Hebrews 3:15 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 3:15

While it is said today
Exhort one another, and hold fast Christ and his Gospel, and faith and confidence therein; what follows is a repetition of the citation in ( Hebrews 3:7 Hebrews 3:8 ) in order to make a further improvement of it; which shows, that the words belong to the present times of the Gospel, and contain in them matter of moment, and great concern; and that Scripture instructions and exhortations are of perpetual use.

Hebrews 3:15 In-Context

13 Instead, encourage each other every day, as long as it's called "today," so that none of you become insensitive to God because of sin's deception.

14 We are partners with Christ, but only if we hold on to the confidence we had in the beginning until the end.

15 When it says, Today, if you hear his voice, don't have stubborn hearts as they did in the rebellion.

16 Who was it who rebelled when they heard his voice? Wasn't it all of those who were brought out of Egypt by Moses?

17 And with whom was God angry for forty years? Wasn't it with the ones who sinned, whose bodies fell in the desert?
