Hebrews 12:20-22

12:20 For they could not bear what was commanded: “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned.” ¹  12:21 In fact, the scene ²  was so terrifying that Moses said, “I shudder with fear.” ³  12:22 But you have come to Mount Zion, the city ⁴  of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels, to the assembly

[12:20]  ¹ sn A quotation from Exod 19:12-13.

[12:21]  ² tn Grk “that which appeared.”

[12:21]  ³ tn Grk “I am terrified and trembling.”

[12:22]  ⁴ tn Grk “and the city”; the conjunction is omitted in translation since it seems to be functioning epexegetically – that is, explaining further what is meant by “Mount Zion.”
