Hebrews 13:9
Excerpted from: Grace Upon GraceEstablish—some modern translations say strengthen. Either word is correct. Food represents things that are a physical, ritual observance. God is the author of ritual as well, and they have their place. But I think what Paul is referring to here is the ritual observance of the ceremony of law of the Old Covenant. There was food involved with that. But over the years people came to have a superstitious attitude toward it, that if they would just eat of something that had been offered in sacrifice, that it would impart to them some spiritual strength. And of course it could not. We receive strength from spiritual things. We receive spiritual strength from spiritual things.
