Hebrews 4:8
Compare all
6 Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter because of disobedience,
7 again He designates a certain day, saying in David, “Today,” after such a long time, as it has been said:
a“Today, if you will hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts.”  
8 For if1 Joshua had agiven them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day.  
9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God.
10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.

The Word Discovers Our Condition

11 aLet us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.  
12 For the word of God is aliving and powerful, and bsharper than any ctwo-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is da discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Hebrews 4:8

Hebrews 4:8 For if Jesus. "Joshua" in the Revised Version. "Jesus" is the Greek form of the Hebrew word "Joshua". Had given them rest. Joshua led Israel over the Jordan into Canaan, but that did not give them complete rest. Then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. If that had been true, David would not have exhorted them to seek to enter into rest. Five hundred years after they entered Canaan this exhortation is given in Psalms 95:7-11.
