ヘブル人への手紙 6:19-20 JC

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:19

(19) Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul.—A beautiful image, introduced for a moment only to set forth the security of the soul, though tossed by the waves of trouble. This symbol of hope, so familiar to us in Christian art, is not mentioned in the Old Testament, but is found in Greek proverbial sayings, and (it is said) appears on ancient coins.Both sure and stedfast.—These words and the following may, indeed, form part of the figure; but more probably relate to the hope itself—a hope... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 6:20

(20) Whither the forerunner.—Rather, Whither, as forerunner, Jesus entered for us, having become High Priest after the order of Melchizedek for ever. The Jewish high priest entered the Holiest Place by himself—a representative but not a leader. Jesus has entered the true sanctuary (Hebrews 9:24) that He may give His people entrance there (Hebrews 10:19; John 14:2-3). With this renewed mention of the great high-priestly act (Hebrews 4:14), the writer returns to the words of Scripture on which he... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Hebrews 6:1-20

The First Principles of Christ Hebrews 6:1 The combination of repentance and faith meets us in the earliest proclamation of the Gospel by our Lord Himself, and it continues to sound all through the pages of the New Testament. As a man's faith is set upon God so he repents of dead works. I. How does such Faith in God Originate? Our author gives us the answer in the epithet of God which he introduces when he repeats this phrase and speaks of being 'cleansed from dead works to serve the living... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Hebrews 6:9-20

CHAPTER VI.THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF FAILURE."But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak: for God is not unrighteous to forget your work and the love which ye showed toward His name, in that ye ministered unto the saints, and still do minister. And we desire that each one of you may show the same diligence unto the fulness of hope even to the end: that ye be not sluggish, but imitators of them who through faith and patience inherit... read more

CHAPTER 6 1. Return to Judaism the crucifixion of the Son of God afresh (Hebrews 6:1-8 ) 2. Persuaded of better things: Comfort and hope (Hebrews 6:9-20 ) Hebrews 6:1-8 A solemn warning follows, addressed to these Hebrews who were halting and in danger of turning back to Judaism, and doing so would crucify the Son of God afresh. “Therefore leaving the word of the beginning of Christ, let us go on to full growth; not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God,... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Hebrews 6:19

6:19 {8} Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;(8) He compares hope to an anchor because in the same way that an anchor when cast into the bottom of the sea secures the whole ship, so hope also enters even into the very secret places of heaven. He makes mention of the sanctuary, alluding to the old tabernacle and by this returns to the comparison of the priesthood of Christ with the Levitical priesthood. read more

Geneva Study Bible - Hebrews 6:20

6:20 {9} Whither the forerunner is for us entered, [even] Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.(9) He repeats David’s words, in which all those comparisons that he mentioned before are signified, as he declares in all the next chapter. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 6:1-20

Verse 1 of this chapter is not properly translated in the Authorized Version, and it should be evident that we must never leave "the principles of the doctrine of Christ." Divine principles and sound doctrine must be unalterably the vital basis of all Christianity. But the New Translation reads rightly, "Wherefore, leaving the word of the beginning of the Christ, let us go on (to what belongs) to full growth, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God, of the... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Hebrews 6:1-20

CHRIST AND MELCHISEDEC It has already become evident to the careful reader that the author of this epistle is particularly desirous to bring out the comparison between the priesthood of Christ and that of Aaron. He approached it at the close of chapter 2 (Hebrews 2:17-18 ), and was on the point of making the comparison (Hebrews 3:1 ) when he was led into the digression about Moses (Hebrews 3:2-6 ), and then Joshua (Hebrews 3:4-11 ). But he returns to it again at the close of chapter 4 (see... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Hebrews 6:1-20

Conditions of Renewal Heb 6:4-6 1Co 11:27 , 1Co 11:29 There are some few passages of Scripture which have caused a great deal of difficulty and heartache. There are others which have kept away from the altar, yea, from the Cross itself, many a young, timid, reverent spirit. The question is whether there is any need for this? I think not. I do not know of any passage of Scripture that ought to keep any soul from God, from God's house, from God's ordinances. We are so differently constituted... read more
