Hebreos 13:13 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 13:13

Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp
Either of legal ceremonies, which are to be quitted; or of this world, which may be compared to a "camp"; for its instability, a camp not being always in one place; and for its hostility, the world being full of enemies to Christ and his people; and for the noise and fatigue of it, it being a troublesome and wearisome place to the saints, abounding with sins and wickedness; as also camps usually do; and for multitude, the men of the world being very numerous: and a man may be said to "go forth" from hence, when he professes not to belong to the world; when his affections are weaned from it; when the allurements of it do not draw him aside; when he forsakes, and suffers the loss of all, for Christ; when he withdraws from the conversation of the men of it, and breathes after another world; and to go forth from hence, "unto him", unto Christ, shows, that Christ is not to be found in the camp, in the world: he is above, in heaven, at the right hand of God; and that going out of the camp externally, or leaving the world only in a way of profession, is or no avail, without going to Christ: yet there must be a quitting of the world, in some sense, or there is no true coming to Christ, and enjoyment of him; and Christ is a full recompence for what of the world may be lost by coming to him; wherefore there is great encouragement to quit the world, and follow Christ: now to go forth to him is to believe in him; to hope in him; to love him; to make a profession of him, and follow him:

bearing his reproach;
or reproach for his sake: the reproach, which saints meet with, for the sake of Christ, and a profession of him, is called "his", because of the union there is between them, and the sympathy and fellow feeling he has with them in it; he reckons what is said and done to them as said and done to himself; and besides, there is a likeness between the reproach which Christ personally bore, and that which is cast upon his followers; and this is to be bore by them willingly, cheerfully, courageously, and patiently.

Hebreos 13:13 In-Context

11 Bajo el sistema antiguo, el sumo sacerdote llevaba la sangre de los animales al Lugar Santo como sacrificio por el pecado, y los cuerpos de esos animales se quemaban fuera del campamento.

12 De igual manera, Jesús sufrió y murió fuera de las puertas de la ciudad para hacer santo a su pueblo mediante su propia sangre.

13 Entonces salgamos al encuentro de Jesús, fuera del campamento, y llevemos la deshonra que él llevó.

14 Pues este mundo no es nuestro hogar permanente; esperamos el hogar futuro.

15 Por lo tanto, por medio de Jesús, ofrezcamos un sacrificio continuo de alabanza a Dios, mediante el cual proclamamos nuestra lealtad a su nombre.
