of darkness,” used for the state of the dead, (Job 10:21,22) and frequently, figuratively, for ignorance and unbelief, as the privation of spiritual light.
