Hebrews 10:24-25

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 10:24

Having urged from the gospel doctrine of our High Priest our duty to God, the Spirit proceeds to show what influence it should have on Christians for performing their duty one to another, in their inspection and observation of the whole body of Christ, consisting of Jew and Gentile, who have equally shared in Christ’s sacrifice, and are interested in and related to is his person; and by the apprehensive and judicial faculty so to discern the spiritual state and condition of each other, and the... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 10:25

Helps to the performance of both the former duties, to God and fellow Christians, with their respective motives, are laid down in the following part of the chapter. The first is couched in this verse; neither slighting in thought, nor vilifying in word, nor separating, nor leaving by dissociation. Not forsaking: εγκαταλειποντες imports such a desertion, as leaves destitute in deep trouble or distress, when they should be helping. The assembling of ourselves together: επισυναγωγην strictly notes... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Hebrews 10:19-25

CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESHebrews 10:19.—Compare chaps. Hebrews 4:14-16. Brethren.—A sign of the conciliatory tone which the writer is anxious to preserve. Boldness.—See on chaps. Hebrews 3:6, Hebrews 4:16. Enter into the holiest.—Free access to the sanctuary. This point the writer has argued. By the blood of Jesus.—ἐν τῷ αἵματι. Moulton says, “It is not that we enter with the blood, as the high priest entered the Holy of Holies (Hebrews 9:25); no comparison is made between Christ’s people... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 10:19-25

Hebrews 10:19-25 Faith, Hope, and Love. I. The Apostle's great argument is concluded, and the result is placed before us in a very short summary. We have boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way; and we have in the heavenly sanctuary a great Priest over the house of God. On this foundation rests a threefold exhortation. (1) Let us draw near with a true heart, in the full assurance of faith. (2) Let us hold fast the profession of hope without wavering.... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 10:24

Hebrews 10:24 I. "Works." Work is the condition of life in the world. The law of both kingdoms alike is, "If any man will not work, neither should he eat." Work has been made a necessity in the constitution of nature, and declared a duty in the positive precepts of Scripture. Idleness is both sin and misery. Every thing is working. A non-productive class is an anomaly in creation. Christ was a worker. He went about doing. The world is a field. It must be subdued and made the garden of the... read more

Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.CHRISTIANS in general do not sufficiently advert to Christian principles as a ground... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Hebrews 10:1-39

Chapter 10For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very substance of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect ( Hebrews 10:1 ).Now notice the law was only a shadow of the good things to come. The value of the studying of Leviticus and the studying of the law, to the Christian, is that it foreshadows the work of Jesus Christ, the offering of Jesus Christ, and the high priestly nature of Jesus... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 10:1-39

Hebrews 10:1 . The law having a shadow of good things to come. St. Paul, ere his epistles were engrossed, weighed his words, adjusted his thoughts, collated them with the prophets, and knew the support he had from rabbinical theology. The law was a shadow indeed, but a very imperfect shadow of the Messiah, and the glory of his kingdom. Some call it a rough draught of better things. By the law we understand the whole of the ancient economy, which was a shadow of future realities; and... read more

Hebrews 10:22-24Let us draw nearA triplet of exhortationsI.DRAWING NEAR. Observe by way of contrast1. Moses at the burning bush. “Draw not nigh hither.” Fire symbolic of judgment. God cannot thus be approached unto. 2. Children of Israel of Mount Sinai. The injunction given to stand off from the mount, God present in holiness, requiring perfect obedience to His law. This man could not render. Therefore there was no hope of being reconciled to God by the law. 3. Yet now the apostle says, “Let us... read more

Hebrews 10:24-25Consider one another, to provoke unto loveMutual consideration:This is a matter of very wide counsel.We consider ourselves--our health, peace, comfort, &c.as a rule, quite enough. We consider, too, our families full well. But Christian life brings us into the great broad sweep of humanity. Wherever there is another, we are to consider him. Consideration implies thought, and thought is costly material burning up the brain. I. MUTUAL CONSIDERATION IS TO BE A CULTIVATED... read more
