Hebrews 3:11 - Forerunner Commentary

Hebrews 3:11

9 Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.

10 Therefore I was angry with that generation,
And said, ‘They always go astray in their heart,
And they have not known My ways.’

11 So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”

12 Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God;

13 but¹ exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

14 For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end,

15 while it is said:
^a“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”

16 ^aFor who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses?
