王國維提出二重證據法，強調地下出土文物文字資料可與經傳相互證明闡發，本文即根據金文中文句與文獻對比，補充修訂經典中舊釋的幾個問題，以《尚書•君奭》：「嗣前人，恭明德。」及《逸周書•祭公篇》：「俾百僚乃心，率輔弼予一人。」為例。

Wang Guowei pointed out the importance of the 'dual evidence method,' combining the evidence from archaeological artifacts with the evidence from written documents, each one proving and elucidating the other. This paper compares written data from bronzeware and the Classics, and shows how one can thus revise traditional debatable explanations of the latter with examples taken from Shang shu and Yi Zhoushu.
