Hebrews 10:26-29

10:26 For if we deliberately keep on sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins is left for us, ¹³  10:27 but only a certain fearful expectation of judgment and a fury ¹⁴  of fire that will consume God’s enemies. ¹⁵  10:28 Someone who rejected the law of Moses was put to death ¹⁶  without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. ¹⁷  10:29 How much greater punishment do you think that person deserves who has contempt for ¹⁸  the Son of God, and profanes ¹⁹  the blood of the covenant that made him holy, ²⁰  and insults the Spirit of grace?

[3:18]  ¹ tn Grk “judged.”

[3:18]  ² tn Grk “judged.”

[3:18]  ³ tn See the note on the term “one and only” in 3:16.

[3:36]  ⁴ tn Or “refuses to believe,” or “disobeys.”

[3:36]  ⁵ tn Or “anger because of evil,” or “punishment.”

[3:36]  ⁶ tn Or “resides.”

[8:36]  ⁷ tn Heb “the one sinning [against] me.” The verb חָטָא (khata’, “to sin”) forms a contrast with “find” in the previous verse, and so has its basic meaning of “failing to find, miss.” So it is talking about the one who misses wisdom, as opposed to the one who finds it.

[8:36]  ⁸ tn The Qal active participle functions verbally here. The word stresses both social and physical harm and violence.

[8:36]  ⁹ tn Heb “his soul.”

[8:36]  ¹⁰ tn The basic idea of the verb שָׂנֵא (sane’, “to hate”) is that of rejection. Its antonym is also used in the line, “love,” which has the idea of choosing. So not choosing (i.e., hating) wisdom amounts to choosing (i.e., loving) death.

[4:12]  ¹¹ tn Here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") has been translated as a generic noun (“people”).

[4:12]  ¹² sn Must be saved. The term used here (δεῖ, dei, “it is necessary”) reflects the necessity set up by God’s directive plan.

[10:26]  ¹³ tn Grk “is left,” with “for us” implied by the first half of the verse.

[10:27]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “zeal,” recalling God’s jealous protection of his holiness and honor (cf. Exod 20:5).
