The Biblical Illustrator - Hebrews 3:14

Hebrews 3:14We are made partakers of ChristPartners of ChristThere is nothing that Christ hath, but we have part of it.His wisdom, holiness, His righteousness is ours; yea, His kingdom is ours. We are heirs, yea, co-heirs with Him of His kingdom. As the man at the day of marriage says to his wife, “With all ray worldly goods I thee endow,” so the Lord Jesus endoweth us with all His goods; by reason whereof, being poor and worth nothing, we become exceeding rich. Christ is ours, death, life, the... read more

To-day is the critical moment of life. Our vital concern is with to-day. Life in to-day is an impressive feature of Biblical... read more

Hebrews 3:16Borne, when they had heard, did provokeSome but not all badI.MANY HEAR THE WORD OR VOICE OF GOD TO NO ADVANTAGE, BUT ONLY TO AGGRAVATE THEIR SIN. Their hearing renders their sin provoking unto God, and destructive to their own souls. It is, I confess, a great privilege for men to have the Word preached unto them, and to hear it (Psalms 147:19-20). But privileges are as men use them. In themselves, they are of worth, and to be prized. But unto us, they are as they are used. Hence the... read more

Hebrews 3:17-19With whom was He grievedGod’s long-sufferingNow where he saith, “With whom He was angry forty years,” we have here to learn what is the long-suffering of the Lord, who doth not straight punish the sinner, but as He endured the manners of the people of Israel forty years, so He beareth with us in all our transgressions.If thus we consider this example and such like, we are no idle hearers, but profitably exercise ourselves in His judgments; and as we ought to give Him this praise,... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 3:12

12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. Ver. 12. In departing from ] απιστια parit αποστασιαν . Infidelity is the mother of apostasy; as in Cranmer: but worse in John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland, in Queen Mary’s days, who being brought to the scaffold on Tower hill, and having promise of life if he would recant his profession, dastard like forsook his Master, and exhorted the people to the Romish religion. Which his... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 3:13

13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. Ver. 13. But exhort one another ] A special preservative from apostasy. See my Common Place of Admonition, and my treatise onMalachi 3:17; Malachi 3:17 . Lest any of you be hardened ] Continuance in sin hardeneth the heart, and gradually indisposeth it to the work of repentance. Qui non est hodie, &c. There is a deceitfulness in sin, a lie in vanity, John 2:8 .... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 3:14

14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; Ver. 14: For we are made partakers ] Christ’s consorts, co-heirs with him, Romans 8:17 . This we are in present, if we persevere to the end. The beginning of our confidence ] Gr. υποστασεως , of our subsistence, or substance, that is, of our faith,Hebrews 11:1; Hebrews 11:1 , whereby we subsist, and become sons of God, as Ambrose expounds it. The Greek signifieth the very first act of... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 3:15

15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. Ver. 15. While it is said ] sc. To you now, as it was said to them of old, Hebrews 3:7 . We must see our own names written on every precept, promise, example, &c.,Hosea 12:4; Hosea 12:4 . There God spake with us. To day if ye will hear, &c. ] The negligent spirit cries, Cras Domine, Tomorrow, Lord. In crastinum seria. But who can tell what a great bellied day may bring forth?... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 3:16

16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. Ver. 16. Howbeit not all ] Yet all fell in the wilderness save Joshua and Caleb. Good men are oft wrapped up in a common calamity. The righteous perisheth, Isaiah 57:1 , so the world thinketh; "But whether they live, they live unto the Lord, or whether they die, they die unto the Lord,"Romans 14:8; Romans 14:8 . The good grain is cut down together with the tares, but to another and to a better... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 3:17

17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? Ver. 17. Whose carcases fell ] Gr. κωλα . Whose members, joints, limbs. Cadavera a cadendo. Oh that we could make that use of their disaster, that Waldus the French merchant (father and founder of the Waldenses) did of that sad sight that befell him. For walking in the streets, and seeing one fall suddenly dead, he went home and repented of his Popish errors and profane... read more
