Hebrews 12:26
Compare all
24 to Jesus athe Mediator of the new covenant, and to bthe blood of sprinkling that speaks better things cthan that of Abel.  

Hear the Heavenly Voice

25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For aif they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven,  
26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, a“Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.”  
27 Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the aremoval of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.  
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we1 may aserve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.  
29 For aour God is a consuming fire.

Hebrews 12:26

Then shook (esaleusen tote). Old verb as in Matthew 11:7.

He hath promised (ephggeltai). Perfect middle indicative of epaggellw and it still holds. He quotes Haggai 2:6.

Will I make to tremble (seisw). Old and strong verb (here future active) seiw, to agitate, to cause to tremble as in Matthew 21:10. The author applies this "yet once more" (eti apac) and the reference to heaven (ton ouranon) to the second and final "shaking" at the Second Coming of Jesus Christ for judgement (Hebrews 9:28).
