2.　No matter how much Japheth has been enlarged, God said that he would dwell in the tents of Shem; the Europeans have become strong and enlarged, but they must dwell in the tents of Shem:
a　帐棚是人居住、安息、有平安和享受的地方。
a.　A tent is a place where people may dwell, rest, and have peace and enjoyment.

c　主耶稣是亚伯拉罕的后裔和闪的后代，祂来的时候，乃是成为帐棚，帐幕，这帐幕要终极完成于新耶路撒冷，作闪终极的帐棚，就是神与人同在的帐幕，直到永远。无数来自各民的旧约和新约圣徒，要居住在这帐幕里，有分于永远生命的永远祝福─一14，启二一2~3。
c.　When the Lord Jesus came as a seed of Abraham and a descendant of Shem, He became the tent, the tabernacle, which will consummate in the New Jerusalem as the ultimate tent of Shem, the tabernacle of God with men for eternity, in which numerous Old and New Testament saints from all the nations will dwell to participate in the eternal blessing of the eternal life—1:14; Rev. 21:2-3.
