12 For when by reason of the time you ought to be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.
12 In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!
13 For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
13 Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness.
14 But solid food is for full grown men, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.
14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
