Hebreos 6:8

8 Mas la que produce espinas y abrojos, es reprobada, y cercana de maldición, y su fin será por fuego

Hebreos 6:8 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 6:8

But that which beareth thorns and briers
To which wicked men answer; who are unfruitful and unprofitable, and are hurtful, pricking and grieving, by their wicked lives and conversations, by their bitter and reproachful words, and by their violent and cruel persecutions; and particularly carnal professors, and especially apostates, such as before described; for to such earth, professors of religion may be compared, who are worldly, slothful, defrauding and overreaching, carnal and wanton; as also heretical men, and such as turn from the faith, deny it, and persecute the saints: and the things or actions produced by them are aptly expressed by "thorns and briers"; such as errors, heresies, and evil works of all kinds; and which show that the seed of the word was never sown in their hearts, and that that which they bear, or throw out, is natural to them: and such earth is rejected;
as such men are, both by the church, and by God himself; or "reprobate", as they are concerning the faith, and to every good work; and are given up by God to a reprobate mind: and is "nigh unto cursing"; and such men are cursed already by the law, being under its sentence of curse and condemnation; and are nigh to the execution of it; referring either to the destruction of Jerusalem, which was near at hand; or to the final judgment, when they shall hear, Go, ye cursed: whose end is to be burned;
with everlasting and unquenchable fire, in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone.

Hebreos 6:8 In-Context

6 y recayeron, sean renovados de nuevo por arrepentimiento colgando en el madero otra vez para sí mismos al Hijo de Dios, y exponiéndole a vituperio

7 Porque la tierra que embebe el agua que muchas veces vino sobre ella, y que engendra hierba a su tiempo a aquellos de los cuales es labrada, recibe bendición de Dios

8 Mas la que produce espinas y abrojos, es reprobada, y cercana de maldición, y su fin será por fuego

9 Pero de vosotros, oh amados, esperamos mejores cosas que éstas y más cercanas a la salud, aunque hablamos así

10 Porque Dios no es injusto que se olvide de vuestra obra y el trabajo de la caridad que habéis mostrado en su nombre, habiendo ayudado a los santos y ayudándoles
