Hebrews 13:22

13:22 Now I urge you, brothers and sisters, ¹⁰  bear with my message of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you briefly.

¹ tn Grk “sent for service for the sake of those.”

² tn Grk “through Moses.”

³ tn Or “dull.”

⁴ tn Grk “the first tent.”

⁵ tn Grk “the worshipers, having been purified once for all, would have.”

⁶ tn Grk “that he inaugurated for us as a fresh and living way,” referring to the entrance mentioned in v. 19.

⁷ sn Through his flesh. In a bold shift the writer changes from a spatial phrase (Christ opened the way through the curtain into the inner sanctuary) to an instrumental phrase (he did this through [by means of] his flesh in his sacrifice of himself), associating the two in an allusion to the splitting of the curtain in the temple from top to bottom (Matt 27:51; Mark 15:38; Luke 23:45). Just as the curtain was split, so Christ’s body was broken for us, to give us access into God’s presence.

⁷ tn This probably refers to the righteous rule of David and others. But it could be more general and mean “did what was righteous.”

⁸ tn Grk “obtained promises,” referring to the things God promised, not to the pledges themselves.

⁸ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 2:11.
