The book of Hebrews was written to Jewish believers in Christ. Many believe it was written to the church in Jerusalem, the birthplace of Christianity, but now a church that was struggling. Many were being drawn back into Judaism, back to the ways of the Old Testament, back to the laws of Moses.
This book was written to accomplish three important things in these Jewish believers. First, to show them the supremacy of Christ over all things. He is greater than all the angels, he is greater than Moses, he is the fulfillment of all that is in the Old Testament and whereas God used to speak in the Old Testament through the prophets, God now speaks through Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Secondly, he writes to warn them of the dangers of unbelief. We’ll see some of that in the verses we are studying today in chapter 4.
And finally, he writes to strengthen their faith; to draw them back into a place of completely trusting in the word that God sent through His Son. We find some of the greatest verses on faith in the book of Hebrews in the entire Bible.
In chapters 3 and 4, he reminds them of one of Israel’s famous failures when they tested God in the wilderness and hardened their hearts with a lack of faith. It was a turning point in the history of Israel and it wasn’t good.
Because of that lack of faith, because they hardened their hearts and wouldn’t trust by taking God at His word, that entire generation died in the wilderness. They did not enter into the land God had promised them.
But more than that, they did not enter into His rest. The meaning and significance of God’s rest is extremely important. It’s a major theme that runs through the entire Bible from Genesis to Revelation. It’s absolutely critical that we understand what that means because the promise of rest is the promise of not just of eternal life, it has everything to do with the victorious life God intends for us right here and right now.
