Hébreux 10:28 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 10:28

He that despised Moses' law
By breaking it wilfully, and presumptuously, for which there was no sacrifice; meaning the law which Moses was the minister of not the author; and it respects the whole body of laws given by him, from God; and is instanced in for the sake of the comparison between him and Christ, and between the law and the Gospel, and for the illustration of the case in hand. Now one that transgressed that law, either in whole, or in part, by denying it entirely, or by breaking any particular precept of it presumptuously,

died without mercy;
a corporeal death; there was no atonement nor sacrifice for him, nor pity to be shown him, ( Deuteronomy 13:8 ) ( 19:13 ) .

Under two or three witnesses;
who "stood by", or were present, as the Arabic version renders it, when the transgression was committed; or that "accused him", as the Ethiopic version; that were witnesses against him, and plainly and fully proved the fact, ( Deuteronomy 17:6 ) ( 19:15 ) .

Hébreux 10:28 In-Context

26 Car si nous péchons volontaire-ment, après avoir reçu la connaissance de la vérité, il ne reste plus de sacrifices pour les péchés,

27 Mais une terrible attente du jugement et un feu ardent, qui doit dévorer les adversaires.

28 Quelqu'un a-t-il violé la loi de Moïse, il meurt sans miséricorde, sur le témoignage de deux ou trois personnes;

29 De quel plus grand supplice pensez-vous que sera jugé digne celui qui foulera aux pieds le Fils de Dieu, et qui tiendra pour profane le sang de l'alliance, par lequel il avait été sanctifié, et qui outragera l'Esprit de la grâce?

30 Car nous connaissons celui qui a dit: A moi appartient la vengeance; je rendrai la pareille, dit le Seigneur. Et ailleurs: Le Seigneur jugera son peuple.
