Scofield's Reference Notes - Hebrews 11:39

faith The essence of faith consists in receiving what God has revealed, and may be defined as that trust in the God of the Scriptures and in Jesus Christ whom He hath sent, which receives Him as Saviour and Lord, and impels to loving obedience and good works John 1:12; James 2:14-26. The particular uses of faith give rise to its secondary definitions: (1) For salvation, faith is personal trust, apart from meritorious works, in the Lord Jesus Christ, as delivered for our offences, and raised... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Hebrews 11:1-40

Hebrews, chapter 11:Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen ( Hebrews 11:1 ).This is not so much a definition of faith as it is the declaration of what faith does.

And the evidence, that word has been translated conviction of the things not seen. I'm convicted of truths, though I may not... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 11:1-40

Hebrews 11:1 . Now faith is the substance of things hoped for. Paul uses here the same Greek word as in Hebrews 1:3, that the Son is the express image of the Father’s hypostasis, or person.

Faith is therefore the evidence of things invisible, the strong argument or demonstration. Hebrews 11:2 . By it the elders obtained a good... read more
